Today's Blind Items - Kindness
I give this A++ lister a lot of grief and goodness knows she is the biggest diva on the planet. I know she didn't invent diva, but she has perfected it into something that no one will probably ever be able to match. While other people talk about what they are going to do or try and get a bunch of people do some giving, our A lister puts her purse out there and writes really big checks to help kids. She has given at least a million dollars a year every year for the last ten years to children's organizations. Nothing in the news. No splashy announcements. She goes and visits the organizations when she can. Sometimes there is press there, but she prefers it to be all about her and the kids. At most of them she does not even wear much makeup and doesn't wear heels either. The diva is gone and in the diva's place is someone who wants to do what she can to change the lives of as many people as she can for the better. She has thousands of kids who are truly thankful for her this holiday season.
Mariah Carey!
ReplyDeleteMimi, bless her heart!!!
ReplyDeleteMariah. I'm glad she is thankful for everything she has
ReplyDeleteAngelina
ReplyDeleteI actually read this as Julia. Is Mariah really A++?
ReplyDeletechristina a? because o the menion of makeup not being worn.
ReplyDeletemariah carey!
ReplyDeletefor the note, more 10 years,she did an interview with a french very young journalist who was pregnant.She sent some presents to the journalist's office for the baby
if this is revealed on Jan 1 as Mariah, I will buy her last cd on itunes.
ReplyDeleteWhoever she is, good for her. If I knew who she was, I'd give her a pass on some future diva-tude.
ReplyDeleteThe "diva" made me read it as Mariah...then I thought about it more and it sounds like Angelina.
ReplyDeleteHappy Thanksgiving all!!!!
Could be Mariah
ReplyDeleteBarbra Streisand
ReplyDeleteIt could be anyone but the only one i see the no makeup thing being shocking is christina.
ReplyDeleteHands down Mimi! Bless her heart!
ReplyDeleteMy first thought was Mariah, and it seems I wasn't alone in that--the "not wearing heels" bit pretty much clinched it for me. For all her world-class divatude, I do tend to think she has a good heart, and assuming this is her, it's good to hear she's doing things like this.
ReplyDeleteMy first thought was Mariah as well...
ReplyDeleteThe "heels" comment makes me think this is Mimi. She made a comment about never taking her heels off.

ReplyDeleteXtina
ReplyDeleteMimi - I think she's a total diva but also kind hearted. This has her written all over it, and although I want it to be revealed, I kinda hope it isn't and she's able to keep it personal and private.
ReplyDeleteAngelina
ReplyDeleteMariah epitomizes Diva. I think she is definitely A++ is the world of music.
ReplyDeleteI was reading it as Angelina and ended reading it as Mariah. She is the diva and loves heels. Angelina on the other hand is A++ and connected to organizations. It could be any of them. It good to know stars have a kind heart and share with the ones, who are less fortunate
ReplyDeleteMimi for the win
ReplyDeleteMadonna? There is an article in the Daily Mail today about her being makeup free. She is a huge diva beyond global proportions. Mimi is also a good guess.
ReplyDeleteIt's Mariah - Angelina is known to not wear heels a LOT. Usually all those pap photos of her herding her kids down the street - she's always in flats.
ReplyDeleteMadonna - also not known to always be in heels. Definitely Mariah.
ReplyDeleteJlo?
ReplyDeleteSince it didn't say actress, I was thinking Posh.
ReplyDeleteMariah has a camp for kids in upstate new York. she always goes visit them during summer
ReplyDeleteMariah has always given to kids' charities. She also is a big animal lover. I remember years ago she was on Rosie, and Rosie asked her about her giving up her seats at the grammy's for underprivileged children. It's definitely her!
ReplyDelete"heels" made me think it's Posh.
ReplyDeleteYes, the heels comment stood out. I first read this as Mimi with her lambs but after reading the heels comment this made me think of Posh.
DeletePosh is the only one Enty really points out if she is not wearing heels.
ReplyDeleteMariah Carey. She always seemed like a genuine sweety. With talent like that I can't really blame her for being a diva, she's been writing her own stuff for years, so she's got the talent, the goods, the creativity, and the heart of gold to match. This is so sweet it's got to be fattening.
ReplyDeleteJust to end the Xtine talk, I don't thing she has the money to give away a million a year - she has money but not like that.
ReplyDeleteMimi could buy Xtina 100 times over. And didn't she have a bit of a problem conceiving? Mime.
Posh has enough of her own kids and is A or A+ not +++. Babs came to mind too but only for a sec.
Toss-up between Christina and Mariah, but leaning towards Mimi.
ReplyDeleteIf the blind had ended after the first sentence, we'd all know he was talking about Mariah. Do you really know anyone who's a bigger diva than her?
ReplyDeleteI'm on the Mariah train.
ReplyDeleteI saw an interview for precious where she talks about lack of makeup for the roll and how hard it was for her to not apply even a little.
Plus, she's the epitome of Diva, but I've never heard of her becoming nasty like Divas tend to.
And it would explain why Nick Cannon is so crazy about her - he seems to be a really nice guy.
ReplyDeleteJLo is my guess. Mariah would want publicity for her good deeds.
ReplyDeleteMariah also used to have a camp (maybe she still does?) for underprivaliged girls.
ReplyDeleteMadonna's in today's pics without make-up. A clue?
ReplyDeleteGotta be Mariah. Years ago I heard about what she did for her sister's kids, who are all grown up now, so I would not be surprised if she continued to support other kids who need a little help.
ReplyDelete(I don't like 'underpriviledged'. Sounds like something from a Dickens story).
Whoever it is they are brilliant. Long may they continue.
Madonna and JLo are in the pics today w/ makeup comments.
ReplyDeleteSounds like Mariah. She definitely is a diva, but I've never thought she was evil/bitchy. She's got that genuine sweetness about her. In any case, good for her!
ReplyDeleteMy first thought was JLo, but Mariah is also a good guess.
ReplyDeleteI hope it's Mariah...I really like Nick, so I want her to turn out to be really a good person--he seems like a really good husband and father, so I hope she deserves him.
ReplyDeleteAngie or Madge
ReplyDeleteHas to be Mimi. I think it's Lainey who always jokes that Maria has to be escorted everywhere so she doesn't fall off her heels. But the Posh suggestion made me think too -- you rarely see her without heels.
ReplyDeletePosh is not A++ at anything! If it was her, it would mention the hubbs.
ReplyDeleteI agree with the Mariah Carey guesses. She can out diva any of the other guesses--including J Lo.
ReplyDeleteMadonna. The comment with the picture is that she isn't wearing make-up, which is almost directly analogous to this description.
ReplyDeleteGood on her.
I read this as Madonna or Mariah. Whoever it is, they are awesome. I love these blinds :)
ReplyDeleteNo one else thought of Diana Ross? When I think of "the biggest diva on the planet," I think Diana.
ReplyDeleteHumph. I'm old.
I read this as Madonna but Mariah and Posh make better guesses. The heels thing points to Posh but the diva comment makes me think Mariah.
ReplyDeleteI would say this is Babs actually. She, in my opinion, is the biggest diva of all time.
ReplyDeleteIt's Mimi. Heels. Diva. Kids. She has done this from the beginning and does NOT advertise. She has a good heart but is just a little "off". Bless her hello kitty heart.
ReplyDeletethe no makeup comment makes me think this is Madonna. Whoever it is though it's nice to see one of the monster divas isn't all bad.
ReplyDeleteAngelina as in Angelina Jolie?
ReplyDeleteAre you kidding me? That woman is photo'd out EVERYWHERE. You all haven't forgotten her charity work in Africa, where she is ALWAYS photo'd.
Mariah Carey is my guess.
What about Cher? Don't say actor (I don't think). Cher seems like someone who would always wear heels...I also thought of Dolly P.
ReplyDelete"doesn't say" not "don't say".
ReplyDeleteI read this as Posh, because of the heels comment. EntrY's also written before about her stealthy giving.
ReplyDeletekeeping in mind that the first sentence says enty gives this person a lot of grief... I'm leaning towards Mimi too.
ReplyDeleteIt most assuredly could be Xtina: American recording artist and actress, Christina Aguilera has an estimated net worth of $90 million.
ReplyDeleteBut I don't think its her.
Hands down this is Mariah. Yes should would be A++ she is one the most successful recording artists in history, has broken records by Elvis and the Beatles, and despite no longer being a 20 something, she is still hugely successful in her career (perfumes, etc.) Plus Enty practically gives it away with telling us about all the grief he/she gives her. I've never seen Entey say anything nice about her or mention her without some kind of snide comment. and makes the comment about "no heels" which Mariah is known for always wearing sky high heals. I hope it is revealed that's it her. I know for a fact she does a lot of charity work, but people never seem to focus on all the good shes done/does for others throughout her career.
ReplyDeleteAnother clue, it mentions giving to kids. Mariah is publicly very involved with many children's charities (Her camp for under privileged inner city kids, make a wish, save the music, etc.)
ReplyDeleteThis screams MARIAH. Bless her heart! Love love love Nick and her.
ReplyDeleteMariah is the one that wore heels on the treadmill in her episode of Cribs.
ReplyDeleteIn what world is Posh A++?
I read this TOTALLY as Mariah Carey, glad you guys think the same :)
ReplyDeleteI <3 Mimi
Madonna
ReplyDeleteI'm with poster way above, if this is Mariah, I will buy her latest CD as well. Love her!
ReplyDeleteI read this as Mimi because Enty does tease her a lot for being a diva.
ReplyDeleteAlso, I remember reading an article awhile back (maybe it was by the journalist mentioned above who was pregnant?) and Mimi had struck up a friendship with a struggling journalist. She's drop by and bring dinner, invite her out and, once the writer started having kids, sent gifts for them. It sounded like she was pretty considerate though given to outlandish acts of kindness.
Mimi all the way! As much of a diva as she is, she always seems nice under the surface. I hope this is her because I have always loved her.
ReplyDeleteAngelina? Come on! She brings photographers with her if she hands a dollar bill to a homeless person!
