Blind Item #5
This former A list mostly movie actress is raising lots of money for a cause that is important to her. She needs millions and so far all of the calls she has made have been to the women who she slept with to get early movie roles. You know, before she also got a husband and famous.
Tippi Hedren.
ReplyDeleteI spelled that wrong...
no idea. really.
Hendren is really into animal rights. I have no idea who the other woman would be.
ReplyDeleteSaint Angie Jolie
ReplyDeleteAngie makes her own money, and is not 'former' A-list, ffs.
ReplyDeleteCould also be Brigitte Bardot, right? also a charity-only gal.
ReplyDeleteOr did BB pass away?
She's still alive.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the spelling, Puggle, It's surely someone younger--I just want to imagine some HOT 50's/60's pin-up gals gettin' it on, for just one blind.
ReplyDeleteSomeone on Celebrity Apprentice?
ReplyDeleteI love old Hollywood blinds, and was secretly hoping you were on to something, Libby!
ReplyDeleteThis can't be from that long ago, not Bardot or Hedren era, since women weren't in roles of power in old hollywood. Former A List..... lots of money for a cause...... I got nothin...
ReplyDeleteCatherine Zeta Jones...I'm not really sure, but the cause could be cancer.
ReplyDeleteSharon Stone
ReplyDeleteSusan Sarandon
CJZ
Jamie Lee Curtis
Speilberg's wife - can't remember the name
Rita Wilson
Speilberg married Kate Capshaw and I'd never consider her A.
ReplyDeleteWhy am I thinking producer for the other woman?
Libby, why do you feel you have to make a rude comment on my guess? FFS, we are all allowed our opinions, RIGHT???
ReplyDeleteAgree! That was pretty nasty.
DeleteAgree completely and said so (and a lot more) below.

Delete@jaariel, I agree, that sounded pretty rude, but Libby must be feeling cranky today, she's usually nice in the comments. :-)
ReplyDeleteThanks figgy :)
ReplyDeleteBesides, millionaires still raise money for pet causes. That's how they STAY rich; they don't put themselves into debt, they call on other rich ppl to help finance their projects.
@jaariel, it could be that you arent one of the common posters here, i think the locals call us newcomers and/or ppl who dont post much "trolls"- whatever that means..but by all means post away! Its good for people to have variety! :-)
DeletePs- whats ffs? And what is a "troll"? I heard it used the other day when i told someone to Eat A Dick
Deletehahaha

DeleteActually Angie's not making the money she used too...
ReplyDeleteWould Melanie Griffith even be considered former A list? She started sleeping around very young.
ReplyDeleteTippi Hedren, alas, never made it to A list. But Doris Day? Que sera sera....
ReplyDeleteSharon Stone raises money for AmFar.
ReplyDeleteMy very first thought was CZJ.
ReplyDeleteWhats ffs?
ReplyDeleteWhats a "troll"?
@rosie, FFS=for fucks sake
DeleteA troll would be someone who posts only to annoy.
I don't think you're a troll, just people sometimes get very passionate about their opinions and favorite celebrities ;)
Anne Heche was the first person I thought of, but since the blind said 'women', and her wiki page says Ellen was the only woman she ever dated, probably not her.
ReplyDeleteUnless wikipedia is not completely accurate, but that couldn't be possible, right? :)
ffs = for f**ks sake
ReplyDeletetrolls = people who pop up in message boards and comment just to stir up trouble.
***insert "the more you know" shooting star graphic here***
@Rosie - FFS stands for "for f*'s sake" and a troll is one of those people who comes into a thread and makes some kind of a*hole comment (usually rude, nasty, racist, or something like that). We have a couple of regular trolls who drop in and crap all over threads with their hate.
ReplyDeleteThere have been some people lately who troll, get called on it, then go and create a new account and start trolling again, and people get suspicious. I hope no one ever feels unwelcome... I think joining a community is always a little daunting (I lurked for almost a year before jumping into the pool).
I don't know if I qualify as a regular or a usual or whatever, but I know there are some who've been around since the blog started!
Anyway - happy RDJ Day! :b
Oh I see..well thanku for the explanation! i understand-ppl must be pretty unhappyto jump in and be nasty to others

DeleteAli McGraw. Supporter of PETA, won an Oscar, then just disappeared...
ReplyDelete@CJ. Yes, but didn't Ali McGraw (we had a cat named after her when I was a kid,) get that part from her husband? And then fall out of favor for cheating on him with Ryan "Dirtbag" O'Neal?
ReplyDeleteThat is an awesome name for a cat. :)
DeleteI forgot all about RFO. Darn. Back to the drawing board!
We did to think about which women back in the day had the clout (no pun intended) to offer roles in exchange for sex and see which women were in the films. How may female directors/producers are there?
ReplyDeleteIzzie....love your Avi...drool.
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday RDJ xo
@ jaariel - that was not like libby at all, honestly.
ReplyDeleteSherry Lansing for the powerful lady friend. Still going through this list for the other lady.

Okay, how about this?
ReplyDeleteGeena Davis, has her own foundation and has given a whack of money to others.
was in Tootsie in 1982 - one of the writers was Elaine May.
was in Earth Girls are Easy in 1988 - one of the writers was Julie Brown.
was in The Accidental Tourist in 1988 as well - written by Anne Tyler.
was in Thelma & Louise in 1991 - written by Callie Khouri.
Sorry I was not here earlier to clarify. i had to leave the house, and just got back to this thread.
ReplyDeleteThank you for those who 'know' me, for defending my tone. I MEANT it like 'for heaven's sake', and I knew i was leaving soon and the ffs was a faster way to type it.
From the wording of the blind, it is CLEARLY NOT Angelina, and such a lazy guess for any charity blind, plus the 'Saint Angie' snark....I was throwing a lid on the 'Affleck of charity blinds'-guess' before it got out of control..For the love of Pete, I didn't even realize there WAS a profanity in there.
Heavens to Betsy, I found that guess to be very bad!!!
I was lazy in my phrasing while complaining about a lazy guess, and I'm sorry I wasn't here to clarify that.
Again--Thanks to everyone who defended me, because yes, I generally don't use even an ABBREVIATION of a profanity. I'm sorry for MY laziness.

Mango: Your intent may be so very kind, but it has made me uncomfortable from the beginning; please stop.
When I feel like being chatting, I do this. Okay?
It's so not you, it is SO me, I am not social.
Talk to me here if you see me okay? Thanks.
@jaariel There are a few AngieJo fans on this board and they'll cut a b*tch if anyone disparages her.
ReplyDeleteI like CJ's well thought out and researched guess. Geena seems free spirited.
Naw, hothot. just laziness and I was in a hurry, as I said.
ReplyDeletePROMISE!
Probably won't be back, I'm busy.
Xox, everybody.

ReplyDeleteI like the CZJ guess but Geena Davis is intriguing. Also, the 'cause' could be something personal, like funding a drug habit. Enty doesn't specify that it's an actual cause for something noble etc, just that it's important to her...
ReplyDeleteI love Geena Davis. She keeps getting more beautiful. Much like Sigourney.
There are far to many Alist philanthropists to figure this out. The biggest hint was that marrying somone helped her out with her fame.
ReplyDeleteAm I the only one who read this blind as blackmail? I don't see mention of charity, just a cause, which could mean anything from charity, to "I need more drugs". If it was a legit charity, former A would be calling more than one person right? But by only calling 1 person of the same gender makes it sound like blackmail.
ReplyDelete@ hothotheat... aww shucks. :) I want to be part of dragon's CDAN Law & Order Vice Squad.
ReplyDeleteI was thinking Angie, too, and that the "former A list" was just planted to veil the blind item a little. Just because she makes plenty of her own money doesn't mean she wants to spend it all on one charity. It costs a boatload of cash to bribe enough people to get a school built for girls in Afghanistan!! If it truly is a "former" A lister, then my vote is for Sharon Stone.
ReplyDeleteNot sure who this is, but I don't think it's Geena. As much as I like her I don't think she is A list; she's had several husbands, including early in her career. And her filmography doesn't really fit.
ReplyDeleteI don't know if Jada Pinkett Smith is former A list but she was in the news today and looks like she has a charity
ReplyDeletehttp://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/jada-pinkett-smith
Tea leoni UNICEF
ReplyDeleteWhat what about Julian Moore? She is rumored to like the ladies right? I did zero research on this guess BTW
ReplyDeleteyeah, i read this as a bit of blackmail too..
ReplyDeleteHey there is another L in the thread... i did not know we could have the same nick several times..
ReplyDeleteHi L double!
Ashley Judd raising money for political campaigns in her home state.
ReplyDeleteLindsay Lohan, raising enough cash to live in a country that doesn't extradite to rehab centers.
ReplyDeleteLaziness? Give me a break. You were that rude to someone because you found their guess on a blog meant purely for entertainment to be "lazy?" I didnt realize such heavy work ethics were required on this site. I am a long time lurker and I had to post in @jaariel's defense. Libby, your response was even more offensive than your original post. And I hardly think "Saint Angie" is so snarky it deserves your rudeness. At least be honest that you must be a die-hard Angie fan & or something. And maybe be a little less snarky yourself to
ReplyDeletepeople who have every bit as much right to post their
opinions as you do. Long time poster or not, you don't own this board and if you are as "nice" as the people who know you suggest, you'd give @jaariel a sincere apology instead of being so rude even after the people who "know" you indicated you were unkind to begin with. People on this site always seem incredibly nice. Today you have been the exception.
She's a bitch! Think she owns the comments. Thanks enty this, and thanks enty that , like she kniws the fucking guy.
DeleteI'm sure Enty appreciates her chasing off new readers/posters about as much as I appreciate having to look at her armpit every time I visit this site. Classy.
DeleteI stopped posting because of her jaded and heavy handed criticisms on me or anyone else. The others are not like her, which is why I still lurk and enjoy the site. Her secondary comment was strident and insulting at best. Big ups for having the new girls back. Nobody likes a bully.

DeleteAshley Judd? Furst time poster here, hi everybody!
ReplyDelete@DalesWife.....good luck getting any love here. I tried a few times to join in. You have to be one of the old time posters or kiss ass and agree with whatever the most popular opinion is. Been a looong time lurker and tried to join in but you gotta be apart of the "in" crowd.
ReplyDeleteBetty White?
ReplyDelete@Gayeld Interestingly enough, Ali McGraw owned the rights to "Love Story"--not her husband, Robert Evans. He made an auto-biographical documentary called, "The Kid Stays in the Picture" which covers the whole story. It's a pretty fascinating film, and I'd highly recommend it.
ReplyDeleteGoodness, I haven't been able to look at the comments much lately (and rarely comment to begin with) but where did all these delicate little blossoms come from who can't even handle a "for fuck's sake" thrown their way after a poor BI guess?
ReplyDeleteFirst time on the internet, kids? This place is a fucking kiddie pool compared to a lot of places, so maybe you should count your blessings.
My response is below.
DeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDeleteActually, it was her incredibly sarcastic response/explanation & insulting bs apology left AFTER @jaariel called her out that I found to be so nonsensical & offensive. Plus it was just so disingenuous. You're an Angie fanatic--own it instead of all this ridiculous nonsense about laziness. Give me a freaking break. But obviously even her friends on here thought her original post was rude in and of itself. She was rude and we told her...well, because we aren't "lazy." Deal with it, ffs.
ReplyDeleteHonestly Amanda, your harshness now has far outweighed anything else I've read in this thread. Sometimes a quick response can unintentionally come across as rude or hostile. That's the reality of the internet. And personally, I didn't think Libby's subsequent explanation was at all as offensive as you are making it out to be. And even if it was, is there any reason to resort to personal attacks? We can all be adults here and not try to out-bitch each other, no?
ReplyDeleteAnd I say this as someone who has been primarily a lurker for the last 6 or 7 years. I almost never comment and have no real stake in this.
woah woah? we can't cuss now?
ReplyDeleteffs is the easiest "gimme a break" response. and yes you are allowed to say it. whenever there is a bitchy female blind w sexual overtones Angelina is always the first guess like clockwork. hell I wish everything was that dependable in my life.
the whole point is to guess and debate guesses. so if someone disagrees then whatever be an adult and stop mommyblogging the threads. jeezus.
oh and I guess Affleck since he is *alwats* the answer.
I'm no troll but after reading comments, I had to pipe up. Why do people take commenting on a website so personal???
ReplyDeleteIf people disagree then they disagree! It's as if some of these long time posters have never disagreed w anyone before and take it out on "newbies" to the site. Who gives a flying F who has posted longer than others.
No offense, but maybe it's age? On other sites, it seems to me it's the older crowd that get butt hurt over disagreements on blogs(I'm 26, so I'm talking 40s+ perhaps). Relaxxxx! It's suppose to be fun and entertaining, not high school politics. Who wants to relive that online??
Maybe nobody will come back to this thread now, but in the paper today it suggests Angie & Madge have kissed and made for charity.....
ReplyDeleteI'm a fucking lurker but I really like that fucking Geena Davis guess so I'm speaking the fuck up.
