Blind Item #5
This former A list comedic television actor and now a B list celebrity was overheard telling one of his friends that he had spent nearly $500K on hookers last year. He says that when he is on the road he likes to have some fun and since he is on the road a lot, he has fun a lot.
Geez....that's a chunk of change....
ReplyDeleteRe-investing into the community.Nothing wrong with that.
DeleteDoes Seinfeld still tour?
ReplyDeleteYes I saw him in ft lauderdale last month! He required the venue stop serving alcohol at 8pm (he went on at 9) and it was very disappointing!
DeleteWhat's with the alcohol thing? Is that a normal thing? To stop hecklers?
Delete@prolixe seinfeld is still A list, i think
DeleteSmart man. As the wife of a comedian, let me tell you,, there's nothing worse than a bunch of drunk a-holes who have come to a comedy show to scream at the comic performing.
DeleteRay Romano still works all the time, right?
ReplyDeleteI wish this guy were A-list, so i could guess LENO.
ReplyDelete*thunderclap*
George Lopez?
ReplyDeleteDrew Carey?
ReplyDeleteTim Allen?
ReplyDeleteSounds like George Lopez - enty has already told us he has a fondness for hookers.
ReplyDeleteYes. I freaking co-sign on this. He has cheated on his wife wih a hooker (s). Plus he is on tour.
DeleteDave Chapelle?
ReplyDeleteKevin James? I really hope this isn't him!
ReplyDeleteOtherwise, I'm on board with the Seinfeld guess.
sheeeennnn! i know it's not him but...
ReplyDeleteOT: Ron Jeremy is in critical condition w/a heart aneurysm per TMZ
ReplyDelete@libby, Ray Romano just spent a whole season on Parenthood--I think he keeps busy.
ReplyDelete@Amber...wow. Maybe too much sex IS a bad thing.
ReplyDeleteMeh, too easy.
Seinfeld is B list? If he's B list everyone else mentioned is a C.
ReplyDeleteDrew Carey is most likely the one. He's admitted on Howard Stern, years ago, that he's a little bit on the twisted side sexually. So this just makes sense.
ReplyDelete@lotta NoOOOOOOOO not dave chapelle =[ Love him and his Asian wife.
ReplyDelete@dragon, you'll be happy to know he has no tour dates so therefore this can't be him. :)
ReplyDelete=]
ReplyDeletewhat about the two other guys from Seinfeld?
A standard element of the hooker situation is paying for the drugs, and escort agencies do a huge business in cocaine and ecstasy and Viagra and other pharmaceuticals. Lots of drug addicts call an escort agency as soon as they are in a hotel room, mostly for the hookup. That's where the $500,000 went, I'll wager.
ReplyDelete*karen*, thank you about the Romano info. I just knew he was VERY rich---I do not watch network shows, so I didn't know Ray had gotten another job. Thanks.
ReplyDeletedavid spade!
ReplyDeleteLibby he was really good in "Parenthood" quite the departure from what we think of him.
ReplyDeleteBarton, I had no idea about that.
what former A list comedic actor is in DM today?
ReplyDeleteDrew Carey is famous for getting hookers.
ReplyDeleteits not seinfeld. not in his make up. also, I would argue that he is still A list. its someone w/an addict personality. seinfeld doesn't have an addict personality.
ReplyDeleteRay Romano was very good in Men of a Certain Age also.
ReplyDeleteLoved that show.
DeleteCarlos Mencia
ReplyDeleteSheesh, I can't believe I finally truly got one. This is Bob Saget. He made a ton of money from Full House and now does a lot of stand up. He as even alluded as much that this is his preference.
ReplyDeleteNow I remember, Saget said this on an episode of Entourage and listen to him talk in The Arisotcrats. This is definitely him and he is as raunchy as they come.
ReplyDeleteI was thinking Sheen but who knows.
ReplyDeleteI guessing George Lopez but Saget is definitely a possibility.
ReplyDeleteHell, they all are, but since the sitecom and Lopez Tonight are relatively recent I'm going with George.
And totally agree about the pharmaceuticals.
Oh, Saget. I grew up watching him play this sweet, wholesome dad on Full House & the guy who made us laugh at home movies of people falling down.
ReplyDeleteA couple of years ago, I heard a little bit of his stand-up and a little piece of my heart died.
What about Russell Brand? He is on tv (or has been) but not sure if I would could him as an actor on those shows, more a performer/presenter.. Thoughts?
ReplyDeleteDarrell Hammond.
ReplyDeleteDrew Carey. He loooves the strippers and the skanky wimmens. I still can't believe he's hosting Let's Make A Deal. He was horrible at first and is still only marginally better.
ReplyDeleteSaget is a good guess though I would hesitate to call him A list (c'mon, for Full House???). He was foul in The Aristocrats, just for the sake of being utterly, utterly gross. (I get that that's the point of The Aristocrats, but still...) I've never found him funny. It must irritate the fuck out of him that the Olsen twins are worth a billion dollars. Now THAT'S funny!
Saget is a good guess. Full House won quite a few awards. That would make him A list. He's touring now. Not my kind of funny.
ReplyDeleteDoes Saget really have that kind of money? That surprises me.
ReplyDeleteI don't doubt that he does, Agent**It.
ReplyDeleteimmediately thought Saget. Remember, he had Full House and America's Funniest Home Videos on in prime time at the same time. And all those residuals.
ReplyDeleteA couple of google searches say Bob Saget is worth close to $100 mil dollars.
