While working on a movie with kids, this A list mostly movie actor who only gets to be A list when in his franchise or an action movie met with some families of special needs children. The families had been visiting the set and consisted of families mainly with children who have Down's Syndrome. Our actor was so touched by the families he met that he visited one of the centers that was training teens to become productive adults and that had job training and how to live on your own and just preparing them to be adults with Down's Syndrome. Over the past decade our actor has funneled millions of dollars towards the center through his own donations and those of cast members. he makes sure all of the families and attendees visit his sets and go to the premieres. He has basically been a one man provider of funding for two centers who would not be open with the kind of services they offer if not for our actor. At one point during the peak of the recession he was what was keeping them open.

ReplyDeleteHis son has Autism.
DeleteKeanu Reeves
ReplyDeleteOr maybe Vin Diesel
ReplyDeleteOr Vin Diesel?
ReplyDeleteChuck Norris
ReplyDeletesylvester Stallone?
ReplyDeleteSly was in one of the Spy Kids
ReplyDeleteI think Derek got it.....Dwayne did a special tribute to a boy named Milton with DS and was in the special Olympics.....
ReplyDeleteSly Stallone wouldn't give anyone a dime. That's like saying yesterday Gene Simmons doesn't have a rock star persona. Vin Diesel or The Rock fit best, Diesel was in The Pacifier with a bunch of kids in 2005, so the timeline for a decade would fit.
ReplyDeleteThe rock
ReplyDeleteI have a soft spot for The Famous who give back…after all everything is round, this is good karma
ReplyDeleteVin Diesel
ReplyDeleteDwayne Johnson has, several times, posted a picture with a young man named Kyle who works out at his gym and has DS (On Instagram). He also seems like a really giving guy who uses his tough persona to make change happen. My entire household just adores him.
ReplyDeleteDiesel also seems like a decent dude and the "only A when in a movie" descriptor does fit. I like both for this blind and in general.
ReplyDeleteI like Dwayne Johnson as well. He seems like a good guy...and a good American, if you can still say that.
ReplyDeleteGreat for this person!
ReplyDeletePlease say this will be revealed.
ReplyDeleteWhy does this have to be a blind? Can't we just acknowledge the kindness and decency inherent in such generosity? I can snicker at the movie persona of each guessee..... I'd love to be able to honor at least one.....this one.

ReplyDeleteThis is fkng awesome
ReplyDeleteWhoever it is, BRAVO! I'm sure their grace, kindness, and generosity has meant the world to many people.
ReplyDeleteIn deference of Tara and not wanting to sully her and her families opinion of Dwayne, I will keep my mouth shut.
ReplyDeleteStill, just to make a blanket statement, told you you were a pussy back at Madison and your Daddy couldn't do a damn thing about it. #2 Guy > Curtain Jerker Tag Guy
Had I not had a degenerative knee condition, you would've been jobbing in Memphis your entire career, Flex Kavana. Just when you think you have all the answers, I change the questions, Bitch.
ReplyDeleteI am confused.
DeleteSorry, I've got a personal problem with Dwayne Johnson that goes back decades.
ReplyDeleteLove to hear the story @Rowdy. I want to think this is Vin Diesel as I always had a tingle for him.
ReplyDeletewhoever it is NICELY DONE! ~applause~
ReplyDeleteSly's son has autism, not DS
ReplyDelete@boomom22 Let's just say it involves a 13 year old skinny black kid calling a 12 year old chunky white kid a "hick racist cracker" because the 12 year old didn't think his Daddy was the best. The 12 year old got pissed off and the 13 year old threw a punch that the 12 year old ducked and then took the 13 year old down and started wailing on him until he was crying and the 13 year old's steroid enhanced Dad pulled the 12 year old off and nearly broke the 12 year old's arm. Then another big hulking guy grabbed the 13 year old's Daddy and threw him to the ground and stomped him. Daddy got in trouble but the other guy didn't because he was waaaaaaaaay more important at their job than Daddy was.
ReplyDeleteSly's son has autism, not downs. Either way I don't think it's him.
ReplyDeleteHas the Rock ever worked on a movie with a lot of kids? I'll go with Vin for this. He fits the descriptors and is pretty low key so I could see him not making a big deal about this i.e. getting publicity out of it.
