Fashion Week: Vincent Gallo Will Track You Down
Chris Mohney
September 12, 2008
So yes, our videographer Liz Glover has a certain history with Vincent Gallo. And though things began civilly enough, things degenerated when -- all in good fun! -- Liz made a crack about Gallo's leather jacket, asking if it was in fact pleather. Let the record reflect we are in no way insinuating that Vincent Gallo would wear a pleather jacket! Quite the opposite in fact. Nevertheless, the jibe inspired Gallo's ire: "If you print that [Ed. note: 'print'?], I will track you down and make you wish you had never been born." Harsh! But Liz's daddy was a Green Beret, so she's not afeared. Hit the jump to relish the tender exchange.
It should be duly noted—Liz, more out of karmic than physical anxiety, only agreed to show the clip if she could remove the actual “pleather” remark, since she told Gallo she’d cut it. And in fact I had to browbeat her into showing the clip at all. Therefore, please direct all anti-borning angst care of this website, not to Ms. Glover, who’s far tougher anyway.

Someone’s a little insecure. Why couldn’t he just throw a joke back at her and make fun of her outfit or something instead of being such a fucking baby?
It is so epic that you guys ran that. Genius!

“I will track you down and make you wish you had never been born”
Umm, is this the kind of threat you can casually make? You certainly can’t say that kind of thing to any elected official or police officer.

What in the fuck are you fuckin bitches laughing at? You think this shit is pleather? Huh? You think that’s funny? You think my jacket’s fake, so what, that would make me fake, too? Is that what your saying? Cause it’s not. And I’ll fucking destroy you to prove it, alright?!? Capice motherfucker?

Ya know, it really IS an ugly jacket regardless if it’s pleather, leather or chicken bi-product. Seriously dude..simmer down! I would hate to think the next video I see is of that lovely (and funny....) gal kicking your butt all over the place....

I can’t say I’m surprised; i is Vincent Gallo we’re talking about here. He’s not exactly known for being a pillar of stability.

“You had to be mean” was a tactful way to reflect her catty attitude. She’s an idiot.

Good for Mr Gallo
Just because she is woman she can get away with be insulting??
His threat was half hearted but of course its get blown out of proportion by you guys
How convenient it is that we don’t get to see and hear Liz insult Mr. Gallo
Liz i think first and foremost you should be ashamed of yourself. Both parties are at fault here but Liz is the perpetrator.
And to the person that posted as Vincent Gallo above, you comment is obviously filled with undertones of ethnic prejudice.

Somebody’s a little sensitive…
I’m a little annoyed that, “you had to be mean, you had to be mean, you had to be mean” is still ringing in my ears.
