_The Austrian native drew laughter from a star-studded audience in an interview wherein he suggested that he had once make money doing the degrading task.

However, a representative for Schwarzenegger denied the allegations, asserting that the 62-year-old governor of California had been joking, the Telegraph reported.

The spokesman insisted that Schwarzenegger was merely speaking hypothetically, naming the job – which involves sexually arousing male porn stars prior to a performance – as the worst job possible.

Schwarzenegger’s remarks came during an interview with TV series ‘Inside the Actor’s Studio’ host James Lipton at New York’s Chelsea Piers.

The New York Post reported that when the governor was asked what his favourite job was, he responded: “English teacher”. When Lipton then asked, “Least favourite job?”, Schwarzenegger answered “Fluffer”.

The remark reportedly reduced the crowd to hysterical laughter.

“I thought Candace Bushnell, Jay McInerney, Anne Hearst and Kerry Kennedy would all fall off their chairs they were laughing so hard”, a witness told the paper.

Speaking of his obsession with body building, the ‘Terminator’ star admitted: “My mother thought there was something wrong with me when she came into my room and saw pictures on my walls of half-naked men covered in oil. My mother said, 'Shouldn't there be pictures of girls on your walls?' My parents thought I was a little wacky”.

A spokesman for the actor, Aaron McLear, later told the LA Times that Schwarzenegger had never been a fluffer, rather, he was “just imagining his least-favourite hypothetical job”.

_An actor who was not permitted to attend last month’s Oscars filed a lawsuit against the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences for unlawfully detaining him and his wife.

Venezuelan actor Michael Avila, who is featured in the forthcoming movies ‘Straw Dogs’ and ‘Battle: Los Angeles’, claims in the suit he filed on Friday that he and Mandy, his wife, were falsely detained outside the event after they failed to show their tickets.

According to Avila, his publicist fixed everything up in order for him to attend the ceremony at the Kodak Theatre on 7 March and told him that he could get his tickets after entering the venue. However, when the couple arrived in the red carpet without the tickets, according to them, they were brought and detained to an AMPAS detention centre.

"Until approximately 10 p.m., Plaintiffs continued to be held against their will by AMPAS personnel, continued to be questioned, and continued to repeatedly request to be allowed to return to the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel", says the complaint. "At no point had Plaintiffs been arrested, been read their rights, or been allowed to contact legal representation to understand why they were being held against their will and badgered with all sorts of personal questions".

According to the lawsuit, the Avilas had "sustained injury to his and her body and shock and injury to their nervous system" and have been suffering from humiliation, physical and emotional distress, and mental anguish.

Christopher Cazenove passed away on Wednesday at the age of 66 due to septicaemia.

The British actor, who was most renowned for his portrayal of Ben Carrington in the television soap ‘Dynasty’ during the 1980s, had been in the state of comatose since his collapse at his house in February after a trip to California where he had complained of his migraines.

The actor, born in Winchester and educated and Eton and Oxford, began his film career in 1970 when he had an uncredited role in the independent movie ‘Julius Caesar.’ He had made various appearances in British televisions, the most notable of which was ‘The Duchess of Duke Street.’ His most recent appearance was in ‘A Fine Romance’ and ‘Judge John Deed.’ He also portrayed the role of Henry Higgins in ‘My Fair Lady,’ a stage production by Trevor Nunn.

He married Welsh actress Angharad Rees and they separated in 1994. In 1999, his 25-year old son died in a car crash. Since 2003, the actor had been in relationship with Isabel Davis.

“Christopher died peacefully on April 7 surrounded by his loved ones having contracted septicaemia at the end of February”, his family told a statement issued by Lesley Duff, who served as his agent for the previous 12 years.

“Despite a valiant fight and the untiring efforts of the wonderful team at St Thomas’s, he was overwhelmed. All who knew and loved him will be devastated by the loss of this incredible man who touched so many lives.”
