Blind Item #9
This former A+ list mostly movie actress has dropped to A- over the past few years. A publicity driven marriage to an idiot has not really helped and her attempts at making her face look younger have backfired to the point where no one wants to book her for a movie.
SandyB?
ReplyDeleteNicole Kidman
ReplyDeleteCameron Diaz
ReplyDeleteNicole's so nipped and tucked she doesn't look human anymore.
ReplyDelete+1000
ReplyDeleteI'm with Tiny Dancer with the Diaz guess.
ReplyDeleteRenée Zellweger? My first thought at the face thingy...
ReplyDeleteNice one@ Tiny Dancer....
ReplyDeleteCameron Diaz looks EXACTLY the same---just much older with wrinkles. If anything she needs to look into a little work done. Her marriage to Benji was not for publicity it was because she was lonely and all her friends were having kids etc. It only gave her bad publicity ---she is not stupid--she knows that but was desperate enough to settle.
ReplyDeleteI love "marriage to an idiot".
ReplyDeleteI want this to be Julia Roberts.
and I should add---Cameron is not getting much work---because her past 5 films have flopped BIG TIME. She is box-office poison these days.
ReplyDeleteTrue, she's messed up her face. Who's the idiot? I assumed the marriage mentioned was current. If not, Chesney was 10 years ago.
ReplyDeleteWorks for me.
how does mila kunis look lately?
ReplyDelete+1. Derek is right, this blind pretty much describes the opposite of Diaz. She's total box office poison, and will probably only be part of ensemble casts for the foreseeable future.
ReplyDeletefocusing on idiots, i get ashton kutcher, sean penn, ryan reynolds, josh brolin,
ReplyDeleteI think this is Charlie Therone. Sounds like she is just tired of the old show, but I thought she looked much better now that she's working out her new contract and getting out of there. Trying to switch to a new movie and, yeah, the husband pushes her around. She's kind of a push-over. That's her main flaw. She should tell people to f*ck off more often.
ReplyDeleteCammy Diaz.I checked to see and her last credit is Annie which was awful.
ReplyDeleteShe has nothing coming up, being filmed,or set for release- so it does seems nobody is hiring her.
Nicole K. has a couple of films due out still this year and like 2-3 in 2016. She is working plenty even if she looks a little different.
I feel like this should be Kidman because her face doesn't move and her lips are a little too jacked, but I don't think Urban fits the idiot description.
ReplyDeleteReese? Jim Toth isn't an idiot per se, I know he's a super successful agent, but he always looks like a cuckolded mope.
ReplyDeleteRenée is in London doing pre-production for the new Bridget Jones. I don't think she's married either and her boyfriend does not look to be an idiot.
ReplyDeleteCharlize isn't married.
ReplyDeleteNicole Kidman, really? Derek and others are calling Keith Urban an idiot? So, that makes then uber idiots then.
ReplyDelete*them
ReplyDeleteEasy. Cameron Diaz. Over the past few years, her movies haven't done well. Then there was the random marriage to Benji Madden...publicity driven perhaps because people kept asking her about marriage and she finally decided to do it. She admitted to botox, so she has been attempting to make herself look younger. She even came out with a beauty regime book. She also has no upcoming projects that she's working on. Not even an announcement of a new movie.
ReplyDeleteI thought Cameron purposely & thoughtfully cleared her schedule to work on a family.
ReplyDeleteI'll guess Megan Fox to be different.
ReplyDeleteThat's what Diaz (and her publicist) would have you believe. "Taking time off to try and have a baby" is a much more interesting story than "my last couple of movies were flops, and its hard for me to find good roles now".
ReplyDeleteOn baby itself, the chance of a 43 year old woman like Diaz being able to have a baby without a donated egg is only about 10%, and even with IVF the odds are against her. She's not dumb. . .she has to know this.
Also, trying to get pregnant, or even BEING pregnant aren't necessarily bars to finding work as an actor if you're in demand. Diaz has done voiceover work before (eg Shrek). . .she could do that while pregnant. IIRC, Angelina Jolie, for example, did her role in Kung Fu Panda while pregnant. And didn't Scarlett Johansson shoot Avengers 3 while pregnant?
All that said, I don't buy this blind. Diaz had 4-5 big roles in the last 2-3 years, and a couple of minor ones, and her appearance hasn't changed in any dramatic way I can see. IE, she was still getting work until relatively recently. Unless she's done something pretty drastic to her appearance in the last year, either the blind isn't her, or simply isn't true.
These things are always a little debatable, but I don't think Cameron Diaz was ever A+, BTW. Megan Fox definitely wasn't. Fox was also with the same man for around 10 years, married for 5, and has two kids with him. . .don't see how that relationship can be a "publicity stunt".
ReplyDeleteRenee Zellweger was A+ (has an academy award and multiple Golden Globes), and she was known for a rather dramatic recent change to her appearance. Problem with this one is that after a pretty long absence, Zellweger actually IS working again, she's shooting the Bridget Jones sequel right now, and she did another movie last year (due to be released early next year). She did have a short marriage, but that was so long ago, I can't see how its relevant to her job prospects now.
Nicole Kidman's star has faded a bit, and her cosmetic work is notable, but she's been married for nearly ten years to Keith Urban, again, way too long (IMO) for that to be some sort of publicity stunt. With four movies out this year, and more in production for next, I don't think she's having trouble getting work, so I can't see how this applies.
I'll bring one up just to shoot it down. Uma Thurman has had a significant recent change to her appearance, and her star has also faded a bit. But I'm not sure she was ever "A+" either, and so far as I know she hasn't been in any publicity driven relationships. She's also currently filming as the lead in "The Brits are Coming" so I don't think this fits her either.
Her boyfriend is Doyle Bramhall II. He's a rock/blues guitarist, vocalist and producer with a pretty impressive pedigree and list of accomplishments.
ReplyDeleteI don't think he's an "idiot", but he is an "addict" with a bad history of heroin abuse earlier in his career.
I find it hard to see how their relationship could be a publicity stunt. They've been together for a few years, still together, and really outside of blues/rock fans, I don't think Bramhall is well known.
Well, Cameron can't act so that is why she isn't in any films anymore.
ReplyDeleteNicole K and Renee are consistently excellent actors even when the movie is crap.
C Z-J? I don't want to call Michael Douglas an idiot but he did blame his throat cancer on her. OT - Cameron Diaz can't "act" act but she was hilarious in Bad Teacher.
ReplyDeleteCatherine Zeta-Jones is arguably A+; she does have an Academy Award, as well as a pretty impressive award list and filmography.
ReplyDeleteI don't think Michael Douglas in an idiot, and far from it. Also, he didn't blame his oral cancer directly on her. . .he blamed it on prior sexual activity (ie before her). Come to think about it, maybe he is an idiot ;-).
Anyway, CZJ is working now on "The Godmother"; don't think she's having trouble finding work.
.
Michael Douglas actually is A+ list, he's far from an idiot, and
Not Cameron Diaz. Recent photos on her FB show her looking very natural and beautiful. Well known she has chosen to take time off and to describe BM as an idiot is not true. Most describe him as a lovely person. Plus CD hasn't done any TV shows only movies.
ReplyDeleteYes, he is not an idiot, I do not know him personally and I Iove his work as an actor. Actually, I honestly think he is one of my favorite actors of all time. A+++++++. Also, you are right, he did not blame the cancer on her. Just wanted to clarify that. .
ReplyDeleteI'm a bit stumped. I think we are supposed to think Diaz but it really doesn't fit. She hasn't had lots of surgery. There were unflattering photos the other day but she was makeup free and squinting in the sun. I've seen other recent photos of her in Australia and she looked beautiful. I read she might be having IVF which does make you puffy, all the hormones. I believe she is not doing movies because at her age if you want babies there is not much time to waste! Her husband definately marches to his own drum with the way he dresses and the tattoos but he hasn't done anything that makes him an idiot, they actually seem to be happy to go under the radar unlike some other celebs. I love Sandra Bullock and I definately don't think it's her, she doesn't look like she's had a lot of work either. And I don't think it's Kidman either, doesn't fit.
ReplyDeletekate winslet / ned rocknroll for the idiot?
ReplyDeleteReally appreciate you sharing this post. Cool.
