While we initially felt like it wasn’t worth giving any credence to the tabloid rumors that Nic Cage hired a voodoo priestess to ward off evil spirits on the danger-plagued set of The Sorcerer’s Apprentice by writing a blog post about it, we do find it totally hilarious that Nic Cage is self-aware enough to recognize that a great many people would not put an act like this past him. With that in mind, Nic Cage issued a statement to HitFix denying this ever happened: “I did not hire a Voodoo Priestess to break a hex on the set. That’s 100% false. And I don’t know why tabloids don’t call up and ask before they print this gobbly gook.†Hmmm, “gobbly gook†sure sounds like witch talk to us! [HitFix]
