I Love Blind Items ! #5 *Absolutely no drug or weight blind items and talk allowed*

[dajrekshn]

the only bigger bomb she had was Cowboys and Aliens and i don't think Craig falls into B-list category? tho, now that i think i don't think he's A-list either, no? maybe after TGWTDT is released. the other possible B-list might be Jason Bateman - she did Change up with him, but i don't think that movie bombed (didn't check it tho).

 

[mikel]

Daniel Craig aka James Bond? I don't think he falls into B-list category.

 

[kokobombon]

^you think he´s A then? I somehow can´t picture him yet as A list... like Daj said, maybe after TGWTD.

 

[mikel]

Perhaps I'm being too lenient.

 

[kokobombon]

I think we need a list with all the atributes an A list has to have pinned in the beginning of the thread cause it can get confusing, can´t it? LOL

 

[Scrantonicity]

yeah, but even then it's tough, cause it varies from site to site and based on a bloggers personal bias, tbh.

 

[cheepmunk]

I remember reading somewhere that it used to be that A list meant (for actors) being big enough that your name alone attached to a project would be enough to make it happen, but that criterion has pretty much fallen by the wayside. I think these days it might just mean "99.9% of people on the street, when stopped and told an actor's name, would know who that person is and be able to name at least one role or movie." But I don't know. It's really vague.

I think bloggers also like to throw in the wrong rating to make blind items either more salacious or more obscure, depending on whether they need more hits or they're really afraid of getting sued.

 

[Child_in_time]

To me, Daniel Craig is B+. He's big, he's a Bond, but still not everybody knows him. His name itself does not generate huge amounts of money/audience like an A-lister's would.

 

[kokobombon]

I think that an A lister also needs major awards to be considered that...?

 

[dajrekshn]

yup, i think that once you're an Oscar winner you're set as an A-lister for at least next 10 years (look at Reese W.).

 

[Caroliiine]

You don't need major awards to be an A-lister. If you can carry a movie to financial success, that is good enough. Brad Pitt is A-list and he's never won anything substantial except a Golden Globe 15 years ago (and of the big awards, GG is least respected because the HPFA votes are easily bought, e.g. Sharon Stone & the Coach watches, Leonardo DiCaprio & the Blu-ray players).

yeah, i was just referring to how the awards affect your status when it comes to "lists". as you said, Brad Pitt is a great example how you don't need those, but then again, he's one of the rare ones IMO.

Yeah usually the A-listers are the ones that win the awards. Then again, Amy Adams now has an Oscar but I would not consider her A-list yet... I don't think she's quite there in terms of selling magazines or getting a film green-lit. And then you have Will Smith, who is probably the biggest movie star at the moment (maybe tied with Johnny Depp) who has only ever won MTV movie awards.

Um...what? When did Amy Adams get an Oscar?

 

[dajrekshn]

she didn't. i thought she got one for Doubt, but she didn't.

new BI from Lainey, it's not RDJ, not Fassbender

Would you still love him if you knew that he stomps around the set, holding up production, when his tea is brought to him at not the right temperature? Would you still love him if you found out he delayed filming, and an entire crew, for several hours, because he HAD TO HAVE HIS LUNCH from a place that was off site so they had to drive there to get it and come back, only it was missing an ingredient and he sent it back? Would you still love him if he refused to report to set after visiting wardrobe and found out someone else had been joking around with his hat and he insisted it wasn't sitting right on his head anymore?

 

[Caroliiine]

Sorry, got her confused with Melissa Leo. They were both nominated for the Fighter but Leo won. The point still stands though, Melissa is not really considered A-list either.

Which C-list actor – best-known for co-starring in a popular blockbuster comedy franchise and who now does mainly voice-over work – doesn’t accept his cross-dressing brother-in-law? The tiny funnyman wasn’t amused when his bride’s sibling showed up in a dress and heels to their wedding so they made him change into a suit and tie!

2.

This award-winning director from an action genre recently held a contest among several groups of interns. The contest involved the interns writing a screenplay which would be submitted to a group of Hollywood insiders. The best script would be turned into a film that he, himself would direct. After getting an overwhelming response from the interns, the director decided he had ‘no interest in reading that many scripts’ and scrapped the whole project, leaving the interns disappointed and scratching their heads why they never got a response.

People break up and get back together all the time. Sometimes it works out, sometimes it doesn’t.

Then there’s the case of these two good-looking people. They have both been on TV regularly, but in two very different roles. They were together. Then then broke up. Now they’re together again. Did they work things out? Is it true love after all? Nope. She’s pregnant. And, with all his other troubles, the thought of being a husband and a father is more than he can bear right now. But he’ll play along until he figures a way out of this.

No wonder he’s been such a jerk lately. Then again, scratch that “lately” part. He’s just a jerk. In fact, she has a reputation for being a b*tch, and he has a reputation for being an as*hle. So maybe they are perfect for each other.

What B list UK television actress from an all acting family said, “I came to this party for one reason only. To f**k Bradley Cooper.”

5.

What famous family is being torn apart by their differing views on homosexuality? The religious clan claims to be inclu*sive, but an openly gay member of the brood is feeling the heat from one particular relative who thinks she should go back into the closet! Who are they?

6.

While the members of this famous family certainly resemble each other, there is one family member with a unique physical characteristic that differentiates them from their more famous sibling/s. There have been rumblings about this for a long time, but it has finally been confirmed by parent to child: that the child is, in fact, the product of an affair one of their parents had long ago. The child did not take the news well, and really resents having been lied to all these years. Given that certain members of the family tend to selectively overshare, it will be interesting to see if this information is ever publicly revealed, and – if it is – how it will be spun.

This once A list, award-winning actor has dropped off the radar in the last few years. A source tells us he obsessively watches right-wing news and radio broadcasts like Glenn Beck, while stocking up on gold and weapons, preparing for ‘the end.’ His friends have tried to offer help, but he complains to our source that they are ‘nothing but Hollywood liberal socialists’ who have an agenda. His family and friends are worried as he’s becoming more extreme, and the source also claims he’s shelled out big bucks to install a bunker on his property.

9.

Which younger brother of an infamous socialite appears in a hardc*re gay s*x tape that’s making the rounds in the male modeling world?

10.

This A list television actor who does movies but would be a B in movies is not seen as much with his new girlfriend. Reason? He yelled at her at a dinner party in front of people and called her an idiot for her views and for not being informed.

11.

She might be incredibly beautiful, but this C/D list reality TV star is very insecure about her body. Her publicist only allows photos of her to run that have photoshopped her into a nearly perfect Barbie doll.

12.

This B- list television actress has been in this space before for some not so model behavior. She is on a hit show for this almost network and wants everyone in the world to think she is the perfect mom and girlfriend to her B list actor boyfriend who is also on a hit television show. Our actress has gone through a series of relationships with men and at the end she always makes it seem like the boyfriends were the awful ones and she was perfect. The realities? She sets aside time for sex with her boyfriends. They get three times a week but she only schedules it for 30 minutes. If you are late then that is your fault. When 30 minutes is up, she is up too. She considers it a necessity rather than fun. Oh, and don’t forget that pre and post sex shower. Food? She only eats four things. Seriously. Just four. Chicken, rice, Total and apples. Nothing else. No seasonings or spices. If you are with her when you eat, then she insists you eat the same thing too. One of the actresses on her show who is getting to be almost A list said that if given the opportunity she would slip a chocolate bar or pot into the homemaker’s food just so she could actually live a life for two minutes. Red carpet events? She tells her dates what to wear. Why do guys put up with it? Because she latches on to them and does not let go. They don’t have a choice. If you ask her out and she says yes, she will be texting and calling and doing drop ins before you can say boo. She does not let go and it is very tough to get her out of your life.

#2 – Her boyfriend

This former A list movie actor who now is lucky to find work was a big sex symbol back in the 80′s and 90′s. At a recent event he ditched his date to have sex in the bathroom with an old flame who has risen to C list status as the host of a reality show.

Long before Karrine Steffans took on her “Superhead” moniker this male R&B singer earned a reputation in Hollyweird for wetting more than just whistles.

Said singer’s career was pretty hot in the’90′s but not nearly as blazing as his jaw work… Insiders say ol’ boy made the knees of many a baller shake, including an NBA star who suited up for the Lakers and at least one A-list Hollyweird actor.

Can you guess the O.G. “male Superhead”?
