Today's Blind Items - The End Of A Brand

For years and years, this foreign born A+ list mostly movie actor has worked hard on his public brand. He wants you to believe he is a happy, always in a good mood, loving husband and doting father. Yes, there have always been those who talk about him being closeted, but the checkout line gossip readers see none of that. They just see covers of magazines reinforcing his good looks and the message his people have been spewing out to the masses. They see him in box office hits and always willing to go on a show to promote his latest movie however they want him to do it. He can seemingly do it all.

Those days though are coming to an end. He knows they are. He knows his brand is about to be torn to shreds. There are too many reporters circling his disgraced director friend. Those reporters have not only heard the stories of what the director made young men do to get parts in movies, but also our actor. As he has grown to A+ list, he has used that power to coerce young men into sleeping with him in exchange for work on whatever project he is on. Often there will be a half dozen men working on one of his movies that got there because they had sex with out actor.

Our actor has been at the same parties as the disgraced director. His circle of friends is the same. Our actor is just much better at selling that image you see on the cover of tabloids. His image has always been the antithesis of what he is really like when it comes to his abuse of power. He likes to say it is all in good fun. Is t good fun though when you give them an ultimatum? Sex or you don't get the job. He doesn't care if they say no. He will find someone who says yes. Meanwhile, he will tell his producer friend and his director friend and all his other friends in the same circle that the guy who said no, should probably think about waiting tables for a living and not acting. But yeah our actor is a real role model huh.
