10 Famous Directors You Didn't Know Had Really Weird Fetishes

2. Todd Phillips Has A Foot Fetish Of His Own

Of all the famous directors in Hollywood, it is Quentin Tarantino who gets the most flack for having an foot fetish. And yet he's not the only one with a panache for the body part. Director Todd Phillips (whose most famous movies are Old School, Road Trip, The Hangover films and, uh, Due Date) also has a foot fetish and - unlike Tarantino, who tends to get a bit offended whenever anybody asks him about it - he's not shy to talk about it. In fact, Phillips actually went as far as to play a reoccurring foot fetishist in a bunch of his movie exploits; an unsavoury-looking character named "Mr. Creepy," which is an apt name if ever there was one. Mr. Creepy has made candid appearances in Road Trip, Old School, The Hangover and The Hangover Part III. "I play the guy with the foot fetish in the movie because I am a guy with a foot fetish," he once stated. Props for the honesty, Todd.
