A Tattoo Tribute to Farley

Adorable actor Andrew Caldwell looks like a mini-Chris Farley, so it's no surprise that "The Transformers" star is a leeee-tle obsessed with the late great "Saturday Night Live" star.

"For everyone that says I act and look like Chris Farley, it's the biggest compliment I could ever get," gushed Caldwell to Chris Yandek of TheSportsInterview.com. He's such a fan, in fact, Caldwell revealed, "I was doing a movie in New Orleans and I got a tattoo down in New Orleans, and my tattoo says 'a van down by the river' on my back," a reference, of course, to one of Farley's infamous SNL skits. "You are the first person I told that to. I haven't even told my parents yet. They'll be happy to hear it." joked Caldwell, who is three days shy of his 18th birthday.

17. Oh come on! Some of you people are so mean. Give the kid a break. Let him live his life and you live yours. So what if he's fat/blonde/likes Chris Farley (who, despite his lifestyle, was an AMAZING actor)? Seriously! I am completely disgusted at the attitude here. If you don't like/approve of him or what he's doing with his life, ignore it. People so closed minded are the same people who started slavery and the holocaust. Think about that.

18. Chris Farley was human. I can't think of one human who doesn't have some sort of problem at some time in their life. Can you honestly sit here and judge a dead man? We all love to pick apart another person because we are safely sitting here in all of our unseen glory.
I've been drunk.
I've tried drugs.
I've eaten too much, partied too hard, and I've been obnoxious.
I'm just lucky that I lived long enough to make it through those times and have come out on the other side of youth with heart.
This kid got a tattoo and he's picked apart?
Bet there's more than one of you with some sort of inked skin.
Me too.
You do what you want kid, it's all good. Chris was funny that's why he was famous.
He just took the fast train to a bitter end. Make sure you watch the road signs.
Love,
Old Nana

19. The only resemblance to Farley is the fat! Remember: Farley was a fat slob and drug addict. This kid is young and too stupid to realize that this is NOT a person that you want as a role model!

20. Because he is fat does not make him a Chris Farley look alike. I don't see the resemblance at all!
Some people will believe what ever they like to hear.
So now in order to keep up the ruse he has to remain fat and unhealthy.

24. He's CUTE and it's a cute story, but shame on you TMZ for turning this boy over to these nasty haters on here.

He does resemble Chris Farley! I wish him much better fate than his hero.

26. I thought it was Perez Hilton.

27. Chris Farley was a wonderful comedian. However, he was no role model. This young man needs his parents to 'set him straight'. Looking like someone and being able to make people laugh is one thing. But Farley's obsession personality is nothing to emulate.

28. Dear TMZ,

I apologize for abusing your site to lash out against grownups with childish insults. I now realize how immature my behavior has been and I am truly sorry. I am back on my meds and my mom and dad said I should aplogize.

I promised my parents to seek help for my alcohol problem, too.

Sincerely,

Todd

30. His parents should be overjoyed that he's now a tattooed fat slob.
