Blind Items Revealed

July 12, 2013

This former A+ list mostly television actress who is now a C+ with high name recognition reached her peak on the list way back in the day when she was a teen on a very very hit network television show. Of course by then, she says she had already lost her virginity. She says she was 12. Her mom already had put her on birth control because she knew that guys would be all over her daughter on the set.

Melissa Gilbert

Oh Half Pint. :(

Leave Laura Ingalls alone!

hairydawg said...

her??

Meanie Rhysie said...

Ah, the 70s... ;)

timebob said...

Please tell me Pa didn't hit it first

Bacon Ranch said...

One of the interviews I read with her years ago mentioned her dating Rob Lowe and how brutal the media was when they talked to her. She said one question she was asked that stuck out in her mind was "How does it feel to date a guy much prettier than you?" or something like that.

Yikes.

Seven of Eleven said...

Michael was a class A a*hole but there were no pedo allegations on set, thank goodness.

Unknown said...

She seems so opposite from her sister. I really like Sarah. I bet they don't get along.

Kelly said...

I do remember that she named one of her boys Landon though, so they obviously were tight.

VIPblonde said...

@Kate got it right with the first guess! Great job!!

Unknown said...

Do you like Entys new list of regulations @VIP?! You don't seem like a gal to follow by the rules...

auntliddy said...

Actually sara and melissa get along great. If this is true, kind of explains her problems in life- drinking, 3 marriages, and most astonishing, her marriage to Busfield, an accused abuser of women.

NaughtyNurse said...

Awww…not Laura!

Steampunk Jazz said...

Ok...I did not know Sara and Melissa were related, let alone sisters.
It never occurred to me
Nope.
Never in a million years

Kelly said...

Not that it matters, but Sara was adopted.

VIPblonde said...

@Derek I didn't bother to read them because I knew it would be a bunch of BS. Did I miss anything important?

timebob said...

actually @renoblondee you have it backwards.

Melissa and her brother Jonathan were adopted. Those are the Gilberts.

Sara was born to her mother and 2nd husband. Sara changed her name to Gilbert to help her in the industry.

What the hell is wrong with people?! This is what she looked like at 11: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Little_House_on_the_Prairie_Melissa_Gilbert_1975_Crop_1.jpg

More Enty support for underaged victims

Kristin Wigs said...

VIP, I read the rules so you don't have to. Basically, from here on out the answer to every blind is "Alyssa Milano."

Just keep going with that and you'll keep winning. You're welcome.

VIPblonde said...

@Kristin I thought Enty's decoder ring said:
All blinds about an actress sleeping with a married man = January Jones

All blinds about an actress being a bad and/or stressed out mom = Selma Blair

All blinds about cheating husbands = Robin Thicke

And all blinds about both being gay and being a violent woman beater = Bradley Cooper

Unknown said...

yes @VIP in the 3rd paragraph he states that Derek Harveys guesses are ALWAYS right. No matter what ;0

Kristin Wigs said...

*grabs monocle. unfurls ancient Enty scroll*

Nope. Just keep guessing "Milano." Trust me. Would I steer you wrong? ;)

Kristin Wigs said...

D-- don't forget to tell her how we'll be split into teams for the quarterly knock-out phase.

TalksTooMuch said...

This is why I just do colour commentary, shite is complicated

Kristin Wigs said...

Don't worry, TTM. I think @Sugar is your team lead. What could possibly go wrong?

Good Mom Pimp Points. Don't want yer meal ticket getting knocked up and losing work.

Lo Key says stop with the censorship already! said...

Since TTM has the colo(u)r commentary position locked, I'll stick with sideline reporting.

Brenda L said...

@VIP - and everything left over is Ben Affleck ;-)

rajahcat said...

12 is ridiculously early for birth control for a girl.....

8====D KermitGossnellKnobjob said...

Isn't she the lesbian who is in Big Bang (too lazy to google)? To be a lesbian, she likes cock too much.

Fiona said...

remember the story enty posted the other day about the model who went public with the disgusting story about Terry Richardson?

She's apparently Melissa Gilbert's stepson's girlfriend. MG is all over twitter helping the anti-TR campaign go viral.

Fiona said...

Melissa Gilbert's sister Sara Gilbert was on Roseanne, now on The View, I think. Melissa was adopted, then her parents had a biological child, Sara. She's a lesbian.

Fiona said...

Correction, Sara Gilbert is on The Talk.

Meg said...

Strange, this totally contradicts what she says in her autobiography. She claimed that she hadn't even had a real kiss yet when as a teen she was playing love-struck Laura opposite an adult actor playing Almanzo, and she found it terribly awkward. Pick a story and stick to it, Melissa!

Erik said...

So who were these guys who were all over her? Why not out them?

Kelly said...

That article had nothing to do with Little House. She said she was abused as a little girl by a family member.

Kimba said...

"Hold the horses Pa!" - as a confessed Little House fan, and a Melissa Gilbert super fan, just when you think you know your girl........Sarah is her sister! Adopted or not, SISTER? I like Sarah, but, why didn't I know this?
Flip my bonnet up!
For these quasi expert opions of mine, I don't believe Enties! Even for the 70's when sexuality and youth sex, plus drugs seemed blurred amoung adults and the youth around HW, I don't see Melissa being some Lolita.
back to my shock......
KS, I'll go read the article,....again, tho, it's not what I've read about the series or their bios....off to Huffpost...(can't stand that site anymore, too many ads and false subtexts)

Fiona said...

She married Timothy Busfield a year ago. I first noticed him in the 1980's series "ThirtySomething" which I LOVED. He's a hella good actor. One of those journeymen character actors who can do everything, and can disappear into a role rather than being "larger than life" like some stars.

MadLyb said...

It looks like the mom turned her head the other way. Parents of child stars are worse than pimps. >:(

Eros said...

Wow. 12? Way too young. I feel sad for her.

Rhody said...

Okay, this is when I have to come clean with the fact that I read MG's autobiography. She was VERY open about her life (please stop talking about Rob Lowe!). She said her first kiss was actually the one they filmed of her and her TV husband when she was like 15, but that she was de-flowered soon after by a guy she did a made for TV movie with. So maybe her mother put her on the pill (which she didn't mention), but she didn't do the deed at 12.

DH said...

And Willie Olsen was played by the other Gilbert sibling. :-)
