Blind Item #12

This foreign born A list mostly movie actress who is an Academy Award winner says that when she landed her first few decent roles she had to sleep with the directors to get the parts. She says she would still do it now if it got her the role she wanted. She says it is the reason she got two big roles last year that were supposed to go to actresses much younger than her.

    1. That's who I was thinking. Her acting skills are mediocre, in my opinion

  4. Kate Winslet? Maybe she was being facetious since she was married to Sam Mendes, who directed her in Revolutionary Road.

  5. Charlize would have to sleep with someone...Cate and Kate would not.

  7. Kentucky isn't considered foreign, though sometimes it should be.

  8. Are the casting couch participants expected to act like they like it?
    Can they just lay there and wait for it to be over?

  10. Sharper Teeth - in this case it sounds like she is using it to get parts so she probably would put on a show.

  11. Says she didn't mind and would do it again but when no one wants to sleep with her anymore she'll claim she was sexually harassed.

  14. Foreign Born Oscar Winners I didn't see mentioned here: Penelope Cruz and Rachel Weisz (both Supporting)--are they A list? Pretty close, if not.

    Feel like Charlize's recent roles have been kickass and there's a limited amount of actresses who can do that credibly. Kate Winslet made a movie with Woody Allen, does that mean anything, maybe?

    1. Winslet is too old for Woody. He likes little girls. I think this is Charlize.

      Regardless of whether they ageee to it, requiring someone to perform sexual favors for a work is sexual harrasment.

  15. Charlize was famous in Italy before making it in Hollywood for commercials. There was one where she was out drinking martini in a knit dress and a thread got stuck in the chair as she is walking away and the dress unravels.

    In italy, at least at that time, you definitely wouldnt get those kind of gigs without sleeping with someone. She also did a lot of gratuitous nude scenes in her early movies, so I can totally see this being her, she doesnt seem to have many hang ups with her body.

  16. Charlize is credited as producer for everything in last 2 years so, unless she slept with herself...this isn’t her.
    Not saying she didn’t couch a lot in beginning...just not this time.

    ReplyDelete
  17. These producers couch but it's the audience who gets f*cked.

  18. Jlaw IS YOUNG herself so what roles did she get that were meant to go to even YOUNGER actresses. Don't buy it. They thought she was too young FOR that movie with Bradley Cooper. This has to be someone older. JLAW may not be averse to the casting couch but don't think her AGE is an issue. her work just might go to OTHER actors.

  19. Sounds like Sienna Miller - but Academy Award winner??? Guffaw!

  20. JLaw, while a total coucher, is not foreign born.

  23. The blind indicates she's a winner not a winner/nominee So it's a foreign born actress who's won each time or the only time she was nominated. That excludes Theron,Mitten, Winslet, Blanchett, and Cruz. It must be Rachel Weiss or Marion Cottilard.

  24. Could be a number of actresses Halle Berry slept with Spike Lee to get her first big break in Jungle Fever. People will say that Berry and Lee were dating but come on. The interesting thing about this METOO movement is no mainstream media DARES to publish articles about women who DO SLEEP their way to the top! Wonder why? People can argue it is consensual BUT the casting couch is NEVER going to go away. Because there are women in Hollywood who kNOW if they sleep with the director they will get the big film roles. I don't think it is fair how unbalanced it is. These actresses are not defenceless little victims. Even Pam Anderson called out these women in Hollywood for their hypocrisy.

  25. charlize theron, won for Monster, shes been getting more roles (mad max, tully, etc), born in south africa, probably got the mad max role that would have gone to a younger actress

  26. Sharper Teeth, of course they’re expected to act as if they like it. They’re actresses.

    In Italy, It is one of the most famous commercials of all time, and definitely the 90s

  33. I lived in Italy in the 90s and I never of her before she did that movie with Al Pacino

  34. Mirren because she fits and she just won a prize yesterday about her whole career

  35. Looks like that CT ad in Italy is from 1993, before her first credited film role.

    CT was also the face of Dior, which carries all kind of occult "white goddess" symbolism. There's tons of weird stuff going on with the women they choose, the commercials they shoot, etc.
