Normally I don't concern myself with dating stories. There are just too many and they are ever changing. This one kind of peaked my interest because it seems there could be a little juiciness to it. Fred Armisen and the very lovely and wonderful Elisabeth Moss separated in May after just being married 10 months. That in itself is kind of strange. I know lately there have been some exceptions, but even in Hollywood people usually stick it out for like a year. They want to keep the wedding gifts too you know.
So, why the sudden split? Well, Life & Style says that Fred and his SNL co-star, Abby Elliott are now a couple and have been for the past "couple" of months. Couple usually means two but it is not two exactly and if you look back, you start to wonder if maybe something heated up on the SNL set right about the time Fred & Elisabeth got married and then when May and the end of the season rolled around and there was no plausible reason for Fred and Abby to hang out anymore, that the 43 year old Fred decided to make the jump and start dating 23 year old Abby.
Bad move Fred. Elisabeth is a keeper.
Never understand this - I mean, why go thru with getting married, FRED, if you've got your eye on someone else?
ReplyDeleteOf course, as the jilted bride I would make you pay for half the wedding costs. Or else.
Boooo, hiss.
ReplyDeleteWhat a pig.
ReplyDeleteE Moss is so great is Peggy Olson. She has a bright future ahead of her. She should walk away from this and never look back.
Lucky escape for EM.
ReplyDeleteOnly in Hollywood would two beautiful, talented women be fighting over a man who looks like *that*.
ReplyDeleteKeep running Elisabeth...you just got lucky...
ReplyDeletefirst of all, he's a nerd. second of all, he's a nerd named 'fred'. he's lucky he lands a date at all. why would he cheat on a lovely woman 10 months (or less, most likely) into the marriage?! boo on him.
ReplyDeleteIsn't she a Scientologist though? Maybe he didn't want to drink their Koolaid?
ReplyDeleteI thought it was fairly established that he is gay. Elizabeth Moss if very pretty but as she is a scientologist she probably also comes with some baggage. Love her as Peggy, though!
ReplyDeleteKathy, after googling it, it looks like you are right. While it sucks that their marriage broke up so quickly and he is already dating someone else, I can't believe after all his scientology rants a year or two ago (and current occasional jabs), I can't believe Enty is referring to a member of their cult as "a keeper".
ReplyDeleteI mean Enty's rants, not Fred's.
ReplyDeleteThat so does not look like Abby! Weird, but whatever. Gaaaabe, is hysterical. I'd probably date him too.
ReplyDeleteI don't see the attraction to this man at all. He is ugly and I hate his characters on SNL. Thank God my DVR lets me fast-forward through all of his skits. Can't stand him.
ReplyDeleteElisabeth is cool I guess (I don't watch Mad Men), to me she will always be "Torch" from Girl; Interrupted.
She is a second-generation Scientologist from what I understand. She is pretty involved.
ReplyDeleteI thought it had to do with her being a scientologist but it's surprising he's dating someone so fast. I just don't understand how anyone could be a scientologist. It's really creepy.
ReplyDeleteI'm not one to normally point out spelling and grammar errors on blogs, but I HAVE to point out that it's "piqued my interest", not "peaked". Sorry to do it, but it's one of my pet peeves. As you were! :)
ReplyDeleteSlightly off-topic, but that was a good Mad Men last Sunday.
ReplyDeleteMomster - It was a GREAT Mad Men last Sunday!
ReplyDeletewell Miss Elliott can give her next season goodbye after this is done.
ReplyDeletei don't know how this creep got one woman, let alone 2.
ReplyDeleteand i hope elisabeth is ok. love her and she deserves so much better than this.
I like Mad Men too and her character as well.
ReplyDeleteMB - The girl in the picture is Elisabeth, not Abby.
ReplyDeleteI thought it was kind of a weird pairing to begin with...(EM/FA). EM is FANTASTIC on Mad Men. Love her so much.
Fred may not be the most attractive guy around but Scientology fugly goes all the way to the bone.
ReplyDeleteBeing attractive doesn't mean that person will automatically be the best partner, lover, or friend.
ReplyDeleteI don't get why people are saying he is so ugly therefore she could do better.
Maybe his smart and funny dude...that could be what drew her to him.
Seriously people.
I've loved her since girl interupted
ReplyDeleteThank you, thank you RocketQueen!
ReplyDeleteFred ran away from the crazy. I agree with Jax - Abby's on a slippery slope because she isn't established on the show yet (and probably won't be with Kristen Wiig hogging most of the female roles).
ReplyDeleteI like Fred Armisen. Smart and funny go far with me. I think the COS crap gave him the willies and he ran far and fast.
ReplyDeleteElisabeth Moss certainly seems cool but you can't shake that COS crazy, you just can't. It runs deep to the bone. And who knows what the church subjected or tried to subject Armisen to before he ran screaming.
Agree with Mango
ReplyDeleteI love me some Peggy Olsen, though!
