BuzzFoto Blind Item

There are rumors swirling within the inner circle of this celebrity about her secret past. We all know about her rags to riches story, but what we don’t know is that she lived the life of prostitution for two years to get by.

Not Oprah Winfrey.

  2. Mooshki and I have the same brain. Swank!

    (Swank should be a verb.)

  3. i was thinkng swank as well, but really, what would be the connection/correlation to Oprah?

  4. HALLE....WHEN SHE WAS IN NEW YORK

  5. I'm throwing SJP into the mix, mostly because I just read an article in which she talked again about having grown up on welfare.

  6. Hilary Swank is a good guess. She had a real trailer trash upbringing.

  7. great guess on Swank!

  8. I'm going with Fergie since she was a meth head. FTW.

  9. SJP MADE IT AS A TEEN....SO WHO KNOWS....HILARY HIT L.A AT ABOUT 17...VERY YOUNG...

    ReplyDelete
  10. Actually, didn't SJP make it as a child? She starred in Annie on Broadway.

    I wish this had a more specific label rather than "celebrity."

    Like the Halle Berry guess.

  11. I guess I was the only one who first thought of Oprah until I saw the last sentence.

    After that I've got nothing. There are tons of rags to riches stories but none as lucrative as Oprah's so this person may also be a billionaire.

    What other female celebrity is wearing the "rags to riches self made billionaire" hat?

    That should narrow it down to a handful.

  12. Oh and if Halle made a living as a prostitute before making it in Hollywood that just wouldn't be very surprising.

    I know she said that her mom wouldn't help her out when she was trying to break into acting because she needed to make it on her own so yeah she could have been a prostitute.

    Not saying this is her though but just wouldn't be surprised.

  14. For some reason Sandra Lee popped into my head right away.

  15. Jill don't tease like that. How fucking AWESOME would that be?

    J.K. Rowling??

    ReplyDelete
  16. charlize theron or hillary swank

  17. I thought Madonna too! She is the only one as big as the Big O. I thought Madonna's father helped her out when she came to New York AND she was from an upper middle class family. Madonna's father was some sort of engineer and did quite well. I think if Madonna was a hooker (makes sense) she would have admitted it.

    ReplyDelete
  18. Mariah Carey or Whitney Houston?

    ReplyDelete
  19. Oh, Madonna makes TOTAL sense.

    Great guess.

    ReplyDelete
  20. I don't get the feeling it's an actress. The non Oprah hint made me think of Rachel Ray. Doesn't O produce her talk show?

    ReplyDelete
  21. Shania will have a reality show on Oprah's network in 2011 - so my guess is Shania.

    ReplyDelete
  22. I think it's Mariah Carey.

    ReplyDelete
  23. This might be a little odd, but since celebrity is vague, what about JK Rowling? She's a rags to riches millionaire. But she also doesn't strike me as the type, so it's kind of a wild guess.

    ReplyDelete
  24. I don't think Madonna's childhood was that poor. Modest, maybe, but not poor.

    mariah's sister fessed up to hooking to pay the bills while mariah was living with her and trying to make it as a singer.

    who knows?

    ReplyDelete
  26. Madonna may not have been an actual prostitute, but she slept her way around NY.
    I kind of like the Demi guess. She seems ruthless.

    ReplyDelete
  27. I don't think mentioning Oprah is a clue. When Kitty Kelley's book came out, she said Oprah was a prostitute and came from poverty. I think this is not a clue but just to rule her out.

    I'm on the Jewel train.

    ReplyDelete
  28. Yes, Jewel, she slept in cars for awhile

    ReplyDelete
  29. Geez, this really could be a number of women in Hollywood. Past or present.

    Swank says she came to Hollywood as a teen with her mom and they lived in their car for a while. But really, she's so horsey looking.

    There have been long time rumors about Demi Moore hooking with her mom as an underage teen. She married her first husband at 18 and started on General Hospital at 20.

    Denise Richards is no secret.

    I didn't know about the Halle rumors, she's so gorgeous she would make top dollar.

    I think Madonna was just a slut who slept her way through DJ's and record people to get airplay in clubs.

    Take your pick.

    Gabourey Sidibe.

    The reference to Oprah is clear.

    ReplyDelete
  31. I think it is Mariah, and have seen other blinds and stories over the years like this that point right to her.

    ReplyDelete
  32. Madonna posed naked for art photographers and perhaps stripped (check out her dance moves in her early videos), but she mostly survived by sponging off of men, then leaving them when she found one who could do more for her career.

    ReplyDelete
  33. Mariah's sister was a hooker, but Mariah didn't get slutty looking until after her marriage and divorce to Tommy Mottola. She had great pipes that she knew would be her ticket someday, and worked as a waitress to support herself back then.

  34. i think the reason they put the 'not Oprah' disclaimer on there is because there have been stories going around about that for a while. i have to say, this could be alot of people...but it sure would be fun if it was JLo

    ReplyDelete
  35. Rags to riches? Celebrity? Filthy old woman? My guess: Paula Deen lol

    ReplyDelete
  36. Oh please please please please please let this be Shaninny Twat! She concocts her own history so many times she doesn't even get it straight.

    However, I think it may be Jewel. I heard her ex is starting to talk about what a phoney she is.

    ReplyDelete
  37. I immediately thought Swank, but I like these guesses. btw, Denise Richards would not be a blind item LOL she probably has more than two yrs on her.

    ReplyDelete
  38. I was hoping Tyra Banks but I guess she's not rags to riches. Bummer.

    ReplyDelete
  39. With Denise Richards, it would be a rags to riches to rags story.

    ReplyDelete
  40. Madonna is hardly a rags to riches story. She grew up in Rochester, Michigan...certainly not a low class area even though it's only 20 miles from Detroit.
