David Caruso bullies CSI Miami set!

David Caruso’s ’dramatic’ acting is a trade mark of the hit CBS show, CSI: Miami. On-set sources say though his ego is nearly out of control as he now rewrites every scene he’s in, and instructs the director on how to do his job. According to a Defamer.com source,

“I actually worked there for two years and saw first-hand almost 50 episodes being filmed. Caruso is without a doubt, the most tortured, saddest man-child/ actor I’ve ever seen in over 15 years of movie and tv-making. Everything you have heard is true, but worse”[Caruso] can’t walk and talk at the same time — you should see him on stairs. He requires dozens of takes for simplest line-readings and can’t even put his CSI gloves on on-camera. He will cuss uncontrollably, often in front of a child actor, and blame everyone but himself for his inability to act.”

The on-set spy continued, “He rewrites every scene he is in, so he is totally to blame for the hackneyed one-liners. He will take anything the writers give him and destroy it. And the sunglasses bit is all his, a truly innovative contribution to his character. But as he said to us many times, ‘What should I do? I am a grown man with red hair.’ “We used to call the Diet Coke his ‘acting juice’ and he once asked the director of photography to make it seem like he was flying to the crime scene, explaining that [his character] Horatio is actually a mythical superhero. For real.”

Another on-set spy added: “Caruso asks when, in the scene, there will be a close-up of the sunglasses — in every scene.”

Caruso’s rep declined to comment.

We don’t begrudge a “star” the chance to indulge themselves and their adoring audience with a trademark move or catchphrase, but nothing about David Caruso seems to indicates to us that he’s the type of guy who is in on the joke. Then again he may be the best thing on CSI: Miami, given many of the cast are acting challenged.
