Today's Blind Items - The Tattoo
There is a guy out there who has a few tattoos on his body. Old Hollywood tattoos. He has a tattoo of an original Andy Griffith Show t-shirt on his leg. Oh, also Andy Griffith as Matlock tattoo. Another tattoo he has on his body is the reason for the blind. It is a tattoo of this still alive and still kicking foreign born former A list actress. She can sing and dance and act. She was on a very long running hit network show. Despite being nominated more than 10 times, she has never won an Emmy which is keeping a technically EGOT out of her hands. Anyway, this guy sees that she is going to be performing and is desperate to show her his new tattoo. He has a glossy photo of it made up for her to sign. he waits patiently outside the theatre door for her to emerge.
"Ms. ______; I am a HUGE fan of your work! You were magical in (play she had just finished)."--extends picture and pen.
Bodyguard takes the picture and notices it's a tattoo of the actress. Guy shows him the actual tattoo....bodyguard loves it and points it out to the actress. Guy shows her.....can barely contain his excitement.
"I certainly hope that's not permanent", she sniffs.
Undaunted, the guy explains how he's loved her since he was a boy and timidly asks if she wouldn't mind signing the picture (he wanted to ask her to sign the leg but sensed it might go too far).
"Absolutely not. Go away". she sniffs, again.
Bodyguard shrugs a sincere apology....he thought she would comply. Guy is crushed, thanks her anyway, then slinks away.
Angela Lansbury?
ReplyDelete"Angela Lansbury takes home the prize, though, for most acting Emmy nominations without ever winning. She's been nominated 17 times, 12 of which were for outstanding lead actress in her drama series "Murder, She Wrote."
ReplyDeleteOh, a Nice Guy™ get's "crushed" for exhibiting creepily stalker-ish behavior.
ReplyDeleteEnty's viewpoint becomes a bit clearer.
Sounds like a winner Montana--and I don't blame her for blowing him off one bit.
ReplyDeleteTo clarify - this guy sounds like a creepy lunatic stalker and I don't blame our multi-nominee for "sniffing" in his general direction.
ReplyDeleteWhat's next, he slices off the tattoo & sends it to her?
Creeper's on twitter, tattoo is weird.
ReplyDeleteGasp!
ReplyDeleteEnty must've read our comments about previous EGOT nominees, note his/her/their usage of the term "which is keeping a technically EGOT out of her hands."
Agree with the Angela Lansbury guess.
ReplyDeleteLove Angela. Saw her many moons ago in MAME. She was fabulous.
ReplyDeleteEnty is stalking us?
ReplyDeleteGASP! I wonder if Enty read MY comment???? This is like when I met one of the actors who portrayed one of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles!!!!!
ReplyDeleteThat's a bizarre response. There's nothing creepy or stalker-ish here whatsoever. You have some pretty weird visceral reactions to harmless people, Kno. Stay at home, 'kay?
ReplyDeleteAnybody else find it hilarious that Enty WILL identify the actress as someone who can sing, act and dance, but he REFUSES to call her a "triple threat"? Like s/he doesn't read the comments and know for a fact how stupid s/he is.
ReplyDeleteIf THIS was the tat, I really can't fault her! http://bit.ly/1UOexwr
ReplyDelete(For those who don't want to copy/paste the link, it's Angela's face and it says MURDER--not 'murder she wrote. just murder. all caps--underneath.)
Worse @Guesser and @LaBomba!
ReplyDeleteHe has tattoos of us inked on his very portly belly! Dun-dun-dun ...
:P
Having the face of a celebrity tattooed on your body is both creepy and stalker-ish. Seeking out that celebrity to show it to her is even more creepy and stalker-ish.
ReplyDeleteHe may be harmless but he's definitely weird and you can't be too careful.
Please look closely at the tattoo. I think Angela Lansbury hated it because it is INCREDIBLY ugly! Imagine if somebody drew a portrait of you and made it as hideous as possible, along with permanent and circulated on the internet. Seeing that tattoo must have really hurt...
ReplyDelete@lilphantom Thank you for sharing the link!
Pretty la-de-da behavior from the same woman who allowed her then-13-year old daughter to take off and travel with Charlie Manson and his first couple of "Manson girls" in their black bus. Complete with note signed by her, authorizing Didi's travels under the tutelage of "Mr. Manson's ministry". Had him to her home, thought he was a great guy.
ReplyDeleteBut she snubs a poor fanboy-with-a-tattoo...
