I had to reread the blind a few times but solidly team Minnie. i’m really glad that I can still be Team Minnie. She seems like a delight. And I’m happy when anyone can knock Gwyneth down a few pegs.

Whenever I think of villains in Old Hollywood stories, this magnate shoots right to the top. He liked to control everything he touched, and if he couldn't control you, then you usually ended up dead. Sometimes though, when you were the relative of your long time love, he was not allowed to murder, and had to resort to other mechanisms at his disposal. Those often resulted in the death of a person, but at least he had some plausible deniability.
From a very young age, this sometime actress/reporter/socialite lived with her A list actress aunt and her lover the villain. It was also from a very young age that our socialite used many drugs, and loved embarrassing her aunt and her lover by taking a series of African American actresses to her bed. Our socialite ended up being kicked out of the home and shipped to Europe where she worked for the villain for a number of years and her escapades were far enough from him that he pretended not to notice. It was when she moved back to the US, and in short order got raped and was forced to have an abortion and then a series of flings with more actresses that our villain had her committed to a psychiatric hospital. It was from there, that she "jumped" to her death. She was just 25.

July 28, 2022 At the time of his death, this foreign born A list singer in an A list group was seeing several different women. The general belief is there were four. The established one, and then three other women. No one has ever really pinned down who the random three women were. I have now found at least one of them, and because of the relationship, it led to a divorce of the woman. The woman had known the A list singer for a long time. She had contact with him in some form or another for nearly a decade. The woman at the time was probably at the peak of her fame when she met the singer and was almost a decade younger than him. They hooked up within several hours of meeting, despite the woman having a then boyfriend who she would marry. That boyfriend who she would marry, introduced the woman to the singer. For all those years, he never knew his wife was hooking up with his best friend. It was not until after the death of the singer that he discovered it and divorced his wife. Michael Hutchence/INXS/Rosanna Crash This made me remember that it was this year that we learned about the three degrees of separation a poster here has with this dude and Leo. Still so wild to me.

July 19, 2022 There are lots of grudges in Hollywood. Some of them are long standing. Some result in people never working again. One grudge I have never understood reared its ugly head again this month. This A- list actress (BB) who has a long running side gig and is not named Jessica Alba, was asked if she would like to work on a collaboration with this foreign born actress (CC) who probably peaked at A- list. BB was visibly angry when she turned down the proposition. First of all it has been two decades and I have never figured out why BB has the grudge against CC. It should be the other way around. CC was in a relationship with an actor (DD) when BB decided to play matchmaker and introduced her actress roommate (EE) to DD. DD and EE immediately started hooking up very secretly while CC was none the wiser and continued to date DD very publicly until she was horrifically dumped in one of the worst celebrity dumpings of all time. It is a dumping that does not get the attention it should. Therefore it should be CC who has the grudge against BB. Nope. The reason is that CC got revenge and not only hooked up with BB's then boyfriend, she also told EE about the script that BB stole from EE. BB: Gwyneth Paltrow/"GOOP" CC: Minnie Driver DD: Matt Damon EE: Winona Ryder This blind is incomplete! I want to know which script! lol

This alliterate permanent A-list actress/singer who at one point was one of the highest grossing and earning movie stars of all time seemed like the prissy girl next door characters she portrayed on screen. The truth is the complete opposite. She was known to have an X-rated sense of humor, cursed like a truck driver, allegedly smoked pot early on in her pre movie career and had several affairs before and during her marriage to her longtime manager/husband including several of her leading men including a future President of the US.

July 18, 2022 This blind is not particularly hard. It really is barely a blind. However, in honor of the occasion, I thought I would share this story. A couple of decades ago when this A list actor who sometimes directs was dating the woman he recently married, he spent a lot of time in casinos, and drunk, often at the same time. Because of who he is and his spending, casinos made sure to keep the booze flowing and often had it served by some of their most accommodating servers. Yes, it means what you think it means. Our actor often would end up spending the night or hooking up for a few hours with the servers in his comped suite. Several times, in his drunken state, he would forget his new wife would be coming to the hotel for a visit or meeting him in town and more than once a server was found in the bed of the actor. He would apologize and promise to never do it again, knowing it would happen the very next time he was in town. Catching him with the stripper/escort north of the border was probably the tenth time she caught him, and what finally busted them apart. Fast forward a few years. It was in those same casino comped suites that the pair would often meet when they could get away from their respective significant others for a few hours or overnight. So, it does make sense they would end up marrying in that town. Ben Affleck/Jennifer Lopez/Las Vegas Juicy The cheating does not surprise me in the slightest, his originally and them also cheating together

This actor is permanently A list. Everyone on the planet knows the name, even if they can't remember a specific role. He was married multiple times and had multiple children. Several of his children met tragic ends. One of those children, had an especially difficult life. From a very young age, she was forced to have sex with her father. This went on until her death. She was impregnated by her father multiple times, but only one child was born. The rest of the time, the babies were aborted. The one allowed to live is because the father was told one of his friends who he gave his daughter to, is the one who got her pregnant. There have always been rumors that it was not the father that got her pregnant, but rather her brother.

I have an inexplicable soft spot for Brittany Murphy. Her blind made me sad-- that instead of intervening or helping her they just filmed her.
She always struck me as someone who did not have good people around her.

1. Floss my teeth and go to the dentist (I hate the dentist and haven’t been in a few years 😬) 2. Workout for 20 minutes twice a week. 3. Read 50 books. Can we hype each other up about making (and following through with) dental appts? Because I also have insane dental anxiety and I haven’t been in…awhile. Same. I could use some support in this area.

The subject of the previous BI was the front runner for the big screen adaptation of a long running Broadway musical which the producing studio hoped would be as big a blockbuster as another Broadway-to-Hollywood transfer. Behind the scenes, another challenger emerged for the role. This permanent A+ list singer/actress/diva had just finished wrapping the movie version of the Broadway show which made her a household name and was soon to win her one of the awards which would make her an EGOT. She knew she was too young for the part, but the buzz for her movie debut was enormous and she was striking while the iron was hot. Everything was set for the alliterate actress to star in this movie, which she hoped would be her comeback after a string of flops. The younger singer’s agent, who was considered one of the first super-agents in the biz, talked with the alliterate singer’s husband/manager behind her back saying that the younger singer would be better box office and that his wife would be all wrong for the part because she wasn’t as big a draw as she was in the past. When the alliterate singer found out about this, she hit the ceiling and called back the younger singer’s agent in a profanity laced tirade threatening to ruin her career. The part, as you all know, went to the younger singer and movie was not the blockbuster the studio was hoping for. The alliterate singer only made a few more movies after this debacle and she focused on TV from then on. to be continued…

For the first time ever, this decades old movie is being released in a brand new format. This movie stars some of the biggest stars working today. It has multiple Oscar winners and multiple A+ listers. Back then though, they were nobody, or barely nobody. One of the stars, who has had a resurgent past few months, has been talking about the production of the movie and why two actors in particular got all the press, even though there were others to choose from, several of whom would have been better choices.
It all came down to who was willing to do what on screen and off. The ones who were enthusiastic about getting naked and were willing to shoot scenes they knew would never be in the movie, were given the full press treatment. Those who hesitated and were not willing were ignored by producers and intentionally left out of press junkets and press packets. The one exception to this was an actor who was incredibly wealthy and who the producers thought they might need to go to for money in the future for projects. He was not subjected to any of the demands. Although most of you have not probably heard of him, he has acted for decades and has family members who are in the news on an almost daily basis.
Oh, the actors who were judged to be the most cooperative are currently an A+/A lister who is an Oscar winner/nominee and another actor who peaked at A for a quick minute and is now probably B list.

I was thinking Marlon Brando was the other dude on the boat when Natalie Wood died but that was Christopher Walken. Robert Wagner totally pushed her over.

I'm not sure you can guess this. The main subject is a foreign born actress who doesn't really act any longer and when she did act, didn't do much you would see here. She has several million followers on social media. She likes to say she quit acting, but she was forced out. When she was in her teens, she became part of a group of teen actresses/singers who are thrown in a pool of potential dates. High ranking politicians, their offspring and select business executives can date anyone in the pool and when they get tired of them throw them back. Once they reach 21, they are removed from the pool. Teens as young as 14 or 15 have been known to be in the pool. In this poor country, parents are given a lot of money to allow their daughters to be in the pool, plus the daughters usually have a much better life and often end up marrying their suitor. Our actress exposed the whole thing though and some wanted her killed. She hated the fact she had to pretend she was carrying the child of an offspring of a former A++ lister in that country rather than telling everyone it was the dirty old man who was the father of the baby.
