We all know Kevin Spacey as Keyser Soze in The Usual Suspects (whoops, spoiler), the poor jerk who got shot in the head at the end of American Beauty (sorry, spoiler again), and Lex Luthor in Kevin Spacey’s Hairpiece Takes a Vacation. But now he’s taking on a new role: Arrogance McMegadouche in Don’t You Know Who I Am?

According to Radar Online:

“Mr. Spacey, you got me fired from my job!” In an exclusive interview with RadarOnline.com, waiter Peter Turner said that’s what happened when he told Kevin Spacey he wasn’t allowed to smoke in a restaurant.

“You’re an aggressive prick,” Turner said the Oscar winning actor Kevin Spacey told him after he asked him to stop smoking three times in the high-end restaurant Clarke Cooke House in Newport, Rhode Island in late June. When Spacey’s dinner companions lit up their cigarettes Turner was instructed by his boss to tell the group to stop smoking, since it was a violation of state law… He said he made a joke to the smokers, saying: “You’re not allowed to smoke in here unless you’re on fire,” but the actor’s anger exploded. “I need you to get the f*** away from my table,” Spacey snarled to the waiter.

Turner was fired a few days later. Doesn’t he know that laws are only for people he hasn’t seen in the movies?

Looks like you can reach @KevinSpacey on Twitter. Why not drop him a line and ask why he got a working man fired for trying to follow the law? As he puts it in his Twitter bio, he’s a “former shoe salesman now making a go at film and theater.” So he knows what it’s like, just trying to make ends meet. How would he have felt if some rich, overprivileged creep had hassled him on the job and gotten him fired? He might think the guy was a little too aggressive, huh?

Remember, Kevin: It’s nice to be important, but it’s more important to be nice. Also, you stink.

Update: Ed Driscoll has another example of Spacey’s phony “I’m just a workin’ guy made good” crap.
