Armie Hammer’s mom gave him a nutty birthday gift this year: a vasectomy. The 38-year-old actor talked about this ballsy present on Monday’s episode of his podcast, which featured his mother, Dru Hammer, as his guest. Dru Hammer didn’t have any problem with discussing the “teste” issue.
In fact, she brought it up. “Let’s talk about what I gave you for your birthday this year,” Dru said. Then she got into the details.
“I call Armie and I go, ‘What would you like for your birthday this year?’ He was like, “I don’t know. Maybe money. Whatever,’” she recalled.
“And I was like, ‘I believe I’m going to give you a vasectomy.’” The actor then picked up the story from his end. “I go to a doctor’s office and I go, ‘I’m here to schedule a vasectomy,’” Hammer recalled, noting all the paperwork he had to fill out before consulting with a doctor.
“He was like, ‘Are you sure you wanna do this?’ I’m like, ‘I have two beautiful kids. I don’t want any more kids. I’m good to go,’” the actor continued, referring to the children he shares with ex-wife Elizabeth Chambers.
“They try to talk you out of it. I’m like, ‘You’re not going to talk me out of it. I’m done.
I’m good.’” he said. Things were, in fact, good until it came time to pay up.
Hammer’s career took a nose dive after he was accused by numerous women of rape, physical abuse and describing his cannibalistic fantasies to them, allegations he has denied. He has struggled to find work in the aftermath, and has admitted having money problems since 2021. He noted on Monday’s podcast that there was no way his own credit card could cover the procedure, and said he didn’t have insurance at the time.
That led to an awkward conversation with the clinic’s receptionist. Hammer said he told her, “My mother’s going to be calling you and she’s going to be paying for it.’” “She was looking down and she [looked up] and goes, ‘What?’ And I go, ‘Yes, my mother gave me this as a birthday present,’” Hammer continued.
“It just was one of those things like you could tell she was hearing something and like, ‘I’ve never heard — what are you talking about?’ So yeah, my mom got me a vasectomy for my birthday.” You can see the entire episode on YouTube. (h/t: People) Related From Our Partner.
