Blind Item #7

This former top 5 pro female tennis player is dying of AIDS. I think a lot of people could see this coming despite how quiet she has tried to keep it.

  3. I don't know if she is top 5, but thought of Jennifer capriati (sp). Lots of substance abuse..

    ReplyDelete
  4. Jennifer Capriati has had a drug history and seems pretty messed up. Not sure if intravenous drugs but I think she was probably top 5 at some point. Haven't heard much about her the last few years.

      THIS really is fucked & should be private. We shouldn't even speculate and reinforce this kind of post. Shame Enty. Shame.

  7. i don't like the tone of this...makes it seem like there is something shameful about being HIV+

    1. @Tom Stockdale--How is gossiping about HIV (and making it seem shameful on here) any different than gossiping about other STDs, which people do on this site CONSTANTLY. Men are called dogs and man whores and pigs and women are sluts and cum dumpsters when blinds are about the herp or whatever else and it's perfectly okay, yet HIV is off limits? I guess I don't see the distinction.

  10. Throwing out Chris Everett for something different.

  11. Jennifer Capriati has to go to court in December for allegedly stalking and assaulting her ex-boyfriend. That doesn't seem like a person trying to keep out of the spotlight...

    1. @gypsygirl - I assume you meant Capriati never had top 5 status - wrong - she is a former #1 and in top 5 for months. Don't know if it is her and Hingis might be a good guess but get facts correct if going to cite them- all you have to do is google them.

      Assumption correct but what Ibwas "citing"was top 5 players of all time-one of which is Hingis for her 5 grand slam wins....JC kinda small time in.comparison..but my bad i imagine...i was thinking bigger and contrary to DM visits and overuse of google....i am able to do so from recognizant/ective memory/knowledge:)

    Enty has been increasing his number of HIV blinds lately. Must have received a great increase of clicks after that Britney reveal.

  17. HIV and AIDS are different illnesses. The people who are living for long periods of time have HIV. The goal is to never let HIV manifest into AIDS. The meds help stave that off. AIDS is much more difficult to combat and life expectancy is much shorter.

      EXACTLY Lost Soul. I almost posted that, but people don't seem to really care. The point is to try to avoid HIV. And spreading it. Hence my nagging about safe sex.

  19. wtf @gypsy girl, English, please?!?!

    Yeah, this is private and should remain so. Unless they're out infecting people.

    ReplyDelete
  20. Oh yeah, I have no idea who this is. I would it expect it to be either someone older or someone who engaged in high risk behavior, ie, needles, lots of high risk sex.

  23. Mary Pierce. Her ex is Roberto Alomar and he has aids and gave it to her a long time ago.

  24. @gyspygirl - jcap was ranked #1, has 3 grand slam titles and a gold medal. Yes, she had substance abuse issues cleaned up and put together a nice career for herself.

  25. #1 - Magic Johnson does not have AIDS - he is HIV+.

    #2 - If you don't know the difference between HIV and AIDS, please go utilize the google. We all have the ability cure our own ignorance.

    #3 - Enty's obviously had his soul sucked out by a Canadian Demon Hound.

  26. "its not real...this should be private...I call bs...google your shit you freaking scum of the earth who should be put to death for not writing the facts as I SEE THEM (although i then get to act high and mighty when I correct you, so, yeah that's awesome)". you people need to chill. this is a gossip site. it posts private information (none of our business) everyday of the year. you think the person this blind is talking about cares if YOU know? really?

  28. gypsygirl - if looking top 5 all-time the list would probably be: Martina N., Steffi, Chris Evert, Margaret Court, Serena? I don't think Martina H. would make the top 10 ;)

  29. @Me - not really sure what you said there but I do agree that I get sick of the 'we shouldn't be talking about this' 'it's private' comments we get. It is a gossip site.

    1. @ME - upon further interpretation of your drivel above - fuck you!! Don't throw out 'facts' when commenting unless they are accurate.

  30. I had to reread @ME's comments several times. I don't see where they are "throwing out any facts" and don't really see where the "fuck you" is warranted. That's a bit much.

    It must be a full moon because everyone is on edge today LOL.

  37. Anyone can contract HIV for a couple of reasons, usually unsafe sex or needle sharing, and the sex of the person has nothing to do with contracting it.

    Also, HIV is a condition, not a full blown syndrome - that's AIDS, which is not a disease but a syndrome through which people get life-threatening diseases. No one dies of AIDS but rather the diseases one gets due to AIDS' total suppression of the immune system.

    HIV or AIDS are no more "shameful" than any other conditions, syndromes or diseases (diabetes, cancer, COPD, herpes, etc.). Tom Hanks has type-2 diabetes = no big deal. Yet if he had HIV = OMG, horrible person! This is stupid and bigoted in the extreme.

    Sheesh. Chill the fuck out. What's with everyone? We're all allowed our own perspectives, and to express them and should just take a deep breath and calm the fuck down....'breathe in through the nose - hold..... Slowly release from the mouth.
    Fluffy kittens.

  40. Mary Pierce also looks way older than her years (38) and not exactly healthy. Capriati looks just fine.

    ReplyDelete
  41. I feel terrible for whoever it is.

    I've been a tennis watcher for 25 years, didn't know Mary's husband had it. So so sad.

    Serena had something else, I think a clot in her lungs? She's fine now, and winning almost every match she's in. Vanessa has Sordgrens, not her.

    ReplyDelete
  42. Just checked, Monica Seles is doing great, phew. I loved her, and she's got a great attitude about how her career was destroyed.

    ReplyDelete
  43. And oops meant Venus not Vanessa above!

    ReplyDelete
  44. @msgirl, not Mary Pierce's hubby. Her former fiancé Roberto Alomar is rumored to have AIDS (he's been sued twice for exposing former partners to HIV).

    Do you also play? I love the sport.

    ReplyDelete
  45. I used to just a little but now I've got Multiple Sclerosis. I totally sucked, but it sure does give perspective on how the pros get those impossible shots and make it seem easy1 :)

    ReplyDelete
  46. Ahh, sorry to hear msgirl. My aunt has MS too. Hope you are able to live well! And I hope your symptoms are mild.

    It amazes me watching pros get those shots off and also run the court! I'm mediocre at best, but I do love playing.

    ReplyDelete
  47. Mary Pierce was recently featured in a French news report on tv about how she's gone uber religious & now lives in some kind of religious community in Mauritious, full on evangelical style. She looked fine & happy.

    Jennifer Capriati has had more problems & issues over the years that I think could sadly fit this. Hopefully it's no-one & this is just a made up blind.

  48. If, indeed, it is Capriati, I hope Matthew Perry practiced safe sex with her.

  51. Very sad for whoever it is. I saw some pictures of Gabriela Sabatini recently, and she wasn't looking very good. Capriati wouldn't come as much of a surprise.

  52. I heard back in June that Monica Seles was very sick. But she also admitted to bulimia, so not sure. But I have it from a reliable source that she is indeed, not doing well.

  56. Rene Richards for the win

  57. The blind doesn't say the person is a top 5 of all times, just a former top 5 player, plain and simple.

    And I think people are upset mainly because of the sensationalism of saying the person is dying of AIDS when in fact they may be just HIV+. Because I can't imagine anyone with that type of money and access to the best medical treatment unable to maintain their health if that's what they in fact wanted to do, stay alive!
