Blind Item #10
This actress is probably A- list. All of you know her. Her company is tanking badly right now. Since the peak, it has dropped roughly 70% in value. People were just looking for a quick buck and treated it like a piggy bank.

Goop?
ReplyDeleteMaybe Jessica Alba?
ReplyDeleteBlake?
ReplyDeletenah Blake lost hers years ago.
ReplyDeleteSomeone selling shit to fools.
ReplyDeleteDrew Barrymore's cosmetic company?
ReplyDeleteFabletics? Kate Hudson?
ReplyDeleteI'm going to go with Alba. Goop, sadly, is higher than A-.
ReplyDeleteGoop hasn't had a hit movie in a long time so the A- is justified. Kind, even. She's all about her company now so I don't think it's her.
ReplyDeleteI'm with the fabletics guess. Typical PE backing, open a ton of stores, pull the equity out. bankruptcy in 5 years.
ReplyDeleteSandra Bollock.
ReplyDeleteGarner and her baby food
ReplyDeleteGoop hasn't had a hit in years? She did just fine with Marvel. One part of a big ensemble, and not the biggest part, but definitely hit movies. I suspect that's about all she wants to work in films anymore - a little here, a little there.
ReplyDeleteSounds like the Honest Company. "HER company".
ReplyDeleteFabletics is still opening new stores.

What is the science behind The Goop Lab's claims?

Goop actually comes from what Harvey used to leave in her hair.
ReplyDeleteNOT Alba - that company is run by a shit ton of experienced and qualified executives.
ReplyDeleteFabletics is a better guess, Goop is a vanity project and seems to make money.
Not sure when Fabletics "peaked" though, seems to me that never occurred
The "Honest Company" may sell some dubiously "honest" products but it is a ginormous financially stable company that makes a shit ton of products selling to the mass market.
ReplyDeleteI am in a similar industry and I have never heard them as anything other than legit.
She's been in a hit or two recently but she didn't carry them. Ensemble pieces.
ReplyDeleteA- only because of that Oscar that she shouldn't have won but for nepotism.
Fabletics peaked when Hudson was in all those commercials. Totally jumped the shark when she was replaced with Lovato who they had to shoot from wonky angles with lame tricks like an arm over her gunt and the like. Also, it is a crap subscription service, designed to rope in rubes w/ forgotten rebills.
ReplyDeleteI totally don't get Alba. She was 'discovered' by James Cameron and co for DARK ANGEL and was a horrific actress. She was pretty to look at, unique exotic (such a mix you couldn't peg her) but she can't act her way out of a paper bag and yet kept getting roles off her looks. Ugh. Boring. Someone with a career and riches handed to them. At least with models, we applaud the bone structure and body in PICTURES. They are what they are. Alba was handed a tv and film career etc for looking like she looked when she had ZERO aptitude or talent for it. Ditto goes for having a 'vision' and brand you just smile big for and then real professionals do all the work and make you a further fortune.
ReplyDeleteAlba's company has had numerous lawsuits because its not nearly as ethical as it claims and had to recall products for mold and contamination
ReplyDeleteReese?
ReplyDeleteYou hate all women or solely white women?
ReplyDeleteI thought ZZZ was female.
ReplyDeleteGen-Z aka ZZZed is a racist. Only idea morning through night is skin color.
ReplyDeleteGwyneth sold her company sometime ago. I think she is a consultant for it now.
ReplyDeletehow about Kristen bell and hello bello?
ReplyDeleteWhat about Beyoncé and her gratuitous box of clothing give aways…. better than - and more sought after - than the Oscar goodie bags. I've only heard of the giveaways... nobody purchasing it and its not showing up on anyone in paps pics.
ReplyDeleteWtf are you talking about? IvyPark is doing very well
Deletewhoops, sorry, Bey is not an actress... am NOT considering voice work for Lion King.... maybe her lip syncing? lol
ReplyDeleteFabletics was pieces of crap. Tore easily and not durable. Alba is man's idea of an actress. Not very talented but very pretty and had lots of sex appeal. Friends like Honest and Goop junk.
ReplyDeletesarah jessica parker and her shoe company?
ReplyDeleteDidn't ScarJo have a popcorn business over in France? What happened with that?
ReplyDeleteLL might have it with Reese and Draper James. The line "All of you know her" might have been a huge clue, lol! Anyway, it popped back into my head hours later while paying bills.
ReplyDeleteAlba. Well she didn't own that big a slice to begin with. But the real exec's there bailed a while back. The VC firm is milking it until they can unload it. They definitely lost their early momentum. Even Target booted them to the curb.
