Today's Blind Items
This one becomes juicy because of who it involves. This soclose to A list television actor who has been in movies, but is only really known for ones that involved a television character he plays cheated on his D list actress girlfriend. While she was pregnant. More than once.
William Shatner?
ReplyDeleteWho has been in movies, but as his current TV character?
ReplyDeleteChris Noth
ReplyDeleteLaw Orders/The Good Wife
Famous TV role Big and Sex and the city movie played BIG again.
Girlfriend/baby mama is D-list actress Tara Wilson
I love the Chris Noth guess.
ReplyDeleteI'll go with Montana's guess.
ReplyDeleteSay it ain't so, Chris.
Montana, you smarty pants, you!
ReplyDeleteChris Noth definitely fits "shocking because of who it involves."
This one isn't a shocker if it's Noth. And trust me, as long as he keeps it under the radar, he'll be fine.
ReplyDeleteChris is a good guess. I remember a rumor that he was out drinking and partying the night that she had the baby. After watching him in interviews I no longer found Mr. Big attractive.
ReplyDeleteChris seems like a douche in real life.
I immediatly thought of Mr. Big/Chris Noth. His fiance is Tara Lynn Wilson and their son was born in 2008
ReplyDeleteForgot to say, it's juicy, but not shocking.
ReplyDeleteyou have to be right with Chris Noth.. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_films_based_on_television_programs there is a list of tv shows turned into movies, it's the only one that fits (actor plays same character in show and movie and is almost A list..)
ReplyDeleteYeah its juicy but Chris who like Deniro loves Chocolate, cheated on Beverly Johnson throughout the relationship. Damnnnn if you cheat on supermodel Beverly Johnson then who won't you cheat on?!?!
ReplyDeleteI am going with Jeffrey Dean Morgan, why? 'Grey's Anatomy', 'Weeds' and the awesome 'Supernatural'. All acclaimed show and paved the way for 'Watchman'. Hilarie Burton from 'One Tree Hill', D List, not doing much else but taking care of that baby. No one knew about them until after she had the kid and he took her to a movie premiere. Got to be them.
ReplyDeleteI was think James Van der beek with the tv character being Dawson.
ReplyDeleteCris Noth Jumped straight to my mind as I read it too.
ReplyDeleteGreat guess Montana!
ReplyDeleteJeffrey Dean Morgan and James Van der Beek didn't play the same character in movies as they did on TV.
ReplyDeleteNoth seems like the best guess thus far...but why is it juicy?
Chris Noth was my first guess.
ReplyDeleteWhy would it be shocking if Chris Noth cheated. Everybody thinks he's a douchebag already.
ReplyDeleteNow, on the other hand, William Shatner is def A list TV, has a young gf and apparently just applied for a marriage license in May.
If William Shatner found someone to cheat with, I'd be SHOCKED.
Maybe someone from SNL? Often have spin off films from snl sketches?
ReplyDeleteWhy would this be shocking, and how on earth is Chris Noth "soclose to A list"? What a fucking world we live in - he's a solid B.
ReplyDeleteI think it's someone from SNL, though I do like the JDM guess (though I don't think he's close to A list either.)
I thought William Shatner's wife died in their swimming pool a couple years ago
ReplyDeleteSacha Baron Cohen is slated to be in Scorsese's adaptation of 'The Invention of Hugo Cabret'.
ReplyDeleteHe was previously in Talladega Nights and Sweeney Todd; however, I at least only remember him for Borat, Bruno, and Ali G.
His actress wife recently gave birth.
Nevermind, didn't fully pay attention to 'A list Television actor' clue.
ReplyDeleteA friend of mine went to Yale drama school w/Chris Noth. According to her, he is a total douche bag and has always been a horndog to boot. I'm with the Noth guesses all the way.
ReplyDeleteI think I'm on board with Mr. Big, he was the first person I thought of. A few other possibilities...
ReplyDeleteDavid Duchovny
Leonard Nimoy
Kermit the Frog
That clue was screaming Nathan Fillion until the girlfriend part.
ReplyDeleteDavid Duchovny fits as well, however the D list girlfriend doesn't.
ReplyDeleteSo Noth for the win - or maybe Kermit.
Jillian, are you suggesting that Nathan is gay? Say it isn't so.
ReplyDelete@sunnyside1213 I have it on good authority Nathan isn't gay. He has a very hot girlfriend (not sure if she's famous).
ReplyDeleteI've heard rumors about him being gay for a while. No idea if it's true. But I definitely have not heard of him dating/knocking up a d list actress.
ReplyDeleteSince we all love him so much it would be juicy if it were him though.
It is Chris Noth. But this is hardly a blind. I heard about him doing this WHEN IT WAS HAPPENING. That was, like, 2 years ago. It named him directly.
ReplyDeleteI was thinking Homer Simpson myself. He does the Simpsons, and the Simpson Movie...the one with the donut hole on the cover.
ReplyDeleteI think I'm right about this one.
I loved Chris Noth as Mike Logan in Law & Order and hated when he left. However, reading interviews with him later, it was obvious he was a real jackass. He said things like, "Some girl asked me why I was called Mr. Big and I told her she should come find out," (paraphrasing) and such in his interviews - I can only imagine his less-scrubbed non-public persona. I immediately thought of him for this one.
ReplyDelete"If William Shatner found someone to cheat with, I'd be SHOCKED."
ReplyDeleteI don't know about now, but back in the day it was well-known that he was a major cheater. Back when T.J. Hooker was filming, I had a friend who was in love with Shatner, and every day she'd call the studio to find out where the show was filming, and if it was on location she'd go there just to get a glimpse of him. A lot of times she'd drag me along. One day I went with her, and they were filming a fight on the roof of a posh hotel. When they were finished filming for the day, the limo came to take Shatner home. Well, the AD told the limo driver to come back the next morning to pick up Shatner. We were curious as to what was going on, so we asked the AD and he said there was a contingent of Playboy Playmates staying at the hotel, so Shatner wanted to stay there for the night. He didn't need to tell us what Shatner was planning on doing. This was confirmed by other guys on the crew, and we saw the girls.
Could you imagine William Shatner talking dirty?
ReplyDeleteFirst person that popped into my head was Nimoy. I like the way FluffyElmo and JW think.
I'm with Ali G
ReplyDeleteNoth is no shocker
Ali's wife may headline films but her acting is pure Australian soap opera
Sacha Baron Cohen would totally be a shocker for sure
ReplyDeleteI happen to know for a fact that Chris Noth is a total douche bag. My best friend is one of his biggest fans.. she was at a bar in New York one night and he came walking in with Christopher Mcdonald. She goes up to him and politely says that she's one of his biggest fans and she loved him as Big and all his otehr work.. he cuts her off and says "no autographs or pictures tonite" and turns away. later he did come back to my friend and he said "I just took a picture with another girl so I felt I should take one with you also". I understand celebs don't want to be bothered all the time but don't go to the most crowded bars in New York and expect to be left alone. Also don't go in acting like a D*CK and people won't think you are one.
ReplyDeletei think the fact he came over of his own accord and took the photo with her shows he's not that big of a d*ck..
ReplyDeleteI'm on board with the Homer Simpson guess.
ReplyDeleteMy first thought was NPH but that is obviously not the correct answer :)
ReplyDeleteOkay, I'm very sad to read that Chris Noth is a douchbag. I harbored hope that he was really cool. Sigh.
ReplyDelete@ Danielle
ReplyDeleteWow, I'm actually impressed he came back over to your friend. The fact that I'm impressed shows how very little I expect kindness (or even mere civility) from any actor.
I think Tiff hit the nail on the head. Jeffrey Dean Morgan has been in a lot of films, and can easily be described as "thisclosetoA". He recently found out he has a 4 year old, and he has a newborn with Hilarie Burton, a former MTV veejay and a cast member on one of those cable dramas. Makes a ton of sense.
ReplyDeleteI don't think Chris Noth is a dick for the record. I bumped into him in WeHo & he was quite nice. Then again I wasn't up on him for an autograph or an acting role.
ReplyDeleteI absolutely believe this is Chris Noth.
