Somehow I missed the memo on the scarfy aspects of Cuba Gooding Jr.’s fashion taste. Johnny Depp would feel right at home in this outfit, and it sounds like they share a love of alcohol too. Back in 2012, CB covered a story about how Cuba shoved and punched a female bartender at a New Orleans bar. This incident followed news of Cuba’s drunken NYC bender and a child-tossing incident on GMA.

Since then, Cuba’s 20-year marriage has collapsed. Page Six has a new tale about Cuba’s bizarre night on the town in Manhattan. The Oscar-winning actor (ha) showed off his abs to some models. Then he laid hands on a hotel employee for “bad service”:

The Jerry Maguire star was with pals, spies said, including director Paul Haggis at the Soho hotel late on Monday night when he invited another table, that included Danish model Ammalie Overbeck and Dutch beauty Bo ‘t Jong, to join him. Once they joined him, Gooding was “pulling up his shirt to show the women his abs.” But when he wanted to order more drinks around midnight, a witness said he became inexplicably frustrated with a hardworking waiter, hopped over a banquette and got in his face.

“He grabbed a waiter by both shoulders and gave him a verbal shellacking,” said a source, adding the waiter was found by two other members of Gooding’s group “sobbing” in the rest room. “The server was saying, ‘I wanted to be an actor — but maybe I’m too sensitive for this!” a spy related. Gooding’s pals explained that the Selma star’s going through a divorce. (His ex Sara Kapfer filed for divorce after 20 years of marriage in April.)

Back at Gooding’s table, spies said he then announced he wanted to engage in a sex act we can’t print in a family newspaper. The young models “seemed quite shocked” and turned off, so Gooding turned his attention to another woman.

Cuba’s rep has already denied this story, but Page Six has spoken of his exploits on other occasions. In December, Cuba was “like a freshman at a college party” and telling women his name was “D*ck McWilly.” This guy is a total mess. I don’t know why filmmakers are still hiring him. He had a role in Selma, and he’s playing O.J. Simpson in the upcoming TV series American Crime Story. (Not that playing O.J. is something to be proud of.)

This poor waiter. Cuba was out of line in grabbing the guy. He was probably drunk, which is no excuse. Oh, and LMAO at the idea of Page Six as “a family newspaper.” Whatever Cuba said must have been really raunchy if they couldn’t print it.
