This week's award goes to none other than Mr. Woody Harrelson, Hollywood leading man, television's favorite bartender, crazy pothead, hippie vegan, and zombie fighter.
Woody is probably best known for his role as Woody Boyd on the hit sitcom 'Cheers.' He was nominated for five Emmy awards, winning once in 1989. He later broke into feature films with 'White Men Can't Jump' and 'Money Train', co-starring with convicted felon Wesley Snipes. Woody became an A-lister and starred in films like 'Indecent Proposal', 'Natural Born Killers', 'Kingpin' , and 'The People vs. Larry Flynt.'
But it's Mr. Harrelson's off-camera exploits that have earned him this week's honor. Because frankly, Woody Harrelson doesn't give a shit.
In 1983, he was arrested for disorderly conduct for dancing in the street and disrupting traffic. He would later leap out of his police transport, laughing maniacally, and proceed to punch one of the arresting officers in the face, knocking him to the ground.
He is a self-proclaimed former sex addict, was once arrested for planting hemp seeds in Kentucky - a defiant act that challenged the state's marijuana laws, and even climbed the Golden Gate Bridge to protest a lumber conglomerate.
But it's Harrelson's most recent brazen act that has vaulted him into the upper echelon of WWKRD royalty. Earlier this year, at La Guardia Airport, Harrelson and his daughter were confronted by a rogue paparazzo, who apparently caught Woody at the wrong time.
Harrelson allegedly pushed the cameraman in the face and damaged his camera, leading to a scuffle that was captured on video.
And while most men would vehemently deny any wrongdoing, Harrelson admitted that he was simply trying to serve the greater good and prevent catastrophic events from occurring.
"I wrapped a movie called 'Zombieland', in which I was constantly under attack by zombies...with my daughter at the airport I was startled by a paparazzo, who I quite understandably mistook for a zombie."
That, my friends, is damage control at its absolute finest.
We here at WWKRD salute you, Woody Harrelson, for your contributions to cinema on-camera, and to zombie-prevention off of it.
