Today's Blind Items - Another Mommie Dearest
Instead of making this a narrative, I thought I would just throw out a few things this former A- list dual threat actress from back in the day has done to her children. Our actress has spawned an acting family.
#1 - Let her eldest daughter be molested by an actor ex-husband because our actress was trying to get back together with the ex.
#2 - Would entertain political donors in her home. By entertaining I mean she had sex with men who in return would give money to her favorite politician in the state who was much more famous than our actress. More than once she had sex with men in her daughter's room while her daughter was sleeping in the bed.
#3 - Raided a multi-million dollar trust fund established by the father of her kids for a get rich quick scheme that failed. She lost every penny of the trust fund.
Judy Garland?
ReplyDeleteARRRGHH I hate these "dual threat" BI. Anyone know what Enty's definition is?
ReplyDeletedianna ross
ReplyDeletea)Liza/vincent
ReplyDeleteGoldie Hawn just for the hell of it
ReplyDeleteC)syd luft father to Lorna andJoey Luft
ReplyDeleteI'm assuming duak threat this time is movies and tv not singing and acting or Broadway
ReplyDeletenvmnd
ReplyDeleteHmmmm Rita Hayworth, ex being Orson Welles? Trust fund being Prince Ally Khan? Not to keen on this guess so still looking
ReplyDeleteNM just noticed acting family
ReplyDeletedebbie reynolds?
ReplyDeletei think the subject is still alive
ReplyDeletehttp://hollowverse.com/judy-garland/
ReplyDeleteSinger/actress and political donor.
Great guess!
Mia Farrow
ReplyDeleteMelanie Griffith. Sorry, Melanie. My 1st thought but I don't think she sings. Tippi Hedren???
ReplyDeleteI don't think any of Judy's husbands were actors, the. 4th one had a small role in Fellini's 8 1/2 and appeared in the MST3K favorite Girl in Gold Boots but that's it.
ReplyDeleteMy first thought was Rita Hayworth
I think we have our answer
ReplyDeleteMy only issue with the Judy guess is this part of the BI
ReplyDelete"her favorite politician in the state who was much more famous than our actress." I mean who was more famous than Judy? But then again this is Enty............
Debbie only has one daughter- so eldest daughter wouldn't apply
ReplyDeleteRita is possible guess but I'm not sure she was politically active like that. Donors and all. Shirley MacLaine was I checked her but she has only 1 child.
ReplyDeleteThx@sunny!
ReplyDelete@MM I hear ya:(
Wasn't Connie Stevens' actor ex eventually convicted of molesting a young girl?
ReplyDeleteBarbra only has one child. Drat
ReplyDeleteElizabeth Taylor - movies & TV, multiple famous spouses, politically active (married to a governor at one point), heavily supported Israeli causes, drug addict.
ReplyDeleteFor the record, I adored her, still do.
Eldest daughter, Liza Todd.
ReplyDeleteEverything I ever read about Rita says she was a nice sweet lady with terrible taste in men
ReplyDeleteElizabeth Taylor spawned an acting family??
ReplyDeleteJanet Leigh
ReplyDelete1. Tony Curtis and eldest daughter Kelly. Kelly and Jamie Lee Curtis are both actresses.
ReplyDelete2".A lifelong Democrat, Leigh was an active political campaigner in the 1960s, particularly for Adlai Stevenson and then the Kennedys, with whom she became good friends. In 1964 President Lyndon Johnson asked her to be ambassador to Finland, but she felt it was too early in her marriage to contemplate separation. For years she worked tirelessly for the charity Share (Share Happiness and Reap Endlessly), on behalf of retarded children"

Nailed IT.
Debbie Reynolds
ReplyDeleteAlly didn't have any money, Rita didn't find that out until after she married him. She had to go back to work acting to support him & his gambling.
ReplyDeleteDebbie's hubby stole all her money with his bad investments.
ReplyDeleteok, i don't think this is someone who's dead. it says 'dual threat from back in the day HAS DONE to her children.' just sounds like they're all still alive.
ReplyDeleteand i know judy did a lot of shit, but she can't be the answer to every 'bad mother' story. also, who left the big trust fund? was sid luft that loaded?
Unless It was JFK. I'm going to try and look this up.
ReplyDeleteJudy wasn't A- list though.
ReplyDeleteYep! Good job Tricia13. They were very close friends and she campaigned for him relentlessly.
ReplyDeleteLMAO!
ReplyDeleteThing is nobody fits better Garland.Janet Leigh was not a double threat by any means(even Entys open interpretation). She sang in ByeBye Birdie and My sister Eileen for example but was so unaccomplished and it was so sort of not her thing, it was assumed to be dubbed. It wasn't- but she was mediocre at best. I would say as her Wiki does she was an actress and author. Also Jaime Lee who I adore is so transparent in her life, struggles etcetera I can't imagine it would go unmentioned. Sid Luft had enough money to finance Judys comeback in "A Star is Born" along with the studio. He was a very successful producer.
ReplyDeleteThat's still a double-threat. He calls Jamie Dornan a double threat cause he is in some side-band no one has heard of. Judy was/is permanent A+ and not the answer to every blind about a crazy mother. and I just PROVED the answer to number 3.
ReplyDeleteCurtis Sues Janet .

ReplyDeleteActually, it was Curtis who was sued for being an awful father and cheap with his money. It is more likely if there was a lawsuit he , himself spearheaded, it was bogus and done in order to steal or retain his money.
Your google link with a ? mark (#3)doesn't open to anything and or/no results. Is there another link maybe that suggests Curtis sued for misappropriating his funds?
ReplyDeleteI am not sure but what happened to Miss Stevens is sad.She lost everything money wise I think.
ReplyDeletelmfao! ouch. try again maybe later derek?
ReplyDeleteJane Fonda
ReplyDeleteNope. I just thought if I said "nailed it" or "Bam" enough times my answer would eventually be right!
ReplyDeleteJudy A-? She had 1 ex-husband who was an actor but they were only together briefly in the mid-'60s. Liza would have been about 20, so I'm not sure "molested" works. The rest were all directors, musicians and/or gay. She was supposedly broke when she died so it's possible she raided a trust fund. Just seems to be too many things "off" to be Judy. Does Jayne Mansfield have any acting kids other than Mariska?
ReplyDeleteThese people are assholes--it is Janet Leigh

ReplyDeleteWe need another Old Hollywood day. Maybe the middle of the year?
ReplyDeleteAgree.
ReplyDeleteI thought of the Judds because I remember an interview not long ago Ashley Judd stating she was raped when she was the younger.
ReplyDeletePeople on here saying Judy Garland is A-! For shame! She is permanent A+!
ReplyDeleteInteresting guess....wonder if more clues fit?
ReplyDeleteHiya@coraB! Thanks- thought maybe was a fit but dunno/great info RE: Kennedy.....didn't know so kudos to ya:)))
ReplyDeleteConnie Stevens all the way! Wiki tells the tale. Actress, singer, 2 acting daughters,1st ex husband actor/convicted molester. Plus it notes her political donations, and she's recently in the news for being bankrupt
ReplyDeleteIt can't be Judy Garland or Elizabeth Taylor. They are both permanent A+ and nobody was more famous than they were. It isn't Rita Hayworth either, she never raided her kids trust funds.
ReplyDeleteJanet Leigh and Debbie Reynolds are both good guesses.
