Four For Friday
#1 I want to say that as far as I know Ice-T is not running a call girl ring. But, as a former pimp, if you told me he was, I wouldn't be shocked. What is shocking is that this totally straight A-/B+ film actor from a famous family has a piece (no pun intended) of an escort agency that caters exclusively to gay men. Seems as if our actor got a little drunk the other night, was talking to a waiter and when he found out the waiter was gay and looking for work, gave the waiter a phone number. Our actor said to tell who answered that our actor sent him, and that he could get some work. The phone number was to an escort agency.
#2 This recent same sex non romantic breakup is definitely not traditional. However, it centers around traditional reasons for a breakup such as hitting on a significant other and wanton drug use that almost led to the arrest of our couple.
#3 From AP-This jet set actor/actress B list couple took a few minutes out for themselves at a party the other night. The couple spent most of the night arguing about what the wife was wearing, and made up by having a quickie in the restroom. Probably would have got away with no one noticing, except that she was rather vocal and has a very interesting pet name for her husband.
#4 This jackass is back. Hiding his insecurity through a web of hateful speech, this recently divorced C list film actor spent an entire night drinking with two friends and finding whatever opportunity they could to harass this C list actress formerly of a very popular network show. The show has shot several people to the upper echelons of the "list" but not her. Our actress was there to be seen and to try and get her career jumpstarted again, but had to leave early when reduced to tears at least twice by the jackass and his friend.
#2, Spencer Pratt and Brody Jenner.
ReplyDeleteOr, Lauren Conrad and Heidi Montag.
Can we get a definition of "jet set actor" - I would say John Travolta but...I won't even go any further.
ReplyDelete#1, Michael Douglas. No particular reason, just sounds right to me.
ReplyDelete1. Ben Affleck
ReplyDelete#1: Nicolas Cage (nephew of Francis Ford Coppola)?
ReplyDeleteIs Jason Schwartzman (also another nephew of Francis Ford Coppola) A-/B+ list?
#4 - Johnny Knoxville....but who is the actress?? mischa barton?
ReplyDeleteThe actress in #4 sounds like someone from ER, maybe.
ReplyDelete#1 is ABSOLUTELY Charlie Sheen
ReplyDelete> he loves "escorts"
> he was accused by Denise of being on gay porn sites
> he was at the Tranny event the other night
#2 - John Cusak and Jeremy Piven
ReplyDelete#3 - no clue
#4 - maybe Lisa Kudrow for the actress
no clue on the asshole as there is certainly no
shortage of them here in L.A.
If #1 is Charlie Sheen, it wouldn't be shocking news. Ent's clue starts with "what is shocking".
ReplyDelete#4 actress could be our former "kindness" Maura Tierney. Although she's been on ER long enough to be A/B List. She was on Newsradio forever, ER forever, but has only done 2 notable films (Instinct w/ Hopkins and GoodingJr. that I believe her husband at the time was the director, and Forces of Nature w/ Affleck & Bullock.)
ReplyDeleteI just want to know what the pet name in #3 is :)
1. A Baldwin brother?
ReplyDelete2. The Corey's?
3. First thought was Travolta and Preston, but...
4. Def Knoxville but not sure on the actress.
3 Jennifer Connelly and Paul Bellamy
ReplyDelete4 what about Rachel Bilson as the actress?
On #4, Jackass=Johnny Knoxville seems too obvious. Plus, Johnny did more TV than film. I'm guessing "jackass" refers to somebody who was one of the "jackass" blind items here. The "web" part made me think of Spider-Man, but maybe I'm off on that. Could the actress be Maggie Grace of Lost? She has been out and about a lot lately. Hmmm.... And maybe Ryan Phillippe?
ReplyDeletehlillywhite:
ReplyDeleteI think you are correct about #2, The Corey's. Yahoo has says they are no longer friends.
http://omg.yahoo.com/corey-feldman--corey-haim:-no-longer-friends/news/3214
Maggie Grace has been out and about lately because she has a movie to promote: jane austen book club
ReplyDeleteA- definitely NOT Charlie Sheen, he's in a custody battle and besides, enty said it was "shocking", and it wouldn't be a shock to know he's involved. Based on what I know of NC, it's Nic Cage.
ReplyDeleteb.) have no idea
c.) Michael Douglas/CZJ are B list? If so, they're definitely jet setters so I'd go with them. Travolta is A list, I think.
d.) Johnny Knoxville. I would think, based on the item, that enty wouldn't particularly care if the jerk is outed. It's not like it affects anyone negatively, and it might even help. Knoxville, definitely. you don't mention "jackass" twice in a paragraph and not want people to go there. He's c list, he's recently divorced, he's a jerk.
yeah and don't forget, travolta and kelly preston are in a sham marriage- he's 100% gay. My friend knows her manager.
ReplyDeletethe "shocking" part applies to Charlie Sheen only in that it is a gay sevice.
ReplyDeletewasn't anyone else wondering what he was doing at that event last week?
#1. keifer?
ReplyDelete#3 would make sense with Paul Bettany and Jennifer Connely if you look at the hideous dress she was wearing the other night, and the look on Paul's face as they photographed them together with her in it.
ReplyDelete#1 being Charlie Sheen makes sense in the whole "famous family" thing....his dad and his brother...
i like the Coreys for number 2¡¡¡
ReplyDeletednfrommn, what do you mean former "kindness"?...i can't seem to find the reference.
ReplyDelete#3. eva/tony or pam/rick?
ReplyDeletefor #3....could it be jennifer connelly and oh uh whats his name.... i think ent had a pic of them up from an event.
ReplyDeleteMaura is still on ER, isn't she? Besides, Maura would give somebody hell instead of crying. She kicks ass.
ReplyDelete1. Charlie Sheen - come on, it would be a shock that he's involved in a GAY escort service.
ReplyDelete2. The Coreys
3. What about Jen & Ben?
4. Ryan Phillipe for the Jackass (Ent did say recently divorced). No idea who he was harassing.
The Corey's is a good guess for number 2!

ReplyDeleteIf you've read reports by Denise Richards weeks ago that he's out looking at gay porn, then news of his being part of a gay escort service is NOT shocking.
ReplyDelete1-Sheen
ReplyDelete2-Corey's-they filmed in Vancouver and Haim was strung out most of the time.It was quite sad really.
3-Bettany/Conolly
4-Johnny Knoxville/Mischa Barton..I heard a long time ago that Cisco Adler and him got into a scrap.
god we're good here.
i'm not "shocked" if it's sheen..was he drunk? is he drinking in public?
ReplyDeleteBI # 1
ReplyDeleteFamous acting families... why is it I always think of the Baldwins and Sheen/Estevez men? I feel like I am missing another family. Cause if not these two group of men, are very busy being the center of all the family centered BI's of late. haha!
BI # 2
Those Corey's do seem to fit this one...
BI # 3
Ummm... when I think jet set... I think of Pitt/Jolie, Cruise/Holmes or those horrible Beckhams. I am blank on this one.
BI # 4
Okay... not long ago... the "jackass" of a couple of BI's was unmasked by ENT as Jeremy Piven. So anytime I see "jackass" I think Piven.
Besides that random thought... I find reading this item looks like Ted C. wrote it. Having over 40 words in one sentence makes it too confusing to follow.
#1 no clue.
ReplyDeleteSO yes for the Coreys for #2.
#3 Wonder if the nickname Jennifer Connelly has for her husband is something like "Betty"! Heh.
#4 I think "hateful speech" is the key word here for figuring out the guy. Maggie Grace is a good guess for the actress, but there might be others.
@ Eileen & Sarah: "Jackass" and "Kindness" are ongoing themes for specific kinds of BIs on this site. While it might be Knoxville in this case, the fact that the word jackass is mentioned twice in the item is just as likely not a reference to that movie/tv show. Ent always refers to people guilty of bad behaviour as jackass. It's one of the labels you can click to find previous BIs in this same category.
I know I sound like a dry cleaner, but people gotta read the labels.
#1 -- "from a famous family" could mean that his siblings are famous. Like Owen or Luke Wilson. Or maybe it's Kurt Russell or David Arquette (they both were in 3000 Miles from Graceland with Ice T).
ReplyDeletehez- i was wondering about"hateful speech" also. it reminded me of a past BI about a drunk using racial slurs....
ReplyDeleteLong time lurker - BUT has anyone considered Cheri Oteri for #4 - she was on SNL - same time as Will Farrell and never really went anywhere. She was recently in a pic at some party....?
ReplyDeletehow about john cusack for #1? i consider him A-/ B+...
ReplyDeleteI guess I'm out of the loop. Jennifer Connelly and Paul Bettany are dating? That is a much yummier couple than Brangelina.
ReplyDeletegotcha, thanks hez!
ReplyDeletewebsites are reporting that Ellen DeGeneres did not show up to film her show today. This is the woman who wheeled a hospital bed on set in order to film.
ReplyDeleteSomething tells me we have a winner for the "Power Lesbian Couple on the rocks"

ReplyDeletehow about tara reid for the actress in #4? she had a recurring role on scrubs a few seasons back and that was about the last good prodject she was a part of.
ReplyDelete1. Charlie Sheen.
ReplyDelete2. Don't know, it says same sex relationship. Not sure.
3.Paul Bettamy (I think that is how it is spelled) and jennifer connelly.
4. Ryan Phillipe
Captivagirl - good thinking on John Cusack. Rereading this, he fits.
ReplyDeleteNo where does Ent say #1 is married or has ever been married. Nor does he mention single.
On the other hand, what about Jake Gyllenhaal? He comes from a famous family.
This comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDelete#1 John Cusack - Miss X you sold me on the not married part, and Cusack would be shocking.
ReplyDelete#2 The Corey's
#3 Paul Bettamy and Jennifer Connelly
#4 Johnny Knoxville because he's recently divorced.
EL please tell us the pet name! =]
I dont really think Charlie Sheen or Keifer are really film actors anymore. They make their main living from television so I nix those two for #1. Same for Alec Baldwin. I actually like the Michael Douglas or Nic Cage guess for some reason.
ReplyDeleteFor #2 ENT mentions the word "breakup" twice. He also says "traditional" twice and when i hear that word I think of weddings.
The Breakup = Vince Vaughan
The Wedding Crashers = Vince Vaughan and Owen Wilson
Drugs = Owen Wilson
So, my pick for #2 is Vince and Owen.
I have missed why so many people are on the Paul B and Jennifer C train for #3. "Jet set" indicates a couple like Brad and Ange or Tom and Katie etc. Or even Michael Douglas and CZJ. I think the BI is too vague so I have no idea.
#4 couldnt be Mischa Barton because although her career has stalled since she left the OC she was definitely the most famous/popular from the whole cast. If anyone "shot to the upper echalons" because of the show, it was her. Definitely Johnny Knoxville but im thinking more along the lines of Michelle Trachtenberg of Buffy the Vampire Slayer or someone similar.
#3 first thought was Melanie Griffith and Antonio Banderas. No idea why.
ReplyDeleteNow if I can just get that out of my head . . .
For #4--Not sure about the jackass..but I wonder if the popular network show is That 70s Show, and it's Mila or Laura.
ReplyDelete1# sounds more like joaquin phoenix style. but shocking would be Clooney (dad Showmaster Nick Clooney, aunt jazz singer Rosemary Clooney, uncle director José Ferrer)
ReplyDeletestill, i can not figure out if the "actor from a famous family" has to be from an acting family, and if so, would it be sibling related like the baldwins or generation related like the douglas/sheens. The family can be famous for any other entertainment stuff or any other successful business 8like julia dreyfuss):
Some other hot candidates
Sheen/Estevez
Baldwins
Douglas
Arquette
Coppola
Carradine
Bridges
Farrow
Fonda
Griffith
Hawn/Hudson/Russel
Keach
O´Neal
Penn
Voight
Plus Canada
Sutherlands
France
Delon
Depardieu
UK
Fiennes
So ent, rule some out please. :-)
#2 is for sure the Corey's....they've both had problems with drugs before and in that reality show Corey Haim definitely has his moments with Corey Feldman's wife.
ReplyDeletehttp://tinseltowncircus.blogspot.com
MadlyB, J.Conn and "Betty" have been married since 2003. They have 1 child.
ReplyDeletefrom Hez...
ReplyDeleteI know I sound like a dry cleaner, but people gotta read the labels.
I tried but I tore off the label and threw it out. And was arrested for it.
Anyone know a good lawyer?
but does anyone consider Clooney and Gyllenhaal "totally straight" -- I don't think either one of them would be "shocking" for this BI...
ReplyDeletenumber one - michael douglas came to mind - thinking of his son cameron being involved in/part owner of the escort service as he was just busted again, but then i realized it was THE actor who was the partial owner and Douglas will always be A-List as far as Hollywood is concerned,
ReplyDeletenumber two - too bad George and Brad are still friends, this would be "hot" if so..lol especially since angelina supposedly hates george...coreys sound on target.
number three - jennifer and paul are jetsetters since he is english and she is american...she just wore the most god awful ugly dress in history with equally as revolting shoes. go fug yourself has a great picture of this outfit so ugly a clown wouldn't wear it! yes, i'd love to hear the pet name!
number four - i would think knoxville too. popular show - if the show was off the air, wouldn't ET state that? cheri oteri sounds like a great guess, but i can't see her busting into tears since she is a comedian and she could find a way to laugh it off...i would think someone who was NOT a comedian...
Kelly, it's not Ellen DeGeneres. She didn't show up to film because she's very upset that a rescue dog that wasn't getting along with her other pets, and that she gave to her hairdresser's daughter, has been taken away by the rescue people. She's gone from being extremely upset, and breaking down on her show (see TMZ for clips), to begging her fans to stop sending the rescue people threats. It's not her, she's just going through this other bullshit.
ReplyDeleteJerry, OMG! tell me you did not rip the tag off the mattress! You're in BIG trouble
ReplyDelete@ Snow: I stand my gut feeling that the interesting pet name Connelly has for her hubby is "Betty".
ReplyDeleteMakes sense, no?
Snow...Yeah I ended up seeing pics of Jennifers outfit after I posted my comment. Now I understand and think its them simply because of the horrendous outfit lol.
ReplyDeleteMaybe "Betty" just didn't want to be stomped on by those FUG shoes!
ReplyDeleteThe first thing I thought for 4 was Lisa Kudrow.
ReplyDeleteI notice Perez has a thing about Mike Myers up today, with assistants that have to hold an umbrella to protect him from the sun. Gee, that kind of reminds me of a blind item from probably a MONTH ago.
ReplyDeleteOh but wait, ENT makes all this stuff up. Isn't it funny how life imitates art???
I was thinking the same thing Brendalove. Although, Myers is shooting in Toronto and Enty is supposed to be in California isn't he? (He did say he witnessed the diva personally didn't he?)
ReplyDeleteI think #1 is definitely Nic Cage. A-/B+, has done only film, from a famous family (Coppola) and the reference to wearing/needing a hair piece.
ReplyDeleteDoes anyone remember the BI a while back about a teen from an ensemble show who is pregnant? I don't know if that was solved or not but I couldn't sleep the other night and was watching a bunch of Degrassi episodes back to back and the girl who plays Emma is definitely getting bigger. At first it looked like bad wardrobe choices (loose fitting flowy tops) because this girl used to be stick thin but the last episode she was wearing a sweater and it showed a rounded belly. I went on IMDB and people posted there that they thought she might be pregnant as well.
ReplyDeleteI didnt take the "piece" comment to mean that the actor needs a hair piece. I took it to mean a sexual piece. Otherwise it wouldnt be a pun because he is talking about an escort agency, not about hair.
ReplyDeleteWhat about Ben Affleck for #1. He was recently seen hammered in public?...just saying. :)
ReplyDeleteno, i haven't read thru everyone's responses, but what about the Corey's for #2? just read about them 'breaking up' on bricksandstones. Just thought I'd throw it out there...
ReplyDelete
