What are Randy Quaid and his wife up to this time?
The 64-year-old Christmas Vacation actor, and older brother to Dennis Quaid, posted a truly bizarre video where he attacks media mogul Rupert Murdoch for not thanking him for his role in the 1996 film Independence Day. Exposing a Hawaiian shirt under his blazer, he touts, "This is the very same shirt that I wore in '94 when I saved the world [in Independence Day] -- another act that Rupert Murdoch still hasn't thanked me for."
All the while his wife, Evgenia, is seen in the background wearing a bikini and sunglasses and sitting on the bed. "Evi and I have been put through a living hell. A living hell of biblical proportions," he says, adding that his acting roles helped "media giants News Corp and Warner Bros Entertainment earn well over a billion dollars for the films Independence Day and Christmas Vacation."

Randy Quaid, an actor known for films like "Brokeback Mountain" and "Independence Day," has been denied for permanent residency status in Canada. He has resided in that country since 2010, Quaid and his wife fled to British Columbia after an arrest for property damage.
According to the Associated Press, an unnamed government official confirmed that Quaid's application for residency had been denied. He does not have to immediately leave the country, and he can appeal the decision. Quaid's wife, Evi, gained Canadian citizenship in 2011 because her father was Canadian.
The Quaids left the country after an arrest in 2010. The couple was accused of causing $5000 worth of damage to a rental home in California. Although American officials haven't bothered to extradite Randy and Evi Quaid for their felony charges, law enforcement authorities have said that the couple would be arrested upon reentry into the country.

Since its release on Dec. 1, 1989, 'Christmas Vacation' has become a holiday staple -- and not just because Mavis Staples sang the now-classic title track. (Try the veal?) Starring Chevy Chase (before he was the anchor on 'Community'), Randy Quaid (before he ran away from the Star Whackers), Beverly D'Angelo (before 'Entourage') and Julia Louis-Dreyfus (before 'Seinfeld'), the film earned $71 million at the box office and -- unofficially -- received a lifetime holiday season pass from TBS. What was it like when 'Christmas Vacation' was being filmed? Thankfully, Entertainment Tonight has posted video of a long-lost set visit to 'Vacation,' which finds Chase mugging, Quaid holding onto reality with a supple grip, and D'Angelo looking as adorable as you remember. (Sorry, Ari Gold.) No talking head shots of the now-deceased William Hickey (he...
