Today's Blind Items - He Stalks Her
These two were in a movie together. They were actually even a couple for a bit. He used to be A list and has only ever done movies. He does not do much now. He spends a lot of his time doing nothing except watching his former co-star and flame. She is a movie actress but is not above doing television for the right part at the right time. Not her usual though. She has no idea he ex actually stalks her. She knows that he seems to show up at odd places and events halfway across the world but he always says he is working. He lives for the moments when they run into each other away from LA because that is the one time she will sometimes let her guard down and let him close to her again. back in the day he scared her. Scared her very badly. Too intense. Too controlling. Not anything like he appears in reality or even in his roles. Confrontational and would not back down. It was too much. She thinks he has change, but he hasn't. He makes sure to always be acting his best when she is around. The last few people he has dated have almost been her twin. One of them had the wrong hair color and he made her color it to match. Everyone who knows him assumes he managed to chase away her last boyfriend who almost married her. He lived to break them up and worked and work and worked at it. Our actor thinks that he can get her back despite what happened in the past. Despite the fact that when he touches her now she still looks like she is freaked out. She has told her friends and our actor that she would never take him back. He keeps trying though. Watching and following.
Ben Affleck and Gwynneth?
ReplyDelete"...last few people have almost been her twin," made me think of Sliding Doors, where GP changed her hair color for one of the two parallel narratives.
Damn this is good but I got nada
ReplyDeleteOwen Wilson was my first thought, but I guess he has a baby with someone now, correct? Ok, maybe it's not him - Midnight in Paris was him, and not that long ago.
ReplyDeleteNever mind on my guess. The Almost-A list is dating around and Ben is married. I should read all the way through before chiming in next time. Silly me.
ReplyDeleteIMDB has the baby mama listed as "ex-girlfriend", but Owen has lots of stuff in pre-production. Nothing in 2012, though. Maybe he took a sabbatical this year to stalk Kate Hudson? God love him, he's got to be unstable at the very least.
ReplyDeleteNo clue but this dude is a creeper.
ReplyDeleteOwen Wilson and Kate Hudson. Movie was You, Me and Dupree. Bf that almost married her: Dax Shepard? Thing that scared her: his suicide attempt?
ReplyDeleteHudson is engaged,married. This sounds like she is single.
ReplyDeleteAlso I read that Kate Hudson will be on glee next season...
ReplyDeleteKate is reportedly married to that Bellamy dude now who she had the baby with. Hmmm......has that been confirmed? Might not matter to the creeper, though!
ReplyDeleteDon't you think Owen Wilson has way too many credits filming/in pre-production to be considered doing nothing?
ReplyDeleteI like the Owen guess because didn't the chick who claimed he was her baby's father look alot like Kate? Also Enty's say the Actress will do TV if and when it suits her.
ReplyDeleteMy first thought was Uma Thurman / Ethan Hawke. But they were married, so prob Enty would have mentioned that?
ReplyDeleteI definetly read this as Owen and Kate.
ReplyDeleteCusack as the actor
ReplyDeleteDid Keanu and Charlize ever get together "officially"?
ReplyDeleteSorry, hit enter too soon. Zero chance of Owen being an A list. Ever.
ReplyDeleteKate? Please. She plays professional victim.
Sticking with Cusack.
@spacecowboy - I know, lots of stuff in pre-production, but what does that really entail? Honest question - I have no idea what that means - I know he's written a lot with Wes Anderson, so maybe he working on the scripts?
ReplyDeleteHonestly, I just threw his name out as a gut reaction without even researching first. Certainly not set in stone with it. But I could see him having a dark side, obviously.
*he's working
ReplyDeleteNot saying that its him, but Keanu Reeves would be a good example of once A list who does almost nothing now, as someone above noted.
ReplyDeleteI'm ambivalent about the Owen Wilson guess, but I will point out that his ex-girlfriend Jade Duell is Asian...I don't think that she looks like Kate Hudson at all. But it's possible that he had her dye her hair.
ReplyDeleteOr at least a much better fit than Owen Wilson.
ReplyDelete@ABlake - disagree - he's been nominated for an Oscar, so was A at that point. Not permanent A, to be sure, but in that time frame, sure. 2001, writing of Royal Tennenbaums.
ReplyDeleteAnd I adore all his movies - don't want him to be a creeper in real life!
Billy bob and aj?
ReplyDeleteWhat about Jim Carrey and Renee Zelwegger in Me myself and Irene?
ReplyDeleteThey dated for a while.
This comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDeleteJim Carrey did TV, several seasons of In Living Color.
ReplyDeleteNot sure if this fits, but what about Jude Law and Sienna Miller?
ReplyDeleteSo, Keanu and Charlize rumors, and they co-starred several times. Who would his look-alike exes be? Don't really know who he's supposed to have dated recently. Lots of gay rumors, naturally. He could be buttering her up by playing daddy to the baby, as suggested by "articles" from April of this year (In Touch).
ReplyDeleteI thought of Reese W first. Apprently she dated Jeremy Sisto in 1992 and co-starred in a movie called Desperate Choices: To Save My Child. Ikn if Jeremy Sisto fits the former A-list actor description though.
ReplyDeleteSisto is on Suburgatory now.
ReplyDeleteThis one is driving me nuts. I feel like it's just on the periphery!
I'm recalling a B list actress who drastically changed her hair a few years back. I can almost see her....so frustrating! Can't remember who it was.
ReplyDelete@ABlake I like your Cusack guess. But who could be the girl?
ReplyDeleteI recall looking at random photos on here within a not too distant past, and looking at an actor and his then girlfriend and even commenting that "so and so certainly has a type, doesn't he?" because that girlfriend looked exactly like the one before her.
ReplyDeleteIf I could only remember who it was.
Who's the cool girl from Superbad? I'm drawing a blank but she went brunette for a minute but is she also too new a star for this to fit? What other actresses have changed their hair color?
ReplyDeleteIt sure did read as Owen/Kate, but with a couple holes in it. Has Kate ever done TV? And the Asian g/f not looking like her....hmmmmm
ReplyDeleteThe girl he was dating that changed her hair color may not have been an actress.
ReplyDelete@Reno - Kate's done a spot on Glee and apparently will be back on next season.
ReplyDeleteThink, Maja, think! This one seems solvable. As did The Actress Who Won't Eat. I must go back and look at that one again - spent waayyyy too much time on that one already :-).
ReplyDelete@Maja, could it have been Scarlett Johanssen? Didn't she dye her hair brown around the time she was dating Sean Penn? I'm gonna run with that idea and say it's Sean Penn stalking Phoebe Cates. :) I know it doesn't work w all the facts, but what the heck. ;)
ReplyDeleteI thought this was Marilyn and Dita (with the hair color change being Evan Rachel Wood) but then I re-read the blind and saw he was an actor.
ReplyDeleteI've got nada...
Off topic but geez, Enty, proofread!
ReplyDeleteOk going back into detective mode...
Wasn't there a blind recently that pointed out Jennifer Love Hewitt as someone who had a freaky stalker?
ReplyDeleteDunno Maja, Clooney has a type.
ReplyDeleteLeAnne's hubby has a type
(hah, I actually put typo there and it kind of fits)
I remember the post you are talking about but I can't recall who it was for the life of me:(
Miss X - that's a really good question. I honestly can't recall him dating anyone publicly. He's just the first person who popped into my mind with this. Absolutely unjustified random post, I guess :)
Keanu Reeves and Sandra Bullock. Most girlfriends have had brown hair, including Charlize, and his latest girlfriend, Parker Posey, looks a lot like Sandra...
ReplyDeleteI thought of Ryan Philippe and Abbie Cornish.
ReplyDeleteRyan Phillippe did a lot of of soap opera work early in his career.
ReplyDeleteI definitely, before I even saw anyone else's guess knew this was Gwynnie and Ben. I've heard that he never ever got over her. They did Shakespeare in love together and Bounce. I think this BV is a little exaggerated to throw people off or for dramatic purposes, but it's basically the gist of the story. I think that if Gwynnie and Chris broke up, Jen and Ben would separate.
ReplyDeleteI also don't think he makes her skin crawl (exaggeration), because she's the one that convinced Ben to do the movie Bounce with her, even though she ended it with him and knew he was still in love with her.
My first thought was actually Shia LeBouf.
ReplyDeleteCarey Mulligan for the actress. Wallstreet for the movie where they met
I'm not sure how the women who look like the actress would match though....
Nevermind Shia was on Disney Channel...
ReplyDeleteHrmmm...
@Frufra Thanks! I watch Glee and I don't remember her being on? Huh! I've watched every single episode too. Who did she play?
ReplyDeleteGoing on the Jim Carey guess someone mentioned above, engaged to Renee, with Jenny for a while and they both like kind of similar. If Renee doesn't do that squinty eye thing.
ReplyDeleteThen going off Jim's creepy Emma stone video, maybe they did date? I know the hair color change was for Spiderman but hey, I am just throwing up guesses at this point because I have no clue.
Gah I forgot about his tv experience.
ReplyDeleteThat "only ever done movies" qualifier is brutal!
ReplyDelete@Reno - all I know is IMDB says she was on in 2009.
ReplyDeleteI can barely turn our TV on; with three boys around who can, it's no surprise I've never seen Glee :-).
@RenoBlonde She hasn't been on yet, she is going to be either Rachel or Kurt's mentor in Season 4 and Sarah Jessica Parker is mentoring the one not being mentored by Kate. If that makes sense...
ReplyDeleteOoh, I didn't get that, JSierra. Thanks, and please ignore my incorrect statement !
ReplyDeleteMaybe this shouldn't be a blind or whoever actually has this info should tell the actress. Stalkers can be dangerous.
ReplyDeleteI was thinking Luke Wilson & Gwyneth. Tenenbaums for the movie cried dating and a Google image search for "Luke Wilson dating" skews tall and thin:) Alas he did a HBO show recently...not that I'd ever heard of it.
ReplyDeleteMaybe Macaulay Culkin and Mila Kunis.
ReplyDeleteActually..now that I think about it...What about Vince Vaughn and Jenn Aniston?
ReplyDeletehow could this be gwyneth and ben? he's been married to jennifer garner for years and she looks nothing like gwyneth paltrow.
ReplyDeletekate hudson was not on glee yet, she is going to be on next season
http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/live-feed/glee-sarah-jessica-parker-kate-hudson-season-4-323938
ive really started to take the never tv with a grain of salt, it's almost impossible to find an actor who's never done tv!
vin diesel popped to mind for only done movies, used to be A list (potentially?), not doing much now, but i see he actually has an XXX sequel, a riddick sequel and a fast + furious sequel in production. i know nothing about his dating history though. i think that description fits keanu and jim carrey as well if you fudge the tv angle. i can definitely see this being jim carrey.
i don't think john cusack fits the "doesn't do much now" part, he has tons of stuff in production and has had a movie or two out basically every year going back to the 80s.
I just can't believe this is about Ben and Gwynneth. For one thing, he's not dumb, and if even I know that despite the rumors Chris Martin isn't going anywhere anytime soon, he must too. Ben has also steadily made movies at the rate of about 2 per year for the last several years.
ReplyDeleteVin Diesel is as gay as John Travolta. This isnt him
ReplyDeleteHe actually has a 4yo daughter with model Palermo Jimenez for what it's worth
DeleteAnyone think the "not like anything he appears in reality or even other roles" is a hint about him doing reality shows because that was my initial thought or do u think it was just worded weirdly?
ReplyDelete@grey - ha well that explains why i couldn't remember ever hearing anything about him dating a woman!
ReplyDeletemaybe this is an older actor? steve martin? jack nicholson? jack never got over angelica? he dated lara flynn boyle and they have a similar look, tall, jet black hair, pale skin.
This whole blind kind of reads like the plot to There's Something About Mary... Maybe it's Cameron Diaz and Matt Dillon?
ReplyDeleteI'm on board with the Owen/Kate train. And just to note: There were some people I heard from who said that Kate had Asian looking eyes in Bride Wars, so who knows what's up in Owen's head.
ReplyDeleteWhat about Scarlet Johanson and Josh Hartnett?
ReplyDeleteOR
Leo Dicaprio and somebody?
@cdanluva Leo only dates models with the exception of Blake Lively and he's constantly working.
ReplyDeleteScarlett Johansson married Ryan Reynolds a few years after dating Josh Hartnett. The stalker in the blind chased away a boyfriend that wanted to marry her. So they don't fit.
Were A List, No TV, don't work much now:
ReplyDeleteEd Norton
Joaquin Phoenix
that the tough part.
@Twinkie Toes Ed Norton is engaged and Joaquin Phoenix is supposedly dating his sister :/
ReplyDeleteGoogle Sean Penn and Elizabeth McGovern and read the recent interview/article with her (related to Downton Abbey). She has a lot of ...interesting...stuff to say about her relationship with Sean Penn. I know she doesn't fit bec she's married now, but could "last boyfriend" just mean the last boyfriend she had before she married her current husband? You know these blinds can be tricky. ;)
ReplyDeleteI can see this being Jim Carrey and Rene Zellweger, though, I do applaud Jim for the comment he made about Jenny McCarthy's swipe. I thought it was the more mature view point. And, what she's griping about is exactly why you don't date around and involve your kids. She put her son in that position, not him. When couples break-up, it's a sad fact that the parent keeps the kids and they have little to do with the ex. I digress...
ReplyDeleteI believe that "someone that has a type" on previous photos is ARod, not an actor...:-/
ReplyDeleteSean Penn is too busy being a douchebag to actually care about a lowly woman enough to stalk her.
ReplyDelete@Sparkwee then I have nothing.
ReplyDelete@Twinkle Toes Ha! Me neither! :)
ReplyDeleteI like the Josh Hartnett guess. He was everywhere for a while and had a lot of high-profile projects. Now he just occasionally turns up with a new gf, who invariably is blond and blue eyed.
ReplyDelete(He did a little TV, but only before his career took off.)
I don't know who the actress is.
Josh Hartnett is a bit of a playboy, and is still making movies. Two last year, and one this year so far which is in post-production awaiting release called Singularity that could put him back on the map.
ReplyDelete@Frufra damn that Glee comment came out a lot bitchier than I intended, I meant if my sentence made sense, I didn't really word it well. This is why I should proof read instead of immediately hitting submit.
ReplyDeleteI don't have a guess, but this blind doesn't say the actor has never done tv. It says the actor used to be A list and has only done movies. I've seen this term used here before. So, one can only do movies and still do tv - you know, made for tv movies.
ReplyDeleteI love the Cameron Diaz and Matt Dillon guess.
ReplyDeleteOK, so if Enty is handing out clues in Random Photos, then Leo is the A-list actor and I'll go with Kate Winslet for the actress. The comment that the actor used to be A-list--I think it's a red herring. The blind also does not say that he only dates other actresses, it just says he dates women that look like her.
ReplyDeleteThey have been rumored to have dated before and I admit to having too much time on my hands today, so I hunted the web. Winslet has done TV, most recently, Mildred Pierce on HBO which got her a lot of attention. Leo has a thing for blondes and if you look at them lined up since he dated Winslet, they ALL resemble her. Prior to the DiCaprio/Winslet fling, he primarily dated brunettes.
DiCaprio is selective in his movie roles so he is not always in your face. His reputation is as a party-loving, womanizing, momma's boy with a strong work ethic on set, so a stalker streak and whatever behavior scared the actress would be viewed as surprising. It would just be against his accepted public persona to the world.
I think the "not doing much now," is another red herring. Just like I think it says quite a bit that the actress/ star status is not mentioned. It would make it too easy.
I tried to make Owen Wilson fit, but he has not been with a variety of women since Hudson and Jade Duell is a brunette and does not resemble Kate Hudson.
Actually I thought Enty actually took pains this time to word the "no TV" thing more clearly than he has done in the past so there wouldn't be any confusion. I think no tv here really does mean never ever.
ReplyDeleteI can't think of any girlfriend of DiCaprio who has dyed their hair.
ReplyDeleteJust throwing this one out there: Christian Slater & Winona Ryder with the ex who dyed her hair being Samantha Mathis.
ReplyDeleteNevermind, he's done TV and has been working steadily.
ReplyDelete@JSierra - no worries! I didn't even think twice when I read what you wrote! I was in reality a little confused about the Glee thing. It's all good :-).
ReplyDeleteOn another note, I don't feel like we've really cracked any of the long BI's this week - so frustrating!
Break it down to it simplest parts. How many A list actors are out there that have not done TV and does not do much now?
ReplyDeleteDe Niro
Pacino
Nicholson
Reeves
etc...
I like @Sparkwee's Matt Dillon/ Cameron Diaz guess. I knew someone who dated him briefly back in 2001. She said he never stopped talking about Cameron back then. My friend also said he was quick tempered and drank a lot.
ReplyDeleteI can't find much about his post-Cameron girlfriends but he there was a brunette that looked a lot like her a little while ago.
Keanu is rumored to be gay. Not Owen, he has a great career. Cusack was in 2012, big hit.
ReplyDeleteI like the Matt Dillon idea, but I have heard from people that know him that he is a great guy.
It sounds like his character in Something About Mary.
Christian Bale and Drew Barrymore
ReplyDeleteJack Nicholson has done LOTS of television. He was even on a color (later) episode of Andy Griffith. Enty wouldn't forget that, clips of him from various tv shows have been shown so much over the years.
ReplyDeleteCheck out his IMBD, he was even on Dr. Kildare AND The Barbara Stanwyck Show!
If it were Leo & Kate, he'd have jumped on the chance to do the promo stuff for the re-release of Titanic with her.
ReplyDeleteCan't be Leo since he did tons of tv (Growing Pains anyone?) and continues to work steadily. I really thought we'd see Owen or Keanu in the pictures today. This is a hard one.
ReplyDeleteQuentin Tarantino and Uma Thurman. There was an article in Rolling Stone around the time of Kill Bill in which he discussed his obsession with her.
ReplyDeleteLet's break it down.
ReplyDeleteThey two were in a movie together.
They were a couple for a bit.
He used to be A list and has only ever done movies.
He does not do much now.
He spends a lot of his time doing nothing except watching her.
She is a movie actress but is not above doing television for the right part at the right time. Not her usual though.
They run into each other away from LA, impling they both live here.
He's scary, intense, controlling. Not anything like he appears in reality or even in his roles.
The last few people he has dated have almost been her twin, made her color it to match.
Her last boyfriend who almost married her. He broke it up, impling she's single.
Hmmm, I'm stumped.
Sounds to me like it's a comedy actor.
ReplyDeleteComedy actor —or notoriously relaxed and cool in his movies and RL?
ReplyDelete* "Used to be" A list (not Leo DiCap)
* DOESN'T play "intense" roles (not Sean Penn; not Keanu)
Interesting tidbit: Enty ran a story that sounded similar to this blind yesterday, about Charlie Sheen LOL (obv. can't be him).
Clooney doesn't fit, Jim Carrey doesn't make sense with his older co-stars... no clue :(

ReplyDeleteQuentin Tarantino and Uma Thurman was my first thought, then i was thinking Chevy Chase and Christie Brinkley. Matt Dillon and Cameron Diaz are possible.....
ReplyDeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDeleteGerard Butler and Jennifer Anniston?
ReplyDeleteI know she made a name for herself in TV but she is generally known as a movie actress now; she was on Courtney Cox's show a year or so ago. And didn't Jessica Biel dye her hair blond around the time she was supposedly dating GB?
I could totally see him stalking someone even though he's supposed to be a playa and a ladies' man.
God, this screams Marilyn Manson and Dita von Teese for me, see how much Evan Rachel Wood morphed into her during her relationship with Manson.
ReplyDeleteBleh, but he's not an actor -.-
As I read it, I thought Keanu... But I can't back that up with any reason why....
ReplyDeleteHowever, can someone PLEASE tell me what happened to Keanu's career?!? Like, the last movie I saw from the guy was in 2006... Looking at his imbd, he has been working, and I have heard of "the private lives of pippa lee" 2009 (never saw).... It just seemed like he was B+/A list from 1994-2006... then nothing...crickets...
It makes me wonder if he pissed off someone important or something!? Anyone know?
Keanu has been working. He is producing and directing now. He did a documentary called Side by Side thats gotten great reviews about digital vs film and hes directing a movie in China right now.
DeleteMatt Dillon guested on Modern Family this season as Claire's ex-boyfriend from High School. So if we believe "no TV" it's not him.
ReplyDeleteBilly Bob Thorton was on an episode of Mad About You as a tattoo artist, so also not him.
These are just episodes I saw. There could be other TV appearances, but it only takes one to rule them out (IF we believe "only even done movies").
He might not fit all the clues, but didn't Chris Klein date a damn-near replica of Ginnifer Goodwin after their breakup?
ReplyDeleteMichael Keaton?
ReplyDeleteVal Kilmer seems to fit but he's not well-known for his girlfriends except maybe Cher? or Elizabeth Shue?
ReplyDeleteI want the former A lister to be Benicio del Toro so much (has a string of bottle blonde girlfriends, dated Lilo around the time of her first major blonding, hasn't done anything of note in years), but I can't find the right girl.
ReplyDeleteAnother off the radar actor is Josh Hartnett. Would he have been A-list in his Black Hawk Down days?
I also thought of Josh Hartnett, look how much Gemma Ward and Amanda Seyfried look like eachother:O
ReplyDeleteMaybe the actress is Scarjo? Kirsten Dunst? In that case Daria Werbowy must have been the one to dye her hair blond.
Think Josh was a list around Pearl Harbor, he was the newest man-candy back then. Remember my classmates being all crazy over him :P
He, unfortunately, had a 12-episode role on a TV show in the late '90s. Guess that's not TV we can ignore, huh?
ReplyDeleteI will go out on a very long limb and say it's Tom Cruise and Penelope Cruz.
ReplyDeleteJoaquin Phoenix maybe.. He's done like 3 movies since Walk the Line made him A-list. One being that mockumentary and the others nobody would really even notice.
ReplyDeleteThe girl? No idea, but he got into a bad car crash in 2006 and would seem to be the kind of guy who is intense and I could see him being controlling
daria werbowy is a lesbian.
ReplyDeleteChris Klein and Ginnifer Goodwin
ReplyDelete
