Today's Blind Items

#1 - This two first name C list reality star from one of the cable reality shows that I don't like was out of the country and needed his coke. Needed it badly. Needed it so much that a club one night he asked every person in the club for some. When he finally found someone to give him some he took the coke and his girl and walked out without even saying thanks.

#2 - This former almost A list television funny man and stand up comedian had his own show for awhile. Since then he has bounced around from project to project. At one point not in the too distant past he could not go anywhere without being asked for photos and autographs. How times have changed. Over the weekend he was at Chateau Marmont eating lunch all by himself for over an hour and no one stopped by his table or even seemed to recognize him despite him making eye contact with everyone who walked by.

  11. I think Funny Girl is right.

  12. #1-newly crowned Project Runway winner Seth Aaron?

    ReplyDelete
  13. Well, I guess I don't have to watch the finale of Project Runway now, that is two weeks behind in Canada.

    ReplyDelete
  14. Oh, definitely Justin Bobby FTW!! He is all kinds of rude.

    ReplyDelete
  15. Blondegossip, it's a reality show Enty doesn't like. As far as I know, that list only includes 'The Hills.' ;)

    ReplyDelete
  16. I can't imagine it being Seth Aaron but someone asked what are cable reality shows, aren't they all network?, and in addition to the music channels (MTV, VH1) there's a whole slew of popular reality shows on non-network channels (for example: Bravo has America's Next Top Model and I think that's where Top Chef is, Lifetime has Project Runway, etc.)

    ReplyDelete
  17. Does Enty dislike Project Runway and would Seth Aaron be a C List reality star?

    ReplyDelete
  18. OFF TOPIC: Did anyone see the Tweets that Michael Lohan made about Lindsay having HIV?? wtf!?

    ReplyDelete
  19. #1 who cares

    #2 tim allen

    ReplyDelete
  20. Ray Romano and Jerry Seinfeld are FOREVER former A list television... who else?

    What about Michael Richards?

    ReplyDelete
  21. I really like the Tim Allen guess!

    ReplyDelete
  22. sorry, didn't mean to spoil PR ending for anyone-yikes, really sorry!

    just throwing it out there as a guess b/c of the 2 name thing & cable reality clues...

    ReplyDelete
  23. 1. Who cares?

    2. Martin Lawrence was the first to spring to mind even though he was just in "Death at a Funeral", but I also like the Tim Allen guess. I also thought about David Allen Grier (not sure about the spelling). He had his own show (DAG) and had supporting parts in some hit movies, but not much lately.

    ReplyDelete
  24. John, he's claiming his Twitter account was hacked, but who knows? Probably just another publicity stunt.

    #1 - Spencer Pratt
    #2 - toughie, but ditto on the Tim Allen guess

    ReplyDelete
  26. guarantee tim allen would still be recognized.
    #2 does jay mohr still have a series?

    ReplyDelete
  27. Ray Romano is starring in a series now (Men of a Certain Age); I don't think it's him.

    Martin Lawrence and Tim Allen are good gusses, but they are both famous for their run-ins with the law (Allen was in jail, Lawrence went nuts a few years back and had to be hospitalized/jailed), and Michael Richards had that n!&&3R thing. It seems to me that Enty would mention episodes in the blind. Or maybe that would make it too obvious.

    Not sure why this is a blind anyway. It's not like Enty will get sued for saying someone had lunch alone and nobody talked to him.

  29. Wayne Brady for 2?

    ReplyDelete
  30. #2 Arsenio...just what has he done lately? Plus he does not look much like his old self.

    ReplyDelete
  31. Isn't Wayne Brady doing Let's Make a Deal?

    I like Arsenio for this.

    tom green for number 2? he popped in my head right away

    ReplyDelete
  33. Justin Bobby FTW.

    ReplyDelete
  34. #2: sounds like tim allen. the mention of 'project to project' sounds like home improvement projects. he's practically dropped of the radar.

    ReplyDelete
  35. I hope #1 isn't Seth Aaron. I really like him.

    #2 Kevin James or Tim Allen

    ReplyDelete
  36. #1 is definitely Justin Bobby, and #2 is Andy Richter.

    ReplyDelete
  37. it's #1 that is a "two first name" celebrity but I didn't realize until now how many comedians (and comedy actors) fall under that: Martin Lawrence, Kevin James, Wayne Brady, Steve Harvey, Tim Allen, Jason Alexander, Andy Dick, Tracy Morgan...any more out there that I can't think of? If it had been a clue to #2 it wouldn't have helped at all.

    ReplyDelete
  38. What about Dave Chappelle for #2?

    ReplyDelete
  39. Tim Allen is still putting out movies, I don't think it's him, or anyone from Seinfeld.

    Maybe Drew Carey? He bounced around with that stand-up competition show for awhile, Family Feud, and so on. He also had laser eye surgery and doesn't look as recognizable without his glasses.

    ReplyDelete
  40. Late to the game, but I have another guess for #2 (don't care about #1):

    Christopher Titus?

    ReplyDelete
  41. Honestly, I figure # 2 is a shadow of his former self, so that is why. That leaves out Harvey, Lawrence, Allen, etc, as they are all still doing things, even if they are tanks or cartoon voices.

    I really thought of Dave Chapelle for #2 since he ran from his fame.

    ReplyDelete
  42. #2 sounds like Arsenio Hall. And I used to love his show.

    ReplyDelete
  43. #1 could be Ray Jay

    ReplyDelete
  44. Well, Tim Allen's got Toy Story 3 coming out Memorial Day weekend. I know it's only a voice over role, but the film will be a pretty big deal, and I expect to see him and Tom Hanks making the talk show circuit together soon. He was also instantly recognizable when he popped up in the audience of Dancing with the Stars a month ago.

    I don't know. Does he really need the work? Between Toy Story and his old sitcom, he should be flush for cash. I guess that's not the point of the blind, but I'm just throwing that out there.

    ReplyDelete
  45. # 2 is so NOT Seth Aaron from Project Runway. For starters, I actually know the guy (hey, someone from my neck of the woods, yay!) and he is one of the most genuine, talented, nice people you could ever hope to meet (also not a druggie). And, he is married- no girlfriend.

    ReplyDelete
  46. Omg, there's a Hills marathon on MTV today, and I'm watching the hideous Ricky Bobby -- he's an ugly, mean, passive-aggressive, unreliable, reclusive, unstable, schizoid freak. Coke for sure. Audrina, get out of there!

    ReplyDelete
  47. 1. Def. Justin Bobby. I've never watched The Hills, but I'm pretty sure Enty has mentioned hating this show...How much more of a first name, name can his be :P

    2. Great guesses everyone! It is vague and could be anyone. I think Seinfield, Alexander, Richards, Lawrence, James and Allen would all be still recognized. Also Drew Carey is on Price is Right, Right? My guess would be Arsenio! FTW

    ReplyDelete
  48. enty, please start posting today!!!! OMG SANDRA HAS A NEW BABY!!!!! this is crazy...

    ReplyDelete
  49. Justin "ricky" Bobby lmao...love it! You peeps crack me up

    ReplyDelete
  50. @Linnea I know and he is SOOOOO cute! He has the cutest little cheeks!

    ReplyDelete
  51. Definitely Ray J. I agree with Denise. Ray J in the Caribbean somewhere. The apple does not fall far from the tree.

    ReplyDelete
  52. For number 2, the first one I thought of was Paul Reiser. And since no one else mentioned him, I'm sticking with it.

    ReplyDelete
  53. #2 Is Ray Romano http://justjared.buzznet.com/2010/04/27/alexander-skarsgard-chateau-marmont-man/

    ReplyDelete
  54. linnea, i'm so with you on that- the sandra/jesse thing took the craziest fucking twist this morning, and it's a positive one, for once!

    ReplyDelete
  55. #2: Dennis Miller? A-list for comedians, he's a "television funnyman", doesn't seem to require being an actor. And bounced a lot since HBO show.
