People Can Speculate All They Want


So, are your proud of me? I managed to finally pull myself away from the Eva Mendes video just long enough to post something about Eva Mendes. Apparently she gave an interview to Parade. I'm still amazed that more stars don't want to always give interviews to Parade, because honestly, I think that is the one portion of a Sunday paper that almost everyone in a family reads.

Anyway, in the interview she says that she does not want to get into the specifics of why she went to rehab because she doesn't want her mom to get upset. She figures that if she doesn't confirm or deny anything that somehow that will help her mom. She in turn also is encouraging bloggers and tabloids to speculate all we wants about why she went into rehab and that she doesn't really care what we say.
"There are different stories about why I decided to get help for myself. People can speculate all they want. I'm not going to clear up the misconceptions. I have to think of the pain it might bring my mother."
Well, as nice as it is to say that she went in to rehab because Xenu came to earth, tied her down, injected her with heroin and made her watch Days Of Thunder repeatedly it also seems like with what she is doing that she is probably causing her mom more pain than if she actually just spilled.
What is a mom to think when her own kid won't say why she went to rehab and is so awful that it will crush her mother. To me that encourages worse speculation not only by us, but also her mom. Was it drugs, was it a pregnancy that went wrong? If it is your mother, what could possibly crush her? I doubt that getting addicted to Vicodin is really going to break her mom's heart. Actually I think any of the prescription drugs are probably bad, but are not going to break the heart of mom. I think we can eliminate pot from the discussion also. Coke or heroin? That would probably break mom's heart. Meth or crack? Eva was never that skinny so we can rule that out.

What about like doing drugs and the drugs caused you to have a miscarriage or something. That would necessitate a trip to rehab and it would probably break mom's heart if you hadn't told her you were pregnant.

See? This is why speculating and letting tabloids and bloggers license to do so. If I can come up with this, what is mom thinking?

  1. Mom is thinking the same thing I am. She was on coke and is pregnant, and still looks like it.

  2. Okay, I'm jumping on the conspiracy train (is it standing room only yet?). For some reason the tone of this post didn't sound like Enty's usual voice. My theory: he WASN'T able to stop watching the video, so he got his secretary to write this. ;)

  3. I read it as her Mother knows, but it would hurt her to see it out in public. Everybody has their family secrets and when those secrets become public they seem dirty or humiliating.

  4. ever read the q & a's in parade magazine? here's an example of the type of response you might see there:

    q: why did russell crowe throw a phone at a hotel clerk? is he out of his mind or does he have anger management issues?

    a: we spoke with russell's manager who said that russell saw a giant rat about to jump on the neck of the hotel clerk and he threw the phone to stop it before it jumped. sadly, he missed and accidentally hit the clerk. an apology was issued and all is forgiven.


    they should change their name to Prostrate magazine.

  9. No matter what you don't want your mother to know, we know it's pretty bad. But hopefully Eva can go on and have a happy life. It's probably even worse than we thought. Bad. Horrible. Nasty. Icky.

  11. Molly, I used to have a small rat as a pet, and I think comparing them to McCain is an insult to the poor creatures. :)

    Abaddon, yes, that was a reveal to this.

  16. rats are cute when they are scurrying around the subway tracks and i'm far up and away on the platform.

    it's when you see one ON the platform that they become scary, giant disgusting monsters that should be hit with large phones.

  18. I'm sure you all remember the photo of her coming out of a mommy yoga class and she had a tummy. I think this is the picture.

  20. from the way Enty has been telling this story over the last few months he wans't blinding much. i think we all had this one figured out from the get go.

  21. Mooshki: Thanks!!

  22. I'm with her. Nobody needs to know her shit, she doesn't owe anybody anything. That's why you read gossip blogs.

  23. Be careful mooshki - some commenters here will rip your head off if you suggest that it's a diffferent writer than the one that started this site. I agree with you though (and from your train comment apparantly so do alot of others) that the writing style has completely changed.

  24. REVEALED BITCHES.

    (called it)

  25. lol, lovethe conspiracy theories. The man can't even take a break watching EM's ad and have 'the help' do an entry without everyone spotting it!

    agree about the b.i reveal- didn't figure her initially, but the pieces add up to BABY ON BOARD.

    Back to the item, I can see why EM doesn't confirm the rumours about her rehab. Even if we all know/suspect it was drugs, and even though her mum will know the real reason already, it's really a question of an actor trying to retain some mystique. She could spin the 'saved damsel' angle, standard for rehab goers, but there's more power in not confirming. Leave only speculation.

  26. Eva isn't required to tell us why she went to rehab. Nicole and Keith aren't required to give us a photo of their "baby." I think people expect too much of celebs these days.

    Oh, and Parade sucks.

  27. the writing has really changed in the last few months. Lots of rants. I always figured it was more than one person blogging anyway...

  28. Was it ever a real BI? It answered itself by time. Eva ANNOUNCED her pregnancy, as far as I remember. Then she went to rehab, and nobody was ever to hear about a baby again. They were just counting on everybody forgetting about it, knowing the short memorability of gossip. I realized it had to be her a WHILE ago.

  29. "Which actress went into rehab only after she suffered a miscarriage? She was on a four-day cocaine bender when she lost the baby she didn’t even know she was carrying."
