Today's Blind Items - The 14 Year Old Drug Addict
There have been a lot of one hit wonders in the music world. Honestly, one hit wonders kind of make the world go round. They make a ton of money for record companies and very little for the singer. The singer can usually be ok if they tour like crazy while they have any kind of recognition remaining with that song. One hit wonders usually fade away after attempting to duplicate their success but never coming close to achieving it.
It is fairly rare for a one hit wonder to just disappear off the planet. Well, not the planet, but the entertainment world, especially if they also had some other talent like acting.
This singer was nowhere one second and then everywhere just as quickly. She was young and pretty and she had everything in front of her. When she was on tour promoting the song, she was trying to juggle school and the appearances and late nights. So, someone from the record label suggested she take a pill or two when she was feeling sluggish. What started as a pill every other day turned into a handful of pills every few hours.
The next thing you know she needed to take something else to counter the effects of the pills and before long our teen singer was a full blown addict who overdosed multiple times over the course of a few months. Just when she should have been flying full speed ahead she ended up in rehab for a month. Twice.
When she got out and tried to resume her career, it was cold. She did end up doing some acting but got caught up in the same thing that happened before. This time she was also dating high profile celebrities even though she was still way under age. The guys she was dating were not though. They were older. Much older and wanted to party. She liked being surrounded by celebrity and tried to fit in so started taking drugs again and partying. It was even worse than the last time. Another couple of years were lost to drugs and rehab and when she finally got clean, her career was non existent. She has tried multiple comebacks but it is like she is starting from scratch. She has no momentum and has a reputation as someone who just can't handle the pressure. She is out there again. Trying to recapture what she had. Making the rounds. Doing press when someone will actually interview her. She doesn't have many more chances left.

ReplyDeleteJojo also had a dispute with her record company for years and she didnt record.
ReplyDeleteThere's a blind item on l i p s t i c k a l l e y that might be about e n t y.
ReplyDeleteim not even trying to navigate that site.
ReplyDeleteLink please?
ReplyDeleteWhich website is currently on their third (fourth?) owner? Said gossip blog, once known for dispensing actual real gossip via blind items, now writes nearly all of their items after a story hits. They sometimes add things to make the entries appear to be first or second hand. This is ironic considering the freshman-esque falling-out between it and another rumor mill. The blog also introduced a series (no, not the fashion one – written by the entertainment reporter who probably has/had a hand in the blog - that arrived D.O.A. TWICE) by a “friend”, that is essentially the owner re-posting comments from various places around the internet as blinds.
ReplyDeleteWhich blind? Agree with Sandy...too hard to find anything there.
ReplyDeleteThe contents of bob's comment below has some of the post
ReplyDeletelipstickalley.com/showthread.php/984072-Blind-Items
the "friend" being the Mr. X Blind Items.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Bob! Could be all of them, truthfully.
ReplyDeleteWhich dildo-owned blog makes up writes ALL of their blinds after the fact? If an item is true, it is either because the owner has stolen it, or because subsequent items were written as the real events changed over time. There are people out there who believe a couple adopted a Puerto Rican-Vietnamese child, because the wife was actually pregnant! The blog also likes to threaten other sites (with fines and lolsuits) if their blinds are re-posted...even if credit is given...even if what has been posted originated on the "offending" website! How do you steal from someone, then call them the thief? Um, rude!
ReplyDeleteHm, think this one is about Blindgossip.com? I think that adoption blind is about the Jonas bro.
Enty reveals a ton of his/her/their blinds. Christmas - New Years was epic. Who cares if it's the 3rd/4th owner, and how they find source material? It's all about the reveal, which he/she/they wouldn't do if they couldn't back it up. This smells like there's some sort of gossip blog war going on - which is fascinating and I'd love to hear more about. Enty - join the blog wars! Let's get some blog blinds going on here!
ReplyDeleteI think this is the site, "Blind Gossip."
ReplyDelete+100
ReplyDeleteI actually have a couple of her songs on my iPod & wondered what happened to her. Seems like it might be someone else since she had more than 1 hit but w/ Enty who knows?!?
ReplyDeleteHow does one lose ownership of their voice?
ReplyDeleteMom must of NOT understood a thing in the record contract; OR never had an attorney review it for her before signing it.

ReplyDeleteyeah its blindgossip
ReplyDeletelel @ him threatening people with fines if they use his blind.
Favorite comment: "is this a blind item ....about blind items?"
ReplyDeleteAmen!
ReplyDelete+1 for blog blinds!
Jojo's 25 now damn I remember when she 14 or and just starting out unless it was any earlier how time flies I wondered what happened to her
ReplyDeleteAgreed! Was the jonas baby purchased or born naturally by Danielle? Blindgossip.com has been very lame these past 6 months.
ReplyDeleteCould this blond be about Lil Mama?
ReplyDeleteLizzy Maguire?
ReplyDeleteSo this is basically a guessing game site by the lazy, for the lazy?
ReplyDeletei've had "Jojo was a man who thought he was a loner but he knew it wouldn't last" going thru my head all day since reading this damn blind.
ReplyDeleteI never really liked her. Something about a 13 year old singing about getting cheated on just seems gross.
ReplyDeleteI don't....understand what I just read. It was like a sixth grader trying to sound like she was Gossip Girl
ReplyDeleteIs the guy who owns it a dildo? Because that site is grossly conservative and whoever writes it usually sounds like an absolute jerk.
ReplyDeleteGosh JoJo seemed so sweet and innocent back in the day. Is there anyone the music and film industry doesn't chew up and spit out?
ReplyDelete"back again" is my spirit animal
ReplyDelete@tk nope
ReplyDeleteGod, who cares about the drama between this site and another? I care about celebrities, not people who run websites about them.
ReplyDeleteAnyway, IF this is JoJo it seems weird because I never heard about her dating celebs (unless they were keeping under wraps 'cause she was underage) nor about rehab.
If you are well connected (powerful producer Daddy in the biz) you have the best odds of being seen/heard, hopefully without it costing you 'extra.'

ReplyDeleteI thought "Jojo" as soon as I read the first sentence.
