Evan Ross is a Mama's Boy

DIANA ROSS' actor son EVAN phoned home in tears from the set of new movie LIFE IS HOT IN CRACKTOWN - because playing a violent hoodlum left him exhausted and upset.Ross' character Romeo is a thuggish gangster in the gritty new film, and insists he needed support to get through the project. He explains, "First I called Terrence Howard, who I worked with in Pride, and asked him what he thought, and he told me to follow my instincts with the role, but I didn't grow up with gangster qualities. "There is a scene at the end of the movie where I'm yelling and we did the scene so many times. I had to go to the trailer for a second because I couldn't stop crying and I didn't feel like I could do it again. "I left that day and I called my mom because I live alone now and I don't see her all the time, so I can't just go home. I called her and I told her I was riled up and I needed to calm myself for a second." And the sage-like soul star gave him advice that he'll always hold dear: "She was like, 'Go outside and find light. Go to where the sun is and just breathe.' She gets worried about me when I get into that dark place."

"...didn't grow up with gangster qualities" ???? It's called "acting" for a reason. Perhaps Evan should find another line of work.

what a PUNK. Ms Ross should have had real MEN around to help raise this boy. Why does he work anyway. He has a trust fund. He is taking a job from a young man that really needs a career. Evan go home to mama.

@ TC and that's the awful part. Women that wont allow their sons to be men.

Not everyone that has issues turn to booze or drugs.

Mybe the rumors are true and he is Michael Jackson's son. That would explain a lot about his demeanor.

Stop people! We all need support from time to time, either a friend, girl friend, lover, wife, husband, WTF? What better support than of a mother? A mother who have your best interest of heart and one who will love and advice you unconditionally...

awww! a cutie

But, tell me this, Where is his brother? was he the one that would dance and sing like Michael Jackson? I think, the brother was somewhat physically impaired.

You sad assed nonworking, uneducated, hating, cruel, weak and silly Negroes need to shut the F up! What would you know about a Mama's or Daddy's boy? Apparently, you don't have either mother or father for good role models or you wouldn't be so effed up as a group of embarrassing people.

Instead of rich people or their children always thinking money can cure all ills, I would say Evan has grown up in a very loving and supportive household with a dynamite Mom(Ms. Ross). How many mistakes could we all have avoided if we really felt we could talk to our parents at any age about anything. So called professional help is just that, professional, not personal and everyone, man, woman, girl or boy needs real hue-man contact at sometime, "being hard and stubborn doesn't make you a man or woman but inflexable in character", and I said that it's no famous quote.
