Today's Blind Items- Therapy
This actress started off as a sought after tweener. She reached almost A list tweener status before there was even a term for tweener. She kind of disappeared from acting because of an incident that happened on her second to last project. She was doing her usual G rated fare and while filming spent a lot of time alone with just a chaperone. Her parents were not able to be there and her co-star used the chaperon so everyone assumed that the actress would be safe. The problem is that the chaperon was dating one of the stars of the project. He was an almost A list mostly movie actor at the time. He had a thing for mid teens and at the time would only do projects that had them. This one had two such teens and through his influence with the chaperone, he was able to spend time alone with each of the tweens. He had sex with them both at separate times and repeatedly did so during the course of the filming. Our actress didn't say anything to anyone and tried to continue acting but after one more projects called it quits for almost a decade out of the business and lots of time in therapy. She is back in the business.
The other tweener actress also took a long break after what happened, but would try and come back and be forced to quit when memories would return. She has also managed to make a comeback.
As for the actor. His career tanked when working on a movie a year after the one described. He was caught and the parents of the tween on that movie were threatening a lawsuit, but it was kept quiet and the studio and producers settled. Because it was kept quiet, none of the other parents on any of his other movies ever heard what he did. The actor is barely able to work now because of his past and there appears to be no forgiveness. His roles are small and just barely enough to live.

Is this a blind about Family Affair?
ReplyDeleteAnna clumsky?
ReplyDeleteMaryam Bailik?
I was thinking anna Chomsky in there somewhere
DeleteAnd the Universe always unfolds as it should...
ReplyDeletewes bently
ReplyDeleteSomeone needs to have the courage to stand up and publicly accuse these scumbags. I know it is hard, and I'm not saying I could do it, But I hope someone does. It's the only hope that the cycle of abuse will stop and these pedophiles stop getting hired.
ReplyDeleteCorey Feldman?
ReplyDeleteAnna Chlumsky came to mind but I'm not seeing anything in her IMDB that fits.
ReplyDeleteIt's Val Kilmer/Kiss kiss Bang Bang/Ariel winter as comeback
ReplyDeleteUnless she woulda been too young..but kilmer in there for sure
ReplyDeleteIf its Anna Chlumsky the guy may be David Keith.
ReplyDeleteAriel winter doesn't fit ,she always worked much ( see her IMDB)
ReplyDeleteI don't guess victims.
ReplyDeleteIs English not the first language of this Enty?
If so, not bad, not bad at all! WAY better than I could do in, say, Italian.
In future:
Chaperon is not the same as chaperone.
"...after one more projects.." is incorrect use of the plural. "Project", singular must be used when "one more" is used.
See? One = singular!
Work on those and we'll chat later.
Akroyd and Chumulsky?

ReplyDeleteBirch left because of her creepy porn dad.
DeleteNeve Campbell, Matt Damon and the other chick in Wild Things?
ReplyDeleteDILLON, Matt DILLON
ReplyDeleteMaybe it's too far back but Patty Duke?
ReplyDeleteAND again..The parents could have pressed charges. Doesn't sound like these girls willingly had sex with this abuser since they dropped out of the business for a while and got therapy. That chaperone sucked by the way!
ReplyDeleteI believe both Anna and Amy Farrah Fowler went onto higher education and are both very, very smart book wise. Or am I thinking of Winnie who's a math genius and not Anna?
@Sherry- Winnie's the mathlete.
DeleteI don't think David Keith is that kind of man. Supposed to all around good guy. Is what I here from people that lives in his town:/
DeleteAnnd chumskley and Cristina ricci did a movie together called gold diggers w David Keith...
ReplyDeleteI thought Anna & Cristina right away.
DeleteKristy mcnichol and tatum oneil?
ReplyDeleteLittle Foxes...exactly what I was thinking of! Wasn't Armand Assante the male star (other than Matt Dillon who was young and definitely not yet A list)? I don't think either Kristy or Tatum are acting anymore, though.
DeleteThat's awful.
ReplyDeleteI hate guessing the girls at this shit, but I am going to say Dan Akroyd for the creeper!!

ReplyDeleteI'm on the David Keith bandwagon. His career sure did tank about the time of Gold Diggers Daughter. Those guest spots, unless they are trying to go for ratings, pay well but you've got to book a couple of spots a month to break six figures in income. It's tough work. Enty is correct on that point.
ReplyDeleteGaby Hoffman, Christina Ricci, Jay Mohr
ReplyDeleteI thought Gaby Hoffman too
DeleteMohr has a radio show now.
ReplyDeleteBoozie got it.
ReplyDeleteNot one I feel good about getting, however.
Deleteblinds like this are just loathsome. We're meant to be disgusted yet the salacious details are out there on a gossip site for entertainment. And every guess as to the identity of the pedo smears everyone with the same filth, while Enty sits back and won't every actually i.d. anyone. I'm mad at enty today for being a gutless wonder.

ReplyDelete@Rollo -V. Mars wouldn't appreciate Carradine messing w/Marjorino. Probably sick some 0-niners on his ass.
ReplyDeleteThe worst part of the pedi blinds is always the pearl clutching.
ReplyDeleteRicci never took a decade long break
ReplyDeleteI hope you're wrong about Keith. His wiki page says he has done some speaking in support of stronger sex offender laws.

ReplyDeleteIt looks like Anna C has worked pretty consistently since My Girl
ReplyDeleteA few small roles but definitely not a decade off
She could work for girl #2
I love her in Veep - she's a fantastic actress
Out these pricks!! Why you looking at producers or directors for guidance?!!
ReplyDeleteAnna does have a seven-year gap in her imdb profile, but Christina has worked pretty consistently. Plus, was David Keith considered almost A list in 1995?
ReplyDeleteThe parents of the tweener the guy was caught with should have called the police, not just threatened a lawsuit. Sounds like they wanted cash instead of protecting others.
I was thinking maybe Mara Wilson? She hasn't worked in a decade, on the other hand she hasn't made a comeback in movies either..

ReplyDeleteTatum and Kristi MacNichol.
ReplyDeleteThere is no amount of money that would induce me to keep my mouth shut if this had happened to my child! I would have pressed charges to the fullest extent of the law and screamed it from the rooftops.....AFTER I let my husband, father and brothers have a go at the guy with baseball bats!
ReplyDelete@Dena...It was called Little Darlings, and came out in early 80's. I guessed Kristy and Tatum too, but who would the actor be?
ReplyDeletetatum or kristy have not had their careers revived.
DeleteDavid Keith has worked steadily since the mid-80's.
ReplyDeleteI don't think it's Tatum
A clue in this blind is that the one tweener was doing her usual G-rated fare.
ReplyDeleteThat leaves out Little Darlings.
Hmm, if they needed therapy then it wasn't sex - it was rape - repeated rape. Fucking freaks.
ReplyDeletealotta my stuff's being deleted?!
ReplyDeleteAndre-Movie
Keith Carradine-Actor
Tina Majorino-One Actress
Andrea Libman-Other Actress
LOl, I got pretty confused if everyone meant Keith David. I mean if you take his character from Requiem for a Dream maybe.
ReplyDeleteI didn't know who Andrea Libman was so I looked at her IMDB and she is the busiest working voice person for her whole career. Cant be her. That being said I have no clue---maybe Gaby H but she didn't do a lot of cutesy G movies even as a kid
ReplyDeleteMara Wilson disappeared for a while...but I don't think anything else fits.
ReplyDeleteLots of guessing and it can be pretty poisonous if we are wrong. Anna Chlumsky does have a seven year gap in her IMDB and she did do a movie with Cristina Ricci but both Cristina and David Keith have worked steadily after that and Keith had that highly thought of series on HBO Arli$$ after the movie they did together. I wish this person could be revealed but I think this guessing game can be dangerous not to mention libelous.
ReplyDeleteTimothy Busfield? Although he did have a part on West Wing so the timing isn't right.
ReplyDeleteMae Whitman and Larisa Oleynik were I'm a movie together
ReplyDeleteI was thinking Michael Keaton or Dennis Quaid but none of their movies fit.
ReplyDeleteSteven Seigal/under seige 2(1995)/katherine Heigl for original tweener(she was 15)/ who was removed from biz ness a long time, and re emerged. Sandra Taylor / other actress...evidently C/D list. Ish..but working.
ReplyDeleteDunno...maybe there's a reason her mom(Heigl) became her "momager" and so....controlling...
Don't forget Katherine heighl and Gerard depardu were in some movie when she was 14 or so and then disappeared until Grey anatomy.
DeleteLoved Arli $$ btw.
And we all know his penchant for young girls....he's been forced to live in other countries because of it:(
ReplyDeleteHe was my first thought..hi and kilmer..cuz they are both vile
Yep..heigl a first leading role with Depardieu was my father the Hero (1994) when she wore the string bathing suit ....and was Lolita incarnate..she was probably handpicked by Siegal
ReplyDeleteDavid Keith has never stopped working consistently, including the recent successful Hawaii Five O remake....he has been on episodic TV the last 10 years and was never an almost A list film actor.....??
ReplyDeleteGaby Hoffman is another excellent guess
ReplyDeleteShe was everywhere for awhile
Ariana Richards from Jurassic Park fits...
ReplyDeleteJeff goldblum.
DeleteJessi - what is the deal with Dan Akroyd? Never heard that about him!
ReplyDeleteThx!
The on,y Gaby Hoffman scenario that fits is her return, after a definite absence..in 2000/film-you can count on me- almost A actor at time matthew Broderick (impossible..trust me) or mark ruffalo( who was not close to A then..still only B+.. She doesn't fit because was meant to have occurred before her break...and she was like..l4/5/6 years of age in those films....

ReplyDelete*4 /5 or 6 years of age*
ReplyDelete@Haywood J, Veronica would bring it to him herself, even in her current state,no doubt about it-no messin' w/the posse.
ReplyDelete@Tricia, my first thought was My Father the Hero w/ Heigl & Depardieu but didn't fit.I didn't know she worked w/Steven Seagal...that explains a lot
ReplyDelete-that sickeningly works.
Seagal / Heigl had this inappropriate encounter back in the day.. Ick..
ReplyDeletehttp://guestofaguest.com/los-angeles/celebrities/top-five-greatest-moments-in-inappropriate-celebrity-touching
I was going to suggest Jenna Malone until I looked her up. She's worked steadily her whole life! Think Sisterhood of the Travelling Pants era maybe?

ReplyDeleteTo follow up with my Siegal/heigl/under siege (1995) guess..
ReplyDeleteThe following year he worked on Glimmer Man with then 17/18 year old Alexa Vega.....
After that, all his movies "projects" were straight to video....hence, career tanked
I wouldn't wish this on anybody but I hope it wasn't Heigl because I detest her and I don't want pity to cloud my judgment.
ReplyDeletestrike me down for wondering why things have been very quiet with Lloyd Dobler
ReplyDelete@TLP..worry not, cusack-one of my faves-is still working, and always has...just smaller golems...he is at TIFF right now:)
ReplyDeleteI believe he is directing a bit as welll
My guess is Christian Slater with Tina Majorino as the main teen and Mae Whitman as the second. Movie was Merry Christmas, George Bailey in 1997.
