Daily Mirror Blind Item - Part Two

Which ageing Hollywood pin-up is now more of a down 'n' out drunk? He's still well-known in the industry but spends most of his afternoons in a South London boozer, drowning his sorrows...

  1. I don't think it's Burt. He has a couple of things in the pipe and just seems like he has too much of a support system for that...what former big names are across the pond now??

  2. Aw, that's sad.

    Pin-up does sound like Burt. Who could forget the Cosmo centerfold? Hot stuff back in the day.

  3. Well, I went for the "Down and Out" hint...as in "Down and Out in Beverlt Hills"...two stars are Nick Nolte and Richard Dreyfuss...we all know Nolte's a Drunk, crazy nut, but I wouldn't call him "well-known" (more like infamous), and I doubt he's hanging out in London...Richard Dreyfuss doesn't fit either.
    I'll ask my mom who the hot Hollywood pin-ups were...LOL

  7. I don't think Sean lives in London. Hasn't he been having health issues lately?

    Is Hugh Grant considered aging? He used to be quite the hottie when he first started out.

  8. Richard Dryfuss was spotted in the Hustler Club in NYC a few days ago all day. I read it on Page Six. Sad.

  9. I thought of Hugh Grant when I first read this. What's he been doing lately?

  10. In support of my Sean Connery guess, I think he had a centerfold in Cosmo, too, way back when the dinosaurs roamed the Earth. And I think his health issues are probably related to drinking. I have no idea where he lives.

    That said, I have to like the Hugh Grant guess, too. He could be drowning his big public sorrows about Liz Hurley. And there was that photo of him a few months ago looking lewd and partied out with two much younger women. I just HATE that he could be considered aging, though---I think he's younger than me. Ack.

  11. I doubt it's Sean Connery, as he's a rabid Scottish Nationalist and hates the English. In fact he's such a supporter of Scots nationalism he lives in the Bahamas or some such tax haven.

    Hugh Grant is sadly aging, but not heard of him drunk around town. It could be Richard Dreyfus.

  12. It could NOT be Richard Dreyfus. If it were him it would say ageing Hollywood actor or comic actor or anything except pin-up. Dreyfus even in his prime was never sexy like that.

  13. Agree. Richard Dreyfus would never ever ever be considered pin-up material.

  14. When Sean was interviewed by Barbara Walters years ago, he lived near the ocean.

  15. what about Michael Kaine?

  17. Don Johnson. Total pin-up when he did Miami Vice.

    He spends a lot of time in London with the theater; not sure if he's there now but I think it's him.

  18. This is s-o-o-o-o-o-o Jude Law. Baldness and a trashy lifestyle ruined his career.

  19. Am I the only one whose poor brains are filthy with the image of Hasselhoff and the puppies from Cosmo in the 80's? He's not English, but i didn't want to be the only one with that image in my head, LOL. Maybe it is Jude law after all. I actually thought he was pretty talented for a second there....

    My money is on Jude Law. But hey, I suck at gambling.

    Hugh Grant isn't down and out by any means. Then again, he does like his spirits.

    Michael Caine is a gem, I can't see him called a pin-up, though.

  21. Ragdoll- I saw that picture too... it was borderline animal abuse! Who uses dogs to hide their junk!

  22. Jude Law cannot be considered "ageing" already. He might be a drunk in a pub but does not fit this particular profile.
