Today's Blind Items

This one is painful to write. It happens all the time though so I guess should not be surprised. This couple seems like they have the perfect marriage. Everything is always so great to the outside world, but inside, the couple is having some serious issues. Our actor is very good looking. B- list. Does television and movies and modeling. Always a smile on the face. Our actress does a little bit of everything. She actually has a chance at some point of pulling off an EGOT. They are married and have child/ren, however, our actor has been sleeping with a production assistant on his show and his wife has no clue. This would absolutely crush her and will make huge headlines if this comes out, no so much because of the level of their fame, but just because of the perfect couple image that is always presented to the world.

Idina Menzel and Taye Diggs

Ryan said...

Suprisingly enough, not George Wendt and Tobias Fünke.

icywench said...

Ok. I'll bite. What's an EGOT?

BrandieMarie said...

I agree 100% with Ryan. That was my off the cuff thought w/out having to research more closely.

BrandieMarie said...

@Icy - emmy, grammy, oscar, tony winning all 4

Ryan said...

Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, Tony

Taylor said...

Emmy

jbeebs said...

Emmy, Grammy, Oscar and Tony.

I think Ryan nailed it. *sad face

Patty said...

@Ryan, that was my first thought as well. Wasn't there a blind about them?

Taylor said...

Taye Digs is already well known for his philandering.

MISCH said...

There was a blind when she was pregnant.
I really hate these, but there's so much temptation and some of them...hell most of them buy into how special they are and deserve everything....just everything.
What an idiot.

Nooooooo not India & Taye!

icywench said...

Thanks all. I'll get with the program one of these days.

Worstcompanytoworkfor said...

Would it be "huge headlines" if this was Taye Diggs?

Taye is good looking but very good looking i'm not sure about.

violet said...

I was thinking Taye Diggs and Idina Menzel too. But I thought they were each other's beards, or at least she was his. A while back I read a few things where he is always with a certain man...alluding people to think it was his BF. Who really knows though??

BrandieMarie said...

@worstcompanytoworkfor - i never pay attention to the "huge headline" type comments he makes when writing these blinds. because thats all based off your perspective. things in LA or NYC are different than the rest of the world as far as how they see the celeb universe. on the NYC broadway circuit this would be huge news. HUGE. whereas someone in say middle america who's never seen rent or wicked or glee etc. may not even know who idina is. i wouldn't get too hung up on those little pieces of info. because truly that is just Enty's opinion. its hard to say how these people sit in his eyes.

Little Miss Smoke and Mirrors said...

Add me to the list of people who immediately thought of Taye and Idina. It fits, but I still hope we are all wrong, no offense.

Anonymous said...

Bnl1016 hit it on the head. It's all about perspective and on Broadway, this would be a major story.

Sad news either way. And one of those times where you hope it isn't true.

crila16 said...

I already heard over a year ago that Taye Diggs was a cheater. It's not a surprise to me. I also never knew that Taye and Idina were thought to have a perfect marriage. I always think of Heidi Klum and Seal having the best marriage in Hollywood.

RocketQueen said...

I'm with crila - there have been rumours for a while already about Diggs cheating on Idina. And do they present a "perfect couple image"?

Kelsey said...

Idina and Taye were the first ones I thought of too =( Too bad if true.

msgirl said...

RQ - yes they do. When they are papped they are always cited and look like The Perfect Couple.

rll said...

Emmy
Golden Globe
Oscar
Tony

surfer said...

I'm with crila as well. There have long been rumors of him stepping out, so no, I don't think this would be a huge surprise. Heidi & Seal do come across as sort of a perfect couple, except Heidi is not an actress, and therefore wouldn't be in the running for an EGOT.

Murphy Brown 2020 said...

I agree with the Idina and Taye guesses -- but I've also heard the same cheating rumors. I can't remember if I read them on this site specifically, though.

They truly ARE a gorgeous couple, though. Sad.

Um, Enty, how about a Kindness Blind in the near future? Lift our spirits a little, hmmm?

Lisa said...

Not that I don't love me some Idina, but don't you think that someone on their way to getting an EGOT would have received more than one of those awards already? Idina has only won a Tony Award, and frankly, she doesn't act all that often outside of Broadway, and she's only produced three albums.

Since I'm pretty sure Taye has already been revealed on this site as a massive cheater and they rarely make public appearances together, I just don't think this is them. I don't have a better option, but based on Enty saying "this one is painful to write" I would think this is someone we haven't discussed being a cheater in the past.

weezy said...

Diggs is kind of a rat. He and Menzel hooked up the first day they auditioned for the *workshop* for "Rent" but he kept the relationship quiet while he did "Stella" and other films to keep his appeal to black women 18-49 and raise his Q rating (hence the TV work.) They didn't come out as a couple and get married until his career was well along.

The NYC Film Chick said...

NOOOOOOOOOO! This would break my heart.

Linnea said...

Yeah, I love them both even though Private Practice is one of the most ridic shows on the planet.

Rose said...

I can't see Idina getting the roles for an Emmy or Oscar.

Carley O'Gorman said...

Will arnett and Amy poelher

blankprincess said...

LOL I immediately thought of Idina and the dirtbag as well. Sure, she only has the Tony right now, but it wouldn't surprise me in the least if she snagged some kind of "guest star" Emmy for Glee, depending on how well they write her this season. Also, the Wicked cast album did win the Grammy for the best musical/show album, so although it wasn't a personal win for her, maybe Enty is counting it?

Lelaina Pierce said...

@linnea - Agree. I had to stop watching it. The Addison/Sam storyline infuriated me.

Linnea said...

Me too. And I LOVE bad TV-shows. Long after everyone else gave up Greys, I kept watching. But PP is just so horrible.

Lelaina Pierce said...

@linnea - The Dell thing on PP really ticked me off too b/c I LOVED him. I'm STILL watching Grey's. And Desperate Housewives. :-/
And both those jumped the sharks LONG ago. :) Oh well.

Unknown said...

Yeah, I don't think this is T and I. They don't really put their relationship on display and when they do they talk about how difficult it is to keep things together when they both have such differing schedules. I was going to guess SJP and Matthew Broderick but he doesn't have a show and I don't think anyone thinks they are happy.

Barton Fink said...

@msgirl, the word "papped" is new to me -- and I like it!

Blondie1001 said...

I don't think it's Idina and Taye. One, I thought Enty outed TD as being a cad, so why would it be painful to write? Idina does TV now with Glee but mostly she does Broadway right? Sure a little bit of everything, but she's mostly known as a Broadway performer. Plus wouldn't Taye be mentioned as doing theater too?

Not A Ninny said...

This one isn't Arnett and Poehler, but I'm wondering if there is a problem in their marriage. I heard Poehler on a podcast and she didn't talk about Arnett at all but did mention that she's still living in New York and he's living in L.A., which seemed strange because they have babies and both their shows shoot in L.A.

Vetura said...

I going in a different direction...First is it Golden Globe or Grammy? There is NOT a long list of EGOT people...This marriage seems like it has some time behind it...So I say Tom Hanks & Rita Wilson.

Andrew said...

I think it's Barbra Streisand and James Brolin. They have children by different partners, but the rest fits perfectly. She's never won the Tony (she received a special Tony in 1970), but she's one of the few people who could easily earn the EGOT if he returned to Broadway. Also, she does do a bit of everything (acting, directing, performing, writing, etc.). No matter what she's done, Barbra's always been an American sweetheart, so this would be huge news.

Andrew said...

PS: Brolin is currently shooting a new TV series.

ecua said...

Jerry O'Connell and Rebecca Romijn. She's been on tv in multiple things, in films, and she's musical (recording a cd.)
