Four For Friday - With Some Kindness

#1 & #2 This Academy Award nominee/winner was filming a movie in a town where she heard about a little girl being hit by a car and the driver running away. The little girl suffered significant brain damage and her parents started a site to keep people updated on what happened. This is what our actress wrote on the site.

Dear Sarah and David and Laura---
I have so enjoyed starting my days reading your updates, written so beautifully and with such love. I am thrilled to hear you have come thru your final surgery with flying colors....but that was to be expected with an extraordinary girl like you! Today I begin my last week of shooting ___________. Saying goodbye won't be easy but it's been an incredibly journey, one marked most profoundly by a young girl I have never met....YOU> Thank you for inspiring me and so many......I guess I don't have to tell you to GO GIRL....because no one needs to tell Sarah, she's already begun. What a story, what a family, what a remarkable young woman.
Be WELL. Be Happy. Be creative and never, never...be 'Normal'!
With Love,_________________

#1 - Actress
#2 - Movie she was filming

#3- This American Idol Top 5 runnerup and all around great guy was at a singing competition recently to act as judge and encouragement for the contestants. One of the contestants was a huge fan of his and was shocked and excited when he came out onto the stage and started shaking hands. Tears in her eyes and everything. After his encouragement which included plugging his show at a local club that night, he left the stage with the contestants. Backstage, he gave her a hug and talked with her a bit before she had to go back out and sing. When she was being interviewed, she kept saying how nervous she was with him watching her backstage and she hopes she does well for him. Unfortunately there was better talent and she lost. Now normally, after the "celebrity encouragement," they leave before the competition even begins, but he stayed. And, upon hearing she lost and would be free that night, he invited her and her family to his show with free tickets and backstage VIP passes. The girl was so surprised she began to cry.

#4 - This male, married, A list, mostly movie actor, but famous for television was at a party recently when he was confronted by a female model. It turns out the actor had sex with the model a few times and blown her off and changed his phone number and there the model was confronting him about he just screwed her and left. Lucky for the actor, his wife was not there, but 50 other people were there and heard every word.

  2. I thought of Charlize Theron for #1 but she isn't filming anything...

  3. Googled a bit. The girl is Sarah Goone in Chicago. Not sure who the celebrity is.

    If anyone wants to comb through her CaringBridge site, it's here: http://www.caringbridge.org/visit/sarahgoone1

  4. I thought of Cameron Diaz for #1/#2, filming Night & Day maybe? She filmed My Sister's Keeper so I can see her having compassion for a young girl trying to survive.

  5. 3. David Archuleta

    ReplyDelete
  8. Adventurous Kate, look a the link I posted, it's a little girl named Sarah Curl and her dad's name is David...

    ReplyDelete
  9. For #3, I want to say Elliot Yamin or Bo Bice.

    ReplyDelete
  10. 1 & 2 - is virgina madsen and the movie is scoundrels....

    http://www.caringbridge.org/visit/sarahgoone1/guestbook/19

    #3 - maybe chris daughtry??

    ReplyDelete
  11. But isn't Scoundrels a tv series?

    #4 is driving me crazy - I feel like it should be pretty easy! Bruce Willis?

    ReplyDelete
  12. nice, princessd - I was 100% wrong..

    ReplyDelete
  13. hey kate, i also like the elliott yamin guess. some friends of mine met him on 6th st here in austin & they said he was very very nice...could be him.

    ReplyDelete
  14. ha! i just clearly have wayyy too much time on my hands and unsupervised internet access at work...

    ReplyDelete
  15. Not only did Virgina Madsen check in with her, she did it no less than four times giving Sarah updates on what she was doing and giving Sarah encouragement on her progress. So cool.

    ReplyDelete
  16. @ Pricessd - Yeah!

    ReplyDelete
  17. Awww love the kindness blinds!

    ReplyDelete
  18. Looks like Sarah Goone went to the same high school where Virginia Madsen graduated from, so that's the connection.

    Keep the kindnesses coming and revealed (or easy to figure out)! We can all go watch Virginia Madsen instead of Mel Gibson. :)

  19. Filming in Chicago recently was the exquisite Winona...

    ReplyDelete
  20. I stand corrected -- partly. Winona IS exquisite, but the wonderful #1 is Virginia Madsen, filming Scoundrels.

    ReplyDelete
  21. Is Virginia the reveal about the director and her husband?

    And I think #4 was Asston Kurcher.

    ReplyDelete
  22. Kutcher. If I could type, I would be dangerous.

    ReplyDelete
  23. #1, #2 - WTG Virginia Madsen. Big fan as of today.
    #3 Danny Gokey
    #4 No way can Ashton Kutcher be A list. Speaking of Caring Bridge, don't forget he helped the Wisconsin kid using his Twitter account. Here's the link:

  24. Aw crap. That boy that Ashton kept in touch with died last August. I followed it for a while and then stopped. Poor kid.

    ReplyDelete
  25. #3 is definitely Elliott Yamin (Enty loves him and I do too)

    ReplyDelete
  26. #2 is Elliot Yamin, for sure.

  28. 1 & 2. Virginia Madsen & Scoundrels. I live in Chicago and I'm on that board. The Madsens are just all around good people and class acts.


    3. Don't know.


    4. Totally Ashton Kutcher.

    ReplyDelete
  29. I would agree with Virginia madden is scoundrels was a movie. But it's a tv show on abc.

    ReplyDelete
  30. Thanks Adventurous Kate! Your link was the right one. VM was easy to spot because she has signed the guestbook VERY recently.

    ReplyDelete
  31. Is this really Virginia and the movie/tv show Scoundrels? If so that's too bad because that show is awful. Also I didn't know it was filmed in Chicago.

    ReplyDelete
  32. #4 could be asston because he did "somehow" make it to the top spot in spite of his assiness.

    I like the blinds that you can figure out with google :)

    Well done princessd!

    ReplyDelete
  35. #3 sounds like Adam Lambert. He's currently on tour, has die hard fans and from all accounts is a super nice guy.

    ReplyDelete
  36. #1 Jennifer Connelly filmed #2 Salvation Boulevard in Michigan this year, this is near where the news reported on the accident and the family.

    ReplyDelete
  37. 1) Virginia Madsen
    2) Elliot Yamin (though I like Bo Bice for it too)
    3) Jon Cryer

    lol.

    ReplyDelete
  38. Virginia Madsen was filming near where I live in New Mexico a few summers ago and I agree, she is very kind, unpretentious, and a real sweetheart!

    ReplyDelete
  39. there is a reason kutcher was top spot...FTW #4.
    he just looks douche, i am sure this pix is in the dictionary under it.

    ReplyDelete
  40. I have been a Ginnie Madsen fan for more years than I care to admit (it would mean admitting I'm in my mid-forties -- oops), so hearing about this just makes me love her all the more!

    ReplyDelete
  41. @Sunnyside1213 - what "director and her husband" blind are you referring to? I doubt if it involves Madsen, as she's only been married once (to Danny Huston, from 1989-92).

    ReplyDelete
  42. ooooooooooooppppps. Sorry, I was mixing up Virginia with Gretchen Mol for the blind about the wife and the director. Does anyone have a link to that blind?

    ReplyDelete
  43. It is always amazing to me how the "other woman" gets so mad at the married man after he dumps her. What did she expect? I am hopping on board the Ashton train.

    ReplyDelete
  44. totally going with adam lambert for #3. it is SO the sort of thing he does.

    ReplyDelete
  45. p.s. love to virginia madsen for the kindness -- "kind vice"? "kind/nice"? what a class act.

    ReplyDelete
  46. #4 Adam Sandler.

    SNL
    "50" first dates

    ReplyDelete
  47. #4 - Will Smith?

    ReplyDelete
  48. #1 Virginia Madsen
    #2 Scoundrels

    http://www.caringbridge.org/visit/sarahgoone1/guestbook/19

    Thanks for enough info to google it and read Sarah's story. God bless her and her family.

    Too bad more celebrities can't be like Virginia. Doesn't take much to just be a genuinely nice person. Thanks Enty for blinds like this. It's a refreshing change from the other self-centered, self-medicated, drug addicted "don't you know who I am" pr*ck celebrities who feel they are entitled to do whatever they want and never have to be held responsible for their actions.

    I pray for Sarah's continued recovery and that the girl who is responsible is prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. I won't give her name because what she did was inexcusable and she is clearly a selfish and disgusting human being. Her parents are just as awful with criminal back rounds. Please don't let our justice system fail Sarah's family.

    Regarding #4, it doesn't say he was married at the time of having sex with the model.

    I go with Bruce Willis.

  50. If VM is super nice, that is awesome, however, she does not fit for this item. Scoundrels is a television show, not a movie. It specifically says this is a movie and that she was finishing filming that week. In addition, Scoundrels films on location in New Mexico. Jennifer Connelly fits this much better for Salvation Boulevard.

    ReplyDelete
  51. VM may be super nice but she doesn't fit this blind for the letter featured here, though she may have signed the guestbook. Scoundrels is a television show on NBC and it shoots in New Mexico. There are two links above for two different hit and run victims named Sarah, and the one in the blind is Sarah Goone, her parents names match the letter from the celeb. So the film location is Chicago, not Michigan.
