Four For Friday - The Swingers
A few years ago, this married couple went through a very rough patch in their marriage. At the time she was just about an A list movie actress who would never touch television. Coming off a huge franchise, she thought she was better than she actually was and started having fun on the side. Her husband was doing the same though. The two decided to invite over their respective other favorites for a couples weekend. The first celebrity couple to join in also consisted of an A list movie actress who has sniffed television but nothing more than that. Her relationship actually crumbled because her significant other started hanging out with one of the women he had swapped with. Another celebrity couple that joined in consisted of a married couple that had a former A list television actress who has never really done any movies and her wacky husband who has done a little of both. That celebrity couple broke off at one point to do their own thing with a celebrity couple who is married but let on to the world they are just engaged. She is A very strong B list movie actress from some very popular movies and her husband who just does television. The only rules are no phones or cameras and be willing to getting watched by everyone else. The wacky husband loved to be watched.
The wacky husband has to be David Arquette, no?
ReplyDeleteDamn you Enty!:0 I hope this is going to be revealed soon.
ReplyDeletenunaurbiz- except that Courtney has done movies....but I thought the same thing. I was thinking the couple that ended up splitting cause he was cheating would be Kate Winslet.
ReplyDeletethe supposedly engaged couple is obviously dax shepard and kristen bell.

ReplyDeletePossibly, Courtney Cox but she was in the Scream movies...
ReplyDeleteI'm having trouble following this. Are there 6 people? (3 couples?)
ReplyDeleteTerri -- I'm with you. I can't follow this blind at at all.
ReplyDeleteYes, this is harder to follow than a Ted C, for chrissakes!

ReplyDeletenow I have it at 8 people (4 couples):
ReplyDeleteThe main couple (1), each had a couple they played with (2 and 3), and the 3rd couple broke up and played with another (4), assumed to be Kristen Bell and Dax
4 can't be kristen bell and dax shepherd because she's more known for her better tv roll as veronica mars than her less stellar movies. dax has done more than just tv too.
ReplyDeleteFuck. I feel like I need a PH.D to solve this shit.
ReplyDeleteThis one kind of sounds like make believe to me.
I don't see how Courtney Cox fits. She was huge in Friends and Scream.
Good lord this is making me dizzy. Enty, you have to reveal this one just because it's giving us vertigo.
ReplyDeleteWhat about Thomas Jane and Patricia Arquette for the wacky husband and television actress?
ReplyDeleteI wonder if Demi Moore and Ashton are one of the couples?
ReplyDeleteHow about Uma Thurman & Ethan Hawke for the 1st couple, although they're now divorced? She was just coming off the Kill Bill movies. Very hard to follow though, is the 1st couple still together?
ReplyDeleteI think there are four couples.

ReplyDelete4 couples, that is all i have now.
ReplyDeleteI stopped reading because I was confused but I think Dax/Bell are married. I think they didn't awhile back and it wasn't announced until a few weeks after.
ReplyDeleteOK, I'm with you guys. My head is spinning. My first thought was Courtney and David and also Dax and Kristen because of Enty's reveal on D and K.
ReplyDeleteWhat actress came off a franchise not that long ago though?
Ok so...
ReplyDeleteOne married couple with A list movie actress from a franchise
One married couple with A list movie actress who has done a small amount of TV
A divorced couple who is together with an A list TV actress with small amount of movie and wacky husband who did both
An a married but said they are engaged with a B list movie actress and husband who does TV only
Confusing, I still think the fourth can't be Dax since he has done movies.
@ RenoBlondee. Liv Tyler (Lord of the Rings), Keira Knightley (Pirates of the Caribbean), Natalie Portman (Star Wars), Kirsten Dunst (Spider-Man), Megan Fox (Transformers).
ReplyDeleteThe only one who would fit is Megan Fox, as everyone else is single or divorced or not in a relationship at the time.
4 couples here. Four for Friday, get it? :)
ReplyDeleteCouple #1: Are still together, just had a rough patch. She pretty was A list and stayed away from TV, had just come off a franchise.
Couple #2: A list movie actress who had sniffed TV, her and husband broke up because he started hanging w one of the girls they swapped with.
Couple #3: had A list TV actress who hadn't really done movies, wacky husband, they broke up at one point to do their own thing with couple #4. Sounds like they're together now too but had separated at one point, right?
Couple #4: Married but led on they were engaged. She's a strong B list movie actress whose done some popular movies, he's only TV.

Thanks Jolene! Is couple2 married? I started thinking Cameron Diaz might fit in.
ReplyDeleteYeah if it weren't for Jolene and Rose I wouldn't know what the hell was going on here. Now all we need is TedC to pick this one up and start making crazy names for the people involved. Having said that I have zero idea on these guesses most the time. I wait for the smart ones in this group to tell me.
ReplyDeleteIt doesn't say couple 2 were married.
ReplyDeleteI'm thinking perhaps Charlize Theron & Stuart Townsend? She did an arc on Arrested Development..
Charlize Theron for an A lister who sniffed at TV?
ReplyDeleteThere have been many blind reveals about three-soms
ReplyDeletewith Charlize and Stuart, although usually with hired escorts...
Megan Fox can't be part of couple #1. She started on TV.
ReplyDeleteJust a thought, it doesn't say that the husband in couple #1 is famous. Also, it says the actress wouldn't touch television -- not that she hasn't. Someone like CZJ has stared in film series (Zorro, Ocean's 12) but started in TV. I can't imagine her ever going back that way. However, I don't think this is her and Michael Douglas.
Couple #2: Charlize Theron and Stuart Townsend
Charlize had a recurring role briefly on the third season of Arrested Development.
Couple #3: Jenna and Bodhi Elfman
He got her into CoS. Does that count as wacky? Also, if the actor were someone with name recognition, Enty would have given him a letter rating.
Couple #4: Kristen Bell and Dax Shepherd

ReplyDeleteWhat about Thomas Jane and Patricia Arquette for the wacky husband and television actress?
Co-sign.
Patricia Arquette was known for movies before she did TV -- Flirting with Disaster, True Romance, Bringing out the Dead, and Lost Highway.
ReplyDeleteI read the first couple as Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin, the huge franchise being Iron Man. And while she has since done TV with Glee, it says "at the time... she would never touch television." And we know Chris cheated with Kate Bosworth, so maybe she was part of the second couple who had split because her sig other had cheated. After that, no idea.
ReplyDeleteCouple #1- Julia Roberts (coming off of Ocean's 11 and Ocean's 12)and Daniel Moder
ReplyDeletedont know if that fits but no other actresses coming off a 'huge franchise' really fit

ReplyDelete#4 eric dane and rebecca gayheart.
ReplyDeleteI think couple two HAS to be Charlize and Stuart.
ReplyDeleteI dont think couple #1 is Paltrow and Martin - wouldnt he have mentioned that he was a celeb also?
I think Dax & K.Bell are couple #3, not #4. They're openly married. And K.Bell does tv and Dax does movies, so they make no sense for #4.
ReplyDeleteI'm so confused!
ReplyDeleteOh GAWD, for one awful second I think both Patricia Arquette and David Arquette were involved somehow. I now know that's not the case, and I'm back to being just confused, instead of confused and horrified.
ReplyDeleteFWIW, someone who is "just about an A list movie actress" probably hadn't already won an Oscar "at the time." Sounds like somebody who was on the way up then, on the cusp of mega-stardom. (Of course, that Kate Winslet thing will always cast doubt on how we judge what list people are in.)
ReplyDeleteCharlize/Stuart is a good guess for No. 2.
What about Kate Beckinsale and Len Wiseman for #1?
ReplyDeletecouple #1: Will and Jada Smith
ReplyDeletecouple #2: JLo and Marc Anthony
couple #3: Courtney Cox and David Arquette
couple #4: Demi and Ashton
1/Demi Moore/Kutcher?
ReplyDelete2/Charlize theron/Townsend?
3:Courtney Cox/Arquette?
4/Diane Kruger/Joshua Jackson?
Julia Roberts has already been an A list, as has Charlize Theron. I think it's a new comer who is arrogant and snobby and thinks she's better than she is. Charlize is an excellent actress...and Julia was already an A+ list. I think #1 is Megan Fox. She may have done TV when she was starting out, but she won't touch TV now and thinks she's better than she is.
ReplyDeleteI like Mookie's guess...I think the thread that isn't being said is the Scientology angle and that means Demi & Ashton is out and Jenna Elfman and whoever she's married too. I know that Courtney flirted with Scientology when she was trying for the 600th time to quit her coke habit.
ReplyDeleteNo way is #4 Diane Kruger/Josh Jackson. He's done a few movies.
