Today's Blind Items

This aging former A list movie actor has always seemed washed up. Even his characters had that look about them. He has always been a drinker. Some drugs, but mainly a drinker. He always drinks before television appearances, no matter the time of day they are filmed. That has always happened. His most recent behavior is not. Lately when he gets drunk he has been going to all of his old homes at all hours of the day and night. He rings the bell and when the owner answers says he used to live there and then invites himself in. He basically crashes in the house for 3 or 4 hours. Sometimes he tells stories and other times he just mumbles. One family called the police, but our actor was not arrested.

So this fashion designer is having a big show tonight in LA. Although he has been down and out before, he has taken on a J-Hud divaesque kind of air about him. The only people invited tonight are the elite of the elite. Old friends and acquaintances shouldn't bother showing up. They aren't wanted.

Nick Nolte is #1.

Yeah I thought Nick Nolte

Yup, I agree on Nick Nolte.

Where is Tom Ford lately? Rehab?

1. Nick Nolte
2. Karl Lagerfeld. He just launched a new collection in December.

Pish and tosh for Tom Ford as #2. His new ladies' fragrance is a big hit (and one does have a birthday coming up, EL). Rather, it's Marc Jacobs that just hit the 'hab (for the brown powder, as it's been hinted elsewhere), but I don't know if it's him either for this BI - I wonder if it's someone older, perhaps.

Golf clap for the Nick Nolte guessers, by the way.

anyone else notice that he gave away the jackass one earlier in his post?

Good call on the Nolte guess - my mind automatically went towards Bruce Willis.

Anon @ 1:02 - I did, and I asked about it in a post earlier this morning when I saw the item on TMZ.com. Sure seems to fit, in my book.

Anonymous said...

btw, I would think it should be pretty doable to narrow down #2. Anyone in the mood to do a search for the big shows in LA tonight?

Anonymous said...

I was going to guess Nick Cage for #1

Anonymous said...

but I think he favours drugs over booze

Anonymous said...

i thought 1 might be stallone? seems to fit...

Anonymous said...

Im guessing Jack Nicholson for number !....no doubt there and Marc Jacobs for number 2 becasue he just left 'hab and doesnt want the junkies hanging aorund.

Anonymous said...

i thought the second one could be the guy who won project runway....jeffrey something. i remember something about him being "down and out" aka broke before. just a guess though. -veronica

SB 1:06...which jackass post? I'm lost today...

Anonymous said...

Ugh nevermind...found it...I'm a jackass today

Could #1 be Sylvester Stallone? About ten years ago, he showed up at my friend's house (in Silver Spring, Maryland) one night with his girlfriend in tow, and explained that he used to live in the house when he was a kid and wanted to show her around. He didn't fall asleep. But he IS famous for mumbling.

Anonymous said...

this is gross but I read on someones site years ago where stallone likes to leave poop logs in the shower. its why he has a hard time keeping a maid. little rocky rambo is a scatman! eww

Amber said...

Oh please, Karl Lagerfeld has always been a snotty princess. The way it was written sounds like the designer has just begun acting like a diva. I think it's Marc Jacobs too, sadly.. love him.

a J-Hud divaesque kind of air about him

love it too much!!!

What about Danny Davito? Wasnt he just on the View drunk as a skunk? That's a "television appearance". He always looks haggered too.

I feel pretty sure #2 is Jeffrey Sebelia from Project Runway. Number 1, I dunno, Kevin Costner?

No, it's not Jeffrey, it's Michael Knight...now referring to himself as Mychael, for god's sakes. He's black, he's up and coming and he's a diva...check out his new site:

mmm, hmm...

Anonymous said...

I forgot to add... However insufferable he might be, he's a damn good designer.

xo, dvz

Anonymous said...

He may be all those things, dvz, but it doesn't actually say up and coming, it says "someone who's been down and out before."

I could definitely be wrong, but I think it's a person with a longer career than just Project Runway.

Possibilities:
Nino Cerruti declared bankruptcy in 2005, Isaac Mizrahi did the same in 2004 and Marc Jacobs entered rehab on March 13 of this year.

Ruled out:
Karl Lagerfeld--diva since birth (likely in-utero)

#1 Is William Shatner sober now?

#2Jeffery sebelia(sp?)maybe?

divaesque, JHud, clues scream reality show connection, a newbie with inappropriate sense of entitlement etc

Marc Jacobs, Lagerfeld etc have ALWAYS been divas.... wouldnt raise an eyebrow now.

That Mychael sounds a right twat too.

This is a question that has nothing to do w/ the BI, but what's the deal w/ the message board? I thought that the point was to put blinds there and non anons could post/guess there. It seems like a bunch of random personal rants and messages, which is fine, but not about guessing at all. BTW, I have no choice re: posting anon from work as I know many fellow slackers do.

Anonymous said...

5:05, the message boards have degenerated with everything else about this blog. I blame the ONTD crew who seems to make it their personal mission to ruin any site that is not their own.

D'amn right I'm signing this Anonymous!

Never knew that 6:00, how can you be so sure about that? Do you mean the site owners or just the commentators?

Sounds like Jack Nicholson his characters always look washed up.

Anonymous said...

Wow 3 posts and I am in the inner circle? Go me!! Id like to thank EL for this prestigious honor. Would it give away my non-worthiness if I ask what ONTD was?

William Shatner for #1? He always seems drunk IMO.

Anonymous said...

Oops I was so excited about my appointment I didnt re-read the clue thoroughly before posting. Shatner wouldnt be A-list. I say Jack Nicholson. He seemed out of it at the Oscars and laughing at nothing.
Please EL dont take away my coveted position I will be more careful about posting I swear. LOL

Anonymous said...

Yeah, but Nicholson has always been A-list, never considered washed up or a has-been (at least not in recent memory)... so I would vote Nick Nolte over him. He's definitely had his almost A list moments...

This is totally off topic but I can't help it. Dlisted is pisses me off, MK has a stupid bunch of "regular" posters. IMO a bunch of middle-aged ladies that just chat amongst themselves and never knowledge any other comments. They're not even funny. Ok thank you for letting me vent :)

Anonymous said...

Lol anon 8:15. I hate that too. And Mistic you are right. Jack might be crazy but hes not washed up. I change my vote to Nick Nolte. His mug shot still haunts me.

Anonymous said...

I'm going with Stallone:

Aging former A-lister-definitely A-list in the early Rocky/Rambo days
Always seemed washed up-being a washed up boxer making a comeback has been the running thread in just about every Rocky remake he has made
Some drugs-recently found with steroids
Alcohol-always sound punch drunk
"Rings the bell"-boxing reference
Mumbles-definitely fits

7:02 AM! Wow, quite a long day of pathetic "debunking" and ad hominem attacks ahead for you, Santa Cop.

Good thing you warmed up your Loser muscle with that colossally LAME post. Wouldn't want you to get a cramp.

Anonymous said...

Ok MzMary I am flaky today and that makes sense about the ringing the bell. Sly could very well be the answer.
