Blind Item #1
What former A+ list movie actress who has been married to a former A+ list movie actor for what seems like forever has moved out. A box of Viagra dropped out of his coat pocket the other night on the way to an event. Considering the couple have not had sex in two years, she took this as a sign that he was seeing someone else. Apparently there was not even that much of a fight. She saw it and shook her head and he did not offer any defense and she got into her car and left and has been staying at their place across the country. The question is who is the new woman the actor is seeing because you know he and whoever the new woman is are going to get crucified in the press. Not that he cares.
Annette Bening and Warren Beaty?
ReplyDeleteSjp & Mathew Broderick
ReplyDeleteCZJ and Michael Douglas?
ReplyDeleteAntonio and Melanie?
ReplyDeleteBening and Beaty were my first thought too Christina.
ReplyDeleteShe's seems like she's at that point.....not caring if it ends.
Christina and hothotheat, I totally agree, first names that popped into my head as well.
ReplyDeleteAnnette Bening and Warren Beatty were my first thought too.
ReplyDeleteOnce a dog always a dog, I fear.
I read this as Beatty and Benning, also.
ReplyDeleteI like your guess, Shell. But I've been watching Election a lot lately. Lol
ReplyDeleteDeVito and Perlman?
ReplyDeleteI will get on board with the WB guess.
ReplyDeleteI have to assume that this is an older man because of the Viagra, although I know younger men take it too.
Typically, how old is a guy that needs Viagra? I know some guys take it to get like...super wood, but Antonio seems maybe a little young for that? I don't remember enough about Annette Benning's career to know if she was A+ or not, but she and Warren do seem like the best fit. And I think the general consensus is that Broderick wouldn't have a girlfriend. :)
ReplyDeleteIf it were Matthew B. wouldn't he be with a man? :P
ReplyDeleteI think it's Antonio and Melanie. But what A+ couples have we seen at a recent event?
ReplyDeleteAmber, I'd say Annette is definitely former A+ list. She was in everything for a while. She's been nominated for Oscars 4 times and was in a long list of great movies (and some cheese ass bombs). I mean, she was in Mars Attacks. She's awesome.
ReplyDeleteI am not calling Mars Attacks a cheese ass bomb, for the record. I freaking love that movie.
ReplyDeleteI am with Beatty and Bening.
ReplyDeleteI think it's CZJ and MD..MY first thought.
ReplyDeleteI don't think it's CZJ and MD because they have an infidelity clause in their marriage. Definitely Beatty and Benning!
ReplyDeleteAnnette Bening and Warren Beaty
ReplyDeleteWB & AB. Wonder who the third part is.
ReplyDeleteThe last sentence is odd. Why would Beatty be crucified in the press?
ReplyDeleteI wondered if the word crucified was a hint but didn't see any A-listers married to A-listers in the cast of "Passion of the Christ," "Jesus Christ Superstar" or "Godspell."

ReplyDeleteCould the "crucified" part be due to rumored tension over Stephen (nee Kathlyn's) gender transition? It has been suggested Annette is very supportive and Beatty has struggled more with it.
ReplyDeleteJane
ReplyDeleteFor cheating on his wife of many years and mother of his children? He is supposed to be a changed man from his crazy bachelor days. He used to be a big slut, but Annette tamed him.
Hmmm.... both wb and ab made it to the lacma event on Saturday (pics where drew is showing her baby photos)
ReplyDeletethe blind makes it seem that anette ditched him before the event
I'm on the AB & WB guess. Crucified could be referring to WB movie Heaven Can Wait.
ReplyDeleteI think that if we are going off of either CZJ/MD, SJP/MB, AB/WB then we need to see which ones seem like they have been married forever, haven't had sex in two years, he's old enough for viagra, she's independent and strong enough to be ready to walk, and what does it mean that he'll be crucified? got to be a clue in there somehow. Frankly, I think that all of these couples are on the outs and all of these clues apply to them, except the crucifixion part. I think that any of these husbands would be crucified if this came out. No one likes a cheater, ask Kristin Stewart.
ReplyDeleteHope it's not Annette, I really like her and don't want her in any pain! But they are the first to pop into my head, especially with the tension reported last year re: Stephen and how Annette is supportive but Warren was not.
ReplyDeleteEnty doesn't really plant code clue words (heck, he has trouble getting out plain English). Warren Beatty and Annette Benning have been portrayed as contemporary Hollywood royalty for years (not sure why), and he's the guy Carly Simon supposedly sang about in You're So Vain. They're the only couple where the press would treat it as an untouchable queen wronged by an old hound dog.
ReplyDeleteMelanie Griffith, I just can't see ever letting Antonio go, much less casually; he will have to pry her vise-like death grip off him if they are ever going to split.
Also, no way in hell the press would crucify Michael Douglas, even if he did cheat on CZJ, he's been almost to death and back in recent years.
ReplyDeleteJust a comment--Warren Beatty was not the subject of "You're So Vain." It was David-somebody, not a huge name.
ReplyDeleteI'm too lazy to google his full name, but it was not Warren.
I think the blind in WB/AB. He'll look like a real jerk if he leaves his wife & family at his age, for yet another piece of ass. It will mean he hasn't changed at all....I do think WB is exactly the type to be 'crucified'---- Annette is popular and their family is going through a lot right now.
Amy - Warren Beatty was A+++++++ back in his day, and Annette is a terrific actress, they are definitely Hollywood royalty.
ReplyDeleteMadonna messing with Warren again?
ReplyDeleteThere's a Wiki page about "You're so Vain" that says the name David is whispered and also state that Vanity Fair claims Warren is also whispered.
DeleteI thought Carly Simon never revealed who the song was about. Hm.
ReplyDeleteShe did at an auction
DeleteShe whispered to the winner
Winner was Susan St James husband
WB is 75. uncertain why he and his paramour would get 'crucified' in the press.
ReplyDeleteWho is pictured in the DM today? That's probably where you answer is at...again.
ReplyDeleteWho is pictured in the DM today? That's probably where you answer is at...again.
ReplyDeleteI'll go with Annette and Warren. Haven't there been hints going on for about 2 years now how they were waiting for the right time before splitting? At first it was AB's Oscar nom, and then the change of the sun, so I could see them staying together for that sake. Now, no real reason to keep it up. Not sure how Warren could be crucified over this unless the other woman is AB's best friend.
ReplyDeleteAnnette Bening is seen by some as the sweet angel who tamed WB so yeah, the press and the fans would not be kind.
ReplyDeleteAntonio is the long suffering one in that pair so no one would care much if he cheated.
I think CZJ has an arrangement with MD and he is probably more concerned with his health right now than with fooling around.
It has to be AB and WB, but I hope it's not true.
ReplyDeleteI thought Carly came out a few years ago and referenced some music producer as the subject of the song.
ReplyDeleteI'll change to Annette and Warren.
ReplyDelete@ beguessin - maybe she got in her car to go to the event separately, put on a show, and then go their own ways.
I thought Mick Jagger was the subject of You're So Vain?
ReplyDeleteannette and warren.. maybe that's why they just sold their house this week
ReplyDeletehttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/You're_So_Vain
ReplyDeleteDon't know how to do the cool linky thing, sorry.
I could swear I heard/read that the "You're So Vain" subject was none other than David Geffen, back in his music producer/still dating women days in the '70s. (I'm pretty sure he's also the subject of Joni Mitchell's "Free Man in Paris.") He was enough of a mogul even in the early '70s that he could have had a Lear Jet, although I don't know if he actually did or not, and yes, the girls would have been all over him then. (BTW, Mick is singing backing vocals on the chorus; there's a couple of spots you can definitely hear his voice during the "don't you"s.)
ReplyDeleteAs for the blind, I'm going to agree with Shelly and say it's Sarah Jessica Parker and Matthew Broderick; you don't have to be all that old to want or need Viagra, plus MB is in his 50s now, IIRC. He'd also be crucified because (a) he'd be leaving America's Sweetheart, Carrie Bradshaw, and (b) they have 3 young kids, so running off on them would be regarded badly. Besides, wasn't there a blind within the past few years about him chasing college girls?
Please shut it about the DM. Of course Enty robs from the DM. Everyone does. He robs from others as well. But thankfully he takes the time to write them up in fun blinds for all of us to guess at. I don't know why his use of the DM is such a "reveal" to all of you. Take it elsewhere please.
ReplyDeleteI still say it's Madonna as the other woman.
ReplyDelete@Agent**it,
ReplyDeleteThat would explain the crucified comment since they used to date and she is known for using the image of the cross in "like a prayer" and in her stage shows.
Christina , nice catch with Enty's wording! I stink at these so it was just a hunch for me but with your hint... hope it's a reveal!
ReplyDeleteI don't think SJP would leave her 3 kids to move across the country, and I can't see her disrupting their lives to move them with her. I read this as WB and AB, too, but I think whomever it refers to either has grown children or no children in the picture.
ReplyDeletetoo many couples this could be.. need more info enty.
ReplyDeletei love the above guesses...but i don't see any of them getting 'crucified' in the press were it to get out. tha only one i can think of that would is tom hanks, but i'm not so sure that rita was ever truly 'A+ list'. hmmm.
ReplyDeleteMy vote is for CZJ and Michael Douglas. He would be crucified because she stuck by him as he battled cancer ... and then he cheated. Don't they have a clause in their prenup about sex? Perhaps the time limit expired.
ReplyDeleteWhat about Kevin Bacon and Kyra Sedgwick? They have been together forever, and she seems like a total sweetheart - if it got out that Kevin had a girl on the side I can see people wanting to put his head on a stick. I don't know, just trying to throw other names out there.
ReplyDeleteWhoever it is, I think the crucified part comes from there being something 'different' about the woman. Too young, somehow related, transgendered, different race (if the guy is a known racist, for example), or something like that.
ReplyDeleteAnnette B. is in today's pix !
ReplyDeleteWB would be 'crucified' for leaving the extremely popular and respected Annette Bening & their 4 kids, to go back to the proudly slaggish Madonna.
ReplyDeleteWarren & Madge is like a Senior Citizen version of 'bang bus' or something. America would be grossed out & mad.
Have you seen Warren Beatty recently? *shudder* He looks like his own Madame Tussauds wax, um, dummy.
ReplyDeleteAll in a sudden, I've noticed Melanie Griffith outta nowhere in photos and so I'm gonna guess Antonio Banderas and melanie Griffith
ReplyDeleteIf it is WB there is no way the other woman is Madonna. Warren is like 45 years too old for her. Girl likes 'em young and swarthy. And maybe he'd be crucified because he already seems pretty dickly for his treatment of their transgendered kid. An affair could turn all public sentiment against him.
ReplyDeleteIts the Queen and Prince Philip.
ReplyDeleteSaucy old devil!
Madonna is 55... He is 85 .. 30 year difference, not 45 ... and she's not quite a "girl " any longer .
ReplyDelete75...I aged him ...
DeleteEvery time You're So Vain comes in my head it's the Andi Anderson / Ben Barry version from How To Lose A Guy In Ten Days
ReplyDeleteAs far as married HW couples go, I think that Warren and Annette have been married the longest. The event may have been a political fundraiser and I feel this blind pertains to them. Crucified may have been a reference to his film Ishtar, which was crucified by the critics.
ReplyDeleteThat is exactly right, Robin! I heard/read it years ago, then Carly confirmed (by nodding) on the Stern show, which of course, Howard told the listeners. How are you and your kitty? your neighborhood? and most importantly, how did the currant buns come out?
ReplyDeleteJust finished reading a Carly Simon bio. At an auction, Ebersol won the right to hear who the subject is of "You're So Vain" at a dinner at Simon's home. He brought 6 people. After that, she didn't have a high opinion of him. It was supposedly David Geffen, back during his days with Cher. The apricot scarf was definitely a Beatty nod but a diversion from the truth.
ReplyDeleteShe was displeased with the book but it was a fun read (More Room in a Broken Heart). Hadn't heard the claim that her last husband was exploring his gay side.
Don't know why I'm called "Unknown" as I am using a gmail account with my name...
ReplyDeleteBut wanted to add an addendum about the Simon book. I wouldn't necessarily call it a factual book as there were so many errors. The most glaring was a claim that Jeremy Irons and Simon hooked up, she aborted their child, and Irons left his wife - with whom he is still very much a couple - so read at your own risk.
I'm not sure this is Warren and Annette. She knew what he was when she married him, and could hardly be shocked at his playboy ways. I thought his health was more of the issue? I may be wrong there.
ReplyDeleteIs Antonio really "former" A-list, what with all the Shrek/Puss-in-Boots success?
ReplyDeleteWould SJP be considered "former"?
Aren't Beatty/Bening both permanent A+ list HW royalty? ...and really, I just don't see him taking much heat. As HW royalty, he's fairly Teflon.
I could see Douglas taking heat for not only the fact that CZJ stuck by him as he battled for his life, but also because she recently shared her battles with bipolar disorder - ans they still have youngish children. i could also see her prenup clause giving her all the more reason to be willing to pack up and go...
That said, I still kind of feel like we haven't gotten this one...
