Today's Blind Items - Home Wrecked After Being Home Wrecked
Although this does not involve huge A listers, it does involve some people who you will know. The thing that makes it interesting is the whole this is what happened to me and I hated it but I am going to do the same thing to someone. This celebrity was probably B- at her peak. She is in the industry but made her fame by being the girlfriend of an A lister. They started off when he was just getting his start and she kept doing more and more for him and getting him parts and then when he became an A lister, he cheated on her and dumped her. She was crushed. Devastated. A few short weeks after she was dumped she ran into this gorgeous C+ list actor who is more known for his body than his body of work despite him being in several very big movies. Our actor had just moved in with an actress/celebrity who had guided his career and altered her own to make sure the the actor could get to where he wanted to be. Well, all of that fell right out the window when he met the dumped celebrity. Two weeks after meeting they were having sex in the same bed he shared with his girlfriend and two weeks after that she had him moved out and into a place she talked him into buying.
Awhatta hey? No comprendo
ReplyDeleteB- female celebrity was dumped by her now A list boyfriend after basically building his career (presumably he left her for another woman). Then she met the C+ (hot but not talented) actor who was already in a relationship. C+'s girlfriend helped build his career (I think). B- female celebrity convinced C+ actor to cheat with her and eventually broke up his relationship. Essentially doing to another woman what had been done to her.
DeleteReally @auntliddy!
ReplyDeleteHow could the less famous first gf be getting her bf parts? So cornfused.
I don't understand the first part of this. Who did what to whom?
ReplyDeleteI have no guess
Sadie Frost with Jude Law for the first pair?
ReplyDelete"C+ list actor who is more known for his body than his body of work despite him being in several very big movies."
ReplyDeleteSounds like Josh Duhmel.If that's however his name is spelled. Ah dunno.
Well. I could see Channing Tatum and Jenna Dewan as the second couple. Except they're married and having a baby. So. I got nothing.
ReplyDeleteSo this woman who had been cheated on and dumped after helping her partner with his career had no qualms about doing the same thing to another woman.
ReplyDeleteOh, I understand He's fake-quoting the B-list celebrity.
ReplyDelete"The thing that makes it interesting is the whole this-is- what-happened-to-me-and-I-hated-it but-I-am-going-to-do-the-same-thing-to-someone".
I have no idea who this is.
Fake quoting, u got it! That was so terribly confusing... a little punctuation can go a long way when writing these blinds... tip for the version of enty who has the writing skills of a 4th grader. There have got to be at least 3 of you based on writing style.
Deletethe moral of the story is never put anyone's career ahead of your own. You will live to regret it unless you have a signed contract that says you get 20% of their income as their manager.
ReplyDeleteBe smart kids.
Wait this is four different people and two different story?
ReplyDeleteSomeone who dated Brad or Johnny Depp?
ReplyDeleteBrad would work if it was Juliette Lewis but man, that was a long time ago.
ReplyDeleteYeah, the first time I read this through, I thought it was going to be a couple decades old. After reading your guesses, though, I'm trying to think of slightly more recent people.
ReplyDeleteI like the Sadie/Jude guess.
ReplyDeleteWhat about Zoe Kravitz, Michael Fassbender and Penn Badgley
ReplyDeleteYou know those posters at the mall that are supposed to be 3d or if you look long enough, you'll see the hidden picture? Never got those either.
ReplyDeleteMe either
DeleteI'm sorry but no lawyer writes like this.
ReplyDeleteOkay, two stories in this blind, both about separate couples:
ReplyDelete1. Formerly B- female celebrity is dating almost A lister actor. Very supportive and helps propel him to the A list. The A list actor dumps her and she's crushed.
2. Dumped B- female celebrity meets gorgeous/well built C+ actor who's more known for his body than his acting. C+ actor had just shacked up with actress/celebrity who had supported/propelled his career. C+ actor dumps actress/celebrity and hooks up with B- female.
I'm thinking the C+ actor is someone from a franchise who's buff and pretty, but I can't get past that - Kellan Lutz, maybe? I dunno.
Now People are question enty writing. IT HAS BEGUN.
ReplyDeleteJen/brad Jen/Justin
ReplyDeleteJen is WAY above B and didn't get famous for being "the girlfriend of..."
Delete@BobNYC - I'm not an Enty defender (I could not care less one way or the other), but...
ReplyDeleteI did clerical temp work in college, including a law firm. One of my jobs at the law firm was to transcribe notes and interviews, create business letters, etc. and yes, a lawyer absolutely could write like this. And even worse.
what about joe manganiello as the guy known more for his body than his body of work?? he was dating some actress/dancer girl for YEARS, then when he started to get really famous, dumped her...no idea who the other people would be though!
ReplyDeleteAdrienne-you beat me to it! Was thinking Joe for the C+ list actor.
ReplyDeleteWhat about one of the Hemsworth boys for the now almost A list actors in the first part?
Or Denise Richards for the actress in the first part?
I have worked with accountants, lawyers, tax lawyers in the City. Let me tell you they write like toddlers and some barely have a grasp on grammar. But they can spout out tax laws like a mofo.
ReplyDeleteIf it wasn't for the paralegals and support staff fixing their writing it would be a horror show in the court system.
I read this as Demi Moore, Bruce Willis and Joe Manganiello. There were rumors about Demi and Joe.
ReplyDeleteDemi got married to Bruce ('87) before he got his fame with Die Hard('88).
Just the 'she was famous for being with the A lister' doesn't fit I think. Was Demi popular on her own, for example with Ghost? Or did she get the part for dating Willis?
Or it could be Ashton, it would fit the timeline better; when Ashton was up and coming Demi was a D-lister and got her fame back because of being with him.
*My timeline may be messed up, this was before my time*
So either Demi/Willis/Joe, or Demi/Ashton/Joe (last one seems more fitting).
@ShitYouCant - A for effort, but, be happy to know that you are indeed too young :-). Yay - you should be happy! Demi Moore was the shit in the 80's - Miss Brat Pack herself. She was flying high as an A before Ghost came along.
Delete@Timebob - I like it that's good advice : )
ReplyDeleteHuh? I cant make heads or tails out of this one.
ReplyDeleteMr Wolf Translation -
ReplyDeleteThis blind does not involve huge A Listers, but it's interesting nonetheless. Why? Because it's a story of someone who was done wrong, but then turned around and did wrong to another.
So this celebrity is B-. She is involved in the entertainment industry. She met an actor who was just starting out and they became a couple. Soon, the actor was rising in fame and became an A lister. In fact, I'd say the lady was best known as his girlfriend, rather than any accomplishment of her own. She did a lot for him, including helping him get parts.
However, once her boyfriend solidified his place on the A list, he cheated on her and dumped her. It left her devastating.
The story gets interesting here. Weeks after she was dumped by her A list boyfriend, she ran into a C+ list actor who has a great body, but a less impressive body of work. He has had roles in some big name movies. The C+ list actor was living with an actress who had guided his career and helped him get parts, much as our B- list celebrity had done for her A list boyfriend.
Despite how devastated she was at being cheated on and dumped, the B- list celebrity female had no problem seducing the C+ list actor away from his girl.
Within two weeks, she was having sex with the C+ list actor. Within a month, she had convinced him to buy a new place and move in with her, abandoning his original girlfriend.
Still a messy blind, best I could do.
Josh Duhamel sounds like an interesting guess - C+ list, known for his looks, an was in Transformers.
ReplyDeleteBut I think he's been with Fergie forever?
What about Tyrese? Also in Transformers, also known for his looks. He seems like the type to move in with awoman after four weeks.
Chris Hemsworth was one I was mulling over too, but I kind of get the sense that this happened longer ago, like the B- peak has been gone for some time.

ReplyDeleteI was thinking Jennie Garth but her ex wasn't A list. Maybe someone who dated George Clooney when he was up and coming? I have re read this 4 times (the first 2 just to understand it) and I can't get an idea if this is recent or old. Makes a big difference when guessing.
ReplyDelete@Frufra Just want to add that Bruce Willis was also the shit on Moonlighting before Die Hard, and they were THE power couple with all that Planet Hollywood stuff in the '90s.
ReplyDelete@Topper - yup. I was a big deal - like Jolie/Pitt big deal - when those two got married. And of course, she was the original pregnant naked lady on a magazine cover. That was huge, too! And her belly was pretty big as well :-p.
Delete"It" was a big deal.
DeleteMr wolf is amazing!
ReplyDelete@Frufra and Topper: thanks for clearing that up xD
ReplyDeleteDemi guess is off the table now :)
Now People are question enty writing. IT HAS BEGUN.
ReplyDelete@ Dragon - are you referring to People Magazine?
@Mango. Um no Mortal Kombat lol
DeleteSounds like Jen, but the As and Bs etc. are off. Got nothing.
ReplyDeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDeleteJennifer Anniston/Brad Pitt /Justin Theroux
ReplyDeleteWhat about Arnold S/Brigitte Nielsen/Sylvester Stallone
ReplyDeleteThis sounds like Lenny Kravitz/Lisa Bonet and Jason Momoa/Simmone Jade Mckinnon, which became Lisa Bonet/Jason Momoa.
ReplyDeleteExcept that 1) I don't think Lenny did any acting back then, and 2) this isn't a blind.
^^"Does NOT involve huge A listers."^^^
ReplyDeleteC'mon people, is a little reading comprehension too much to ask?
I usually check in on CDAN after I get off work. Sometimes after a long shift I'll see a blind like this one and just think -oh screw this; as I simply do not have the brain power left to try to unravel whatever the hell Enty is trying say some days. I laughed and laughed at TimeBob's spouting tax law like a mofo comment though. Too funny.
ReplyDeleteI don't really know or care if Enty is a huge LA lawyer or not, but I do know that a lawyer could absolutely write like that. Mercy me.
ReplyDeleteIt seems the B- girl is not an actress, or not primarily one anyway. Enty calls her a celebrity while he calls the other three actors. So maybe it's a Carmen Electra-type, though she personally doesn't fit. Or a reality show person/judge.
ReplyDelete@g.strathmore - Lisa Bonet and Lenny were the first ones I thought of too, except for Lenny wasn't acting then.
ReplyDeleteI think black cat got it! What about Arnold S/Brigitte Nielsen/Sylvester Stallone
ReplyDeleteThis is Elsa Pataky as the gf, Adrien Brody as the A-List actor who dumped her and Chris Hemsworth as beefcake C-lister she took up with afterward. The only bit that confuses is "they started off when he was just getting his start and she kept doing more and more for him and getting him parts" - I thought she took up with Brody after he won his Oscar; not sure how she would have helped him get parts.
ReplyDeleteBut most of the clues fit them. Isobel Lucas would be the C-Lister's former celeb/actress gf who got dumped for Pataky.
@pookie I was going to mention them but he said is not Alisters. isn't chris and A-list?
DeleteI like Pookie Two's guess. Adrien Brody could have been considered an A lister at one point in his career. I would think Chris Hemsworth is higher than C+ but it's close enough.
ReplyDelete@timebob - Thank you. I was also going to say that lawyers DO write like this, and thank dog for paralegals.
ReplyDeleteAs for the blind, no bloody idea, but the SO must have been acting as the A-lister's "manager". Like timebob said, get 20% in writing, at the very least.
@dragon I agree with you and g.strath about Hemsworth being above C-list. I'd put him at least at a solid B going on B+ and rising if not higher. But the ratings system here is always going to be controversial and in flux. Maybe Enty meant C+ list in terms of acting talent only.
ReplyDeleteThe C lister could be known for his body for being larger than unusual, not Jonah Hill but someone like that
ReplyDeletethis is the most weird blind. who cares about these people? if they are well known enough to guess then i don't care to read about them.
ReplyDeleteElsa Pataky
ReplyDeleteAdrien Brody
Chris Hemswoth
Girlfriend? I got nothin!
