Blind Item #4
This B- list television and movie actress who had one huge hit has been in this spot before when I wrote about how she regretted adopting a child and was trying to give the child back. Unable to do so and fearful of bad publicity, the actress has given the baby to one of the nannies that was caring for her. The nanny lives in a guest house and weeks will go by without the actress seeing her child. The only time she ever makes sure to bring out the child is if there is a red carpet that involves kids. She loves those.
I don't know but I want to punch her.
ReplyDeleteKristin Davis
ReplyDeleteKristin Davis?
ReplyDeleteWow this is awful!!!
ReplyDeleteKristin Davis
ReplyDeletei got nothing. children are not accessories, dumb ass. at least she's being cared for by the nanny instead of being neglected.
ReplyDeleteKristin Davis
ReplyDeleteKatherine Heigl
ReplyDeletekatherine heigl?
ReplyDeletecharlotte for SEX&THE CITY (it's weird because she presented her kid almost 6 months after her adoption)
ReplyDeleteSounds like Kristin Davis, Heigl has two doesn't she?
ReplyDeletekatherine adopted a 2nd child, cant be her.
ReplyDeletehas kristin davis ever brought her child on a red carpet?
Katherine Heigl has two adopted children. She may be crazy but I don't think she'd keep adopting if she wanted to give her first child back.
ReplyDeleteDo we think this person only has the one adopted child? or can they have bio ones too? somehow I dont think someone with a bio kid would do that but...
ReplyDeleteMary Louise Parker?
didnt Calista Flockhart adopt too?
ReplyDeleteBy the way does anyone know what the original blind was?
ReplyDeletePlease don't let it be Charlotte! Ugh. If it is her, then she's more like her Melrose Place character than I thought.
ReplyDeleteLet's hope the nanny is a loving mother-replacement.
ReplyDeleteHeigl has had more than one huge hit. By my reckoning, she has had 3, if you count Grey's Anatomy.
ReplyDeleteI remember this blind coming out around the time that Katherine Heigl, Kristin Davis, and Charlize Theron all adopted babies.
ReplyDeleteIsn't that why they have a period you foster the child before you can adopt them?To prevent things like this from happening?
ReplyDeleteShe probably thought it was a good idea at the time. I don't have one but I can understand in theory it might be fun, but then find out the reality isn't quite so...Too bad she couldn't give it back. At least she gave it to a nanny who is supposedly expert at raising kids.
ReplyDeleteCelebs who adopted:
ReplyDelete1) Mariska Hargitay: 1 bio, 2 adopted (one big hit law and order svu)
2) Sandy Bullock: 1 adopted (not TV, photos out and about with her son all the time)
3) Katherine H: 2 adopted (TV and movies, one big hit Grey's, one big movie hit Knocked Up)
4) Denise Richards: 2 bio, 1 adopted (she's really not B- anything)
5) Madonna: 2 bio, 1 adopted (again not B- except for movies probably D)
6) Mary Louise Parker: 1 bio, 1 adopted, she is also photographed with her son and is at least A TV as she wins Golden Globes
7) Connie Britton: at least one adopted in 2011 (one hit American Horror Story or Friday Night Lights?)
8) Kristen Davis: 1 adopted (two hit TV, SATC and Melrose Place)
9) Charlize Theron: 1 adopted, not TV.
Madonna has 2 adopted, not 1.
DeleteSounds like Heigl to me. It's fitting that she gave up a hugely valuable role because of her own neurosis and now she's giving up on an important, special and totally dependent human being. It fits.
ReplyDeleteProbably not Charlize. You don't see that kid ANYWHERE and she doesn't do a lot of family-friendly movies or red carpets to bring him to. Hell, I forgot she had a kid!
ReplyDeleteHope it's not Kristin. This article makes her seem pretty attentive: http://www.celebuzz.com/2012-11-12/kristin-davis-on-daughter-gemma-roses-blossoming-creativity-were-very-into-chalk/
I found a few articles where she's brought her daughter to the park, sometimes accompanied by a nanny. Not sure.
This sounds like a single woman, so I'm going with Kristin Davis, who only has the one adopted child.
ReplyDeleteMaybe I'm alone in this, but I don't think it's necessarily terrible for her to want to give the child back. Who knows what kind of issues she might have? Far better to "give it back" than continue to raise it in a bad environment where it's unwanted.
I really don't understand WHY she couldn't give it back? Surely there has to be SOME contingency for when an adoptive parent just finds him/herself unable to cope...??
Meg Ryan?
ReplyDeleteKristin Davis seems to fit all the clues but I can't find any red carpet pics of her with her baby. Just pics of her at the park and whatnot.
ReplyDeleteI know it's a bit of a stretch to call Joely Fisher B-, but she one the other hand has multiple red carpet pics with her adopted daughter. Google "Joely Fisher daughter" and her one big hit could be Ellen.
Joely and daughter 1
DeleteJoely and daughter 2
Joely and daughter 3
Joely and daughter 4
Those are a LOT of red carpet shots. I'm into this idea.
DeleteIf Enty means "gave the baby to the nanny" as in the nanny is raising it and she's paying for the child's well-being, that's as akin to giving it back as I think you can get. She pays to have an accessory around? Shameful. Someone should call CPS or the nanny should file for custody. Ridiculous.
ReplyDeleteIt reminds me of people getting rid of pets because they're not working out but this is a HUMAN BEING we're talking about here.So sad.The poor kid!
ReplyDeleteI may not like Heigl but it's not her, she has an adopted sister...
ReplyDeleteI follow Katherine Heigl on instagram and she's posting lovely everyday snaps of her and the kids and her husband and kids all the time. I really doubt this is her. She seems like a doting and loving mother. I think this is either Kristin Davies or Charlize Theron.
ReplyDeleteI think that's very common among those who have kids. They'll have kids to try to save a relationship (horrible idea)...they'll have kids because, "Wouldn't it be fun to have a baby?" (horrible idea...I always think of Britney Spears, whether or not that's what she did).
ReplyDeleteThe reality of it that kids are brutally hard to raise. People like the idea of having kids, but not the reality. So they have the kid and then treat them like an accessory. The kid fits THEIR lifestyle, rather than the other way around. This is why you see morons taking babies to movies and small kids out at stores at 10 PM.
I know people like to pin stuff on Heigl, but she wouldn't adopt a second baby if she gave away the first one. She requested babies with special needs since no one usually wants them. Not her. Charlize has had many hits. Not her either.
ReplyDeleteCharlize has done TV, Arrested Development. I think it's her.
ReplyDeleteI see this on the red carpet:
ReplyDeleteMelissa Rivers: "XXXXX! XXXX! Who are you carrying tonight?"
Actress: "It's Guatemalan! Such beautiful craftsmanship and lines!"
Melissa: "It looks beautiful! Enjoy the premiere! Halle! Halle! What are you..."
Uh sorry I just dont think Charlize is B- and only had one huge hit...
ReplyDeleteDidnt she win an oscar for Monster? Also the Italian Job was pretty big wasnt it?
@Cancan: Charlize has done TV but she's A list so it's not her. But I do remember Charlize been the popular guess when the blind item Enty is referring to was published.
ReplyDeleteGotta be: Denise Richards...one big hit is James Bond movie.
ReplyDeleteCharlize is A list. She can get a movie made just by agreeing to star in it - the definition of A list. Plus the Oscar. 100% A list.
ReplyDeleteThe blind refers to the adopted baby as "she." Viola Davis adopted a girl in October, but she doesn't seem so egocentric as to love red carpets. Kristin Davis probably fits best.

ReplyDeleteA real life Edina Monsoon. That's sad.
ReplyDeleteDoesn't Kristin Davis have a children's TV show on the air? If so, she'd likely be invited to kid-centric events.
ReplyDeleteWasn't Charlize holding her little boy in that picture Enty posted yesterday in Random Photos? She isn't always dragging the little guy around to premieres, etc., but does seem to spend a decent amount of time w/him and strikes me as the kind of person who'd be a good mom. She's also definitely not a B-listers, so I think we can safely rule her out.
ReplyDeleteCan't be Connie Britton...she was on Spin City, FNL, and AHS. Oh, and Nashville, although I don't know if that's a hit.
ReplyDeleteOH, and she adopted a boy.
Connie is photographed with her baby often, she's just not stunt queening.
ReplyDeleteI hate to say it, but I think this is Kristin. She did the whole People magazine with the baby, and there are very few other photos with her. One set of photos show her at the park like its a mommy-baby day, but she's seen passing the baby off to the African American nanny.
Wasnt meg ryan the celeb who sat in first class on flight while her adopted daughter sat with nanny in coach? And she never went back there? I thinks she may fit.
ReplyDeleteMaybe Kristin thought it didn't matter if her baby looked like her, and found out that it did in some way, or perhaps it's age related. She's not that young, I'm sure that was a huge lifestyle change.
ReplyDeleteCharlize is pretty much as A list as you can get. Along with Natalie, Scarlett and Sandra. Kristen Davis has had a few hits - granted they're all from the same franchise - but still multiple hits.
ReplyDeleteIt can sometimes be hard for parents and adopted children to bond at first--I could see a woman wanting a baby and getting one only for it not to meet expectations of instant love. For not to try to make it work, SHE'S the problem.
ReplyDeleteIt never ceases to amaze me how so many people are completely selfish, vapid, unfeeling pieces of garbage.
ReplyDeleteThose pics of Joley (whoever she is) and that beautiful girl are heartbreaking, if this is her.
ReplyDeleteI like auntliddys point!
ReplyDeleteDisgusting, abhorrent and unforgiveable behaviour. Doesn't this person realise how LUCKY she is?
ReplyDeleteMy husband and I suffered the horrendous loss of our baby girl, who was stillborn at 5 months. After 2 unsuccessful rounds of IVF and knowing we can't afford to go through the adoption process, reading such stories makes me want to strangle someone. We have so much love to give, yet people like this entitled cretin can't be arsed to put in the requisite effort to do her job as an adoptive mother!
Been reading this site for years, this is the first time I've been furious enough to comment! Sorry for the rant and the oversharing....
I'm so sorry for your loss.
DeleteSo very sorry, Swissmiss.
DeleteI don't know about Joely. Her body language in those first two pictures seems very genuine and nurturing to me. Plus I think for a Hollywood kid, she seems pretty normal.
ReplyDeleteThis is sad, whomever it is. I don't want to judge too harshly, because there might be, say, bonding issues going on, rather than just vapid selfishness. I dunno. *shrug*
Davis had two huge hits - Melrose Place and SATC..
ReplyDeleteuhhhhhhhhh.... *blinks rapidly* can't speak.
ReplyDeleteMarie Louise Parker? She has adopted a girl.
ReplyDeleteCan't be Charlize, she is A list (at least) and really doesn't seem like the type.
A popular guess at the time of the blind was Sharon Stone.
ReplyDeleteI hate how people believe the worst things about Heigl just because she has a bit of a bad attitude. She has always done a ton for animal rights, and seems to be a nice person with a big mouth.
ReplyDeleteSharon Stone's youngest adopted son is about 6, so it can't be her, but she sure does seem to be neglectful of her two later boys, and she lost custody of her first adopted son to her ex.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry it's likely Kristin. Sounds like someone unused to motherhood whose bio clock was ticking. Heigl adopted a special needs child and THEN adopted again. Denise is used to kids. Sharon has kids. These 3 are unlikely.
ReplyDeleteKristin is one of my best friend's cousins. Her Gammie would still "tan her hide" if she did this, and she will be 103 any day now (might be off by a year, but The elderly lady is still a spitfire!!). Meg Ryan was in my city for a few wks w/John Cougar and while his teenaged sons were w/them, her daughter never made an appearance. Not sure if I believe any of these BI's anymore, but Kristin is a hand's on mommy!!
ReplyDelete@pink palace I love the idea of a celebrity still being reprimanded by their "gammie" Seems so down to earth and Kristins gammie sounds like a hoot! :)
Deletegotta be Kristin Davis, tv and movie, one hit, and shes not A list so its gotta be her. Shes a fool, raising a child is incredible and many of us who cant easily adopt bc we arent loaded are REALLY pissed off knowing she doesnt care
ReplyDeleteDitto, Mooshki. I like Heigl a lot. She tells it like it is.
ReplyDeleteIt is possible to disrupt an adoption. People don't realize how hard adoption can be, especially an older kid (which it doesn't seem this celeb did, since enty says baby) and sometimes they're just not prepared to deal with it. People have this rosy picture, and it's not always like that. Depending on the history of the child, there can be trauma in the past, which can impact attachment and behavior. Bonding can be tough, and people don't like to admit that. That's no reason to give up on a child and pass her off to the nanny though. I definitely don't condone the behavior of this actress and I think that she should disrupt the adoption if she can't/doesn't want to care for the child. There is A LOT that can be done to help a family who is struggling with adoption related issues, especially if the family is a celeb family with money. My only hope is that the child gets the love and support she deserves, regardless of where it comes from!
ReplyDeleteKristin had 2 hit tv shows. Not her.
ReplyDeleteOh, SwissMiss, I am so sorry for your loss, hug to you
ReplyDeleteSwissMiss- so sorry to hear about your loss. FYI, I know someone who did a private adoption for $5k of a newborn from someone they found on the internet.
ReplyDeleteI found the Joely Fisher pics somewhat convincing...but, who knows?!
ReplyDelete@SwissMiss: do NOT adopt a child from the internet. Go to a reputable agency. There are plenty of kids and the process is tedious but worth it. If you put the word out in your Church, your community, your baby will find you. I am sorry that things have been rough for you and your husband but don't give up.
ReplyDelete@RowdyRodimus -- you are hysterical
ReplyDelete"It's Guatemalan! Such beautiful craftsmanship and lines!"
LOL!!!
we had neighbors that waited until they were in their 40's to try and have kids. they had been married forever, but had a business and just kept waiting for the "perfect" time. anyway, they had issues and turned to adoption. they were paired with a brother/sister pair that were pre-school age. after about a month they were just overwhelmed. then, everyone in the family got the flu. they called the adoption agency and asked for help. when they agency told them that, you know kids get sick-so deal with it, they told them to come get the kids. when they got well they were embarassed, but i don't think they were sorry. about a year later they moved. i felt so bad for the kids. but according to another neighbor, the biological grandma took them. hope so.
ReplyDeleteanyway, i think sometimes people have no idea what they are getting into (when it comes to having kids). and like someone else mentioned, personality can be a big factor.
I feel wrong guessing these because a mean-spirited person could be deliberately twisting the situation for a worst-possible interpretation. A movie or TV schedule can have long days for weeks at a time, but the mom spends time with kids on set and weekends that a neighbor wouldn't see.
ReplyDeleteThe baby is a girl. One big hit. Kristin 100%.
ReplyDeleteI think those shots of Joely Fisher may have swayed me. I can't find any red carpet stuff of Kristin and her girl but plenty of them out running errands and at the park, etc. seems legit...
DeleteKristin Davis fits best based on the clues. Also, I think she's a head case.
