Did Paul Rudd give Seth Rogen a massage? Internet calls it 'weird', dubs him 'Paul Rubb'

'Was Paul Rudd a good masseuse or no?' one user asked while some felt it was a prank gone wrong

Actor and filmmaker Seth Rogen recently tweeted about a past incident at a Las Vegas spa, where he reportedly got a massage from 'Ant-Man' actor Paul Rudd. It was apparently a prank that Rudd decided to play on Rogen, but it did not go as planned since the latter did not realize it till the end. "Once I was in the spa in a hotel in Vegas getting a massage. When I finished I turned over and to my shock Paul Rudd was massaging me. He saw me go in and convinced the masseuse to let him take over, thinking I’d notice immediately. I didn’t, and Paul did the entire rest of it," Rogen recollected.

Rogen, who had worked with Rudd in several films like 'Knocked Up', 'The 40-Year-Old Virgin', 'Sausage Party' and others, appears to share a great camaraderie with the 'F.R.I.E.N.D.S' actor. His latest tweet about the massage debacle left the Internet in splits. When 'This My Show' host Jeremy Wein wondered if this was Rogen's "weed induced hallucination", the comedian replied, "I’m sure Paul would confirm it." However, Rudd is yet to comment on the incident and give more insights into his side of the story. Rogen also did not reveal when exactly the incident had happened.

'Was Paul Rudd a good masseuse or no?'

Internet darling Rudd started trending soon after Rogen's tweet, as people recollected their personal interactions with Rudd. He was dubbed as 'awesome', and a 'solid guy'. However, some users also expressed their disapproval of Rudd, especially since they felt that him giving a massage to Rogen without his knowledge was 'weird'. There was one hilarious nickname which caught the Internet's attention: "Paul Rubb".

"Paul Rudd is awesome. Met him in a few years back.. Solid guy," tweeted producer Felix Kay.  Daily Beast editor-at-large Molly Jong-Fast inquired, "Was Paul Rudd a good masseuse or no?"

Writer Charlotte Clymer demanded, "More stories, please."
 
 A user could not help expressing their wish, "Suddenly Paul Rudd turning out to be my masseuse is the thing I want most in the whole world." Another wrote, "I’ve never wanted to be anymore more in any moment ever in the history of time, than I want to have been you, on that massage table."

However, not everyone was impressed. TV writer and stand-up comedian Mike Drucker also did not seem pleased by Rudd's antics, as he tweeted, "This is the opposite of a prank." Author Jenny Trout also could not seem to grasp it, as all tweeted "the...ENTIRE...rest of it?"

A third user wrote, "It's a little weird that he just kept going and gave you an entire massage. Just gonna out that out there."
