Michael Madsen -- Taken Away on a 5150!

Posted Oct 22nd 2008 1:07PM by TMZ Staff

Britney Spears has a neighbor in 5150 City: Michael Madsen, aka Mr. Blonde.

We've learned Madsen was taken away from his home by L.A. Sheriff's deputies Monday around 2:00 PM after a family member in the house became alarmed by his crazy behavior. Cops responded and carted him off to the hospital on a 5150 hold.

Madsen's rep had no comment.

love his crazy ass

**MohandasKGanja** · October 22nd, 2008, 01:06 PM

I have ALWAYS thought this guy was as crazy as the roles he's played. There was just no way he was THAT good of an actor.

And his sister Virginia is the hotness at any age.

I don't care what ya'll say,,, I love him

**Just Kill Me** · October 22nd, 2008, 01:25 PM

Oh I love him, too. ITA with Mr. Ganja on his crazy roles and what not.

**SweetPea** · October 22nd, 2008, 01:44 PM

There is something about this guy. I just love him and feel for him. He's a good actor and never seems to get his due.

**ManxMouse** · October 22nd, 2008, 02:08 PM

God, he was good in Thelma & Louise.

Yep. I've thought that about quite a few of the male actors in the gangster type films.

Is it wrong that I thought he/his character in Resevoir Dogs was so fricking hot?

Mr. Blonde went apeshit?! Say it isn't so!

ETA: Wow, I just looked at his imdb and he has been insane crazy busy filming, I'd lose my shit too with all that work.

He is always great in his roles. I love his work, but, I have questioned his sanity.

**fatguyinalittlecoat** · October 22nd, 2008, 03:21 PM

He seems to take any roles/any money that comes his way...

Holy Jeebus thats alot of work!!

**yanna** · October 22nd, 2008, 03:58 PM

Nwgirl, I found him hot in Reservoir Dogs too. Mr Blond is one of my movie crushes.

His sister is very hot too. I laughed when he said that he can't watch any of her movies, though because she's so often naked in them and "That's my sister, man!"

I hope he's going to be ok. It's probably drugs
