Blind Items Revealed #6 - Anniversary Month

July 26, 2007

So this former A list teen television and movie star of the 80’s is basically out of money because of a stale career and a serious drug habit. The only thing he has left to sell is his house. So, he calls a real estate agent and she comes over to look at the house and decide what it’s worth. Well the first one is there for all of about five minutes when our actor starts hitting on her and trying to have sex with her and she basically flees. After many apologies, the broker sends over a man this time and he walks through the house. The house is in a great location and should sell for $4 or $5 million IF it was in good shape. The problems with the house are (a) multiple sections of the wall show fire damage from freebasing incidents gone bad (b) one of the second floor bathrooms has no floor because one night our actor got drunk and thought about putting a fire pole from the 2nd floor to the first and basically took a sledgehammer and knocked it all out. There is a door, a toilet and a tub. No counter or floor anywhere else. (c) The kitchen is covered in mold. The floors, the walls, any exposed surface are covered in it as well as rodent droppings and roaches everywhere. (d) the entire house smells like death and rehab. While the agent is walking through the house, our actor is doing one line of coke after another and keeps offering the agent one and is getting more and more offended that the agent will not share or participate. He then starts thinking the agent is actually a policeman and goes to find his gun. (Why he would get his gun if he thought it was a cop is beyond me) While looking for his gun, the agent gets the hell out and no one has been back. Meanwhile, people do sometimes hire this guy for work, but only enough to keep him in drugs. (Not the Corey’s although I wouldn’t want to go to their place either)

Richard Grieco

    He wasn't a teen star or a movie star unless you count B movies. He didnt do much of anything worth a damn after 21 Jump Street.

    According to IMDB as well, he was 22 when he got his first tv role, so not a teen actor. OG, wtf?

    Seriously - this stuff is made up and when a while later, it seems like Item A might match celeb Q, it becomes a 'reveal'.
    Chances are that people who watched tv or went to movies in the 80s aren't reading here, so what the hell? Even if they do read here, the target audience (18-24) will assume they're too old to remember shit and won't pay attention.
    IMO, this site is for fan fiction/entertainment purposes only.

    I can believe that Grieco has a huge bad crack/heroin/meth problem and his house is more a crack house than a Hollywood home but Grieco doesn't fit with the description

    It is actually embarrassing! You would think enty would just make-up a better answer.

    Didn't you know? Anyone over 24 has a memory like a steel sieve. People in their 30's have one foot in the grave.

    I remember Grieco being guessed for something but I thought it was the guy who left a stash of huge dildos in his house when he sold/rented it.

  18. Ohhhhhhhhhhhh a Richard Grieco reveal. Juicy stuff, if this was 1995.

    This is right up there with Enty calling Lamar Odom an A+ athlete.

    It's actually worse ...

    No way in Hell Richard Grieco is a homeowner. No Freakin way! Look, if I leave my car unlocked at night there is a fifty percent chance that I'll find that guy sleeping in it the next morning.

    OMG I just went into an internet wormhole looking for Richard Grieco's real estate history and so many weird stories and pictures came up. I'll never get that time back, why do I love celebrity blinds?

    Maybe Enty thought he was a teen because he was on 21 Jump Street playing an undercover teen? And he was VERY briefly a movie star. Again, no surprise if Enty's memory put 1991 under the '80s. I do the same thing all the time.

    This totally makes sense because I know this house, and it belonged to Mickey Rourke in the 1990s. My friend had to clean it up: Syringes in the fridge, dog poop on antique furniture, all sorts of gross.
