Today's Blind Item
This B- list comedy actress got her fame from late night television but prefers movies. She also prefers to make everyone around her miserable. Right now she is shooting a movie and makes one demand after another to the point where the crew just wants the movie to be over so they never have to see her again. She is the epitome of someone who thinks way more of herself than anyone does of her.
Olivia Munn?
ReplyDeleteSarah Silverman
ReplyDeleteChelsea Handler
ReplyDeleteSomeone from Saturday Night Live
ReplyDeleteKristen Wiig, maybe?
ReplyDeleteSounds like a lot like Katherine Heigle.
ReplyDeleteThe more movie she does, the less things change.
My guess is Olivia Munn -- mostly because I can't stand her. *shrugs*
ReplyDeletebut the person got her fame from late night television. That's after 11 pm, folks.
ReplyDeleteKristen Wiig is a great guess, but I hope it's not her. Am I the only one that LOVED the Target lady bit on SNL?
ReplyDeleteI hope that behavior bites her in the ass.
ReplyDelete@Cathy -- "Welcome to TERRget!! Where did you find that gerrgeous bay-ug?"
ReplyDeleteThose skits used to make my BF and I come close to pissing ourselves.
I REFUSE to believe this is Kristin Wiig. I haven't heard ANYthing about her having any kind of diva personality, for one thing.
And the turnaround rate at SNL is so high, anyway -- if she were acting like a big ol' beeyotch, Lorne could just fire her and get a new replacement.
I *really* don't think this is a female from SNL.
But Olivia Munn was on that horrid Man Show, and that was a late-night thing, if I'm not mistaken...
Friends with Kids is in post production and Kristen Wiig is in that. But she is in it with Jon Hamm and Maya Rudolph who she was in Bridesmaids with so I am guessing/hoping it's not her,since they all agreed to be in another movie together.
ReplyDeleteI like the Sarah Silverman guess. She works my last nerve...
@Ida - Every time I'm at Target and swipe my card through, I have to bite my tongue not to exclaim, "APPROOOVED!"
ReplyDeleteI'll go with Munn just because she really rubs me the wrong way.
Chelsea Handler sounds about right.
ReplyDeleteBut Chelsea could not be a B- actress... Could she?
ReplyDeleteMust be on of them SNL alumna.
I don't really see Chelsea Handler in any movies right now on IMDB, but Sarah Silverman just wrapped one up and has two in preproduction. Sarah ftw ;>
ReplyDeleteTarget Lady is my favorite thing to parody when i go ANYWHERE...i am a big fan of acting like a goofball and embarrassing my daughter.
ReplyDeleteas for the BI, i have no idea :)
Sarah doesn't seem like that, at least to me. Plus, did she get her start in late night? She was a road comic.
ReplyDeleteYes, I know Sarah was on SNL for one season, but is that a start? I don't know.
ReplyDeleteShe had her own show back in 2007 on Comedy Central, The Sarah Silverman Show. I thought I remembered it being a late night show.
ReplyDeleteVictoria Jackson?
ReplyDeleteCheri Oteri.
ReplyDeleteOh wait - it was a "B", not a "P".
not Olivia Munn - she's been primarily in TV series since Attack of the Show!, which was also not late night - she was also not in The Man Show, and her few film roles have been very minor --- the clues sound more like someone such as Maya Rudolph, although I know nothing about her true personality.

ReplyDeletewiig - Imogene (filming)
ReplyDeleteI'd say someone from SNL. Could be Wiig, could by Rudolph. They are both in demand now. I could see this being either of them. I don't get all the hoopla over Wiig. The Target Lady was the only good character she had. All her other characters were more or less the same, and really annoying to boot. I guess I'm just too low-brow to get her "genius".
ReplyDeleteRhonda from UP All Night! (kidding)
ReplyDeleteKristen Wiig is shooting a movie in NYC with Darren Criss and Annette Bening right now.... maybe she's become a bit big-headed after the success of bridesmaids and such...??
ReplyDeleteAw, I hope it's not Kristen Wiig - I love her! Target lady rules! And also, big forehead-tiny hands girl!
ReplyDeleteI loved The Target Lady too. "You look like Angelina Jer-lie."
ReplyDeleteI'm guessing Chelsea Handler. I noticed she's been snarking on actual celebs less and less these days. She wants into the big leagues bad.
Olivia Munn came to mind since she's on The Daily Show. I personally think she's lower than B-, but I guess looks outweigh talent in Tinseltown.
ReplyDeleteBoth Olivia Munn and Chelsea Handler are filming right now. Could be either.
Bette Midler, the late night show being "The Tonight Show" with Johnny Carson, who considered her his protegee; and who had her on his very last show. The movie being the one with Al Pacino about Phil Spector.
ReplyDeleteGarafolo??
ReplyDeleteWith Bridesmaids blowing up Wiig is more like B+. Sure sounds like someone from SNL. Could be Maya Rudolph. With her passel of tots at home maybe her "demands" are just that they wrap shooting at a decent hour.
ReplyDeleteOn the West Coast the Daily Show isn't considered a late night show (it comes on at 7). Otherwise I'd say, yeah, Olivia Munn is a good guess. Handler is a stand-up comic primarily.
Chelsea Handler
ReplyDeleteScreamed of Chelsea to me as well. But i agree with the b- part tho she is filming "Fun Size" right now and wrapped another move recently. hmmmm i vote Chelsea
ReplyDeleteThe clues are misleading if it's Handler. She's waaaay more famous as a comic and author. Plus she's pretty honest that she's sometimes a bitch to the staff of her show.
ReplyDeleteFYI, first time I saw Sarah Silverman it was on "The Larry Sanders Show"
ReplyDeleteI want to see this reveal just to make sure it's not Kristen Wiig, I like her too much!
ReplyDeleteNot Kristen Wiig: she's shooting movies right now because it's the only time in the year she can, during the summer break. She's still a big part of SNL.
ReplyDeleteNot Maya Rudolph: she's got a new sitcom with Christina Applegate on the way and her part is even being beefed up.
Not Sarah Silverman: her new sitcom project is reportedly terrific and she has just signed with NBC.
Not Olivia Munn: she just gets cameos and bit parts in movies.
please don't be Kristen Wiig
ReplyDeleteThe clue reads "B-minus list," right? I just want to be sure I'm decoding Enty correctly. Wiig rocketed to B-plus with a bullet with the first weekend's grosses for Bridesmaids.
ReplyDeleteThe only reason this couldn't be Munn is the "late night" clue. She's been riding the fame train real hard. The show she was on before The Daily Show, did it run in late night?
God, I hope this is Chelsea Handler, and that karma bites her in the ass HARD, and that she disappears FOREVER.
ReplyDeleteShe is truly awful.
I was thinking someone from SNL too, but can't think of any of the women being in movies much other than Janine Garafolo. I'm thinking Bette Midler makes sense.
ReplyDeleteI was thinking Chelsea, but I bet it is JLo. She was in In Living Color, and although she has acted in other films she is mostly known as as a comedic actress. Not to mention news about her being her typical self on set with "What to Expect When Your Expecting."
ReplyDeleteYes
