Gerard Butler: Ischia Festival's Actor of the Year!

Gerard Butler proudly shows off his Actor of the Year Award during day two of the Ischia Film Festival on Monday (July 11) in Ischia, Italy.

The 41-year-old Scottish actor was honored during the Gasamicciola Gala Dinner and Award ceremony, which was also attended by Eli Roth, model Karolina Kurkova, and director Kenny Ortega.

The night before, Gerard suited up for the opening dinner of the annual film festival.

Gerard received Ischia’s Special Fashion Award, the festival’s Best New Actor accolade, in 2004 for his work on The Phantom of the Opera.

Gerry, I’m happy for you. Looking good too!

# 2

Picture five has a beautiful smile on his face. Alan and David are with him.

Aww congrats Mr. Butler on your award, still not quite sure what it’s for but well done anyway.

Looking at these pics and some others on Getty, his long pinky nail has gone. I guess between now and yesterday GB gave up his ‘coke habit’.

Congratulations with all my heart! Be happy Gerard!

He looks wonderful and way more rested tonight than last night. Bravo Gerry! You deserve this and more.

Congratulations Mr. Butler, may your future choices and roles only get better…perhaps this is the beginning of a rewarding awards season.

@niknoks: Thanks Nik, I just don’t want to believe that of him. He is not stupid and he would have so much to lose.

@lolita:

I thought it was a silly thing to suggest, like I said before there could be any reason or no reason at all for the slightly longer nail. He bites his nails for one, he may have just not got round to his pinky in that previous photo. Yet certain people automatically jump to coke use, a massive stretch and more than a little sensationalist.

Congratulations, Gerard! Wish you to get an Oscar this year! You’re the best actor! Keep fighting!

CONSOLATION PRIZE CUZ BUTTFUKK WAS THE ONLY TWATT THAT WOULD SHOW UP AND ACCEPT THE AWARD
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

whats he holding? a se/x toy?

I’m so glad for him but I still don’t think he looks happy. There’s just something…I dunno. He has such a forced smile in this pic http://cdn.buzznet.com/media/jj1/2011/07/butler-ischia/gerard-butler-ischia-day-2-03.jpg. It never reaches his eyes.

Umm, who?

He certainly looks happier in these photos.Maybe it’s because he’s now heading home to Scotland?.

Another day – another SHINY, LAM`E zoot suit.
Who dresses him? Al Jarreau???

hhhahaah his people forced him to show up for this FARCICAL joke of an acheivement that Lindsay Lohan could have won (its a joke). He is probaby so excited to get back to LA and NY where his hoez are.
sigh poor gerard!

That suit doesn’t suit him but nothing law suit worthy.

Ugh people of Irish and Welsh descent do not need to tan ever –
They age so fast compared to other caucasoid people.
The sun does them no favors – the women with leather skin and gross body freckles look old and rugged in the face.
I am so happy I am Greek and naturally have coloring that tans easy if I wanted, and no I did not get ‘Greek Hips’ – I lucked out, and I’m tall too.

@Dorothy:
How do you know he’s going to Scotland? Just wondering :)

@The Noise In The Walls:
Why is a seahorse ‘appropo?’
Because the males get pregnant –
And Gerard looks pregnant anytime he’s not working??
???

@Mee:
That’s the thing. No one on this board actually knows anything.

@Mee:

I believe he said he was going back to Scotland during the Dutch interview he did a couple of weeks back.

I hate you for making me laugh.
