Blind Items Revealed #11 - Anniversary Month

November 21, 2006

Let me preface this post, by saying that if this story ever comes out, it would blow the music world up and shake it to its core..This would put the Milli Vanilli scandal and Ashlee Simpson SNL situation so far down the ladder it would be crazy..

Towards the end of last year I had a woman come into my office and she began to explain what she had done and had been doing for several years and it was one of the very few times that I just could not believe what I was hearing..I know the music industry inside and out, and I had never heard of something so extensive and pervasive as this..

This woman (S) came into my office because the payments she had been receiving had stopped and she wanted to either get the money that was owed to her, or expose what she had been doing to the light of day..

S is a sessions/studio/backup singer and is very good..Prior to her involvement in what I am going to describe, she made a very good living singing on commercials and being a backup singer for groups and other solo acts, etc..Like I said she is very good, but she does not really have that “look” which would make her a star, so record companies did not put her out front, but just used her talents..

In late 2000, a man came to her one day and said he needed someone to record some demos because he had written a lot of songs, but wanted a demo to shop the songs to singers and record labels..This is not unusual at all and she had done this type of work before and it paid pretty well so she agreed. What was unusual about her recording of the demos was how much work was put into the actual recordings..It was extensive..Generally there is not much time put into the recordings because you never really know if the song will even sell, and the money spent on recording could be put to better uses..These demos she was recording were actually being treated as if they were going to be released on a CD or to radio..They even did some mixing which was REALLY unusual..

After a few weeks she had recorded about over a dozen songs and she went on her way and was really oblivious to anything else pertaining to it, UNTIL several months later she was in her car and heard her voice coming from the radio, only it was another singer being given credit..(We will call this other singer MV for Milli Vanilli) She could not believe what she was hearing and did not know whether to be excited to hear herself on the radio, confused about the credit given to another singer or just pissed off for the same reasons..

What she did do, was to call the man who had originally come to her and had her record the songs..The man agreed to meet her and gave her a substantial sum of money and promised to keep giving her money every month as long as she kept her mouth shut. MV was taking off..(MV has/had several Top 40 songs and CD's. They could have gone to #1 or languished in the 30's..I really cannot go into much more detail or else it would be too easy to discover) MV was everywhere..on television, radio, awards shows, commercials..EVERYWHERE..meanwhile, S continued to get money every month and kept her little secret to herself..The guy who picked S was VERY lucky..Most singers would have caused a fuss, but S has always been in the background and was resigned to the fact she always would be, and was very happy just taking the $$, and did not want that to stop..

About 9 months go by and S is called by the guy because MV is going on tour and they want S to record some extra mixes and such for the tour..She agrees and does not really do much, but money is money..

Fast forward another year or so and S stops receiving money and after a few months of missed payments, calls the guy who explains that they need S to do another CD and then the payments can continue, but there is no more money unless she does more recordings..

S agrees and records another CD worth of songs which is released several months later and does even better than the first CD. This same process is repeated (I am not going to tell you the number of CD's because again you may be able to deduce and so I will just say the process repeated itself several times)

Well everything goes well for the most part for all these years and then no more payments, and no more calls and she cannot even locate our mystery man..S has not received a payment in six months when she came into my office and related this story..She did not even know the guy's name, but when she described him, I knew who he was and was even more floored than I had been previously..This was just something I had really not heard before..

I had heard of really altering voices in the recording studios and bringing in hired hands for one song or a large portion of a song, but never CD after CD and even doing extra work so a live performance would not sound staged..I told her I needed some time to check into her story and then we could proceed..It took two calls before I got the guy on the phone and he was pissed, scared, angry, threatening, remorseful..everything..It turns out the reason he had stopped making payments was he had been playing some shell games with the money between the record company, MV's earnings and MV's investments and just did not have any additional money..In addition, MV was not sure she wanted to continue on with what had been happening and so our mystery guy might be completely out of the picture..

I actually think the record company to this day has no idea what went on as the Guy was very good at what he does/did and knew how to make sure the record company was always happy..He stayed under budget, toured, made MV available, and made the record company money..

So a meeting was arranged in my office and S and MV finally met face to face..they had never done so, even though it was S who made MV a star..MV was rude to say the least when she saw what S looked like and it really upset me although S being her normal classy self could have cared less..

What we agreed to do that day was to provide S with one lump sum rather than a monthly income which was easier for Guy to pull off and S also agreed to never disclose her role in this drama and MV was on her own for future recordings and tours..

This involved literally millions of CD's and hundreds of concerts all over the world..The one thing I did get out of this beside my fee of course is a Gold Record autographed by S and by MV..I know it is the only one in the world..

Annual MV Clue

It is that time of the year again. Revisiting MV. I think next year for the 10th anniversary of the site, on Black Friday it will be time to reveal this one. Back then, it was a big deal. Now, times have changed. So, consider this, your final clue.

Today's Blind Items - MV And The Annual Clue - Anniversary Month

It is Friday and a very special Friday at that because it is time for the annual MV clue. This is one of my favorite days of the year. Right up there with the free all you can eat buffet on my birthday. A quick note on the site and its progress. By Tuesday I am told there will be the most glorious mobile and iPad site the world has ever seen. So, fingers crossed for that. Many of you have asked about the "companion site." I am letting lawyers handle it all but I will say that you can't blatantly steal and then promote your stealing and not expect consequences. They wouldn't copy and paste TMZ because they didn't like a background color or post a Harry Potter book because they didn't like the font, but apparently they consider it ok to do it to me. It is not ok. It is theft and is being treated as such. If you would like a healthy dose of reveals and blinds this weekend then I will be here posting and if you would like to follow me on Twitter, I am @entylawyer

The clue is at the bottom of the post.

CLUE- MV has done or is contractually agreed to do a Las Vegas residency.

CLUE #2- MV broke up with a significant other this year.

Annual MV Clue

It is that time of the year. Another year has flown by and this week marks seven years since I first figured out how Blogger worked and hit publish for the first time. Almost 30,000 posts later and hundreds of thousands of comments I still like to go back to that first blind item that people still discuss. MV. If you have not read it yet, you can read the original 2006 blind right here.

I have a couple of new clues to offer this year.

She has been on a very popular CBS sitcom.
She has been on Saturday Night Live more than once.

Four For Friday - MV Clue

Today is Friday, so it is announcement time. Not too many to make. I will be here all weekend, typing my fat fingers to the bone blogging away and revealing a blind item or two tomorrow. Lately there have been some really good ones. Sometimes I reveal them ahead of time on Twitter and also this week, I have some blind items on there that are not on the site so, please follow me @entylawyer

It is that time of the year for the annual MV clue. Normally it would be on the anniversary of the blog but that is over the weekend, so I thought I would give it to you today. Hard to believe it has been six years. I could not have done it without all of you.

I promised you an objective clue.

Combined, the first and last name equals 13 letters.

It's MV Clue Time

This week marks the 5th anniversary of the blog. Happy birthday blog. I can't believe it has been five years. It has gone by so fast. I also can't believe I have lived this long with my parents. Holy crap they must be sick of me. Well, actually I know they are. Like I told my mom the other day though, just think of me occupying her house as my own little occupy Wall Street moment. Anyway, as has been custom for the past couple of years, I shall provide a clue to the identity of the MV blind item which was written almost five years ago.

Our famous lip syncher has released a CD within the past 12 months.

Today's Blind Items - MV

Well, if it is anniversary time, then it must be time for an MV clue. I don't know if I have mentioned this before, but should something happen to me, there is a list of all the answers so all would be revealed. Anyway, lets see if we can't get this down to just a few people with this clue. Either our singer or someone she has been married to has had a nickname or a hyphenation in their nickname.

Today's MV Clue

No Four For Friday today because it would just end up getting caught up in all of this. The final clue for this anniversary week is MV was born in the United States.

Today's Blind Items & MV Clue

The blind item is kind of hard, but it is a good one so wanted to get it out there. This actress/member of band/reality star recently had an operation to restore a good portion of one of her ears. She and her boyfriend got into an argument. He got her in a headlock and pulled all of her earrings out without removing the backs. With makeup and her long hair she can hide it from a distance but up close it is a mess and parts of her ear are a different color than others.

***
MV has been separated (real separation and not just kicking the guy out for a couple of days) and/or divorced at least once. Tomorrow's final clue will eliminate one of your favorite guesses.

Today's MV Clue

No blind item today, but here is your clue for MV.

MV has at least one child.

Today's Blind Items & Your MV Clue

This married A list television reality producer has always had a revolving door policy when it comes to the women with whom he has sex. However it seems that he has finally found just one woman he wants to have as his mistress and has cast the others aside. He wants to remain faithful to this mistress who also happens to be a B list reality star who seems to never have a boyfriend that sticks. Now you know why.

To borrow a phrase from Ted C, MV ain't:

Mandy Moore
Pink
Norah Jones
Beyonce

Happy Anniversary - And Today's Blind Items - MV Revisited With New Clues

Today is the 3rd Anniversary of the site. That means three years ago I was sitting at work one day, bored out of my mind and decided to start a blog. Fast forward to today and there have been almost 9,000 posts and approximately 250,000 comments. That is a lot of writing from you and from me. A couple of weeks after I started the site I wrote a blind item which has simply been known as MV. What I thought I would do today and for the rest of the week is to give you a few clues to help you along the way to see if you can guess it.

Here is what the post looked like almost three years ago, and at the bottom is your clue for today.

Another Timmy Hint And A Note About MV

So as I waded my way through another 200 comments, I noticed another theme popping up which was whether the award was a BAFTA. It wasn't. So you can remove from your consideration that Cornell woman. Second, remember the A-lister was an A lister at that time.

There is some confusion about whether cancer was the reason why I didn't reveal the MV blind item back in July. Letting you know about the cancer was just to give you an update. The only way the MV blind item will be revealed is if one of the contract signatories decides to talk or if all three were to die. Of course if I ever hit the lottery and don't need to work anymore, then I will reveal every BI I have ever posted, plus the fifty or so that I'm dying to tell everyone but can't because the people who know every detail is usually limited to two or three people which is not enough to cover one's ass. Too bad I didn't win Mega Millions last weekend.

As of the time of this post, there is nothing to add on the MV situation. I will keep you updated. MV is the only person who can come forward without any repercussions. Myself, S, and Guy do not have that option available to us.

Australian LINK of the Day-Is Nicole Kidman pregnant? This article seems to indicate she is.

http://www.news.com.au/heraldsun/story/0,21985,20832225-2902,00.html

I am hoping that the fabulous Mel will tell us all about the Kylie Minogue concert she attended the other night in lieu of attending the Australian Idol finale which she also had tickets for. Some photos would be nice too Mel otherwise I will have to post pics from her November 11 show which everyone has already seen.

A little update on the blind item from last Friday regarding the A list producer and his boy toy/slave tendencies. I represented his now ex-wife and during the divorce proceedings we discovered these weekly payments of $2000 each and every week. The producer spent over $100K in one year to be abused and treated like a slave for two hours each week. I did subsequently learn that said Dominatrix is very good at what she does and very attractive, but $100K in one year?

I will expand on the other blind items throughout the week and have four or five ready for this Friday as well.

The New Zealand link of the day is not exactly celebrity news or gossip, but is entertaining.

http://ca.news.yahoo.com/s/afp/061117/oddities/nzealand_crime_police

There are now a great deal of German readers of the blog and as is my custom, I will attempt to suck up, but it may be a few days before that starts.

I am working on a really long blind item right now, but I am having trouble making it totally blind so it will be a few hours before it is posted.

MV UPDATE

DEVELOPING-----

Someone who knows MV, but does not know about the S situation told me this morning that MV was contemplating an in depth interview to address some issues in her personal and professional life. Could this be one of the issues?

If there are any further updates I will address them in my 11am PST post.

As I mentioned at the end of my last post, if I make a mistake with spelling, or the date something is posted, please let me know (Thanks Jeeze Louise). Sometimes I rush through these things and do not always take the time to proofread as carefully as I should nor take the time to use spellcheck.

The first comment/subject I want to address is the S/MV item. The only thing I will say is I will not confirm or deny anything. I really cannot do that. However, with that being said, one thing I will say about myself is that I love my friends, and if you are my friend you know you will not get trashed here or behind your back or anywhere else. Some of you have guessed a certain person and I make very clear in another entry that she is a really good friend of mine and therefore could not be the correct guess. Also, she reads the blog, so be nice. lol

Det. Rhiannon Brock made a very good observation in a comment and I have to agree. It was in the Neil Patrick Harris entry and I stated that Ellen did not have any traditional romantic leads after Mr. Wrong, and the point in the comment was correctly made that this had more to do with Mr. Wrong being such a bad movie, rather than through any fault of Ellen. I agree. I also believe that NPH is probably the best chance for a gay actor to play a heterosexual lead because of his track record. Almost every comment on every blog about NPH stated he was so "believable" as a straight guy in Harold and Kumar, and it was such a movie stealing role that I believe studio heads would greenlight a movie with him as a heterosexual lead.

One commenter said that I am not Perez Hilton. I agree.

Several people e-mailed me and asked about the reality star and the escorting. So, I thought I would expand on it and I will do so for the others in the next week. I had a client who was arrested for drunk driving and during his recap of where he was and what he was doing prior to getting pulled over for DUI, he stated he had been driving/bodyguarding for this particular reality star as she met with two different clients and he had been doing this for her for several weeks. He was employed by the escort agency she was working for at the time.

For those of you have e-mailed me, I will do my best to e-mail you all back within the next week also, especially those who gave me some tips to confirm.

Thanks for all the great comments and e-mails about L. She was truly incredible and I do miss her grace and style and charm.

OK..wow..so many comments yesterday and I know everyone is dying for a clue..but a couple things need to be said..This really happened just as I said it did..However, there was also a settlement agreement that was confidential which I cannot violate as well...THEREFORE, I have taken certain precautions such as using the year 2000 as a starting point..In addition, I am very vague when I use times such as several weeks or months....It would not be fair to S or the other parties involved or ethical to be any more specific in this situation..

In my other stories, there is less blindness and the persons can be guessed with some degree of accuracy..

Let me preface this post, by saying that if this story ever comes out, it would blow the music world up and shake it to its core..This would put the Milli Vanilli scandal and Ashlee Simpson SNL situation so far down the ladder it would be crazy..

Towards the end of last year I had a woman come into my office and she began to explain what she had done and had been doing for several years and it was one of the very few times that I just could not believe what I was hearing..I know the music industry inside and out, and I had never heard of something so extensive and pervasive as this..

This woman (S) came into my office because the payments she had been receiving had stopped and she wanted to either get the money that was owed to her, or expose what she had been doing to the light of day..

S is a sessions/studio/backup singer and is very good..Prior to her involvement in what I am going to describe, she made a very good living singing on commercials and being a backup singer for groups and other solo acts, etc..Like I said she is very good, but she does not really have that "look" which would make her a star, so record companies did not put her out front, but just used her talents..

In late 2000, a man came to her one day and said he needed someone to record some demos because he had written a lot of songs, but wanted a demo to shop the songs to singers and record labels..This is not unusual at all and she had done this type of work before and it paid pretty well so she agreed. What was unusual about her recording of the demos was how much work was put into the actual recordings..It was extensive..Generally there is not much time put into the recordings because you never really know if the song will even sell, and the money spent on recording could be put to better uses..These demos she was recording were actually being treated as if they were going to be released on a CD or to radio..They even did some mixing which was REALLY unusual..

After a few weeks she had recorded about over a dozen songs and she went on her way and was really oblivious to anything else pertaining to it, UNTIL several months later she was in her car and heard her voice coming from the radio, only it was another singer being given credit..(We will call this other singer MV for Milli Vanilli) She could not believe what she was hearing and did not know whether to be excited to hear herself on the radio, confused about the credit given to another singer or just pissed off for the same reasons..

What she did do, was to call the man who had originally come to her and had her record the songs..The man agreed to meet her and gave her a substantial sum of money and promised to keep giving her money every month as long as she kept her mouth shut. MV was taking off..(MV has/had several Top 40 songs and CD's. They could have gone to #1 or languished in the 30's..I really cannot go into much more detail or else it would be too easy to discover) MV was everywhere..on television, radio, awards shows, commercials..EVERYWHERE..meanwhile, S continued to get money every month and kept her little secret to herself..The guy who picked S was VERY lucky..Most singers would have caused a fuss, but S has always been in the background and was resigned to the fact she always would be, and was very happy just taking the $$, and did not want that to stop..

About 9 months go by and S is called by the guy because MV is going on tour and they want S to record some extra mixes and such for the tour..She agrees and does not really do much, but money is money..

Fast forward another year or so and S stops receiving money and after a few months of missed payments, calls the guy who explains that they need S to do another CD and then the payments can continue, but there is no more money unless she does more recordings..

S agrees and records another CD worth of songs which is released several months later and does even better than the first CD. This same process is repeated (I am not going to tell you the number of CD's because again you may be able to deduce and so I will just say the process repeated itself several times)

Well everything goes well for the most part for all these years and then no more payments, and no more calls and she cannot even locate our mystery man..S has not received a payment in six months when she came into my office and related this story..She did not even know the guy's name, but when she described him, I knew who he was and was even more floored than I had been previously..This was just something I had really not heard before..

I had heard of really altering voices in the recording studios and bringing in hired hands for one song or a large portion of a song, but never CD after CD and even doing extra work so a live performance would not sound staged..I told her I needed some time to check into her story and then we could proceed..It took two calls before I got the guy on the phone and he was pissed, scared, angry, threatening, remorseful..everything..It turns out the reason he had stopped making payments was he had been playing some shell games with the money between the record company, MV's earnings and MV's investments and just did not have any additional money..In addition, MV was not sure she wanted to continue on with what had been happening and so our mystery guy might be completely out of the picture..

I actually think the record company to this day has no idea what went on as the Guy was very good at what he does/did and knew how to make sure the record company was always happy..He stayed under budget, toured, made MV available, and made the record company money..

So a meeting was arranged in my office and S and MV finally met face to face..they had never done so, even though it was S who made MV a star..MV was rude to say the least when she saw what S looked like and it really upset me although S being her normal classy self could have cared less..

What we agreed to do that day was to provide S with one lump sum rather than a monthly income which was easier for Guy to pull off and S also agreed to never disclose her role in this drama and MV was on her own for future recordings and tours..

This involved literally millions of CD's and hundreds of concerts all over the world..The one thing I did get out of this beside my fee of course is a Gold Record autographed by S and by MV..I know it is the only one in the world..
