Blind Item #5
This former B list mostly television actress who got her fame on an almost network hit has been causing delays on her new movie. Apparently she has been promoting clothes and bags while on the set and is constantly having to have her makeup and costumes reapplied when she needs to film her scenes.

ReplyDeleteI don't even understand why she's hired to "act" at all.
ReplyDeleteThis trend is behind my overall disillusionment with show business in general. Totally talentless people in big money productions - no effing way I'm paying to see acting this bad. Evidently people do.
She must be really, really good in bed to keep getting "acting" work like she does.
ReplyDeleteWoody Allen, whom I had always esteemed as at least revering talent, or finding raw talent, really seems to have lowered his standards a bit with casting actors like her, IMHO...kinda shows in his recent work(not Blue jasmine, clearly)Kelly Rorbach, Leo's beard, is in his current film: case in point.
ReplyDeleteOr maybe people don't work for Woody anymore because his movies dont do good box office and he's got tight budgets to meet so they don't get paid well. Artistic reasons for doing work dont seem to exist anymore.
ReplyDeleteArtistic reasons for doing movies is happening more now than ever before. Indie movies are getting A listers & those movies aren't making big money, but actors are doing them because they really love the part, the writer, the director, or all of the above. You would never see A listers in the low budget movies they're appearing in now. They'd only work with studio movies that pay well. Over time more & more actors started doing indie movies because the parts were better, that's especially true now when most movies are CGI crap-fest. There's a reason most of the Oscar nominees are low budget movies. It's because as years passed better talent, writers, directors, & actors began taking jobs that didn't pay well because the movie was more fulfilling than the comic book movies & summer blockbusters. Actors will do the big budget movies because it pays the bills, but they'll try to do lower budget 1s because artistically the movies tend to be better.
ReplyDeleteAdd to that, everyone wants to work with Woody. Sorry buy it's true.
ReplyDeletePlease change "buy" to "but." tia
ReplyDeleteYou would think every actor's team would be telling them not to associate themselves with him because it could potentially be a PR disaster if more accusations about Woody were ever made by Mia or his son, daughter, or anybody else.
ReplyDeleteIt's been years since the original accusations and exactly zero children have made additional claims against him (nor were there any before Mia's). It looks more and more like it was a bitter ex inventing claims of child molestation as revenge.
ReplyDeleteMia didn't accuse him of molesting Dylan right away. It wasn't until after he fired her from the lead in Manhattan Murder Mystery and hired Diane Keaton to do it.
I totally agree with you Malibuborbee. I've always believed that Farrow's accusations against Allen were out of spite and vengeance.
ReplyDeleteIt's hard to get clearance for children to work those hours.
ReplyDeleteNow explain away marrying his step-daughter. I have popcorn.
ReplyDeleteGo Snarknado Gooo!
ReplyDeleteHave some popcorn, b a!
ReplyDelete@malibuborebee I have a strong dislike for people like you. You're a fucking idiot. Jumping through hoops to defend an alleged child molester. All of your observations are voided by the fact that he married his daughter. Adopted/step whatever makes it absolutely no better. But yeah, I'm sure a guy like that would NEVER take advantage of a kid...sexually or otherwise.
ReplyDeleteLast year, or the year before Mia & her son spoke out about Woody. It was how many years later & it was still huge news when they made those comments about Woody. I work in public relations & I can't imagine not trying to talk an actor out of doing a Woody movie simply because you don't want your client in a position where everything they say would be dissected & could be looked at as defending child molestation. Or the actor could say nothing & get torn apart because they stayed silent instead of speaking out against child molestation.
ReplyDeleteIt doesn't really matter if the accusations are true from a PR standpoint. You don't want your client being swept up into controversial subjects like this. That's why I said I would think the actor's team would tell them not to do the movie.
