BuzzFoto Blind Item
This actress made several cameos on a cult children’s show in the 80′s. You can now see her at the Greyhound station in Midtown in the Big Apple bumming cigarettes off of strangers.

Jodie from Today's Special!
ReplyDeleteNatasha Lyonne?
ReplyDeleteMaybe wrong - Epathia Merkinson (sp?) from Law & Order? She was on Peewee's Playhouse - IMDB says since L & O only 1 role in post production.
ReplyDeleteMy first thought was Peewee's Playhouse but there's no one I would recognize today. Hmmmmm...
ReplyDeleteNatasha Lyonna was on Pee-wee's Playhouse the first season actually.
ReplyDeleteI second Natasha Lyonne from Peewee's Playhouse.
ReplyDeleteLet's start with the show... 80's chilren shows with cult-like status...
ReplyDeleteIt can't be a cartoon so that rules a lot out. Would Punky Brewster qualify? Full House? Is Saved by the Bell a children's show?

ReplyDeleteSesame Street??
ReplyDeleteI don't think it can be Nerene Virgib (Jodie from Today's Special). She seems to be on several boards and whatnot (at least according to Wikipedia, so who knows if its true).
ReplyDeleteSorry - Virgin (not Virgib).
ReplyDeleteYeah, because I am SO sure that a Buzzfoto pap had a scintillating conversation with this person while waiting for a bus.
ReplyDeleteSomeone in the Buzzfoto headquarters gets paid to make this shit up -- and I wish it were me, because my blinds would be a hell of a lot more interesting.
my office is a block away from Port Authority I will leave a trail of cigarettes and see if any cult children's show star pick them up.
ReplyDeleteAnd if she is bumming cigarettes, I would think she is hooking also.
I live in NYC. I'm at Port Authority where the Grehound bus terminal is, everyday. I'll go by after work and see who it is, and let everyone know.
ReplyDeleteWow, Timebob that is quite a stretch from cigarettes to hooking! LOL
ReplyDeletecrila16 - I'll pass by just before 6. Can you go earlier or later? Trying to cover as much ground as possible. I'll be waving a pack of cigs around to flush her out.
ReplyDeletelol, u guys are funny !
ReplyDeleteI am off to the Greyhound station with a pack of cigarettes, I will let you know when I see the chick, lol
ReplyDelete@KLM
ReplyDeleteI was joking. I just really loved that show back in the day and wanted to mention it.
Def not Epatha, she has plenty of money coming in from L & O reruns, she doesn't need to work. She had a health issue so that could be why she is laying low. She's awesome, and seems like the type to squirrel her money away for the future.
ReplyDeleteYou guys ARE HYSTERICAL!
ReplyDeleteOh - I never even heard of the show before so I didn't know you were joking... :)
ReplyDeleteMy daughter was in Grade 1 and wanted to watch Peewees Playhouse because all her friends watched it. Before agree I watched it without her one day and just couldn't let her it was too hyper, and not educational imho for me. It was the first, and only, time she told me "I hate you" lol
ReplyDeleteYep, S. Epatha was on L&O for eons. If she didn't squirrel away her money then she's an idiot, and she doesn't seem like an idiot to me. I think the only actor on their longer than she is the guy who plays the captain on SVU.
ReplyDeleteIncidentally, Greyhound is the lowest of the low. I would rather take a chance hitch-hiking rather than take a GH bus.
If you want a giggle, Google Greyhound reviews. The reports of people fearing that they won't make it to the destination alive are kind of funny.

ReplyDeletethank you Mango! I live for this kind of funny shit. Here's my favorite:
ReplyDeleteI am writing this review from my BlackBerry on an actual greyhound bus. Since we were so late leaving the Ninth Ring of Hell I MEAN THE Port Authority, I figured I'd recount an experience from the field.
....But right now, I would plunk down $100 to be anywhere but aboard this vehicle of Satan. Where is my $30 going? It certainly isn't going into my leg room. Nor is it into my laundry bill once I have the acrid stench of misery that this bus is slowly infusing into them (and I am sweating into them thanks to blasting heat, no doubt gleefully provided by Lucifer himself).
I don't usually commit myself, but Natasha Lyonne could totally be it. She smokes, she was on PeeWee's, and I can totally see her lurching toward people and asking for cigarettes. Remember her Youtube vids two or three years ago, where she said PeeWee f****ed her?
ReplyDeletehttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=23nRCKp1FwQ for the video
ReplyDeleteMy favorite was when she threatened to sexually molest her neighbor's dog.
ReplyDeleteToday's Special was my FAVORITE Nickelodeon show!
ReplyDeleteYes, all the NYC sleuths let us know what is up.
It would have to someone from Pee Wee's or Sesame Street, given the blind description (if it's even true).
As long as the cast of Hey, Dude is now happy, healthy, and unscathed, then I don't give a shit *who* this blind is supposedly about.
ReplyDeleteIf it were Natasha Lyonne, don't you think there would be other hints in the blind? My guess is that the actress did nothing after the show.
ReplyDeletetoday's special was a Canadian show and Nerene Virgin still lives in Canada. Not her.
ReplyDeleteMy guess is Anna Seidman.
Just checked, Anna Seidman does live in NYC.
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't think this was Seasme St. It has been on since 68-69'. I'd think Natasha might just fill the bill on this one. Get a pack of Camels, stand up on the bench and say, " Whoever the 80's childstar is, that the Camels are hers if she steps forward."
ReplyDeleteI mean what else would you do to fi
nd out fast? Call het like a lost pet? " Here child star... Here child star."
I am just picturing all of you in the bus station frantically waving cigarettes. LOL
ReplyDeleteNow I have that damned "Today's Special" theme song in my head. I was too old for it when they used to show it on Nickelodeon, I was 9 or 10 and found the show maddening....That guy who was a robot/doll? Weird.
ReplyDeleteStill watched it every day though. 'Glass Teat' y'know?
..."There's magic everywhere
ReplyDeleteA world for us to share
With friendly faces, hoping that you'll want to meet us there...
For Today's Special, it's about to appear,
It's about to appear!
Today's Special...shout it loud and clear!!!!
How about Didi Conn? I think she did a kid's show with Ringo Starr in the 80's...or was it the 90's?
ReplyDeleteAwwwww, I'm sad to bus the bus station action! I'm sitting in chuck e chees right now laughing like a freak o er this thread. I vote pee wees playhouse. Who played the most beautiful girl in the world character? Miss somebody???
ReplyDeleteYes! I work 2 blocks from the Port Authority.
ReplyDeleteI'll be the one with a pack of Camels.
@Mango
ReplyDeleteYou are so right! I took a Greyhound bus to Las Vegas (what was I thinking) and it was SO SCARY! I felt like I was in some bad horror movie and I was going to get raped and killed. It was the bottom of the barrel that's for sure.
It's def not S. Epatha Merkerson, she quit after 20 yrs and her sister is a lung cancer survivor.
ReplyDeleteI think I need to rain on the Natasha Lyonne parade a little here. Not that it can't be her, but come on, would this really be a blind? Her troubles have been so major and so well-publicized - I mean, her drug addiction got to the point that she was at the top of practically everyone's list for Celebrity Death Watch. If you Google her, some of the top searches seem to be "Is Natasha Lyonne dead?" It's of course extremely possible that Buzzfoto is just incredibly behind the times (or wrong), but if this is a real blind, I would tend to think that there would be at least SOME element of surprise to finding this person bumming for cigs at the Port Authority. Right?
ReplyDeleteI hate to commit myself to guesses, and I'm having buyer's remorse about the Lyonne guess. Largely for the reasons that people are suggesting, that she is famous enough that people would be talking about it, etc. In years past, Gawker and other sites had abundant "Lyonne down and out" stories, so it wouldn't be the first.
ReplyDeleteI'm also doubtful of the Seidman guess. Would it be a "cameo" if it's someone's only job ever? And Seidman seems to have a fairly okay life, boyfriend, Myspace page showing her drinking a beer. Her imdb page has only Pee-Wee's and one brief short.
Maybe it's Sharon Stone?
Joymama -- no way it's Didi Conn. I knew her years ago and have followed her career since then. She's one of the nicest (and most stable) people I've ever known. She's dealing with raising an autistic son, I think.
