Christian Bale Visits Victims of Aurora Shooting

by Kellie Foxx-Gonzalez | 1:17 pm, July 25th, 2012



  1. 1.

    In a moment of immense pain for the community of Aurora, Colorado following the devastating shooting that occurred during the premiere of The Dark Knight Rises, Christian Bale paid an unannounced visit to the survivors currently recovering in the hospital, in addition to attending a memorial service in honor of the 12 lives tragically lost. We'd like to take a moment to not only honor the victims, survivors, and all those impacted by this horrific turn of events, but also to commend Christian Bale for being an upstanding human being and paying his respects to the  affected fans of his craft without making it a press event.

    Very decent of him. And kudos to him and his wife for doing it by themselves, without WB and all.  I think he sort of announced himself to a city official, which was the polite thing to do, and he specifically asked that the media *not* be alerted, presumably so that it won’t turn into a circus.

    Alot of people have been busting on Bale for showing up, but the dude honestly scores all kinds of points in my book for doing this. Regardless of what people may think of him, I bet is was awesome for the people who were hurt to see Bale and hear his condolences first hand.

     Agreed. I don’t understand why people have been busting his balls about this, but it was an amazing act for him to take time out of his day to do. :)

    i think it is a tribute also to this website that they offered the photos without comment. not that their commentary is bad, but i think it was in good taste to not put themselves in a position where they have to argue a point or take a side. it is what it is and we should all be able to appreciate that. thank you mary sue!
