Russell Crowe's Temper Comes From Low Self Esteem....
Actor Russell Crowe would lose his temper when confronted by fans because of his low self esteem.The Oscar-winning actor says his negative behaviour stems from feeling unworthy of the attention his fame has brought him.He says, "I think I've got better over the years with just being OK with all that. Any negativity I had with it stems from self-worth issues."I don't rate myself or consider myself to be worthy of that sort of thing.So when people approach me my reaction is sometimes negative. But I'm a lot calmer with it now."The Gladiator star, who was convicted of second degree assault for throwing a telephone at a hotel concierge in June 2005, adds, "(The public) don't see the crusty reality. They see some sort of sparkling version, and that's what they want to have contact with. I'm a lot easier about all that sort of stuff now.".
