Blind Item #12

All the answers this week to the blind items are people who have never previously been an answer to a blind in the past decade.

For the first six months this B- list mostly television actress from a hit network show started auditioning for roles, she used her mother's last name to try and get work. She got absolutely nowhere. So much for making it on her own. The second she started using the last name of her foreign born permanent A+ list performer she landed a job and has never looked back.

    Hmmm could this be that chick who I just recently found out is Baryshnikov's daughter, Anna Baryshnikov from Superior Donuts?

    I think the point here is that ONLY her father is famous. Her use of her mother's obscure name was a brief effort to "make it on her own" that didn’t work. Guessing actresses with famous/recognizable mothers is not the way to solve this.

    Maybe it's not her father. Maybe she just took a last name from a foreign famous performer. Still thinking...

    Anna's mom is former ballet star Lisa Rinehart (sic) Not sure how many casting agents keep a running tab on former ballet dancers. Might be why she had to use her father's name. Everyone knows who HE is!

  12. Yep, I reckon this is correct. 'A-list performer' is quite specifically not an actor, musician or comic.

    Former ballet dancers who are too narcissistic and/or histrionic to bear having to spend another day as just one of the corps...

    Frank Doubleday isn't foreign born (unless Norwich, CT just became a foreign country).
