BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. - Antipodean actor Russell Crowe almost stole the show with his absence from the Golden Globe awards on Sunday - using his best actor win to send a message on climate change’s role in devastating Australian bushfires.
When New Zealand-born Crowe was announced the winner of a best actor award, presenter Jennifer Aniston told the audience he was at home in Australia “protecting his family from the devastating bushfires.” Crowe’s property at Nana Glen, about 550 km north of Sydney, was not believed to be in any immediate danger on Monday. In November, bushfire destroyed two buildings and scorched a chapel on the actor’s property.
