Oscar winning actor Russell Crowe supposedly asked an Australian journalist to write positively about his band, 30 Odd Foot Of Grunts, in a bid to change negative public opinions.

According to contactmusic.com, journalist Jack Marx was not impressed with the band 30 Odd Foot Of Grunts. He says: "I had expected a lumpen, tuneless racket. What I heard was something far less remarkable."

Even though Marx was not a fan he agreed to prop up the group but then was dropped by Crowe who didn't think the profile was positive enough.
Crowe has now gone on to form a new band - The Ordinary Fear of God.
