John Legend -- Hope It Gives You Hell, Boy

John Legend's major acting career begins and ends with "Soul Men" -- and if he was lookin' to expand his resume, dissing one of the biggest director's around probably wasn't the best way to do it.

Guillermo del Toro & John Legend: Click to watch
John totally blew off "Hellboy" and upcoming "Hobbit" helmer Guillermo del Toro yesterday at JFK.

It's hilarious -- as long as you're not Guillermo.

16. Get over yourself TMZ, some people have better things to do at an airport than play CLOWN for the pap. The guy just got off the plane and was obviously in a rush. That's why that guy from twilight just keeps his head down and a hound over his head when he sees you guys coming. Some times people just aren't in the mood.

#13-really John Legend is a racist? You know this how? And unlike the no-talent no-claim to fame douche-bags that TMZ likes to follow, John Legend IS actually talented. BOTH as a singer and on the piano. You sound like an ignorant S.O.B., check your FACTS before you start mouthing off on something you know NOTHING about. What a tool!

17. #15 notthatintoyou

I noticed you called out #13 on the talent part of their comments but not on the more factual "arrogant black racist" portion. At least you know which battles to pick.

Wow, he can sing AND play piano!?!?!?!?! So can half the people that try out of American Idol you ignorant POS. I suggest you check your own facts and get them straight before passing judgement onto others and looking foolish. And for the record, Legend does suck!!!!

20. RESPONSE TO::

15. Unbelievable - but this is typical behavior for blacks. I can guarantee you he spoke to everyother RANDOM black he came in contact with that day like they were old friends. Must be a black thing. I bet even the black savior OBAMA get hollered at all day long by the random fast food employees in which he comes in contact. Hey my DOG, what's my my BROTHER or what up my NGR!

This is so sad that youcant find anything right in yourlife to take yourmind off of others'. I think your envious that ur not spoken to as much as you'd like. could your looks or personality be the reason you are invisible to people YOU come in contact with? And it shows your education or lack of by associating every black person with this mutt/ who cares what race he is, he juss an ahole period and im not black just smarter than you. David Carradine dying by having kinky sex doesnt mean all white men like lil Taii girlsdoes it? and as for Obama.... all i have to say is keeping paying your taxes and sales taxes on your fastfood because he'll use it as he sees fit (only ignorance can beat ignorance sometimes so..) haha he's president so learn your place or move

21. What a little prick! John swears he some big shot! He's probably just pissed that Guillermo del Toro as more talent!

22. God you people are so freaking stupid, it's obvious he's in a rush, and he was following the girl that was in front of him. He doesn't have to stop for anybody he's a grown ass man.. There was nothing racist, arrogant, or dismissible about this... that's America for you.

And regardless John's talent... if you're going to hate... do it right
And that analogy about American Idol was terrible. People have different styles and different talents. This guy can take any song, and turn it into a piano classic.
