NY Post Blind Items
WHICH elderly co-owner of a Hamptons hot spot has the locals buzzing because he's having an affair with the very tall, thin, blond wife of a famous songwriter? The melodious husband knows about it and isn't happy .
WHICH music mogul treats his superstar wife like she's a servant? But she doesn't mind. "She's Southern and thinks men should be the boss," laughs one friend .
WHICH veteran real estate broker flabbergasted old friends by claiming in an interview he graduated from a prestigious European prep school? "I've known him for 30 years," says one pal. "He's from The Bronx."
#2 - Jay-Z and Beyonce
ReplyDelete1. Is David Foster still married?
ReplyDelete1. JCM & his model/wife from his video (almay?)
ReplyDelete2. J-Z - Beyonce from Tx
3. Donald?
I thought maybe Thalia and her husband, that bad news Sony CEO that Mariah Carey was married to. She's Mexican, and Catholic I think, very traditional household.
ReplyDeleteMaybe not Mellencamp for #1 - looks like they mostly live in Indiana. But Elaine is tall and blond! I hope it is not them actually
ReplyDeleteI doubt Bouncy's mom and dad would let Jay-z do anything other than worship her. Letting him do whatever he wants to their other daughter is another story.
ReplyDeletemargarita, i think they've filed for divorce.
ReplyDelete#1 - Sting and Trudie? But I thought they had an agreement it was ok to stray.
ReplyDeleteMy first thought was JayZ and Beyonce. She is a superstar and from Texas. I honestly can't picture Beyonce being willing to be anyones servant, but oh well. My other thought was Tommy Motola and Thalia. Is she considered a superstar?
ReplyDeleteI think Beyonce comes off as being a lot more independent than she is. Thalia is from Mexico. Mexico is in the south but "southern" is a term that usually refers to an American.
ReplyDeletePaul Simon & Edie Brickell. They live in Connecticut.
ReplyDelete(Paul SImon/Edie Brickell is my guess for the first blind in the Hamptons, not the southern wife thing)
ReplyDelete@ace: Edie Brickell is neither tall, nor blonde.
ReplyDeleteWhat about Burt Bacharach's wife Jane? Is she tall and blonde?
is edie very tall and blonde tho?
ReplyDeletedaver, i like the burt b. guess. yes, jane is tall and blonde.
ReplyDeleteCould Gwyneth Paltrow be the tall, thin, blond wife of a famous songwriter???
ReplyDeleteI though David Foster and...um..whatever her name is...used to date Elvis, apparently. For the first one. I don't know who the elderly co-owner of the hot spot is.
ReplyDeleteAnd, as much as it seems "too obvious", I thought JayZ and Beyonce for number 2. "All the women, who innepennant, throw yo hands up at me"...*LOL* Riiiiight.
Burt B and wife Jane for #2, def sounds like it. You can really only classify him as a songwriter. He might dabble in other things, but he's first and foremost a songwriter.
ReplyDeleteJames Taylor and his wife Caroline. She is blonde, not sure about tall and thin. Isn't she famous for her hookups. I don't who the elderly hotspot owner would be tho.
ReplyDeleteBilly Joel for the songwriter?
ReplyDeletecoco, i thought of him and looked up pics of his wife but she's got brown hair. i think ms snarky is right in saying the term 'songwriter' is probably someone who does that and nothing more. daver's guess of burt b. sounds on the money.
ReplyDeletemelodius does sound like Burt.
ReplyDeleteJerry Delafeema (sp) for the Hamptons hot spot owner? No idea who the tall, thin blonde wife or the songwriter are.
ReplyDeleteEdie Brickell and Paul Simon are interesting for the #2 guess. I don't know if he's bossy, but I've heard many times that Paul Simon believes himself to be incredibly precious as a talent and is very protective of his work; his ego is supposed to be staggering. I always thought of Edie as a hippie, but she might be very traditional in her personal relationships.
1*gwyneth paltrow?
ReplyDelete2*jay-z and beyonce?
Reese, nice hit.
ReplyDeleteJerry Della Femina for the elderly hot spot owner. He's 72 or so, and owns Della Femina's in the Hamptons, and a green market, in East Hampton. He's a huge ad guy and writes a humor column in the Hamptons.
So #1 sounds like Burt Bacharach's wife Jane, who is tall, slim and blonde, and Jerry Della Femina.
ReplyDeleteAnd it's them even if it's not them, cause they fit perfectly! We are super sleuths.
I've been trying to figure out the realtor, but found that I don't care very much.
Although I did find a guy named Joe Beninati who was interviewed by The New Yorker who's from the Bronx and went to Choate. But that's in CT, so I figured it's a non-guess.
ReplyDeletep.s. Molly - what coast are you on? if you don't mind me asking. I've been wondering how split the commentors are between East / West. I'm a NYer.
ReplyDelete#2- David Geffen/Keanu Reeves
ReplyDeleteWait... is Keanu from the South?
I thought of Tommy Mottola (sp? Mariah's ex hubby) when I first read #2 but I agree that Southern would refer to an American. Jigga and Beyonce for the win.
ReplyDeleteDon't care about the other two.
1. It's a songwriter's wife -- not a singer/songwriter's wife. I like the Burt Bachrach guess.
ReplyDelete2. Jay-Z and Beyonce. I think she's very traditional, and she seems to have always been under her father's control. She went from her father's house to her husband's.
3. Dunno
kraymond19 - yeah Keanu is from the south - southern Ontario.
