NY Post Blind Items

Which squeaky-clean actor’s drug habit is so bad, he’s starting to get a reputation and be passed over for big roles?

  1. Please let it be Kirk Cameron.

  2. Cameron only ever had one 'big' role way back in the 80's.

  3. hmmm....who the heck is squeaky clean? Zac Efron? but what big roles could he get?

    ReplyDelete
  4. Ryan Reynolds strikes me as squeaky clean, personally.

    But I would LOVE for this to be Kirk Cameron. :-)

  5. @Moose - HA! like it

    I am on board with the Ryan Reynolds guess for this one, but I would also like to throw out Jakey G.

  6. Does Kirk Cameron even act anymore? I don't think this is him. And Ryan seems to be such a gym rat, that I can't see this being him either. But, I really have no idea who it could be.

    Kirk Cameron doesn't get big roles any longer. He does act occasionally in some Christian themed movies I think. Other than him I just can't think of a squeaky-clean actor that isn't over the age of 15.

    Chris Evans. There have been similar blinds about him recently.

  9. Joseph Gordon-Levitt?

  10. What about Matt Damon? He seems squeaky clean to me.

    ReplyDelete
  11. Chris Evans. Which sucks!! He's such a nice guy

    ReplyDelete
  12. Oh and that's a guess that it's him. I am not in the know.

    ReplyDelete
  13. Lol, Kirk Cameron - that's awesome.

    ReplyDelete
  14. Matt Damon is NOT hard-up for roles. He's like Hollywood's Golden Boy.

    I'm on board with the Chris Evans guess.

    And guys...I think the Kirk Cameron guess was a joke. ;-)

  15. Matt Damon seems squeaky clean to me, too.

    ReplyDelete
  16. Jakey G? I think of him as pretty squeaky clean.

    ReplyDelete
  17. Zac Efron was the first person I thought of.

    ReplyDelete
  18. Do people perceive Chris Evans as a squeaky-clean guy, though? I always get ''hot mess'' vibes when I see candid shots/premiere shots of the poor man. He seems like he's battling demons right now.

    ReplyDelete
  19. Oh, and perhaps the squeaky-clean clue is a reference to Captain America, the most vanilla and innocent of superheroes (except for Superman).

    ReplyDelete
  20. Maybe it is Jake and the drug is pot. It doesn't have to be coke or heroin does it? Who wants to work with someone so stoned they can't do a line without laughing and are always hanging by the craft services table. Hey, it could happen!

    ReplyDelete
  21. You know @Sherry, I think pot is widely accepted in the creative community -- including directors, producers. I am guessing the issue has to do with getting someone insured or more likely having them not hold up production. Production costs spiral if the lead is unavailable due to "exhaustion".

  22. I really don't understand all the hate for Kirk. He's a Christian and is honest and open about his beliefs. I know several of you are atheists, and as much as I disagree with your opinion on the existence of God or religion in general, I cannot imagine wishing a drug addiction on you. My niece is a hopeless drug addict and the pain it has caused her children and family is unbearable.

    ReplyDelete
  23. @Ice Angel -agreed! I thank you for having the gumption to say it.

    ReplyDelete
  24. Zack Efron is my guess.

    ReplyDelete
  25. Agree with Ice Angel and Omama!

    ReplyDelete
  26. Channing Tatum? He seems kind of milquetoast-y.

    ReplyDelete
  27. I think it's Chris Evans.
    Kirk Cameron only had one big role and that was in the 80's so I can't see how he would be in demand now.

  29. I think people are only guessing Kirk because he's the most squeaky clean actor we know. And please, not all "atheists" are wishing drug addiction upon others. Not even close.

    I agree with Chris Evans.

  30. Oh, good grief, people. *eyeroll*

    What Rocket Queen said.

    ReplyDelete
  31. @RocketQueen-respectfully, I don't think I said that all atheists wish a drug addiction on Kirk. I was specifically speaking to Lea and Ida. Not hating, just don't understand why you would hate someone who seems like a generally nice guy who leads a relatively quiet life, for the most part.

    um...I got nothin

  33. *sigh*

    Ice Angel, ignore the fact that Kirk is a Christian for just a moment. WHO is more squeaky-clean than him? It's pretty unimaginable that he'd ever even toke up, which is why someone guessed him -- as a JOKE. Jeez.

    I don't think any of us would seriously wish a drug addiction on anyone.

    ReplyDelete
  34. P.S. I don't hate Kirk, but I think his thoughts about Darwinism and homosexuality are misguided, to say the least. His opinions definitely open him up to criticism.

    ReplyDelete
  35. No no no no no NOO!!!
    C'mon you guys!!???
    This just HAS to be:

    F R E D W I L L A R D

    Okay, maybe it's Steve Carell?
    Maybe the dude who played Gopher on Love Boat?
    Okay, I'm stretching. Sorry.

    ReplyDelete
  36. Fair enough, Ice Angel, but how do you know either Ida or Lea are atheists? They may be Agnostics, or simply of a faith OTHER than Christian. There are many to choose from.

    Listen, it's not a huge deal, but considering the Christians on this page get upset when they see posts that appear to be targeting them, wouldn't it be fair for an atheist to respond to a post that seems to imply that atheists are wishing drug addiction on a squeaky clean actor?

    ReplyDelete
  37. I wish a drug addiction on all Christians.

    There. I said it.

    ReplyDelete
  38. I have heard some coke rumors about Chris Evans.

    I also love the Cameron family, it's got to be tough to stick to your beliefs in Hollywood. Good for them.

    ReplyDelete
  39. oh people. lets have fun guessing about drug addicted celebs! We can discuss Faith or lack there of on another site.
    idk about the blind

    ReplyDelete
  40. @SallyAnne- I get the same feeling whenever I see political arguments and the like on gossip sites. This is supposed to be my break from all that!

    ReplyDelete
  41. Jonah Hill because of the weight loss. Maybe coke helped lose weight now he is out of control...

    Hmmmm....Robert Pattinson or the Harry Potter dude?

    ReplyDelete
  43. The Kirk Cameron guess was FUNNY! Remember when we used to be able to take a joke around here and not turn it into imaginary Christian bashing? This is a GOSSIP site. If you want to talk about religion go to the Christian sites. The rest of us are here for snark and humor unencumbered and completely separate from religion and politics.

    That said, I think this is obviously Matt Mcconaughey

  44. "Maybe the dude who played Gopher on Love Boat?"

    Nope, can't be. He and post-rehab Julie came to my high school to talk about how "the drugz are bad." :)

    ReplyDelete
  45. Tom Hanks? Just cuz of the squeaky clean part and use of "big.". Nothing more to base it on.

    And I second what Anotheramy said. Enough with the faith bs! This is a celebrity gossip site.

    ReplyDelete
  46. AnotherAmy- what you wrote should be the subheading to every CDAN page from now on- THANK YOU!!!

    ReplyDelete
  47. Ecua, I was thinking the same thing! For me, Squeaky Clean = TH. Any oldtime CDANers know if he's ever been a blind?

    ReplyDelete
  48. Anotheramy...that WOULD be nice :)
