Bad Boy Kummer

For four years, Tom Kummer fooled SZ Magazine and other reputable media outlets in Germany and Switzerland with his fake interviews. He owed his longevity to his professionalism: his work always demonstrated seriousness, thoroughness, and quality. He faked interviews with Sharon Stone, Nicolas Cage, Sean Penn, and Bruce Willis, in which he also talked to the stars about personal topics such as sex and drugs. Today, Kummer works as a tennis instructor in Los Angeles.
