Today's Blind Items

This NBA star and when I say star, he is definitely All Star caliber is sleeping with this male B list actor from a Top 20 network drama. Yes, they say they are just friends, but it is way beyond that.

HOLY CRAP. This is juicy....

mooshki said...

No guesses, but yes, that sure IS juicy!

A Pimp Named DaveR said...

Tony Parker and Mario Lopez

The Eva thing has just been a smokescreen!!!!

Anonymous said...

Lebron James and Adrian Pasdar! I really have no idea, but it's fun just randomly putting people together...

kris said...

Pimp, LOVE your answer....lol..

A Pimp Named DaveR said...

ea73: You're right, it is fun!

Carmelo Anthony and John Stamos!

Allan Iverson and Matthew Fox!

Kobe Bryant and Edward James Olmos!

Rick Fox and Rick Fox!

I've seen this before (with pictures of the two together) on a black celebrity blog... now I just need to find it.

PotPourri said...

Adrian Pasdar is hot, hot, hot. How funny, though with Adrian. He's a shorty, and Lebron is nice and tall. AS a matter of fact, Pasdar would come to Lebron's belt buckle. Nevermind.

PotPourri said...

Dan, who is it? Can you remember?

Sitcur32 said...

I think the answer is Richard Jefferson or Vince Carter. They both have had a lot of gay rumors about them. I think one of them got married to throw off suspicion.

mooshki said...

Oh yeah, I'm on the Tony/Mario bandwagon!

What would we do with ourselves if celebs didn't love to hook up with each other so much? The world would be a sad, empty place... :)

palealebrew10 said...

oh my god, I SO hope its Tony/Mario. Wow would that be priceless.

Sitcur32 said...

Unfortunately its not Tony Parker and Mario Lopez. I just revealed the answer a while back. I heard that stuff in basketball circles......

Unknown said...

Richard Jefferson is with a (male) childhood friend. I've heard the rumors about VC also, but I don't think either of them is the answer to this blind. I need to search the mediatakeout.com and panache report archives...

Melissa said...

I expected daver to come up with good guesses for this, being such a sports fan and a gossip fan. Come on daver! :P

Sitcur32 said...

A Gossip website had a BI about a Hall of Fame Basketball Player who was being blackmailed by his cross dressing lover. Most people said the answer was Isiah Thomas.

Unknown said...

The story you are talking about sitcur is:

I love mediatakeout.com for ridiculous stories like these where they call out people for "looking" gay:

http://www.mediatakeout.com/2008/23480-suspicious_pics_nfls_braylon_edwards_and_his_close_male_companion.html

Still haven't found the story I am looking for though that is the same as this blind...

Anonymous said...

I hate to say it, but Mario's not acting on TV anymore. And he was never known for his dramatic acting. Good guess otherwise.

I don't remember the last time I saw a drama actor at a bball game though.

Sitcur32 said...

Thanks Dan. I agree with you. Media Take Out likes to exaggerate things sometimes for gossip sakes!!

mooshki said...

"And he was never known for his dramatic acting."

Blasphemy! Did you not WATCH "Saved By the Bell?!"

Molly said...

wasn't there a blind like this before?

Unknown said...

I cant get on the Tony/Mario bandwagon unfortunately because Mario is not on a top 20 network drama. Im gonna guess Ben Wallace and Simon Baker from "The Mentalist"

MontanaMarriott said...

Is one of the actor's Law & Orders Jesse L. Martin?

A Pimp Named DaveR said...

sitcur32: Different blind entirely. That one was clearly Isiah, due to the "suicide" reference coming as it did right after Isiah's medical issue, which was a rumored suicide attempt on his part. This blind suggests a current NBA player, not a retired one like Isiah.

melissa: So much pressure! What, the Tony/Mario guess wasn't good enough for you???? :)

dan: It's Vince that's rumored to be with the childhood friend:

http://sebahtubman.blogspot.com/2007/03/is-vince-carter-bi.html

Richard Jefferson was reportedly dating a "male model". Could now be an actor...

kari B-rum said...

Since when is Saved by the Bell a Top 20 Network Drama?

Sitcur32 said...

I think this is the first time I ever heard the words Mario Lopez and B List Actor in the same sentence :))

Molly. You are right. Panache had an Item about a NBA player in May this year. Its in her archives.

mooshki said...

MM, I can't imagine anyone not wanting to do him. :)

A Pimp Named DaveR said...

Also, I think this is the blind you're talking about, Sitcur:

A Pimp Named DaveR said...

dan: I take it back. That blind fits Jefferson better than Carter (Jefferson hangs with Beckford), so he's the childhood friend dater.

VC it is, I guess....

So which Top 20 dramas are filmed in NYC?

Mexi said...

I think this could be past or present...I don't see a timeline at all. Even if they are retired, they are still considered stars.

Sitcur32 said...

Daver. I know. I was just adding the Isiah blind item on since the topic was basketball.

I still feel the answer to this item is Vince Carter. He is still All Star caliber

Anonymous said...

Yao Ming and Rob Morrow! Hee Hee...

Anonymous said...

Daver - my favorite so far is Rick Fox and Rick Fox!!

Sitcur32 said...

Thanks Daver!

Anonymous said...

Jason Kidd and Chace Crawford! I promise that was the last one.

Green Wave Gal said...

the Yao and Rob Morrow thing just CRACKED me up! Good thing I wasn't drinking anything! :)

Maddie said...

Ent had a similar blind on Oct 7 except it was an NFL player and a C+ lister. Is this the blind people are thinking of?

http://www.crazydaysandnights.net/2008_10_05_archive.html

Think Jessica Simpson and Kim Kardashian are the only ones with NFL boyfriends? Well, I think you are forgetting about one very important C+ actor on a hit network drama who leaves his wife and kids every weekend to go cheer on his boyfriend who is on an NFL west coast team.

slappywhyte said...

what about Baron Davis?

Unknown said...

This is Rick Fox (retired, but many championship rings) and Eric Mabius from Ugly Betty. They met on the set.

Yellow Rose said...

I do have guess for the blind, but all these mentions of Vince Carter make me about when he first came into the league-little off-topic from the blind (sorry for the length-had a little more to say that I 1st thought):

I was a HUGE Rockets fan in the 90s (yes, before the championships, WAY before) Anyway, anyone remember how huge Vince was when he started playing in the NBA (with Toronto Raptors, I believe?), & how EVERY SINGLE TIME Tracy McGrady's name was mentioned, it was followed by (or preceeded by the fact that he is Vince Carter's cousin-the poor guy didn't have an identity of his own. Love that McGrady is now the bigger star, & leading the team I'm learning to love again b/c guys are starting to stick around. Funny how you rarely hear Carter's name anymore, at least not like before, or compared to Tracy.

[An aside: I'm 30, & have been an Oiler/Rocket/Astro fan for my entire life, but my faith was shaken in 2 of those teams during the traumatic-late 90s:

It was during that time that we saw our beloved Oilers (Luv Ya Blue!) moved to Tennessee (thanks Bud!) & since I was cut after making it the semi-finals in Texans Cheerleaders tryouts-& forced to watch girls w/ bigger boobs, & much less dance ability advance, I've refused to watch the Texans play;

Stopped watching the Rockets b/c there was zero team-loyalty after the morons traded Olajuwon to the Raptors & we had a totally different team every season.

I've boycotted pro football & basketball since that time & have been a one-sports woman (GO 'STROS!) (with 2 of the original Killer B's retiring & a wanna-be Killer B (B-asmus) no longer 'Stro, that, & the flurry of trades (I'm never going to forgive them for trading my Willy T or Bruntlett, Lidge too-but he needed a change of venue to get back to his old self, obviously-SO proud of him & Eric!!) we're starting to look a little different, but I'm sticking by 'em no matter what. Through an unbelieveable twist of fate, my family bought mini-season tickets in '05 (for the 1st, & probably last, time in our lives), & I had enough $ to take the option to purchase play-off tickets if we went, I was at every single home game during the play-offs (inclu the longest game in MLB post-season MLB history v. Braves (18 innings), it was almost 6 hrs long, (& we got there 3 hrs early!), & was at the 2 games played here during the first World Series in Texas (which included another record-setting game (14 innings)[I even made it on tv several times b/c of my custom-made cowboy hat w/ a bee ("Killer B") on top.]. :D

Went off on a few tangents there, sorry 'bout that. That said, I'm gonna guess Kobe Bryant, simply b/c he's in L.A. (more likely to be around actors than say, LeBron James out in Cleveland) & scandal-prone.

Unknown said...

Totally unrelated to this blind but since someone guessed him...

I travel a lot for work, and randomly I was stuck at LAX (trying to get to DC) due to multiple flight delays. I spent much of the 10 hours sitting at the bar, and at one point Eric Mabius unexpectedly sat down next to me. I had seen him earlier waiting at the gate for a New Orleans flight so I guess that flight was delayed too. I had noticed him before because he was changing his shirt (bare chested) right at the gate yet I was the only one who seemed to notice...

He was short - only about my height (5'9) and had a really large head (size wize). I briefly talked to him as you normally do with strangers sitting at an airport bar but he was boring and a bit queeny (I made no indication I had any idea who he was). I gave up after 2 minutes.

Then he moved when a seat at a table opened up. One of the guys he sat with said he looked familiar and he looked annoyed that they didn't know who he was after he said he was on TV.

That night I also saw Chris Meloni and J. Peterman from Seinfeld (forget his real name). Side of effect of sitting at an LAX bar for 10 hours I guess (I also was pretty waster by the end of the night - when the flight was finally canceled...)

Anonymous said...

I like the thought bassgirl, but two things: Ugly Betty is not a drama, and as it's only its second year, Mabius doesn't qualify as B-List even for TV yet.

Daver: NYC filming dramas - most of the Law and Orders. Our men are: Ice-T (ha! like Coco would share), The Belz, Chris Meloni (I can dream), Linus Roache (not sure he would count as B?), Sam Waterston (probably too old), Jeremy Sisto (not b-list), Anthony Anderson (probably b-list, so he's a maybe), Vince D'Onofrio (from CI).

So Vince Carter and Anthony Anderson?

Green Wave Gal said...

Why does it have to be NY?

Ms. said...

Enty, can we leave the gays alone and save the blind items for outing people who are behaving badly?

GauchoGirl said...

I like Daver's guess: Rick Fox and Rick Fox.

Gregory said...

Tony and Mario ALL THE WAY.

Unknown said...

Most commonly mentioned rumored gay players according to Panache Report are:
Richard Jefferson
Vince Carter
Tracey McGrady
Shawn Marion
Corey Maggette (I went to school with him and he didn't set off my gaydar...)
Cuttino Mobley
Tony Parker (of course...)

Most of these players are with an LA or NY-area based team so not sure if that helps at all...

FrenchGirl said...

tony parker and eva longoria who is a transsexual!

BARON DAVIS
