The NFL Legend Tom Brady is busy nowadays enjoying his retirement life and expanding his business empire. The former quarterback recently attended a charity event and is working hard to get Raiders ownership. No one could imagine that a person like Brady could vandalize someone’s house but he once did just that.
What’s more striking is that the target of his unexpected act was not just any ordinary house, but the luxurious residence of an A-list Hollywood celebrity.
Tom Brady once vandalized Matt Damon’s house
In 2018, Tom Brady made an appearance on “Jimmy Kimmel Live” to promote his book, “The TB12 Method.” During the show, host Jimmy Kimmel and Tom Brady decided to test the quarterback’s throwing arm strength.
They left the studio and drove to a house in the Los Angeles suburbs to carry out the prank. Unbeknownst to them, the house they selected belonged to Matt Damon, a close friend of Jimmy Kimmel and, humorously, an apparent arch-nemesis of Kimmel.
Kimmel encouraged the seven-time Super Bowl champion to throw a football through one of the house’s windows. Brady, being the good sport he is, did so, shattering a window. Damon, understandably frustrated, came running out of the house and questioned the unexpected intrusion.
However, his anger quickly turned into amusement when he realized that the culprit was Tom Brady, whom he admired. Damon even introduced himself to the former QB, making light of the situation.
The prank didn’t end there, Kimmel tossed Damon’s phone through another window in a Brady-like fashion. The whole scenario was staged for comic effect, with Damon showing his admiration for the former QB.
Brady’s friendship with Hollywood celebs
The NFL legend is not only known for his football prowess but also for his amiable interactions with Hollywood celebrities. In a surprising and fun social gathering, he was seen enjoying the company of none other than Hollywood A-lister Leonardo DiCaprio on a yacht in Sardinia as per TMZ.
This gathering followed the Cannes Film Festival and involved a mutual friend’s birthday celebration, showing that Brady comfortably mingles with the Hollywood elite.
What makes this situation intriguing is the historical context – DiCaprio and Brady share connections through Gisele Bündchen, who is Brady’s ex-wife and DiCaprio’s former flame. Despite this shared history, there appeared to be no awkwardness between the two, highlighting the former quarterback’s ability to maintain friendly relations with celebrities from different backgrounds.
The relaxed atmosphere on the yacht was captured in a group photo posted on social media, emphasizing that Brady is not only an NFL legend but also a down-to-earth personality.
The NFL legend is also friends with the famous Hollywood actor, Ben Affleck. As a die-hard New England Patriots fan, Ben Affleck has been an outspoken admirer of Tom Brady’s skills on the football field. He has often expressed his love for the quarterback.
During an interview with Jimmy Kimmel in March 2020, Ben Affleck affectionately referred to Tom Brady as the “King of Boston,” highlighting the quarterback’s iconic status in the city and their shared football enthusiasm.
While maintaining these high-profile friendships, Tom Brady is not just enjoying his free time but is also actively involved with his new roles, including ownership with the Las Vegas Raiders and E1 Championship, as well as preparing for a new television venture with Fox.
