What do you do when Hilary Swank autographs your body?

Hilary Swank got her star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame today, and after giving a humble acceptance speech (trailer parks... rolls of quarters... following your dreams... biscuits and gravy), she did something unusual – she acknowledged the crowd and signed autographs. I go to a lot of these ceremonies and, trust me, rarely do the stars get close to the weirdo Hollywood crowd.

Bet you didn't know Viggo Mortensen's off-screen talent.

Perhaps best known for the role of Aragorn in the Lord of the Rings films, Viggo Mortensen’s talents go far beyond just being an actor. He is also an accomplished painter and photographer. He has had a number of exhibitions of his work throughout the world. The image posted here is “Ride 26” by Viggo Mortensen. This image was one of the pieces in his 2002 exhibition at Robert Mann Gallery. He has published several books of his art and photography.
