Blind Item #5 - +- / A Dancing Boy Blind Item
This one is a certain boy wizard and his one-time co-star. The breakout part was on a place-named drama.
Here it is:
Some of his friends are worried about this A list child actor turned adult actor, known mostly for movies. Because of his own abuse, no doubt, he's been acting out, stripping and dancing naked at parties in LA, New York, and the capital city of his native country. (Just think of that one role in a different medium.) Hosts know now to keep the curtains drawn because of the paps, and have instituted a two drink limit for him.
Who told me? This other actor, who is his peer and one time co-star. (He reached me through my agent, who my forthcoming director helped me to sign with. A certain novelist/screenwriter played a role too - they're all with this one agency - as he's likely to present the forward in "the Dancing Boy: A Hollywood Story" [it's kind of in the form of a book, with front matter, the body, and end matter]. Given our parallel life experiences - growing up in the same world, basically, and attending rival schools and similar colleges [he had a sometimes abusive father too], not to mention writing about sometimes similar themes [albeit in a different way] - he's given me a nickname: **** Jr.)
He contacted me because of similar experiences we had. Interesting not just the semi-nudity of his big role in this independent drama, but the fact that his character seems actually to want what happens to him. Both actors are 80s born.
The anonymized names are the parts they played in their breakout roles.
