Today's Blind Items - She Used To Be Fun
This actress is C+list. Her name though, well that is another story. I would say she is a solid B+/A- in name recognition. Her problem in the acting department is that she is at that age where it is tough to get roles unless you are a very good actress. She is a good actress, but always counted on some sexiness to get her the very good parts. That and her immaculate connections. When you think of our actress now you think of someone who is deceitful and a pain and a total control freak. She didn't used to be that. Well, the deceitful part has always kind of been there, but she did used to be fun. Always doing what she could to climb that fame ladder and she would do anything to climb it. Lets not kid ourselves, this is a woman who would and did f**k anyone to make her dreams happen. She did something with one A+ list actor that he has never done since. She was that fun and amazing and driven. She is still driven now, but is having a torrid affair on her husband and he doesn't care and she doesn't care about him anymore. She was so driven to see his career succeed and now she is in that survival mode she has had for so long and is looking for her escape; for her next step up the ladder. She had not given up on her husband until recently, but now is just so over it. Back in the day, she once used to be so much fun that she would challenge guys to drinking contests and wanted to party every night. She did have a dark side which she has explored with several of her exes. Some of them involved kink and some of them involved her trying to make sure everyone thinks she is perfect. She is big on everyone thinking she is prefect, even if it means sacrificing one or two of her own.
Megan Fox
ReplyDeleteMy first thought was Michelle Pfeiffer, but not sure if that fits.
ReplyDeletemelanie griffith?
ReplyDeleteWhat did she do that hasn't been done since?! [Scratching head...]
ReplyDeleteIf not for the C+ status, I would say Julia Roberts.
ReplyDeleteMelanie Griffith. I think this is Enty's way of sharing the real story
ReplyDeleteI don't think Melanie has ever tried to convince anyone she is perfect.
DeleteHaving trouble with this. Just throwing out the first to come to mind - MiserAlba
ReplyDeleteOoo, I like the Melanie Griffith guess.
ReplyDeleteMelanie Griffith was my first thought.
ReplyDeleteI dont get the last sentence..
ReplyDelete"She is big on everyone thinking she is prefect, even if it means sacrificing one or two of her own."
One or two of her what? People?
I'm thinking Nicole Kidman. 1 or 2 being her first 2 children with TC.
DeleteI can see this as Griffith! If so, what does this mean "She is big on everyone thinking she is prefect, even if it means sacrificing one or two of her own."
ReplyDeleteThought Jolie but is she c list?
ReplyDeleteKate Beckinsale. Her husband is a director of several movies which she starred in which fits trying to help his career.
ReplyDelete@Grey - JINX!
ReplyDeleteThink the one or 2 of her own is referring to her kids. The ones people speculate have developmental issues.
ReplyDeleteThat Goopie person.
ReplyDeleteWas referring to Jolie above
ReplyDeleteTotally MG!!
ReplyDeleteMelanie is who I thought of, too. She has exes, well known kinkiness, her mother - the "immaculate connection" in Hollywood, she's about to dump her husband, he probably doesn't care, and she's at that "character actress" age when you've got to bring the goods.
ReplyDeletealba and fox are too young for this to be true of them: "she is at that age where it is tough to get roles unless you are a very good actress"
ReplyDeletei was thinking CZJ, though i don't think you can say she is C+ list. Same with Pfeiffer. melanie griffith could work although who sees her as "perfect" - doesn't everyone know about her drug/alcohol problems?
i'm also puzzling over this line: "that and her immaculate connections". seems like a hint but i can't figure out to what. makes me think of madonna - some connection to madonna? or is enty just trying to say she's very well connected in the biz? That could fit melanie (daughter of tippi hedren, ex of don johnson) or CZJ with her douglas family connections.
Er, anyone else think of Lara Flynn Boyle?
ReplyDeleteSounds like Nicole Kidman except for the c list thing. Enty has said Tom changed her into being a control freak.
ReplyDeleteAgent has it - Totally Gwen
ReplyDeleteCatherine Zeta Jones? Great connections, definitely sexy, the age fits, I can see her being a lot of fun. A+ actor could be one of the guys from the Oceans franchise and the deceit could be the rumor that she lied about her age. Don't know about the last line though.
ReplyDeleteThis sounds like Gwtneth to me; her name is really well-known, but she isn't always known for her acting. "immaculate connections" sounds like family is in the business and the super-perfect image.
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure about the adventurous liaisons, but it is kind of fun to think of The Goopster with that kind of side.
Kate Beckingsale or however you spell it
ReplyDeleteIs Melanie Griffith regarded as a control freak though?
ReplyDeleteHow about Kelly Preston although reading this I was thinking CZJ the whole time.
ReplyDeleteGwyneth Paltrow is above C+ list. Also, from Blind Item Reveal day, we learned that she's super clingy and doesn't let go. Doesn't really fit with someone who's "over" her husband.
ReplyDeleteI'd put CZJ in the B-list category, too.
Can't remember who above said it, but the Goopster. Sounds just like her. Melanie Griffith has too many well known drug/alcohol/dependancy issues.
ReplyDeleteMelanie G. jumped into my head but Kelly Preston is a great guess.
ReplyDeleteI was wondering if I was crazy because at one time CZJ was 10 years older than myself, now I am a 3 years younger. Close to 50 than 40 for her
ReplyDeleteI thought of CZJ as well.
ReplyDeleteGoop is big on everyone thinking she's perfect but has she counted on her sexiness in the past?
ReplyDeleteMelanie G makes some sense tho, you guys are good!
The goop isn't in survival mode, besides she is supa clingy.
ReplyDeleteThis reads like a reveal for melanie griffith.
I saw GwennieP all over this too!
ReplyDeleteReads like Paltrow to me.
ReplyDeleteI haven't seen a lot of Goop's work, so I can't really speak of her talent. I do know she won an Oscar...was she that good in Shakespeare in Love, or did that maybe come from connections?
ReplyDeleteTotally Melanie G. - Wasn't Gwen revealed in the blind about the ex's who couldn't WAIT to get rid of her, and who had a hard time dumping her because she was so clingy and needy?
ReplyDeleteThe only two things I have an issue with in regards to this being Melanie is I don't think of her as being deceitful and I don't know what the last sentence about sacrifice is referring to.
ReplyDeleteI do think this would be an actress in that general age group. This person has a lot of history.
I think we can rule out CZJ for this. Michael Douglas' career had already hit its apex before they were even together.
Still throwing Michelle Pfieffer out there...
ReplyDeleteFor the immaculate connections- Madonna wore Michelle's costume from Dangerous Liaisons as her during her live performance of Vogue at the 1990 MTV video music awards... That performance is on Madonna's Immaculate Collection DVD
I first thought Madonna, she is an acting C list for sure. But Melaine is my official guess.
ReplyDeleteI think that last line was supposed to have "kinks" in there somewhere? Like she gives up some to look perfect.
*as her dress
ReplyDeleteKelly Preston is perfect!!We all know she has been lying about her marriage being preggo etc.
ReplyDeleteI read it again, slowly, I don't think anyone has it yet.
ReplyDeleteWho do we consider to be "deceitful and a pain and a total control freak"?
Kim Basinger?
ReplyDeleteEnty certainly answered this BI in his earlier story about Melanie Griffith filing for divorce. My only questions are, who was the A+ actor and what did she do?
ReplyDeleteC+ list actress, with much better name recognition.
ReplyDeleteThis can't be GOOP. GOOP is A list - hags (typo stays) with Beyonce and tons of other A listers.
I can see Griffith and CZJ. CZJ seems more control freaky. CZJ also was in rehab recently. But I am leaning to Griffith for her Hollywood connections.
Ok while I still would argue that Gwyneth is only C+ish due to her acting and A- due to name recognition, the defense concedes that you wouldn't likely be known as PITA clingy AND super adventurous.
ReplyDeleteI do like the Kelly Preston guess. Right age. Definitely dark past. Has sacrificed quite a bit sadly, although I don't carry with the implication that she sacrificed her son, RIP.
I just feel like Melanie is way too obvious with the earlier post about her filing.
@lolaluvs2snack - YES! It could be Kelly Preston!!!!
ReplyDeleteImmaculate Connections = Co$
Survival Mode = Travolta massage scandal
But Melanie is an Oscar winner...that said it does fit.
ReplyDeletemelanie griffith
ReplyDeleteI'm so on board with Kelly Preston. George Clooney for the A+ actor (they used to live together).
ReplyDeleteMichelle Pfieffer
ReplyDeleteA+ List Actor - John Malkovich
She even admits that she is a control freak - http://www.musicrooms.net/celebrity/48280-michelle-pfeiffer-family-adjustment-was-hard.html
She put her husbands career first (David E. Kelley) during the Ally MacBeal, Practice years.
Kate Beckinsale came to mind immediately.
ReplyDeleteThe one or two of her own can refer to Jett (no one knew about the autism until after he died) and her son from another marriage that is disabled (or something?) because she doesn't acknowledge that she even has another child.
ReplyDeleteNobody thinks MG is perfect, though (do they?). Otherwise, I'd like her for this.
ReplyDeleteAnother guess is Nicole Kidman. She's a notorious control freak and there have been other blinds/rumors about her use of the casting couch. A+ could be Tom Cruise; thing she got him to do that he hasn't done since? Have sex with a woman!
Seriously, though. She's got to be higher that C+-list. She won an Oscar. Still thinking...
More evidence for Kelly Preston: She dated Charlie Sheen! Was even shot in the arm (by him?). You have to have a wild side to date him.
ReplyDeleteAt least on the side you get shot on!
DeleteMelanie has been linked to:
ReplyDeleteTatum O'Neal (brief encounter)
Ryan O'Neal
Don Johnson
Warren Beatty - is he considered A+ List?
Don Johnson
Nicole Kidman?
ReplyDeleteWhen did all the fools, monkeys and gulls flock to this site?
ReplyDeleteMelanie has NOT won an Oscar. Nominee yes.
It had been revealed a long time ago that Jett was developmentally-disabled, but not autistic.
Thats not correct. The Travoltas admitted Jett had autism when testifying in the exhortion case. Note, only after Jett's death.
DeleteThats not correct. The Travoltas admitted Jett had autism when testifying in the exhortion case. Note, only after Jett's death.
DeleteI always think of kink in regards to Melanie. She is known for it. I remember an interview Patti D'arbanville did years ago. She said when she was with Don Johson and Melanie was with Steven Bauer, they'd swap and have foursomes. I think Pamela Desbarres ("I'm With the Band") has some Melanie stories as well.
ReplyDeleteKelly Preston-B+/A- name recognition simply because she is marrried to John Travolta. Doesn't she have a special needs child she left behind before marrying John? Also, if she were to divorce John she may have issues with him taking the children? I'm not sure.
ReplyDeleteShe wants everyone to think she's perfect. Always a smile on her face, always smooching and holding hands with her hubby.
Lot's of great connections due to COS.
Also-A+ actor could be TC in that maybe they had a 3-some and actully had sex with him and he hasn't done that since?
I dunno.
Julia Roberts??
ReplyDeleteMy problem with Melanie G guess is that she is open about her past drug use and mistakes. That makes me pause on the "big on everyone thinking she is perfect" thing....
ReplyDeleteDoesn't mean people actually do think she's perfect.
DeleteWhat adult actresses would we consider to be perfect? Especially after reading this site? Bet that's a short list.
She's known to be a pain, very deceitful dumping Keifer at the alter...not sure about the A list actor though??
ReplyDeleteHow about Sarah Jessica Parker?
ReplyDeleteKelly Preston has also been open about past drug/alcohol abuse and has stressed how she gave all that up for the sake of her children/family.
ReplyDeleteI think this is Kelly Preston.
ReplyDeleteIn what world has Melanie Griffith been considered perfect? She's a recovering addict who's had wonky plastic surgery.
Preston comes off as bland, but it's obvious that she's very controlled. Everything's perfect in her marriage. Scientology is fantastic... even though it meant her deceased son never received the treatment he likely needed.
However, her past includes Clooney and Charlie Sheen, the latter being indicative of a not-so-bland past.
I really dont think this is Michelle Pfeiffer..she seems to always be out of blinds and H-wood drama. Apart from a plastic surgery addiction she seems pretty normal. I always thought they have a solid marriage.
ReplyDeleteGoop is higher than C list.
This is either Kelly Preston or Melanie Griffin..I'm leaning to Melanie with the Enty fudge being the "perfect" stuff.
Ice Angel: Agreed!!! Although, I think *Karen* got the A+ with George Clooney. We know George is kinky.
ReplyDeleteAccording to wikipedia, Preston gave George his potbelly pig
@Aly, I meant that NK won an Oscar, not MG. To answer your "question", I've been reading this site for two years but just started posting.
ReplyDelete@ A Fool, you are too funny! When I read that I wondered when did these twats and bitches start flocking?!!! Glad to have you and your monkey! Welcome aboard!
DeleteTotally Kelly Preston. Melanie Griffith has a pretty far from perfect image, and some of the other guesses (GOOP, Kidman, Jolie) are absurd, as they are A list actresses.
ReplyDeleteThis has to be someone past her sexual and sexy prime--she cant get parts based on her looks anymore. I think that bumps Fox, Alba and Roberts.
ReplyDeleteDunaway? No idea what her marital status is. Lange? Not Weaver, too many good parts and Lange too, 'immaculate connections.'??? Who could that be, thats definitely a clue. I thought Madonna, just based on that word, but haha, nothing fits her. I think my other guesses only fit fractions of this blind so its not necessary to discount them, but I do think the woman must be around Weaver's age and not Roberts. Dont think its a 40 year old.
Gwyneth Paltrow.
ReplyDeleteA) "immaculate connections" sounds a lot like the title of Madonna's greatest hits album years back (Immaculate Collection). Madonna and Gwyneth used to be extremely close.
B) I think it is accurate to say that she is now C-list with B+/A- name recognition. She does Glee but she's not really a huge box office draw at the moment (she does supporting roles, like Iron Man or Contagion).
C) Her marriage to Chris Martin has long been rumored to be turbulent, due to his supposed infidelities so I can see their marriage fitting the description above and finally...
D) Her desire to be perceived as perfect: GOOP anyone?
That part about being perfect has more to it, seemingly, than what most seem to be getting from it. Herein, possibly, lies the deceit. It says she has explored her dark side with her exes in some ways that involvef kink AND in some ways that involved making her seem perfect. What I get from that is this actress has had relationships solely for the purpose of public image, to look better to others. That's different from actually trying to be perfect. That would probably be too much work. That kind of fits Nicole more and she has sacrificed two kids.
ReplyDeleteI like the Kelly Preston guess.
ReplyDeleteEnty - how 'bout a post about how you rank A/B/C?
I'm thinking Paltrow;she is/was best friends with Madonna, that hints towards the word 'immaculate connections'.SHe is also friends with Stella McCartney, I remember Kate Bosworth being ignored/banned from all kinds of events when there were rumors of Chris Martin sleeping with Kate. Kinda powerfull.
ReplyDeleteShe is all about making people think she is perfect, her constant whining about cleansing her body, working hard to maintain her body.
A+ actor would be Brad Pitt, her ex. Back then she was still fun, I recall pictures of her and a naked Brad Pitt playing hide and seek in their backyard (no, not kidding!).
Now she comes off as a whiny, clingy controlfreak, with way too much time on her hands, who feels better than everyone else.
@Grey Michelle Pfieffer is not removed from Hollywood drama.
ReplyDeleteIn her early years starting out in the business she was brainwashed by a cult, and she has had numerous affairs on set. Her affair with John Malkovich broke up his marriage at the time. She is full of scandal. She has just mastered the art of appearing perfect. ;)
Oh, and didn't she steal the script and role for Shakespeare in love from Winona Ryder? Perfect example of the deceitful behavior.
ReplyDeleteI don't think Kelly Preston is B+/A- in name recognition, nor do I think she's C+ professionally. What was the last movie she did? That dreadful "View From the Top" with Goop? And her other acting job -- pretending that she has sex with Travolta -- is not at all convincing.
ReplyDeleteI think it's either Melanie Griffith or Goopy, with my money being on Goop. The A+ actor is Brad Pitt. She's deceitful for stealing the "Shakespeare in Love" part from her former best friend Winona Ryder, and you know she slept with that disgusting pig Weinstein for the part. Her connections are her parents and Steven Spielberg. She's a total control freak and a pain in the ass, and spends all of her time trying to convince people that her life is totally dreamy. Famous exes include Pitt, Affleck, Luke Wilson, Aaron Eckhart, James Purefoy, and others. "Sacrificing" could be a reference to dumping friends when they become inconvenient -- Winona, Madonna -- in order to pal around with her new BFF Beyonce.
...does sound like Paltrow!
ReplyDeleteFor those who don't believe it; here is a nude Brad Pitt fooling around with a still fun Gwyneth Paltrow on vacation.
ReplyDeleteNsfw obviously xD
http://www.omgblog.com/2009/05/omg_classic_brad_pitt_naked.php
I don't think Gwyneth would be considered C+ right now. She's apart of the Iron Man franchise.
ReplyDelete@ Jennifer H, that's a brilliant analysis. Seriously, good code cracking. I still think she is sexy but yeah, she was quite the runner in the late TC part of her marriage and I never felt chemistry between NK and her latest husband. Sacrificing her own, dead on, but how does that go towards the perfect image? I change my mind, youve convinced me. Great job!
ReplyDeletePlus Gwyneth won the oscar..
ReplyDeleteThanks @misspoppy. Not trying to cause trouble—just having fun guessing like everybody else!
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of which: I can see aspects of NK, MG, Fishsticks Paltrow, and KP in this blind, but none of them seem to fit exactly. I'd maybe cosign KP, but did she ever really have any "very good parts"? I never think of her as an actress so much as Travolta's beard.
Hmmmm - a good case is made for both Paltrow and Preston. In any case, those nude pics of Brad are something else!
ReplyDeleteThe Kelly Preston suggestions are solid but she is not a good actress. Anyone see Cat in the Hat? OMG, a new low for everyone involved. Besides that I dont remember any stellar performances. I dont see Michelle P at all in this, she's bern gone too long and Id be thrilled to see her back.
ReplyDeleteI think Jennifer H nailed it.
Jennifer H., Nicole did not "sacrifice" two of her children. Connor and Isabella were raised as Scientologists, and when GMD divorced her, she was declared a suppressive person. Connor and Isabella basically shunned her, in the truest sense of the word. Isabella has said that they talk regularly, but I sincerely doubt that's true. They went to their mom's wedding to Keith Urban, but I think they were only allowed to do that because it would raise too many questions if they didn't.
ReplyDeleteI think Nicole gets a really bad rap when it comes to her relationship with her two oldest kids, because I have no doubt in my mind that everyone Tom has let into those kid's lives have poisoned their minds against their mother.
Nicole admitted though that Tom was playing dirty and it was hurting the kids more (not to mention he could have bankrupted her) and that she just caved in...that was pretty well known at the time od the divorce. Could be wrong, but then everything we know could be wrong about everybody, yes? Thats what I come away with every day on CDAN.
Delete"Let's not kid ourselves" -- this is totally Nicole Kidman. I read all the responses and then read the blind again and that phrase completely jumped out at me.
ReplyDeleteI thought of Katherine Heigl
ReplyDeleteI wasn't sure about Kelly Preston but I'm remembering her in Jerry McGuire and thinking that was a sexy role. Maybe the A+ list actor was Tom Cruise and they had a fling. And that was the first and only time he flung with a woman? ;)
ReplyDeleteNot Nicole or Goopster because they both have Oscars.
ReplyDeleteI'm thinking Goop.
ReplyDeleteI think what Texshan says is true in that Bella and Connor were taught to hate their mother HOWEVER we also know from here that after meeting TC everything she does is controlled for media perfection. I have read that in the beginning she was loads of fun and had a loud raucous laugh so something in her was killed. The kink could be with Karvitz, doesn't he seem like he'd be into some fun stuff? And that relationship was great for her image vs. the typical ice queen people accused her of being.
ReplyDeleteThe sacrifice could mean it's perceived that she left the kids BUT I wonder if it has something to do with the friendship with her and Naomi.
I don't see this as Michelle, she has taken parts that don't use sexy.
I'd say either Nicole Kidman or Kelly Preston - both women have two kids that could fit the "sacrifice" part...Preston has the developmentally disabled son she never sees and her son who tragically died...Kidman has the $cibot kids...and he does say in the blind "let's not KID ourselves...."
ReplyDeletePersonality-wise though, I'm leaning toward Preston, especially with the living with Clooney part.
came here to say Nicole Kidman but I just bought a ticket for the Kelly Preston train!
ReplyDeleteAnnette Bening?
ReplyDeleteAngelina
ReplyDeleteI don't understand how Michelle Pfieffer can be wrong because she takes roles that don't require sexy (which I don't agree with if you look at her body of work) and then we're debating between Nicole Kidman and Gwyneth Paltrow who both won oscars for playing down their looks.
ReplyDeleteNew poster, here. Welcome, me! In Re: the NK guess--Eyes Wide Shut, anyone? She certainly explored some "dark" things with her ex, McGlib. (McGlib gets my vote, BTW, if I'm allowed to vote, being a recent immigrant to the site and all.)
ReplyDeletePretty sure this is Nicole Kidman. At first I thought the Immaculate Connections reference was a link to Maddona, but really, how could Madonna help an actress? Wasn't a reveal that NK had an affair with Warren Beatty when she was starting out? And she has a thing going with her trainer? I think the A+ ex is Cruise, and the thing he hasn't done since could be any number of things, including having a boy-girl relationship ;)
ReplyDeleteI think her last movie was direct to dvd, but she is a good actress.
I was on the Goop train until re-reading " C+ actress with B+/A- name recognition"
ReplyDeleteWouldn't Goopster and Nicole Kidman have just straight A list name recognition? I feel like everyone knows their names.
For this I could see Kelly Preston---people know her as John Travolta's wife moreso than as an actress (At least I do. I can honestly name like 1 movie she's been in...).
And I think those of you mentioning her children make a good point about the sacrificing line.
Oh true, Blister, she sacrificed Jett for CO$? She's still not a good actress though, unless you count faking loving JT. A list talent there.
DeleteAlso, "Let's not kid ourselves" could be a big clue, pointing you in the Kidman direction. Her middle name is "Mary," as in virgin? Could be your "immaculate" clue resolved.
ReplyDeleteWhere does Enty say this person hasn't won an Oscar? Is it because he says she's C+ professionally? I would argue that having an Oscar doesn't make you A-list forever. Cases in point -- Marisa Tomei and Adrian Brody.
ReplyDeleteSparkwee -- how did Gwyneth "play down" her looks in SIL? During the few minutes onscreen when she was pretending to be a boy? That was a very small part of her performance. For most of it, she was in elaborate costumes and hair.
Kelly Preston lives a lie every day of her life, and she's had some pretty spectacular exes.
ReplyDeleteSince she is of no sexual interest to John she may be having an affair, and he wouldn't care.
She was driven to seem to have the perfect marriage after the death of Jet by having a false pregnancy to keep John from coming out of the closet and blowing the whole charade out of the water.
GP and NK are A list actresses with A list name recognition.
ReplyDeleteAnyone who won an Oscar (Kidman, Paltrow) can be ruled out as they'd never be called "C+ List." This is Kelly Preston. "Sacrificing one or two of her own" refers to the secret disabled child she denies having from her previous marriage and her son Jett, who clearly needed more treatment than the CO$ idiots would allow. If you go to Kelly Preston's website, all you see are photos are how "perfect" her family is (far from true). This is her.
ReplyDeleteKidman, Pfeiffer and Paltrow have all had major starring roles recently, which puts them well above C+. Griffith would fit except that she's had to be open about her drug problems for the past 10-15 years.
ReplyDeleteBeckinsale fits because she's managed to maintain high name recognition despite a weak film career.
Preston's an interesting guess, because this is the kind of dark sins that would be in her COS auditing records. Maybe the A+ actor is also a Scieno (but not John T.). I can guess what the "never done since" was.
Jolie, Kidman and Goop are all A-listers - I'm surprised anyone would consider them 'C'.
ReplyDeleteKelly Preston comes to mind - 'C' + name recognition - thanks to her husbands erring ways. And there was that whole shot in the arm incident when she was dating Charlie Sheen.
And the fact that she was dating Charlie Sheen indicates to me that she's a better fit for this description:
"she once used to be so much fun that she would challenge guys to drinking contests and wanted to party every night. She did have a dark side which she has explored with several of her exes."
@Texshan Yes, her looks were played down by playing a girl playing a boy in Shakespeare in Love. Yes, she wasn't a boy through the whole film, but she definitely wasn't the typical movie star "sexy" when she wasn't in a male costume either.
ReplyDeleteI agree with the others who say that Kidman, Coop, etc have more than b name recognition.
ReplyDeleteSo now I'm moving onto the KP train. But I didn't know they had another disabled child?
Kelly fits except for the "good actress" part. IMO she's maybe ok, she's more in the Razzie category.
ReplyDeleteIt seems to me the least reliable clue in these posts is the ranking of the celebrity as "Alpha"-list, since people repeatedly cannot get a handle on the Enty's rating system. I might call NK C+ in the acting department, because, although she is a "good" actress, she cannot open a flick on her name recognition alone. And she's at that age where it's getting harder to find good scripts, Bewitched notwithstanding. In any case, I was at first on board with KP, but at this point, I'm still liking NK. JMHO
ReplyDeleteJust looked up KP, she's playing John's daughter in the Gotti movie!?
ReplyDeleteAhhh I'm waffling! Back to thinking it could be NK!
ReplyDeleteI've never seen KP act so I've got no opinion on that - the only reason I know her is because of her marriage. I wonder if the people who don't read gossip would even know who she is?
I think the husband is key here, it sounds like she was more famous than her husband: "She was so driven to see his career succeed" so that would eliminate quite a few of our guesses.
ReplyDeletePast "C+" revealed on this site include: Monica Raymund, Ashley Judd, Lauren Prepon
ReplyDelete"B-" reveal as actress: Katie Holmes
GOOP and Kidman are not C+
I am still on board with Preston
Kelly Preston is in the pictures for today. Noted Enty!
ReplyDelete"...since people repeatedly cannot get a handle on the Enty's rating system."
ReplyDeleteOn the contrary, the BI's have been very careful about the "ratings" since the overkill of dubious BI's about "A-list" celebs a few months ago (making it obvious that the people writing the BI's do read the comments).
I thought Melanie Griffith all the way through until the "perfect" part. She has always seemed pretty open about her not being perfect, especially since many of her issues were well known. Unless it is about being the perfect wife or having the perfect marriage. She did try that.
ReplyDeleteOkay, let's say NK is no longer in the running. The fact that KP could be having a torrid affair doesn't strike me as that surprising, because wouldn't she and JT have always had an open marriage? Don't beards get to have fun or is it only the mustaches? Also, what "very good parts" has she had in the past?
ReplyDeleteMore revealed "C+": Joely Richardson, Rebecca Romijan, Katrina Bowden
ReplyDeletethe word "driven" being used repeatedly made me think of DAYS OF THUNDER, which led me to think NICOLE KIDMAN.
ReplyDeletethe word "driven" being used repeatedly made me think of DAYS OF THUNDER, which led me to think NICOLE KIDMAN.
ReplyDelete"The one or two of her own can refer to Jett (no one knew about the autism until after he died) and her son from another marriage that is disabled (or something?) because she doesn't acknowledge that she even has another child."
ReplyDeleteWHAT?! Never, never, never have I heard this. Had no idea. Wow.
Back to the BI...I don't understand how this actress had immaculate connections and STILL had to go the casting couch route. If you have the first, you don't need the latter, wouldn't you think?
So, my guess is either KP or GP, despite that infamous revealed BI. I pretty much take ALL of the BIs and their reveals with a grain of salt anymore anyway. A can't equal B in this case (clingy vs. doesn't care), but again, the rest of the description sounds like GP.
As far as the C+ given by Enty, I think he means that her acting is just a little bit (+) above average (C). And I would agree, Oscar or no.
I really really like the Kelly Preston guess, she is in the photos today which she hasn't been in ages. And the clues all fit to me. And the rumor is she ditched her first kid to be raised by her mom so it wouldn't derail her career.
ReplyDeleteDeciet- pretending she was pregnant when she really wasn't. Swearing up and down Jett wasn't autistic but was ill from breathing in cleaning fluids as a baby.
Kelly was in Jerry Maguire with her scientology buddy Tom Cruise.
I just hope if she does ditch JT she ditches CO$ also.
We've all been guessing about what COS could have on Tom Cruise (or Travolta) that would be such scandalous blackmail they'd never leave the "church." Maybe this BI is a hint regarding that and it's actually aimed at the A+ actor as a warning.
ReplyDeleteWhat about Ashley Judd? She actually fits pretty well, including the connections, the age, the looks, and she is definitely someone that would be thought of as deceitful and a pain and a total control freak. Bonus points for using the word "driven" a lot, and sacrificing one or two of her own could be her contentious relationship with her mother and her sister.
ReplyDeleteDamn it, now Im on the KP train. You all are too good. Please link the article about her first child. I have never heard that before, ever and Im fascinated.
ReplyDeleteBridget, I was thinking Ashley Judd too.
ReplyDeleteIt was NEVER a secret that Jett was autistic. And the reason YOU didn't hear about her son with Kevin Gage is because not every single celebrity child is public domain, she wasn't really known until Charlie Sheen shot her, and that kid is almost 27 years old and has a life of his own out of the public eye. There used to be a times when the world didn't actually know everything.
ReplyDeleteAs for Melanie Griffith, she started dating Don Johnson when she was 15 years old, with Steve Bauer in-between, then back with Don, and was with Antonio Banderas before her divorce from DJ the second time was finalized. She's a serial monogamous and isn't one to just "have fun"
ReplyDelete"What about Ashley Judd? She actually fits pretty well, including the connections, the age, the looks, and she is definitely someone that would be thought of as deceitful and a pain and a total control freak. Bonus points for using the word "driven" a lot, and sacrificing one or two of her own could be her contentious relationship with her mother and her sister."
ReplyDeleteHuh. You're absolutely right, now that I think about it.
And the whole connections-casting couch question I raised would still fit, because while her family has musical connections, they didn't necessarily have them in Hollywood.
By George, I think you've got it.
(Plus, didn't someone here say that they knew her from her days at my beloved UK? And that she was a party-girl who would sleep with anyone? If you're that person, please come back and spill.)
ReplyDeleteGoing along with the Kelly Preston guess..wasnt she the woman Tom Cruise had wild sex with in Jerry Maguire?
ReplyDeleteFits the "getting parts on their looks"
I absolutely one-hundred percent do not think this is GP or NK. Neither are knockouts. Neither rely on their looks for casting.
Yes, i totally agree it just maybe Ashley Judd. Her husband is an Indy 500 race car diver - hence the "Driven" reference. And she has been really involved in his career. Also didn't Himmmm reveal something about her and a threesome in a hot tub with a famous actor back in the day ... ?
ReplyDeleteKelly Preston
ReplyDeleteI was thinking this was CZJ also but then Michael Douglas is Hollywood royalty so, she would better be served worrying about her own career than his. He will be like Paul Newman, Robert Redford and Clint Eastwood, acting until their last breath.
ReplyDeleteBut I must be either old as hell or just out of it, because do guys outside of frats really consider a woman challenging them to a drinking game is a sign of a fun woman? And partying? Did he want a wife or a yacht girl?
After reading everyone elses posts, I'm going with Kelly Preston.
ReplyDeleteI vote Gwyneth and hope this gets revealed.
ReplyDeleteI also vote Kelly Preston. Gwyneth and CJZ are A's in name recognition. Kelly's mainly known these days because of John's various scandals, which have landed them on a bunch of tabloid covers. Here is an interesting thread from an ex-scientologist message board about KP's first son.
ReplyDeleteKelly Preston? Doesn't she have a child that lives on Hawaii with it's grandparents because it's disabled?
ReplyDeleteWell, I have to admit that the sacrifice part does sound a lot like KP. If she wants to look 'perfect' an autistic son and a disabled one don't fit that picture, as horrible as it may sound. And of course staying with a man eventhough everyone knows he is gay and the romance isn't real.. Why do that? Is she so desperate for fame? Fits the blind..
ReplyDeleteMy first thought was Sharon Stone. But she's been divorced for awhile.
ReplyDeleteDidn't know about KP's first child. That's pretty horrible.
Eurgh, KP actually sickens me. This news (to me) of a shunted off elder child reeks of her callousness and rancid soul. Definite contender for 'that' C word!
ReplyDeleteWouldn't be surprised at all if it was her, but I'm still of the belief JT is the one who wants to escape.
Laying my bet on Ashley Judd.
Wait a minute, back when Jett died, weren't there rumors going around that John wanted to leave Scientology, but KP dug in and said absolutely not? So, if they ever do divorce, I think he'll get the f*ck out of the CO$ and she'll stay.
ReplyDeleteIsn't anyone going to guess Betty White? :(
ReplyDeleteI don't think that Judd has ever been rumored to be deceitful per se. Also, the clues sound like the husband's career tanked despite her efforts. Franchitti just won Indy for the third time, making him one of the all-time greats in Indy Cars.
ReplyDeleteI'm hoppin' on the MG train.
ReplyDeleteAKM, what happened to the relaxed kitty photo? I'm always so flustered when things I get used to change suddenly....
ReplyDeleteHas George Clooney been engaged before or since Kelly Preston?
ReplyDeleteSacrificing her own - they tried desperately to minimize Jett's illness(es). While I don't think they did anything outright to contribute to his death, I think the lack of medical treatment can be considered negligent.
Kelly Preston will never give up the John T. gravy train. Of course she cheats on her gay husband and he doesn’t care. But get rid of him. No way! She would fall off the relevant map so fast she’d curl up and die.
ReplyDeleteMelainie G. was never thought of as perfect. I could see this being Goop though. “one of her own” could mean her closest friends (madonna and others) in the biz that she uses and steps on while on her way to the top. She has A+ connections from her parents.
What about Brook Shields?
meryl?
ReplyDeleteSJP. Reference to sexy roles, plus the use of the word Big.
ReplyDeleteHow about Jamie Lee Curtis? who was in the movie Perfect and has the family connections as well as being married to a celeb.
ReplyDeleteHow about Demi Moore?
ReplyDeleteBingo! Jamie Lee Curtis! And she married the Christopher Guest from Spinal Tap.
ReplyDeleteIt's Sarah Jessica Parker. Girls Just Want To Have FUN.
ReplyDeleteMatthew Broderick is the husband--How to SUCCEED in Business Without Really Trying.
"she is at that age where it is tough to get roles unless you are a very good actress"
ReplyDeleteCan't be Melanie Griffith, then. She's 54. She passed that age almost 15 years ago.
"She did something with one A+ list actor that he has never done since."
ReplyDeleteCan we have a reveal on what this something is? I don't even need to know the participants, I'm just dying to know what the something is!
123recrds - thanks, interesting...
ReplyDeleteIngrid - her dark side, russian roulette (?) w/Sheen, she was shot and never pressed charges
ReplyDeleteI'm on with SJP, too.
ReplyDeleteI just looked at the IMDB page of Kevin Gage, the first husband of Kelly Preston.
ReplyDeleteInstead of simply erasing or deleting mention of Preston and Gage's child, the Co$ goons instead have removed mention of the child and have noted this:
Kevin and his ex-wife, Kelly Preston, had no children.
Smoooooooth.
WTG, you Co$ nimrods. Like THAT doesn't stick out like a sore thumb.
Gwyneth Paltrow.
ReplyDelete@Mango, if you use archive.org, it says they had one child together ;)
ReplyDeleteI don't think this is Nicole Kidman because she is higher than C+ and didn't rely on being sexy HOWEVER, no one has mentioned her rumoured past boyfriends included Q-Tip and the kinky ex of Liz Hurley, Steven Bing.
ReplyDeleteI think this is either Gwynnie or Nicole.
ReplyDeleteKelly Preston is the only actress mentioned by you guys who didn't have much of a career. She totally devoted herself to Travolta's career. And now that he has been exposed (heh) she has to find another money and fame and power ticket.
ReplyDeleteTotally her. Gwyneth, Nicole, Michelle, Melanie, Julia and Zeta all have their own careers. Kelly Preston's career has been all about being married to John Travolta and Scientology. And it's a shame, because she does seem like a fun person and she's not a bad actress.

Well she did have exuberant sex on top of Tom Cruise in Jerry Maguire. Never seen that before or since.
Tommy is rumored to be a pushy bottom. What kinky way could a woman satisfy him that he might not do with another man?
ReplyDeleteThink about it....
Angelina Jolie. She's freakin' about getting older and losing the f-ability factor. And notorious for extra curricular activities and kink.
ReplyDeleteMelanie Griffith (Harrison Ford); Kelly Preston (George Clooney)
ReplyDeleteCatherine Zeta Jones... The 'sacrificing one or two of her own' in order to appear perfect is an unusual line... made me think of perhaps terminating a pregnancy in order to keep a figure perfect?
ReplyDeleteNicole Kidman. Gotta be Mrs. Keith Urban.
