Today's Blind Items

First, an update. When I say someone has been mentioned in this space previously, I'm referring to the blind item space, not the blog.

#1 Definitely over between the A list couple who hasn't been photographed together and the wife on "vacation." The problem is our actor has such a good reputation that divorce won't be an option unless he gets caught with the very early 20's blonde he has been hanging out with at one of his homes.

#2 This reality show host has been rumored to be gay and this past weekend did nothing to quell the rumors. Our host was spotted around town with makeup on, and glitter sparkled on every inch of exposed skin. We heard he even smelled like he was wearing women's perfume.

#3 This Top 40 singer has had some recent problems with record sales and her relationship with the crazy white powder probably isn't helping matters either. What was once a pick me up is now more and more becoming a daily necessity. No, it's not Britney.

    #1 - I'm still going with Ben Affleck on this one....could be Matt Damon though

    ReplyDelete
  4. For no. 2 Jeffy Probst...

    ReplyDelete
  5. LOL Ent - not Britney.

    #1. ?? Not too many actors in general have good reputations.

    #2. Sparkles Seacrest

    #3. Hilary Duff - I'd say Kelly Clarkson but she's been gaining weight so I don't think she's on the snow diet

    ReplyDelete
  6. There have been recent pix of the Affleck family (sp??) hanging with the kid, and Jen certainly isn't on "vacation".

    ReplyDelete
  7. I don't think it's Affleck either.

    #3 could be Celine Dion.

    ReplyDelete
  8. Have Tom and Rita been seen together recently? Or Steven & Kate?

    ReplyDelete
  9. BTW - I had a friend who was hooked on blow, and he was chunky. Not the norm, I'm just sayin'

    ReplyDelete
  10. I think #3 is Swinehouse.

    ReplyDelete
  11. Tom Hanks and Matt Damon are good answers. I don't think Speilberg would care about getting a divorce since he's already been divorced once already (Amy Irving). And Affleck, even w/o the recent beach pics seems like he's not so "good" that he'd be worried about his reputation.

    Speaking of beach pics we saw him with Jessica and Matt Damon, but was Matt Damons wife with them? If she was, we can discount him, too.

    ReplyDelete
  12. There are pix of Rita w/o Tom, but I've seen pix of the Speilbergs at some event someplace recently....

    ReplyDelete
  13. Yes, there were pics of her as well.

    re: Winehouse, I think her album sales are great, so probably not her. Besides, the teeth rotting thing points to meth.

    love the "sparkels seacrest" answer.

    ReplyDelete
  14. Oh - and Twisted, Hanks was married when he met Rita. He divorced for her.

    ReplyDelete
  15. good point about Tom & Rita - didn't ent post a picture of her not too long ago pointing out she was alone?

    ReplyDelete
  16. 1- Tom and Rita. Not Bennifer 2.0 theya re photoed a lot.
    2- Gaycrest.
    3- NOt Winehouse her recorrd sales are good...its her attendance that needs work. I'd say Amy Lee or Kelly Clarkson..or Avril.

    ReplyDelete
  17. Thanks, Pinky - I forgot that he was married when he was younger. Geeze, weren't they all? And at least half of them ended up divorced.

    ReplyDelete
  18. I'm with Tom and Rita for #1. I can't remember the last time I saw them photographed together. I read "vacation" as "boob job".

    #2 is Gaycrest or Probst.

    For #3, I agree with Pinky - anyone ever heard of "coke bloat"? Still, I'm not sure if it's Kelly Clarkson - could it be Fantasia or Duff? I don't follow record sales but I'm sure it wouldn't take much Googling.

    ReplyDelete
  19. Amy Lee is a good guess. Didn't even remember the story about her trashing the green room or something.
    However, I have also known several people who got chunky on blow. I know it's not the norm, but it has happened, so Kelly Clarkson could be a guess.
    Sparkles Seacrest - ROFL!
    I think #1 is Tom Hanks and Rita - that's sad.

    ReplyDelete
  20. #1-Tom hanks and Rita. Ent made a weird comment about her being alone with new boobs. If she got new boobs, maybe she did it because she's back on the prowl. Plus Affleck doesn't have that good of a rep...Tom does hands down.

    #2-Ryan Gaycrest. Probst is still with that chick that was on Survivor.

    #3-Hilary Duff. Winehouse's record sales are up from the norm, Hilary's? not so much. This album isn't doing as well. -gasp!

    ReplyDelete
  21. I meant to say Duff's album isn't doing as well as her previous ones. Whew, sometimes I need to slow down and re-read what I typed.

    ReplyDelete
  22. I thought Probst just married the Touched by an Angel chick?

    LOL I actually have not heard coke bloat - just booze bloat. The coke fiends I've known were all skinny.

    The comment about trouble with record sales is making me lean towards Kelly Clarkson (bloat or not..lol) - there was so much press 'bout her latest disc sucking & the whole Clive Davis thing....

    ReplyDelete
  23. Coke doesn't make you thin magically. Diego Maradona is anything but Calista Flockhart-thin.

    ReplyDelete
  24. I think it was Mark Burnett that married Roma Downey.

    ReplyDelete
  25. 1. affleck and damon were all in hawaii with their wives and kids - i saw pictures of them all so they are out. im leaning towards tom hanks/rita wilson...can't think of another actor with a "good reputation".

    2. Seacrest OUT

    3. Hilary Duff

    ReplyDelete
  26. Well, if it IS Hanks, there goes another nice guy who turns out to be a cretin. A cretin who swings both way, apparently.

    ReplyDelete
  27. Yes, Mark Burnett married Roma Downey. I recently saw pics of Tom, Rita and one of their boys hanging out a window on vacation (Italy maybe?)How 'bout Phil Keough (sp?) from 'Amazing Race' for the smell-good reality show host?

    ReplyDelete
  28. Ah...yes...I don't really watch reality tv so I have a hard time keeping them all "straight"....lol...and knowing which person belongs where.

    ReplyDelete
  29. What makes Matt Damon's wife "A list"? I can't even name her on any given day.

    ReplyDelete
  30. Here's the original blind item for #1: "Have you noticed this A+ list couple hasn't been photographed together lately even though he has been. Do you think she is enjoying her long "vacation" because he slept with their maid's daughter or because he hit on and got rejected by the son of a family friend. Both happened but who knows which caused the "vacation."

    No where in either blind items does it say the husband or wife are actors (movie or TV) or singers - just "A list couple" or "A+ list couple"

    I'm thinking an older couple...

    ReplyDelete
  31. What about Spielberg and Capshaw? Or Warren and Annette?

    ReplyDelete
  32. Scratch Warren and Annette - until he met her, he had a terrible reputation. I like the Spielberg guess.

    ReplyDelete
  33. Anonymous1:24 PM

    I'm thinking Affleck because
    - they WERE on vacation
    - There was a reference made to child(ren) and it was spelled just like that.
    Or do I have some BIs mixed up? Which wouldn't surprise me at all.

    ReplyDelete
  34. Would Harrison & Calista be considered Alist?

    ReplyDelete
  35. affleck and garner were photographed numerous times on their hawaiian getaway. they were surfing together.

    ReplyDelete
  36. Just adding to the mix for #1. We keep guessing the same A List couple over and over. Your opinions on whether my guesses are A list may vary.

    Steven Spielberg / Kate Capshaw
    Danny Devito / Rhea Perlman
    Arnold Schwarzenegger / Maria Shriver
    Seal / Heidi Klum
    William H. Macy / Felicity Huffman

    ReplyDelete
  37. It can't be Ben Affleck. He definitely doesn't have a good reputation.

    I like the Tom Hanks guess, but God I hope I'm wrong because he seems like such a great guy!

    ReplyDelete
  38. I've recently seen a picture of Rita and underneath captionedomething about new boobs; as hez mentioned vacation equalling new boobs.

    ReplyDelete
  39. Okay I know Wikipedia isn't the greatest place for info, but it's lists a-list couples. I listed only those who I can think of who I haven't seen photographed together recently and the guy is an actor (if you see any couples that have been photographed together, lmk:

    Tom & Rita
    Ashton & Demi
    Travolta & Kelly
    William H. Macy & Felicity Huffman
    Kurt & Goldie
    Courtney Cox & David Arquette
    CZJ & Michael Douglas
    Damon & Kim
    Jerry Seinfeld & wifey
    Sean Penn & Robin! Yikes! This almost went over my head....hmmm we have def. seen HIM without her.

    I change my vote to Sean & Robin. I haven't seen her on his arm at all with all of his partying. I've only seen Rita out, not Tom.

    ReplyDelete
  40. Ooooh, I like the Arnold and Maria guess, but he doesn't have a good reputation where the ladies are concerned. But I can see there being no divorce unless it became absolutely necessary.

    ReplyDelete
  41. Can I just add that Sean's reputation has gotten better over the years. He has done a lot of humanitarian work, so maybe he doesn't want a divorce because it will tie to his bad boy single days.

    ReplyDelete
  42. I'd go with Travolta and Kelly before going with Sean Penn. His rep may have improved, but he's not so much of a good guy that it would prevent him from getting a divorce.

    ReplyDelete
  43. Who are Damon and Kim???

    ReplyDelete
  44. Kim is short for Luciana.

    ReplyDelete
  45. Honestly, the more I think about it, the more I'm on board with Tom Hanks (nooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!). The hint EL is giving us is in saying the wife is on vacation, as several of you have already pointed out.

    ReplyDelete
  46. Remember, the original BI talked about HIM being photographed without her - not the other way around (although I think we may have seen her photo since the BI first ran).

    Ent's latest comment about Danny & Rhea was something about how he never hears anything bad about them. They're out of contention, IMO.

    Steven & Kate are possible I guess. But the photo and "vacation" clues don't fit.

    Again, JMHO, but I think Macy & Huffman are genuinely in love - same with Seal and Heidi.

    Tom and Rita are still looking good for it...

    ReplyDelete
  47. My bad! Gotta lay off the sauce. Okay I at least have to lay off before noon.

    Twisted, after Hurricane Katrina, Sean's rep got a lot better. Remember? He was getting good PR for going and helping people out of the water and bringing in supplies. Plus there's whisperings that one day he'll get into politics. Think it won't happen? Look at Arnold he's an adulter that's gobenor of Kaliforniah.

    I'd say Penn before Travolta any day. The whole scientology thing doesn't sit well with many folks.

    ReplyDelete
  48. Sparkles Seacrest seems like the obvious answer for #2 but I just don't think he'd go full out in glitter and makeup when his jobs are so high profile. I'd expect that to be all over the news for him but maybe not so much for a lesser known reality host.

    ReplyDelete
  49. Wasn't there a picture of Tom without Rita recently as well?

    ReplyDelete
  50. Tracee, he wasn't getting any good press here in Chicago. They showed him out in his little boat to save stranded souls with all of his people (camera, makeup, his wardrobe person, who knows...) which left room for one person. The media had a field day with him.

    ReplyDelete
  51. #1 - first couple that came to mind was Catherine Zeta-Jones and Michael Douglas. I heard her prenup has a clause re: if he cheats...

    ReplyDelete
  52. Hmm. Twisted, in Texas it was a different story. The fact that he got there and was doing SOMETHING. And the people he helped had nothing bad to say. But we can agree to disagree on Sean's rep.

    I was going back to pictures Ent posted and I've only seen pictures of Sean with other women, not one with Robin. In fact I haven't seen a photo of them together since he offered to bail out Eve.

    I think Tom & Rita are good guesses I just haven't seen any photos recently of Tom alone...just rita alone.

    Maybe we're still off on both guesses. It could be CZJ and michael...but I haven't seen any photos of Michael alone.

    ReplyDelete
  53. Tracee, how funny that people processed that whole thing differently.

    We're probably both wrong. Jennifer's guess of CZJ and MD is interesting. I do think it has to be someone with a higher profile who is photographed a lot. And I can see MD screwing anything, so sleeping with the maid's daughter and hitting on the son of a family friend wouldn't surprise me.

  55. Evey w/Ent's caption, I thought Rita Wilson just looked heavier, not newly-enhanced. Looked to me like the Menopause Fairy has arrived.

    Arnie/Maria guess is interesting; there weregossip/blind items suggesting a divorce announcement about two months ago. I hope it's not true. Wouldn't mind it being about Hanks/Wilson; I also remember when he dumped his wife -- and then treated her badly during the divorce proceedings.

    ReplyDelete
  56. On Ryan Seacrest's morning radio show today, they were discussing glitter lotion. Apparently he thinks it should be labeled more clearly. He didn't realize shimmer meant glitter.

    I only caught it at the end of the conversation, but from the sound of it, he accidentally used some shimmer lotion.

    So he's definitely number 2.

    ReplyDelete
  57. Off-topic because she's probably here and done with the other thread:

    Brenda, your comment about the clackers had me lmao!

    ReplyDelete
  58. Shimmer, glimmer...using either one still makes him the gayest gay who ever gayed.

    ReplyDelete
  59. Gayest gay who ever gayed - now that's a LOL!

    Just thought of another couple for #3 - what about Susan Sarandon & Tim Robbins?

    ReplyDelete
  60. J, that's another good guess, I didn't even think of them. The only problem I have with that one is they're both so independent we often see photo's of them alone, don't we?

    ReplyDelete
  61. And they're not married.

    ReplyDelete
  62. Not Felicity and William, they were at Evas wedding.

    ReplyDelete
  63. ^ Have we seen any photos of Susan and Tim?
    Before/after Annette, Warren's not faithful. Ahnuld's a total pig, so neither has a good reputation. Trav & Kelly have been photo'ed together recently (Hairspray hoopla). Just by default, I guess it's CZJ and MD.
    Agree that #2's Ryan. Though married, Phil Keoghan's only into brunette women.
    No clue for #3.
    Juju

    ReplyDelete
  64. Yeah...I know not married....I was just racking my brain to think of different couples that could be Alist. lol We need some sort of a list of all the A/B/C listers to draw from.

    ReplyDelete
  65. totally thinking czj & md

    ReplyDelete
  66. Yo my peeps!!

    And Hez.

    Heh

    #1 - The first thought that came into my head (no jokes, please) was Tom and Rita. You used to see them a lot, and now - not so much. Also, it says A list COUPLE, which probably indicates they are both well known (or better known).

    CZJ (love her) and Michael Douglas is another good pick.

    Cyn (love ya Hez)

    ReplyDelete
  67. #2 is a nice blind item and bloggers should do more like this one. There is no reason at all to write a freaking blind item if there aren't enough clues and people can't find out who it is (other than getting hits for google ads with a bunch of lies). But this one is lovely. =)

    ReplyDelete
  68. I'm stunned that no one has guessed Will and Jada for #1. They haven't been photographed lately, until the Beckham party the other night. THey're definitely A list, and he has a good reputation.

    ReplyDelete
  69. Anonymous7:26 PM

    the question I have about #2 is that, hasn't Ent been against outing celebrities?

    ReplyDelete
  70. #1 - there have been photos of CZJ lately alone on a boat - so vacation? - without MD....that's my vote. besides, he's known to swing both ways. besides, there have been pics of Hanks and Wilson recently on vacation together so that rules them out.

    #2 - Seacrest

    #3 - Clarkson? she has had troubles lately with sales

    ReplyDelete
  71. This comment has been removed by the author.

    ReplyDelete
  72. Cyn, you sassy girl. ;)

    I totally disagree with CZJ and MD for #1 because she has been photographed a lot for her new movie. At the risk of repeating myself, the BI clearly stresses it was HIM that had been photographed recently, without her.

    ReplyDelete
  73. 1) Catherine Zeta-Jones. They just announced she is going to be in "Rachel's Holiday".

    2) Seacrest

    3) K. Clarkson

    ReplyDelete
  74. NOOOOOOOOOO CJZ goddamn i hope shes not Rachel..that is SOO Minnie driver's role..sorry big Marian Keyes fan.

    ReplyDelete
  75. Sorry, how does the BI make clear that he has been photographed alone? All it says is that the couple hasn't been photographed together.

    ReplyDelete
  76. He doesn't out anyone in number 2. It just says he has been rumored to be gay and was seen wearing makeup with glittering skin.

    ReplyDelete
  77. isn't kelly is a bit too goody goody to be using blow? i don't get that vibe from her at all, she seems like the type that eats her feelings and would snack on a whole box of little debbie snack cakes but not do a couple of rails.
    i think its duff, her album has tanked.

    ReplyDelete
  78. Mama P, here is the original version of BI #1, from July 20 - pay particular attention to the end of the first sentence:

    Have you noticed this A+ list couple hasn't been photographed together lately even though he has been. Do you think she is enjoying her long "vacation" because he slept with their maid's daughter or because he hit on and got rejected by the son of a family friend. Both happened but who knows which caused the "vacation."


    That's why I think it's not CZJ... we haven't seen photos of MD on this blog in ages, but we did have a pic of Hanks that Ent made a joke about not long before the date when this BI originally ran.

    ReplyDelete
  79. Clackers AND the Menopause Fairy?!?!?! What a way to start the morning!!

    ReplyDelete
  80. Sara, nobody guessed Will and Jada because they have an open marriage that will probably last longer than any other marriage in Hollywood.

    And I'm still sayin' that anyone who sits with her legs that far apart must have balls. She's very testosterone driven.

    ReplyDelete
  81. How about Melanie and Antonio for #1?

    ReplyDelete
  82. It can't be CZJ & MD. Enty posted a photo of them together at the end of june...http://www.crazydaysandnights.net/search/label/Michael%20Douglas

    ReplyDelete
  83. #1 I used to think it was Matt Damon, but "at one of his homes" hints at great wealth. It's gotta be Tom & Rita.

    ReplyDelete
  84. #3) ...Lily Allen? She's had some bizarre emotional outbursts of late

    ReplyDelete
  85. For some reason, I don't think it's Gaycrest, he wouldn't be so stupid and so obvious. He's that arrogant.

    ReplyDelete
  86. there is a pic today of CZJ and Ent mentions her boobs looking new which could = "vacation"...

    ReplyDelete
  87. #2 Wayne Brady? He is currently hosting "Don't Forget the Lyrics".

    ReplyDelete
  88. I noticed the pic of CZJ as well, but she really hasn't been on vacation...she's got a new movie out...oh ent...you confuse me sometimes!!!

    ReplyDelete
  89. I was thinking that #3 was JessSimpson, shes lost a LOT of weight lately, and shes nuts.
    allegedly.

    um, I hope its not Matt D. for #1, but I mean, *shrug* thats probably his "reputation".
    BUT! him getting married and having kid was so out of left field. It seemed to me, anyway. It almost felt like he was doing it because Ben was. But, people have always said that Ben/Matt are lovers rarararar upstage? lol

    ReplyDelete
  90. Jeff was in China when this incident occured. Therefore it must be Seacrest.
