I Love Blind Items ! #4

[kokobombon]

I remember people saying it was Jen back when the blind came out, can´t remember if people said anything about who the guy might be... John Mayer?

 

[MyNameIs]

But what was the last thing Hilary pimped out?

She's been 'writing' those books which I guess sell pretty well.

Also, what about that feud with Faye Dunaway? Is the remake of Bonnie and Clyde even being made anymore?

 

[Decalion]

John Mayer "barely, barely matters" while Aniston is "a big deal"? I certainly hope that she isn't writing that BI about them, as that's 100% bull given he's a supremely talented musician and Aniston is a mediocre actress coasting on her one-note appeal who will be irrelevant by age 50, when casting her in these manufactured rom-coms no longer makes sense. She's rich, but her work won't be remembered like John's.

 

[dajrekshn]

no, i think that the other guy is the one who's courtney's co-star in that show of hers - josh hopkins or something like that?

 

[kobro22]

^Exactly right, he was some unknown bit player, who had a small role on Cox's show.

Yeah LAiney basically gave some hints on her site that the blind is Aniston.

 

[Label Basher]

she did - girl without girlfriends who was rude in the bathroom is Scarlett

I KNEW it wasn't January but I didn't see it being Scarlett either

I am sorry but the tampon referance is talking about terry Richardson not Jen....

Terry Richardson Loves Tampons

Uncle Terry was feeling frisky that day! I told him I had my period so I wanted to keep my underwear on, and he asked me to take my tampon out for him to play with. “I love tampons!” he said, in that psychotically upbeat way that temporarily convinces so many girls that what’s fun for Uncle Terry is fun for them. (I can just imagine him chirping, “Why don’t you wear these fairy wings while I **** you in the ***? Wouldn’t that be like, so fun?” to some attenuated girl fresh off the boat from Eastern Europe. Either the man’s totally delusional, or he gets off on the fact that many of these things are not, in fact, very much fun for the girls.) I politely declined his offer to make tea out of my bloody **** plug. It was then that he decided to just get naked.

^no, the tampon reference is about this blind:

"So much so that the first time they had sex, at a friend’s place, she was so horny and had to have him so badly that it didn’t matter that she was on her period. She pulled her tampon out on the spot, tossed it aside cavalierly, and invited him in."

Lawd.....I would let you guys handle this one.

US Weekly had a story up about Josh bragging about screwing Jen right after Lainey did that blind item. He looks like an overgrown frat boy.

 

[Label Basher]

^ I thought the guy in the Jen BI was a nobody. Maybe that guy who sold his story to US weekly about them shagging.

While the Jen BI is gross Jen should be able to shag whoever she wants as long as it doesn't hurt anyone. I'm glad she got rid of John Mayer. He was good when he first came out but now he's just a douche and only famous for slagging off people. He is mediocre and won't be remembered when I'm a Granny whereas Friends will still be playing on telly like shows from the 70s are played now.

 

[Nemova]

^No doubt about that last part of your sentence. 'Friends' is a classic and a fine example of great TV writing, and should be revered and referenced to for decades to come. I'm not sure the same goes for John Mayer.

I beg to differ. John Mayer's music is bland and in no way important in musical history. He may be quite a talented guitarist, but he poorly misuses his talent by applying it to mediocre, forgettable music. I agree that Jen isn't particularly talented when compared to the greats of film, but she does have some comedic, charismatic ability. I also agree that her career won't fare so well once she ages because her talent can't carry her alone. I think both may have celebrity status and wealth but neither of their work matters in the grand scheme of things. It will be the celebrity and personal lives of both Jen and John that people remember in years to come not their middling work (unless they miraculously improve their games).

Nope. Not only is John's pop music very accomplished (I liked "No Such Thing" immediately upon hearing it, as well as the rest of his debut including "Your Body is a Wonderland", the remainder of his discography (see John Mayer Trio and Continuum) is an original spin on developing a blues-pop hybrid. I'd take his "Where The Light Is" concert alone over everything Aniston has done combined:

And not only is John a talented musician, but he is a better comedian and more interesting personality than Aniston, as watching any of his interviews, "John Mayer has a TV Show", or this can attest:

Comparing Aniston to Mayer favorably is an absolute joke. She should be glad the dude has questionable taste in women.

 

[Decalion]

And, by the way, Friends is third-rate television, a predictable and unimaginative sitcom not even worthy to lick the boots of a fellow comedy like Seinfeld.

 

[Harumi]

^I agree with you about Friends. I never understood the success of that cliché, witless show. First rate television comedy would be Arrested Development, or Curb your Enthisiasm. Even the Fresh Prince was better than Friends, which is on par with Big Bang Theory, except without the hilarity of Sheldon.

That said, I am laughing very hard at your attempt to argue that Meyer produces anything but derivative bubble-pop. His music is so bland. Your Body is Wonderland is an utterly mediocre cheese-fest that is definitely a good representative of John's body of work.
As for his guitar skills, well, he has some abilities but nothing revolutionary. Stevie Ray Vaughan is a talented guitarist; John Meyer is a strummer in comparison.

OT, a musical blind from Buzfoto:

Today, a musician, who is known for his wonderful lyrics he writes for his band and for other groups. Guess what? He doesn’t write his own lyrics. His secret-gay-sometimes-lover does. The two are best friends and the real lyricist prefers anonymity, so the relationship works out well for both.

This famous news broadcaster, has now fired one of his staff members after the staff member witnessed the newscaster trying to pay for sex in New York City. We’re not sure what his wife would say about it, but maybe we’ll see a tweet about it?

And from the National Enquirer:

WHICH married-with-kids A-list actor/director/ producer is back to his hard-partying ways with ******* and hookers? The diminutive star’s sweet, blonde, talented actress wife doesn't have a clue!

 

[kokobombon]

The thing about Friends is that it was a worldwide fenomenon and still runs on TV everywhere. On the other hand John is not widely famous, not even as famous as Jen.

Derivative of what? All I'm seeing is the typical haughty dismissal of pop music as if this is some badge of profundity; as far his sound goes, I'm taken by it, and would be more inclined to direct my contempt toward musicians with airs of being poets whose ability to compose a hook, chorus, bridge, takes a backseat to fifth-rate lyricism and a completely defective sense of how to structure a song or even how to sing or play instruments with high competency (many rock musicians commonly respected fall into this pit). And while I'll unabashedly declare my appreciation for John's pop beginnings, no, Your Body is a Wonderland is not representative of John's body of work, as a cursory listen to Continuum would have shown you. If this is mere strumming, then no great guitarist has ever existed on earth.

Justin Bieber and Miley Cyrus are also more famous worldwide than Mayer. What exactly is that evidence of?

 

[Harumi]

^^Lol, OK. I wasn't aware disliking John Meyer was a symptom of elitism.

For the record, I love pop. Michael Jackson was probably the most talented artist of the 20th century and some of his best work was in the pop genre.
We're good though. I'll keep thinking Meyer is crap, and you can keep thinking whatever you like.
