Kiefer Sutherland drunk. Again.
Kiefer Sutherland was flat on his back on the floor of a hotel lobby after a marathon drinking session with pals. He and his band ordered in tray after tray of whisky, beer, gin and wine at London's trendy Borderline club and ended up at Strand Palace Hotel in the West End.
At 2am bar staff refused to serve any more alcohol. Undaunted, Kiefer persuaded management to let them loose in the lobby. He ordered yet more booze on room service, then staggered around the entrance hall, entertaining pals with a bizarre, flailing breakdancing routine. He then charged into a 12ft Christmas tree, sending it crashing to the floor. "I hate that f***ing Christmas tree," he declared. "The tree HAS to come down." The party was finally called off at 5.30am by hotel security - when guests starting arriving for breakfast.
Ah, nothing says Christmas quite like talking shit to the Christmas tree. And then attacking it. I'd say this was an aberration for Kiefer, but it's not. If booze was hair, he'd be the sasquatch.
Thanks to Katrina for the tip.

I got a boxer puppy for Christmas and named it Tony Almeida. Yesterday she took down the Christmas tree, just like Keifer, and made off with candy canes and the Christmas angel. Coincidence?
Tony Almeida's page can be seen here:

This season on 24:
Agent Jack Bauer takes on his most terrifying nemesis yet- Special Agent Douglas Fir. Incredibly tall, extremely prickly, and really green as long as he's watered every other day or so. Keifer Sutherland, keeping America safe from viscious evergreens.

Hell, it'd take 4 or 5 episodes of 24 to tell this tale of debauchery. However, it has been a while since I heard a good "drunken jackass attacking inanimate object" story, so this was good. High five, Kiefer Sutherland. Someday you'll realize you're too old for this stuff.

How could he go from "The Lost Boys" to this?!

Papa - That has to be the funniest thing I've ever read on here....

Nothing wrong with that.

...Hahahahah, right on Kiefer! Maybe he thinks he's a rockstar? This is the kind of behavior I want from celebrities...for F's sakes, so many celebrities move to the midwest to be like "normal" people or spend their time in intellectual pursuits and shopping at Whole Foods...Once in a while its good to know they are taking advantadge of the fact that they don't always have to live by the rules, so that a plebe like me can live vicariously. People didn't think it was AT ALL funny when I rushed the tree...see, he can do it, and we can laugh...Go Kiefer!

Was the "flailing breakdancing routine" really him just CRUMPIN' ?? Because then it would be cool.

Kiefer is just so adorable I think we should all just forgive him. I would have clapped for his breakdance routine, helped undecorate the downed tree, helped him to the bathroom to yack and/or pee and then tucked him in to bed. After making sure he was out like a light, I would have helped myself to the contents of his wallet, 3 pairs of his undies and his SAG card. But hey, that's just the kind of gal I am. Plus, I've always wanted my very own SAG card.

The next season of 24 can be called "It's Five O'Clock Somewhere" and Bauer can just fly around from time zone to time zone drinking at happy hour. After all these shitty days he deserves 24hrs of straight partying.
Why is this even news? It's basically like partying with fratguys, except Kiefer probably won't have to skip out on the bill or call Mom and Dad for a higher credit card limit at 2:00am.

Would anyone give a shite about this guy if (1) his dad wasn't some famous actor from 100 years ago and (2) he wasn't engaged to Julia Roberts in the 80's and dumped at the alter or (3) his name didn't rhyme with "REEFER" and it was just Pete or Morton.
P.S. Where is Ralph Macchio these days? See. Now if his name was KIEFER Macchio, we'd care... right?
No?
Oh.

Thank you all my superficial pals - I love learning new words that I may now use in my engineering career...CRUMPIN!! God I love you guys... And BTW, all you have to do is go to Fred Segal and you can see Keifer shopping while intoxicated...it's just what he is...an alcoholic.

It's Kiefer Sutherland, he can do whatever the fuck he wants.
Kick homeless people? Indeed.
Punch nuns in the face? Of course!
Set kids on fire? Totally!!
Have sex with 12 years old? Why the fuck not???

Why is his upper lip so long? He has Grinch mouth. Maybe this explains the tree slandering.
15. Posted by Sheva on January 4, 2006 02:43 PM
Thought he was just another kid growing up in the famous shadow of a parent in the biz. Saw 24 last year, ande you know what? Anyone who has a hand in putting together a show like that and getting it on TV is entitled to get twisted and fight inanimate objects.
It's the break dancing I object to.
Rock on Kiefer, rock on.

Weird, cause a guy in my husband's band did almost the exact same thing to his xmas tree too, except his xmas tree was wearing a sportcoat, sunglasses, and a tophat.

Who are you working for, CheekyChops?
18. Posted by bloodyvictim on January 4, 2006 03:29 PM

19. Posted by PinkRose on January 4, 2006 03:37 PM
Kiefer RULES!! He's such a hottie. I'd hit it.
20. Posted by hafaball on January 4, 2006 05:10 PM

He's hilarious!

thats awesome.. a fight with a christmas tree..to be a fly on the wall i would have peed my fly pants
23. Posted by andrewthezeppo on January 4, 2006 06:27 PM
am I the only one who noticed the word "band" in that post? He's in a band? Come on that alone has got to be funnier than knocking down a Christmas tree
24. Posted by derekd on January 4, 2006 06:52 PM
So all that time he played an asshole in the movies it wasn't much of a stretch for him? What a surprise!
25. Posted by aims_25 on January 4, 2006 07:15 PM
He is so invited to my next party!! (And don't worry Kiefer, the Chrismtas Tree is down already.)

I'm reminded of my older brother, who looks alarmingly like Keifer Sutherland. In the 70's, he told his girlfriend that he was going to have his own show airing right after Donny and Marie, then convulsed around the dance floor like Joe Cocker. She married him to make someone else jealous.

Hes stil not over Julia Roberts. She messed this guy up bad. Alcohol antics at his age arent even slightly cool no matter how good you look. LOSER!!
28. Posted by HelloTimeBomb on January 5, 2006 02:46 AM
This sounds like a regular Saturday night's activities to me. He sounds like he'd be fun to hang out with!! haha.. And he does seem to entertain me every week on 24. Sexy *and* talented...
And who doesn't like The Lost Boys?? Or even Flatliners? Give him some credit. I don't think 24 is such a hit because of ol' Donald.

Keifer was good in one of my favorite movies -- Dark City. So, I pretty much forgive him for this. (I've already forgiven him for the last few seasons of 24.

Seven hours? What the hell kind of bender is that? It's hardly "marathon".

I have had many a great night out at the Borderline (which BTW is a backstreet rock club, and thankfully not 'trendy'), and many of them have ended very messily - but nothing as debauched as this - well done to you Kiefer. I hope I see him next time. Maybe I will dress up as foliage.

Now thats what I call substance abuse! Big up's to Kiefer for keeping it real. Lohan and all those other so called partiers could learn a thing or two from my man K.S. The only way this could have been better was if Charlie Sheen and Christian Slater were with him biting cops and grabbing ass and shit.
word.
