Today's Blind Items - Out Of Control
Because of his connections and willingness to do anything for money this former A list actor has probably got away with more crime than any other actor from Hollywood ever. Three or four years ago there was a reporter who was going to write a lengthy article/expose about the actor and some of his illegal exploits and ended up almost getting killed a week into his investigation. Three days later he was threatened again and finally gave up the project. It isn't like this actor is all that great but he has a reputation overseas for being great. Sex and drug trafficking are just the tip of the iceberg for this actor. The latest thing that is truly scary is that he has been flown in for some "raids" on camps and has killed people. They are not battles but more like slaughters and he jumped at the chance to participate.
I have to say that this fits in with the actor and his past. It also is something I know he has said he wanted to do at some point in his life. Three separate readers from Jordan have all heard the same basic story and have seen him in Amman several times over the past three months when these killings were supposed to have happened. Two of these sources have never been wrong about anything before and the third has also never been wrong but has a very limited track record. The guy is scary and it wouldn't shock me if he ends up dying in a very violent manner.
Steven Segal.
ReplyDelete@Laura You beat me to it :)
DeleteSorry love you Vip :)
DeleteI always liked him but this is horrifying. To kill another human being, to kill an animal, to kill anything that isn't directly threatening you is the act of a coward.

DeleteIf Steven segal was ever a list, I am going to jump off a tall building

ReplyDeleteI think its Jean Claude Van Damme because of the overseas Rep mention. I think the ponytailed douche is bigger here and in Thailand.
ReplyDeleteSegal is a "hunting" VIP in Russia and Romania
DeleteGet it, Laura! I was going with Gary Sinise but Segal makes much more sense.
ReplyDeleteJerry Lewis!
ReplyDeleteSometimes it amazes me what people wander the globe doing with apparent impunity. And then I feel stupid. But mostly scared. WTF, world?
ReplyDeleteNo no no not Van Damme, I suspect JCvD is just a pretty boy performer and Gary Sinise is too much of a documented good person and career actor.
ReplyDeleteThis has Steven Seagal written all over it.
@hunter I was kidding.
Deleteor however you spell it
ReplyDeleteDefinitely Steven Segal
ReplyDeleteSorry, got to disagree with the Segal guess.
ReplyDeleteHave you *seen* him lately?
If this were from 20+ years ago, I'd have been on board...but now?
Allow me to put it this way:
If you were going on a black ops mission, would *you* take an "Apocalypse Now" Marlon Brando along ?
Ha. Now if they placed someon right in front of him and held them down, he might drop the chicken drumstick long enough to slay them but I don't even see segal out of bed at this point.
DeleteSeems legit. http://inserbia.info/news/2013/10/steven-seagal-at-weapons-exhibition-in-moscow/
ReplyDeleteWasn't there already a very similar blind about Steven Segal? I'm getting a major case of deja vous...
ReplyDeleteYep. About him and Gaddafi.
DeleteI thought Segal immediately.
ReplyDeleteVan Damme isn't a pretty boy he was a kick boxer and famed martial artist before he acted. Hes also a Dick like Seagal.
ReplyDeleteI have a friend who was a world ranking martial arts expert. Even though he was from a poor country, he was paid to represent at tournaments all over the world. Van Damme is a joke world wide in that community cos he and his face growth only know enough moves to look good when choreographed on film.
DeleteThere have also been some Kindness reveals about Sinise and his work with vets, so def not him.
ReplyDeleteHad to ring in and remind everyone how amazing Sinise is. My mission in life.
Sinise, really? Come on.
ReplyDeleteTotally Van Damme or Seagal. Great guesses.
Everyone's getting butthurt over the Sinise guess. Fine. I'll change my guess to Michael J Fox. Dude has black ops written all over him.
ReplyDelete@Kristin stop being a troublemaker, its Monday and some people a) cant read very well b)don't know what a joke is.
ReplyDeleteShe was kidding!!
Thanks @sandy. I'll stop ;)
DeleteWithout a doubt.... Segal
ReplyDelete@Kristin, As a Gary Sinise fan, your comment made me laugh. DON'T STOP :)
ReplyDeleteThere are people who AREN'T Sinise fans?
DeleteYeah, def Steven, but disturbing re the instant consensus. That dude's seriously overdue a visit from the Karma fairy.
If you were going on a black ops mission, would *you* take an "Apocalypse Now" Marlon Brando along ?
ReplyDeleteYep. Have you even watched the Godfather?
@Bacon, then wouldn't you be taking the Godfather Brando along? Vastly different scenario.
ReplyDeleteVan Damme's about as a legit "famed martial artist" as Chuck Norris, or if you're well-versed in martial arts, as Kimbo Slice.
ReplyDeleteAgree! He's a joke.
DeleteSeagal was never an A lister. B at best IMO. But it makes sense though, him being a cop(deputy)as a cover for his illegal acts.
ReplyDeleteKristin, you made me laugh!
ReplyDeleteHow in the HELL did he get named the reincarnation of some minor Buddhist lama? And Wikipedia says he's an animal rights activist, too.
ReplyDeleteAnimals have the RIGHT to be killed @ Melanie.
DeleteYou got me there, Rach. Can't argue with that logic.
DeleteMelanie, as a vegan, I don't really think that!
DeleteJohn Travolta.
ReplyDeleteDon't be dissing Chuck Norris he stood down the entire Vietnamese Army by himself on a bridge!
ReplyDeleteIndeed V. But hey, you never know what you're getting when it comes to him. Horse head on your pillow, agent orange.
ReplyDeleteTomato tamatoe
I need to stop taking this cough medicine..
Van Damme was a dancer before hitting it big, not a "famed martial artist". Not him.
ReplyDeleteFor pure crazy, I'd throw out Tom Sizemore's name into the ring.
Bacon, I say go for Superman Brando. We could all use a little Jor-El for secret squirrel missions.
ReplyDeleteSeagal is a fat potato ,now he barely can't move: see his tv show
ReplyDeleteOh Kristin, okay okay I'm so sorry to take Sinise seriously, you really saved it with the Michael J. Fox upgrade. ;)
ReplyDeleteSegal may be a fat fatty but you don't have to be in shape to blow people away with a gun.
ReplyDeleteI love you for knowing Jor-El off the top of your head, V!
ReplyDeleteYou're right, that Marlon would kick some ASS
Thanks Bacon, <3 you too ;)
ReplyDeleteBrando Jor-El is the best, along with Hackman Lex Luthor, and Christopher Reeve Superman. It all works.
When I had glandular fever recently my hubby said I looked like Brando (my throat looked like it was giving birth to 2 oranges) and I asked if he meant Brando from The Wild One or from the Island of Dr Moreau. He said the latter. Boo!
ReplyDeleteI think Dr. Moreau Brando might be the winner....to quote Jesse Spano, "I'm so scared!"
ReplyDeleteAccording to you, Seagal has a reputation overseas for "being great"? Europe is overseas and he has a reputation for a terrible fat pseudo actor.
ReplyDeleteSome thing I don't understand in this BI. Says he has been in raids killing people: was it as a soldier/merc wiping out qaida maggots or poor people as in "Hard Target"?
Van Damne has a 18-1 record in full contact, according to wikipedia.
Hello mister ASCI penis buzzkill.
ReplyDeleteNever saw the Island of Dr, V. any good?
Bacon, I've only seen it once, while sick with the flu. It literally gave me bad nightmares/hallucinations (combo of dehydration, fever and Brando). I haven't been able to watch it again since. An epically bad, yet at the same time, very creepy film.
ReplyDeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDeleteI'll have to check it out. You know, what you described is how I felt after watching "The Strangers" (I'm not even a Liv Tyler fan, I don't care if she saved a hobbit), creepy movie. Stupid movie in hindsight but nightmare sort of movie.
ReplyDeleteBacon, agreed about the Strangers. Very unsettling.
ReplyDeleteHave you seen Wolf Creek? Probably more in the torture porn family, but also very creepy. I did not want to sleep after watching it.
V: head on a stick. Hostel, the human centipede and the hills have eyes remake are all flicks I wish I hadn't seen. Currently doing a bad horror film Fest w hubby and Hammer films are featuring heavily. Hate torture porn. Got Hellraiser ready to watch tonight.
DeleteYou might be on to something with Tom Sizemore. Especially since he blind mentions drugs.
ReplyDeleteI agree all signs point to Seagal, but that A rating really throws me off balance. He definitely was an A list action star back in the day, but now? Uh...no.
ReplyDeletePutin holds onto that Ponytail whilst he manloves Seagal.
ReplyDeleteWolf Creek? I'll check it out.
ReplyDeleteNaughty, Sly is in the pics today.
Rach and V - check out Behind the Mask. It's a documentary of a serial killer (fake, of course) tongue in cheek and very well done.
Bacon : I'm still working from home w a broken leg & unlimited downloads, so I will! Seriously, watch Wolf Creek. Based on real life Australian psycho backpacker killer. Head. On. A. Stick. That's all I'm sayin....
Delete^ I'd follow that up with some stump fucking from the Moghty Boosh if you need to get over it.
ReplyDeleteabob: bless you for the Mighty Boosh ref!
DeleteBacon, will check out Behind the Mask. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteRach - "head on a stick" still gives me chills. Hellraiser is always a goodie. Adding any Japanese Horror flicks into the mix?
We've done most of the Japanese horror : always much better than their Anerican remakes. Also, Scandinavian horror is RAD! Troll hunters, Dead Snow (nazi zombies) and Rare Exports (evil Santa)
DeleteYES! I was dating a Swede and got into the Scandinavian Horror. Great stuff.
DeleteGary Sinise eats babies, I have it on good authority! Don't you all know this site was EXPOSED as fake by the NY Post???? They've never been less than completely accurate about anything ever. So don't believe everything whichever Enty has a crush on Sinise tells you! Sinise=evil!
ReplyDeleteSegal. Abu Dhabi royals bought into the UFC. Segal has coached up some of their fave fighters in Spider Silva and Lyoto Machida. Between MMA connections and arms suppliers, could totally see Segal hoovering a couple rails and storming a village of democracy dreamers with some crowned princes and CEOs.
ReplyDeleteWho ever it was, remember, if everyone in the village gonna die, then murder wasn't the worst thing that went down, especially if there were chicks around.
I think that the most frightening thing about this blind is that Steven Segal was ever considered A list.
ReplyDeleteWhat about Vinnie Jones?
ReplyDeleteKnown to be violent, arrested multiple times. Was recently caught with his tongue all over a Russian fame-ho. His wife wasn't happy.
In his past he was known for soccer, did a lot of dirty tricks to win.
His image in England was good for a while (when he started doing movies) but dropped again when he showed his sociopath-mannered self in the Big Brother house and again when he was found cheating on his wife.
And he was caught on camera beating the crap out of guy who 'provoked' him.
ReplyDeleteHis image kinda goes up and down, but he is pretty popular.
Orrrr Jackie Chan.
ReplyDeleteHe seems like a nice dude, but doesn't he have a ton of kids he doesn't admit too, some living in poverty because of this? I remember reading it somewhere. he looks all smiley and sweet but is a major douche. And he is A list in the action-genre.
100% Steven Seagal.
ReplyDeleteAlmost killed is Anita Busch of the LA Times. His PI went to prison for it.
Bullshit
ReplyDeleteDid a movie with JCVD, this is definitely not him- although, I will say he's an...ummm...interesting character.
ReplyDeleteThe Count is right. It was worse than described in the blind.
ReplyDeleteI hate that I missed all the horror movie talk. LOVE that genre. Brought up on it. My aunt took me to see Hellraiser and let me just say...I was too young but so glad she took me. It started a grand love affair.
ReplyDeletenot into the new torture porn movies like saw. I like my gore with a little more style. The Opera, Suspiria, etc.
Just watched The Pact, Conspiracy, and the innkeepers and really enjoyed them. Felt like the good old days of the genre
Orvilla: I HEART Dario Argento!
DeleteI can't see Segal doing this. If this blind is about him, he has made some BIG changes from when I met him. Yes, he was a douche. Yes, he smelled like farts and sweat but sex trafficking...I just cant see it.
ReplyDeleteSome have called me naive so...
"Raids" on camps sound like the human equivalent of canned hunts. Why couldn't such a thing be easily hidden in a place like Jordan? Where there is smoke, there is fire. Money talks. I don't see how anyone thinks it *couldn't* be a second-rate actor - one who is protected and feted by rich friends in probably poor countries. After I read the Dutroux Compendium and related stories (spellbinding, tragic, terrifying), I thought if only 10% of the story was true - the least horrific 10% - that was still pretty fucking horrific and depraved. If this particular item is not true, I still would not be surprised to learn that it has taken place. Multiple times. Perpetrated by people we have heard of.
ReplyDeleteI have a hard time picturing Seagal chasing after people once he runs out of ammo. The guy has six chins.
ReplyDelete@Orvilla, I am so happy that the torture porn fad seems to be losing popularity. Creepy, supernatural horror movies are my favorite.
@pip me too!
ReplyDelete"Iceberg"
ReplyDeleteHmmm. . .
Segal is a nutcase.
ReplyDeleteTrue story from someone who worked with him on one of his last big features. The someone asked Segal on a Monday, "How was your weekend?" Segal went into a tale of a "special ops with the CIA" he'd participated in, where he was dropped into some country for an "extraction." "In and out, nobody got hurt." The someone wanted to laugh, because the story was so outrageous. Holy shit, does this mean it was true? Or that now that he cant' get acting jobs anymore, he's paying to do all the things he dreamed about, like a fat, mysoginistic Walter Mitty?
ALSO...the someone related that the Studio (WB) was constantly writing $50,000 checks to women as sexual harassment payouts for Segal. It was practically a line item in the budget and according to those in Segal's entourage, was standard on his movies. Studio would pay to shut women up he'd attempted to rape.
Such blech! And after hearing this and other accounts, I get the same feeling from Seagal, that I got from watching Wolf Creek.
DeleteBizarre. I could've sworn Seagal was a vegan animal rights activist. Guess it doesn't preclude him being a rapist and murderer. But I do find the juxtapositions vertiginous. Closing thesaurus...
ReplyDeleteTara: Hitler was a vegetarian.
DeleteForgive me if missed that Ithis was someone else's guess, and I'm just throwing it down because of a blind about him that I read recently, but how about Mickey Rourke ?
ReplyDeleteAll I can think of is Steven Segal.
ReplyDeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDeleteMickey Rourke is my guess
ReplyDelete@Rach I always knew you were a superior badass! Dario is just...magnificent.
ReplyDelete@Rach what if we could add like Television, Joy Division, and the Raincoats to some of Dario's work with the Goblins??!!! That would be CRAZY GOOD.

And another about threats against a reporter investigating Seagal:
ReplyDeletehttp://www.nytimes.com/2002/09/04/business/media/04MAG.html
@davestone @hendrix and others, holy shit. i had no idea. wow. my face is broke.
ReplyDeleteSteven seagull!
ReplyDeleteAs for horror movies, saw suspira in 4k at the cinema, absolutely amazing! I actually communicate with Dario argento's ex wife Daria nicolodi, she wrote suspiria about the stories her grandmother told her.
Behind the mask- the rise and fall of Leslie Vernon is a wonderful recommendation.
Boys in the trees is a must see...
Try south Korea for movie .. train to Busan... The host... I saw the devil..
I'm a long time lurker sniederisnext and justsayin I have to say all your research on those church blinds have been mind-blowing, Keep it up!
