Today's Blind Items - Mentally Ill

This actress used to be A list. By some definitions she was probably A+ list. Off the top of my head I can think of four or five movies that she was the female lead or biggest lead. Top billed. A nice little run. No one liked working with her more than once. There were not a lot of crews or cast that signed up for a second shot with our actress. Even now that technically has two franchises she is in at the same time, her appearances with co-stars are very limited. She does promotional work on her own away from other cast. She usually alternates premieres and rarely travels to any premiere other than NYC. No overseas stuff for her. Mental illness runs in her family and in her case it leads to a lot of paranoia. A lot of paranoia. An A list celebrity at the time boyfriend used to have to answer for his actions and whereabouts 24/7. Not just jealousy which is what you would think but paranoia that he was doing things and actions other than just cheating for which he had to account. Same thing with a celebrity husband. The thing about both of these men were they were gone for long periods of time or else there is no way this would work out well. She thinks people follow her all the time. She thinks everyone is out to harm her. She has employed a food tester during periods of her life for fear of poisoning. She protects her house not only with alarms and armed security patrols but also chants and salt patterns. She can be incredibly nice one second and the next second is screaming at you with spit flying out of her mouth. She can spend one minute throwing things at your head trying to kill you and the next trying to have sex with you. These are not isolated incidents. It is why she backed down from an expected challenge about 18 months ago. It was not even her enemies who threatened her with revealing these things to the public, but her one or two only friends because they thought it would do even more harm than good.
