Today's Blind Items - The Talk Show Host
This national television talk show host has a perceived reputation of being super nice and always smiling. That is what is shown to the public anyway. There have been one or two public slips, but were quickly swept under the rug. Working for the talk show host is nothing short of oppressive.
Our talk show host only speaks to people on the show that are within the inner circle and does not bother to learn any name unless required to for the show. Our host will yell at the drop of a hat.
A hairstylist was fired for recommending hair products to the host. Our host wants no products and if you mention any, or that the host needs them, you are fired. Oh, and when the hairstylist was fired, her bag was checked to make sure she was not stealing any of the supplies.
That hairstylist was hired because the host's previous hairstylist was fired after it was discovered he was HIV+.
Our host regularly begins drinking shortly after the show tapes, and sometimes has a taste before it tapes. Most nights, the host passes out drunk.
Our host acts as if they are not vain, but their face has numerous plastic surgery scars from lifts.
The crew has a tough time finding replacements because no one wants to work for the host. One crew member was offered a great job on the show and told them he would rather file for unemployment than work for the talk show host.
Oh, as for our host's significant other? They are eternally grateful each night when the host passes out drunk because the nice act on television does not extend to the homefront either.
