BRODY STRUGGLES WITH SMOKING ROLES
Oscar winner ADRIEN BRODY is an odd choice to front the latest issue of C igar Aficionado magazine because he quit smoking a decade ago.
The Pianist star was asked to pose with a cigar for the photoshoot acco mpanying his new interview but he refused to puff away for fear it would re-spark his bad habit.
He says, "I like them, but if I have one, I’m afraid it would lead me t o start smoking cigarettes again. I got hooked on cigarettes making a mov ie when I was 19. I’d played around with them before, but that movie hook ed me.
"I quit 10 years ago. I smoke cigarettes in roles all the time and it’s very challenging. I’ll tell you, it’s very comfortable to have a cigar i n my hand. I was in St. Petersburg recently and everyone was smoking Cohi bas. And I love that smell."
