Why is everyone in the United States mad at Chris Pratt?

Even an $80 million actor like Chris Pratt can make a misstep. A scandal? No, on the contrary, he married Katherine, daughter of Arnold Schwarzenegger (second marriage), and is extremely devoted to her, to her faith and to every possible positive value that seems to exist on earth. He is one of Marvel's heroes Guardians of the Galaxygave voice to Super Mario in the film and now he will do it in the new cartoon Garfield: A Tasty Mission.

He is the action hero of Terminal List (by Prime Video, presented at the Monte-Carlo TV Festival). It really seems like nothing is wrong. But the American public does not forget, on the contrary, they are looking for a small slip to ridicule even the champions of Hollywood.

In this case the choice of Chris Pratt and his wife is private but the public did not like it. The two bought a story villa in Brentwood, California (worth 12 and a half million), known in the area as the Zimmerman House because it was completed in 1950 by star architect Craig Ellwood.

In short, the idea should be brilliant, considering the value of the property. But no. Chris and Katherine want to transform it into a farm, unleashing the idea of ​​the neighborhood but also that of the architect's family.

If we wanted to lighten the drama, the scene from the saga of Fifty Shades in which the architect wants to knock down the historic home just bought by Mister Gray to make it a mega villa with self-cleaning glass and similar technologies that mere mortals can't even understand.

The mansion sits across the street from two properties owned by Pratt's mother-in-law, Maria Shriver, which is why it was particularly practical and familiar to him and Katherine.

Yet this is not the case because neither of the two times in which the building was sold did it undergo any changes because it was considered one of the architect's first works.

The couple did not respond either on social media or to the press but the architect's daughter Erin Ellwood gave an interview to Los Angeles Times defining the house as a time capsule and perhaps before its destruction it would have deserved a commemoration, a tour or something else.

However, this does not mean that a compromise cannot be found in considering it a historic building. «I am not resentful – commented the artist's daughter – I understand the love for the family, the desire to live close to the mother or mother-in-law. I also understand being a multi-millionaire and wanting to build exactly the way I want close to my family. Really, I get it. But unfortunately, that includes demolishing something else.”

Until now, Hollywood has joked about who Chris was the sexiest, best groomed, most muscular, etc. This story brought out covers with the title Worst Chris in Hollywood because the work on the villa is in progress and many turn up their noses at the choice which is anything but eco-sustainable, as well as artistically questionable. It seems that it will be a modern villa, with a swimming pool and all kinds of comforts created by architect Ken Ungar. But also traditional, who knows how…
