Blind Items Revealed #23

July 7, 2016

Do people still wrap their sofas in those plastic sofa covers? The one that Ray’s mom had in Everyone Loves Raymond. My grandmother did the same thing. Anyway, I have not seen one live in person in years. Apparently this A list mostly movie actress covers her couches and all her furniture in them. I would understand if it was an allergy thing or she didn’t want her pets on there, but she does it, because she is just strange. Eccentric? That is probably the better term.

It is like she is preserving the furniture for a museum. If it only stopped at the living room, you could probably excuse it as an aberration, but she has fitted covers for the inside of toilets and despite that changes the toilet seats monthly. You are probably thinking to yourself this multiple Academy Award winner/nominee just has a germ thing. That is what I thought too, but she does not really clean all that much and that her kitchen is especially dirty. Our actress only uses sets of dishes once. Nice dishes too. The dirty dishes are stacked everywhere, including sitting on the floor. When it gets to the point she can’t get to the refrigerator, she has a cleaning crew come in and remove all the dishes and clean everywhere in the kitchen and she starts piling up all over again. You know how a lot of homes back in the day had the formal living room no one ever used. It just sat there for guests but no guests had ever used it either. Our actress has multiple bedrooms and a den at her home that are in just such a condition. No one can ever remember seeing the furniture so much as move an inch. Even though there are guest bedrooms and beds, no one has ever used them. Guests from out of town are put up in a hotel. One of the three bathrooms also is in this pristine state. I wonder if she thinks of it as a movie set. Something that isn’t real. The person I spoke to didn’t know anyone who has actually asked her why she lives like that, so we can only guess.

Was she maybe raised by her grandparents? These sound like behaviors of an older woman. I had some hang up well into my 20's that I realized I did get from my mother.

NOBODY NAILED IT

Well, she does appear to have books on every surface, but then, so do I. Her kitchen looked clean. Thanks, French girl!

It sounded like a grossly exaggerated blind in the first place. People that know her would probably have read it and then the reveal and said bullshit.

Sadie said...

Weren't her parents irresponsible hippies and her Granny raised her? She's always talking about her Granny who has the hots for Matthew McConaughey.

I think Jessica grew up very poor and she's probably just keeping stuff in mint condition in case she ever has to sell it off again. Probably wise.

She seems like a future hoarder. One day we will find her at 56 years old living in some Grey Gardens type situation with 46 cats.

It would take a lot to fill that kitchen with dishes. Agreed, it sounds like a gross exaggeration. Something someone said offhand once as a joke.

Shar said...

I believe it. She gives off odd vibes. Do you really think she would allow her home to be photographed in that condition? Off course it would be prepped for pics.

Two things about women who are like this:

Overtly clean? "Runaway!"
Overtly dirty? "Runaway!"

I don't understood the plastic on furniture: it just shows the dust more that way.

A talented person with OCD? never heard of such a person before. She is idiosyncratic, so what?
