Daily Mirror Blind Item

Which clean-cut former child star is in fact a secret caner? The celeb in question only goes to showbiz events to siphon up all the free booze.

Had to look that one up: caner

Had to look it up, too, DN.
Former child star. Thinking someone older who's a lush.

Could it possibly be Jamie Bell (he played Billy Elliot)? Or how about Daniel Radcliffe - he was a child star, not that he's exactly "old" now?

Mel said...

I hope it's not Brooke Shields, she doesn't look like a big drinker to me.

This BV's a bit broad, there are loads of former child stars out there. 'Clean cut' probably means a male though.

Okay, maybe I'm a moron, but what in the hell is a "caner"?

Jolara said...

Yeah, what denis said! LOL. I don't know either, nor have I ever heard the term "caner" before.

My guess, The kid from Malcolm in the Middle came to my mind first. Can't remember his name.

hey guys - remember, this is the Daily Mirror, a Brit paper, so likely they are talking about someone British, not American.

Also, dn linked to "caner" in case anyone is interested.

caner= lush, drunk, the Hoff.

Hmmmm... the only thing I can think of is Jonathan Lipnicki, whom Ent just posted an event pic of yesterday. I realize he's American, but Jerry Maguire and Stewart Little (b/c of Hugh Laurie) were pretty big in the UK, too, so it could be about him?

Other than that, I got nothing. I don't think the DM would refer to any of the HP kids as former child stars, because they're all still technically children/playing teens/in the series that gave them the label. I don't think you qualify for the title 'former' until you're in your 20s+ and you've NOT been playing child/teen roles for a while.

dnfrommn has a link to the word. "Caner" = pothead

I was thinking Emma Watson.

What about Haley Joel Osment? Didn't he get busted for a DUI?

J said...

nah caner should be read as the other definition from dnfrommn caner= lush, out partying all the time, bit of a lush at home.
