Today's Blind Items

#1 - To me, this one was a little heartbreaking to hear. This once troubled actor who has peaked and valleyed between A and C list his entire career depending on his drug use was thought to be clean and enjoying some big success once again. However, it is just that success that may have caused his most recent slip. Oh, he slipped alright. Twice is what I hear. Separate nights. The question is going to be whether it was truly just a slip or if this is going to be another long, twisted spiral downward.

#2 - What mullet haired singer cheated on his current wife and ex-wife with both males and females?

    at least #2 doesn't say "and daughter".

  6. second all of the guesses, that makes me sad about RDJ, hopefully it was just a slip, he's so talented.

    ReplyDelete
  7. aw man...if #1 truly is RDJ...how sad. truly sad...

    ReplyDelete
  8. Billy Ray has been married twice. According to Wikipedia he has a child from another relationship conceived around the same time as Miley.

    Sadly, I agree with RDJ for the first one. *sadface*

  9. Wow you guys are quick!

    BRC into guys too?
    Never would have thought that.

    ReplyDelete
  10. and yes, BRC was married once before to Cindy Smith from 86-91

    ReplyDelete
  11. Whoa. Those are good BI's. Saucy and easy.

    ReplyDelete
  12. #1 Robert Downey Jr - I just hope it's only a slip and not a relapse. I want to see Iron Man 2 & 3

    #2 Billy Ray (I'm embarrassed to admit having a crush on him way back when Achy Breaky came out...and I can just imagine the flack I'd catch today)

    ReplyDelete
  13. Agree, but I am so saddened by JDJ, I just think he's so talented.

    BRC is a piece of crap, pure and simple. D-bag.

    ReplyDelete
  14. poor RDJ >8(

    addiction is a horrifying thing.

    ReplyDelete
  15. Sadly I think #1 is RDJ

    and #2 is BRC.....always thought he would be into guys too

    ReplyDelete
  16. Gotta go with Robert Downy Jr. That really sucks cause he is so frickin talented. Just imagine what he could have done if drugs weren't such a major thing in his life. :(

    Mullet makes me think Billy Ray. I'm assuming the mullet is past tense? Are there any other mullets out there?

    ReplyDelete

    I agree Ed. Something tells me that Billy Ray sleeps with anything and everything.

    ReplyDelete
  18. Hey Adrian, do you think #1 could be Ben? LOL, JK.

    I thought RDJ had been looking really rough lately. That is very sad to hear.

    So, Billy swung it both ways huh?

    ReplyDelete
  19. So then RDJ did the booger sugar on the press tour, is that what we're saying? Is that why Lainey was being so weird the last time she posted a pic about him?

    ReplyDelete
  20. Rod Stewart kind of has a mullet...

    ReplyDelete
  21. Oh Robert...(sigh).

    He was probably feeling on top of the world after the great Iron Man numbers came out and convinced himself that he could do it just one more time. For the good ole' days.

    Billy Rae is just gross to me. Ugh.

    ReplyDelete
  22. califblondy-- I was going to put Affleck as a joke, but I figured once again someone might figure he fits! lol!

    ReplyDelete
  23. NO, RDJ. NO.
    Argh, I just want to shake that man and hug him all at once! It is heartbreaking! Even more sad is that it's not completely surprising, since he's admitted in interviews that he always crashed after filming in the past. He needs to be constantly working, and he's in the looking at new projects point now. Plus I've been suspicious about how his "health kick + vitamins + exercise = sober" tactics would hold up against finding success again. Argh, I wish it were someone else, but "peaked and valleyed between A and C" and big success again fit him TOO perfectly.

    Oh, and ew Billy Ray Cyrus. Ew.

    ReplyDelete
  24. Well there's always Tobey Keith for #2. Which would be pretty damn funny to me!

    too sad if #1 is RDJ. I just love him.

    ReplyDelete
  25. adrian..lol i was thinking Affleck if not RDJ..he has gotten so gaunt lately.

    Billy Ray..really? wow that is interesting.

    ReplyDelete
  26. I bet gossipmonger will guess Affleck

    ReplyDelete
  27. That is so disappointing about RDJ. Just say no, dude!

    I think BRC is too easy for #2...and I don't see him with guys. I like the Rod Stewart guess.

    ReplyDelete
  28. jax & jw12--that is the Affleck irony--he really fits every blind. Somehow you can squeeze him into everything, & it will kind of work.

    Just a thought--is he an entertainment lawyer?, then we would have our EL's identity.

    ReplyDelete
  29. Wow...you gotta act quick here at CDandN...

    RDJ popped into my head near the end of the 2nd line...

    and the mullet has to be BRC...but who cares???

    ReplyDelete
  30. not so blind items is more like it. soo sad...i was really rooting for RDJr :(

    Seems like RDJ will never go cold turkey. Guess he felt like he was on top of the world and what better way than to go snowing again or whatever he is into.

    The mullet head I know of is Billy Ray. Didn't know he swings both ways. Wonder if Miley comes to website to read the blinds LOL.

    ReplyDelete
  32. Mullet makes me think Billy Ray. I'm assuming the mullet is past tense? Are there any other mullets out there?

    A picture of BRC with mullet in full sha-wing is at the bottom of this page.

    ReplyDelete
  33. I thought of Colin Ferrel and Robert Downey JR for 1, but RDJ is probably a better guess.

    ReplyDelete
  34. does Affleck sing?
    Here is a photo of him with a mullet,
    kinda fits!

    ReplyDelete
  35. Colin Ferrel with a slip-up would not be heartbreaking; RDJ, on the other hand, yes.

    So does that mean Gwynnie is the A list actress who did lines of coke off his chest???

    ReplyDelete
  36. Adrian, good work! You've got Ben working for both blinds today. What do we do when the blind is female? Claim Ben's had a sex change?

    ReplyDelete
  37. califblondy...give me time..I'll find that yet!
    affleck = 1 size fits all

    ReplyDelete
  38. Just because Ent vents at Billy Ray and shows a photo of him with the largest mullet on the planet, you will sully BRC reputation?? Wow, pretty slim :)

    I'm always happy to blame Affleck for just about anything. It's fun.

    But...its RDJ. And I'm almost in tears. I've been Team RDJ for many years, through the worst, and will continue to be Team RDJ. But I'm afraid if he relapses, no studios will take a chance on him again. Please keep it together.

    ReplyDelete
  42. Agree with the majority on these, RDJ and BRC.

    Addiction is a helluva thing. I have similar periods of piety-sobriety and binge-fests. Only my drug is sugar. You always think you can handle doing it "occasionally" and you really can't imagine your life without it.

    I really hadn't figured BRC for a dude-dabbler, but anything is possible.

  44. Brendalove: how you feel about blaming Affleck for everything? That's my Keanu Reeves Stance, heh heh heh!!!


    So, for #1 I'm going to say either crowd-pleasers RDJ or Affleck, I'm gonna stand-by-my-druggie Reeves OR we could all be wrong and it's Owen Wilson.

    #2 Billy Ray. Or, wait...does the cheeseball in question have a mullet, like, presently?

    ReplyDelete
  45. Oh, gods, RDJ. I just want to pat his little hair and put him in my pocket for safekeeping. Poor thing.

    ReplyDelete
  46. if no 1 is RDJ then i am not gloating over his slip-up at all. he is one of my favorite actors and i hop this is temporary insanity on his part.

    If no 2 is billy ray, then Disney needs to fire his ass right now. I do hate hypocrites.

    ReplyDelete
  47. It would be heartbreaking if this is RDJr, he has worked very hard to get to a sober/drug free place for several years now, so I really hope it is not him.

    Has anyone considered Tom Hanks for number 1? Mostly an A lister but not early in his television career, the Big reference, and his son is in todays photos, he is the first one I though of, the second being Robin Williams.

    Would not surprise me at all if number 2 is Billy Ray.

    ReplyDelete
  48. I'm afraid #1 is probably RDJ, and that is indeed heartbreaking.

    #2 has to be BRC. I did like the Rod Stewart guess, and even though he does have what you could call a mullet, it doesn't suck on him. BRC and "mullet" will forever be associated in my mind.

    ReplyDelete
  49. Oh I had so much hope for RDJ - now hoping for a slip and not a spiral.

    ReplyDelete
  50. What about Matthew Perry for #1? I saw a pic of him recently & he's skinny again (he always seems to lose weight when he's in the throes of addictions...then uses food to replace the drugs). Don't get me wrong, I think he's a great actor.

    ReplyDelete
  51. #1 - anybody but RDJ, please... :o(
    #2 - ewww, BRC, ewww

    ReplyDelete
  52. While the reveals can be a bit disappointing (sorry EL) at times. How many reveals will actually be Ben???

    I'm voting zero just 'cuz I'm always wrong.

    ReplyDelete
  53. All of them, of course!

    ReplyDelete
  54. I hope its not Robert Downey, Jr. I would be heartbroken.

    The mullet explains it all doesn't it.

    ReplyDelete
  55. sad.. sad about RDJ... loved him in Iron Man...

    and Adrian, Ben A. for Ent? LoL! and ewwww...

    ReplyDelete
  56. If it is RDJ, he should quit the business or be an actor in small theater. If you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen. Otherwise, he's like anyone else in a dangerous job - like those people who clean skyscrapers or bridges. There is always risk involved.

    Billy Ray Cyrus for #2? But isn't he a devout, g**-fearing CHRISTIAN? If it's true about BRC, then the fruit doesn't fall far from the tree and Miley's precocious posing in Vanity Fair is maybe BRC training his daughter for an early start in adult life. :-D

    ReplyDelete
  57. I think we should think a little out of the box here. Remember mullet headed singer Richard Marx? He always struck me as playing for both teams.

    ReplyDelete
  58. Affleck fits for every blind because he's a bland potato of a man.

    ReplyDelete
  59. BRC got rid of the mullet near the last season of DOC (I can't believe I know that). That show ended in 2004. He has been sporting the KU frosted bob flat iron thing ever since. This blind makes it seem like he is still sporting the mullet.

    ReplyDelete
  60. PS. totally agree that #1 is RDJ and I hope it is just a slip.

    ReplyDelete
  61. That breaks my heart. He was the poster boy for making it through to the other side. Please, god, let it just be a slip.

    ReplyDelete
  62. Can someone explain to me how a "blind item" can be trusted? What is a "blind item" anyway?

    ReplyDelete
  63. It can't be trusted. A blind item could be a outright lie or a mistake. However, some blind items are real, and it's fun guessing.

    ReplyDelete
  64. Sorry, but everyone slips on something - diets, smoking, drugs... the key is how you treat the slip. Here's hoping he works through it - and that his wife stays solid.
