Val Kilmer Unleashed His Thirst For Cate Blanchett In 2017’s Wildest Tweets

Cate Blanchett is many things: two-time Academy Award winner, ambassador for the UN Refugee Agency, living Australian legend, and apparent subject of Val Kilmer’s deepest, kookiest thoughts.

In a string of tweets stretching from Saturday, the former Batman and Iceman all but crowned himself Thirstman with this bizarre, non sequitur announcement.

Once I flew all the way to Australia just to talk to Cate Blanchett. Her husband met me first. Or, instead, I guess, to be accurate. pic.twitter.com/xSoYxRi0jh

And recently I’ve had 2 dreams with #CateBlanchett in them. Her husband wasn’t in either of them.

The weirdness didn’t end with a photo that seems like it took Kilmer by surprise and an odd self-own, oh no. The bloke went ahead and retweeted this little gift, apparently after searching through posts with the Cate Blanchett hashtag.

#CateBlanchett for #WCW ??? #ItsAlwaysYes ???????

A fair few hours later, the tweets continued with recollections of the time he did meet her – and her supernatural shovel-handling abilities.

She’s just as amazing in person. Some super stars aren’t-Some superstars don’t do a thing to ya in person-Cate is so real it’s almost unreal

Once I did a cameo just to hang w/ #cateblanchett who pickd up a shovel in our sc. I was so dazzled by HOW she picked it up I forgot my line

We weren’t aware it was possible to lose track of space and time by merely watching a vaunted actress heft some gardening tools, but hey.

Kilmer then basically gave up the pretence of idle reminiscence with this worshipful tweet. We’ll leave it up to you to visualise his face as he sent this one off.

I mean even if she couldnt act you know what I mean? pic.twitter.com/xlcaCTT1QI

It was at this point that a few followers asked what the hell was up with his blatant pining. El Kilmerino saw it fit to defend his decisions, and friends, it’s a wild read.

@Ruth_Less_Lady nothing in the least creepy about loving someone. What kind of world do you come from?

— Val Kilmer (@valkilmer) March 25, 2017

@Ruth_Less_Lady she’s had to deal with her beauty and attraction and fame for 25 years. You think they are Quakers or something?

@ValKilmerFans @Ruth_Less_Lady thank you @ValKilmerFans cause I love that she’s happily married and is a great mom. Why wouldn’t I?

We think it’s worth mentioning that Kilmer interspersed all of this adulation with photos of him at the World Trade Center memorial. Because why not.

Blanchett hasn’t publicly responded to the barrage, and we wouldn’t really expect her to. While we wait for the bona fide queen of Australian stage and screen to formulate some kind of coherent reply to… that, we’re just going to dig even deeper into Kilmer’s compelling social media presence.

Wish us luck, pals.

Once 50 Cent gave me a red muscle car because I loved my 69 GTO. Inside th trunk said #GUNIT and was FILLED w/amps and subwoofers. I wept.
