Today's Blind Items - Killing Herself

It has been awhile since you thought of this person. By thinking of her, I mean having her enter your brain when you saw her on a program talking about her past. If you are of a certain age or enjoy reruns she was a part of your weekly life. For a few years. She disappeared like so many actresses her age. There was not much more for her after her early success other than made for tv movies and a failed pilot or three. Still out there trying to earn a living as an actress she has dropped to C+ list. I might be willing to give you B- just because of the show and her past but to anyone who has not seen her show or known of her past it is C+ for sure.

A couple of years ago she was forced to take a break from acting because no one would hire her. She looked like death. Her issues coming back. Not drugs. Almost as devastating to her health though. She said she fought back and landed a role. A decent comeback role. Some schlock where she in the top ten of billing. You take what you can get though at this point. The thing is when she was filming, they had to reduce her part. Significantly. Her issues were front and center. She was so weak she could barely stand some days. People on the set seriously thought they would find her dead whenever they went to knock on her trailer. She needs help. People are trying to help but are having no luck. Unless she gets help within the next few months, she will die.

    Tracey Gold or Lara Flynn Boyle. Justine Bateman's retreat from the limelight was caused by a stalker. She might have also had a drug problem while dating Leif Garrett but she's never looked ill.

    pretty sure this is the answer

    " By thinking of her, I mean having her enter your brain when you saw her on a program talking about her past. "

    She was on shows like ET almost every week for 10 years talking about her anorexia

  19. She's has nothing on her filming schedule since 2007, according to IMDB. Are you thinking of the other one, Jaclyn Smith? She was in some awful looking Lifetime movie last year.

    I"m thinking someone older, who was big on TV years ago- Tina Louise, perhaps? Several generations have grown up on reruns of "Gilligan's Island" and she recently gave a print interview about film she just made. She also happens to be 81 now, so it would make sense if she were ill on the set.
