The Top Gun star who crashed to earth: CHRISTOPHER STEVENS on Val Kilmer’s ‘psychotic’ side

Published

on

The polite word is ‘perfectionist’ but most people in Hollywood simply called Val Kilmer a pain in the backside.

Kilmer, who has died aged 65 from pneumonia, following a painful battle with cancer, starred in a long list of blockbusters – including Top Gun opposite Tom Cruise, and Oliver Stone’s psychedelic rock biopic The Doors, as singer Jim Morrison.

Kilmer’s list of megastar girlfriends was even longer, among them Cher, Cindy Crawford, Daryl Hannah and Angelina Jolie, as well as his wife, British actress Joanne Whalley.
But he is most likely to be remembered for his truculence, vanity and impossible sense of entitlement – extraordinary even by the standards of an industry fuelled by narcissism.

Shock. Silence. Fear. The NFL world froze as Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes collapsed on the field, a reported torn ACL ending a crushing playoff loss. The stadium’s roar died in an instant. Chiefs Kingdom—and the entire league—was left gasping, watching a leader, a warrior, one of football’s fiercest competitors, fall. Hours later, Mahomes spoke. Short. Sharp. Unshakable: “God’s plan is bigger than this moment. I appreciate all the love. I’ll attack this recovery the same way I attack everything—with faith, focus, and determination.” The words cut through the shock, a beacon of calm amid chaos. Social media exploded—teammates, former players, coaches, fans—all rallying, praying, reminding the world: setbacks do not define greatness; resilience does. Inside the locker room, silence gave way to unity. A team bound by one goal: fight for their quarterback. The season hangs in the balance, but one truth remains undeniable—Patrick Mahomes may be down, but he is far from finished.
