Blind Item #4
This former A+ list movie actress who started off on television has convinced herself that to get roles again in movies she needs to lose weight. The actress currently eats at most every other day. Her boyfriend, a former A list celebrity makes her try and eat but she then goes on a rant about how fat she is and that no one cares and that she used to be beautiful and a star and now she is not because she is fat. She weighs about 90 pounds right now.
This makes me sad.
ReplyDeletejessica biel?
ReplyDeleteDemi Moore? Former A+ list, started on television...is she dating anyone now?
ReplyDeleteMeg Ryan?
ReplyDeleteSounds like Demi Moore to me, but not sure who the guy is.
ReplyDeleteCrazy, healthy is where it's at...
ReplyDeleteMila Kunis
ReplyDeleteDemi
ReplyDeleteEnty you need to start revealing more of these
ReplyDeleteOn what planet was Demi an A+? And who is her A list celeb boyfriend?
ReplyDeleteI think it's Meg Ryan & John Mellencamp for the former A-list 'celebrity' bf.
ReplyDeleteI hope it's not Meg Ryan, but it sounds like it.
ReplyDeleteAnd while JM loves himself a trophy blonde, he certainly doesn't go in for the 'no eating' BS. He's the kind of guy who would definitely confront a GF over it.
ReplyDeletewow, this is quite the day for volume of blinds! And I hope this isn't Meg Ryan.
ReplyDeleteAgree w/ Libby.
ReplyDeleteIt makes me sad that actresses persuade themselves they are getting or not getting jobs because of weight. In fact, the industry is geared to take up starlets, give them three roles, then find new ones. There are approximately ten million women waiting in the wings to be in the entertainment industry, and if Hollywood started giving each woman one role, that would bring the number of woman waiting down to 9.95 million. I've always been bothered by how every major film stars some big Actor Dude and some girl half his age who maybe had one role before and who will probably never make another film again. It's a strange dynamic. It isn't because of your weight, young actress -- it's because of how the industry is structured.
ReplyDeleteI think Telomeraz got it. Milan will soon find that she will actually get more roles when she looses the douchebag bf.

ReplyDeleteMy first thought was Mila Kunis but it could also fit Meg Ryan
ReplyDeleteI'm feeling old if there are people who don't know that Demi Moore and Meg Ryan were A+ in their day. Both were the highest paid actresses in Hollywood at one time. I'm on board with the Meg/Mellencamp guess
ReplyDeleteOh...interesting about Mila. Was it yesterday she was in the photos with AK and Enty made a dig about her eating?
ReplyDeleteI don't think that Mila Kunis was ever an A+ list movie actress and she's still getting roles, like that Ted movie.
ReplyDelete@Jolene Jolene
ReplyDeleteDemi was definitely A+ list in the mid 90s. But last I don't her boyfirend, Martin Henderson last I
heard, was ever A list at anytime.
Mila is as popular as ever...I agree w/ *karen*
ReplyDeletePlus she was just papped yesterday wearing leggings and she does not weigh 90 pounds. She looks healthy and is curvier than when she was in Black Swan.
I'm with ya Ellen, feeling old when people are saying Mila (who?) Kunis is a former A+ movie actress but Demi and Meg are/were not. Huh?
ReplyDeleteAnyway, on to the guess... if Demi had a boyfriend (who cared) this would fit. As for Meg...hate to say it but she doesn't get parts because her face looks weird not because of any meat on her skinny bones. Both reasons are shallow but there you go.
This doesn't fit Mila for a variety of reasons. She has never been A list, her current boyfriend hopefully has never been considered A list (oh, dear god) and would probably be referred to as an actor rather than celebrity, and she has gotten heavier lately, not thinner and certainly nowhere near 90 lbs. Pus, Mila has been getting plenty of work lately. This fits Meg. She was one of the highest paid women in Hollywood in her day, the rom com queen before being displaced by Sandra Bullock, and definitely A list. She gets no work lately, has a former A list celebrity boyfriend (Mellencamp), and recent photos show her being scary skinny.
ReplyDelete@ Barton make that 10 million and one - I want to be in a movie too:)and by your calculations I probably could get in ONE!!!!
ReplyDeletesorry, I am getting silly.......
Sarah Jessica Parker. Ftw!
ReplyDeleteNever mind. Lol
ReplyDeleteBtw, I think if this IS Meg Ryan, she is blaming her career failures on her weight, so she doesn't have to admit it's her face.
ReplyDeleteJMO
ReplyDeleteThis sounds like such utter bullshit what I am going to say, but I completely stand by it. There is something to be said for a healthy, toned, unflabby physique and gorgeous face. BUT what's really sexy is confidence, an inner light, radiance, happiness, peacefulness, strength, power, being comfortable in your own skin, accepting yourself that is priceless and so so so attractive to everyone that sees you. Was Sophia Loren unsexy because she was fat? No way, she was gorgeous because she was comfortable jiggling by, swinging her hips at Cary Grant, she accepted and reveled in her body shape/size. Same with Marilyn Monroe, Jayne Mansfield, Ursula Andress, etc. Power, confidence, an inner light, inner happiness,intelligence, strength, passion, talent, all shows on the outside. Look at Marion Cotillard, she's skinnyish but she looks, happy, comfortable, at peace with herself, even like she loves herself and is a pleasant person, like she's happy with her life. That's what's attractive. How may times have you seen someone gorgeous and then they open their mouths to speak and the attractiveness flies out the window? It's not all about looks. As far as the acting world I agree with Barton, Hollywood really is just about the next barely legal or underage virgin that the casting director/older man douchbag can screw, get her knocked up, hooked on drugs or drinking and screw with her mind by telling her she's just a sex object and has to do meth to get roles. Cough** every starlet/model/tweener ever**cough cough. Look at Kathy Bates. She works and she's not skinny. Dame Judy Dench? Same. It's called talent and self confidence. It's not about body fat. If you have no talent, and no confidence from being in hollywood too long, then you probably know that you should have left hollywood a long time ago or gone in to fashion, be a trophy wife, a producer, or some other viable career other than trying to look like a fifteen year old virgin for the rest of your life. Give it up Demi. She needs some meds, a quiet ranch somewhere with Amanda Bynes, and a bunch of brownies and burgers. And yes Meg and Demi were definitely A List through out the 90's. And 80's for that matter. The brat pack anyone?
She needs to go to the Brownie Spa on Astrogirl's fantasy island
Deleteagree this sounds like an older actress that doesn't want to confront the hard realities about her age in Hollywood and is transferring blame to an eating disorder now.
ReplyDeleteWhat television did meg Ryan do? I only know her from
ReplyDeleteMovies.. Was she on a soap or something??
Yes. As The World Turns, maybe? My Granny watched it and I remember her.
DeleteYes. As The World Turns, maybe? My Granny watched it and I remember her.
DeleteMy comment sounded harsh. i meant because of all the SURGERY on Meg, she screwed up her face and ruined her career. That's how I meant to say it.
ReplyDeleteGod these skinny-obsessed women tired me out. Sucks that they are pressured to be thin but damn, think about something other than the size of your thighs for once.
ReplyDeleteAnyhoo, I would say Demi fits perfectly, except does she currently have a former A-list boyfriend? I don't think she does.
I watched "When Harry met Sally" and You've got mail, this morning - Meg Ryan was A-List - funniest all time movie moment when Sally and Harry are in a deli..
ReplyDeleteThis can't be Mila...when has Enty ever referred to her as "A+ list"? Although she has gained weight(I think she looks great) she is getting more roles now than ever before. Besides Ashton is not A-list either...
ReplyDeleteSelma Blair? Looking very thin. Is she A+ though? Did a lot of TV & TV Movies? http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-2208366/Selma-Blair-handsome-mystery-man-again.html
ReplyDeleteScrap that. Doesn't fit at all
ReplyDeleteDemi was totally an A+ back in the 80's. She was a HUGE actress.
ReplyDeleteWinona Ryder is lookin crazy thin, but I have zero idea who she is dating and can't seem to find a straight answer.
ReplyDeleteMeg Ryan started off on a soap/daytime drama, by the way.
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't be shocked if this were Meg Ryan, although I know Ashton has a history of carping on his girlfriends about their weight/appearance.
ReplyDelete@Wendy - I think you nailed it with the Meg guess. She hasn't had many roles in the past few years. I wonder if anyone will intervene. It sounds like she needs help.
ReplyDeleteMeg Ryan was part of a famous soap opera coupling (As the World Turns) before her big break in "Sally Met Harry" there is no doubt she was A+ list.
ReplyDelete@Carmellite Lady - well said, can't think of anything to add except, in my mind Sophia Loren out shines most of the boyish physique starlets of today. The reality is that at a certain age there will be very few parts, but that hasn't stopped Helen Mirren, or Dame Maggie, or Judy Dench.
i'm very old and i don't think demi was ever A+. not ever. meg ryan was definitely A+.
ReplyDeletemila kunis isn't 'former' anything. she's very young. but isn't and wasn't A+.
i'm going with meg.
Demi Moore was the first actress paid like an actor. She was A+ back in her day for sure. Ghost, Indecent Proposal, A Few Good Men... These were big movies. Although I'm terrible @ blind guessing, I look to you guys for my information... I'm out of the loop and old too!!!
Deletesounds like SJP
ReplyDeleteWe r watching Mila climb her way to A list. It wasn't until Black Swan that anyone noticed she had A list potential. She needs to do another dramatic role I think. She's hot and smart and won't have any trouble getting there. I like Demi bc she LOOKS 90 pounds. 90 pounds is soooo tiny for an adult woman unless she's under 5 feet! Who else is scary skinny? Lol A-list Ali Lohan FTW!
ReplyDeleteThere is no way an actress who weighs 90lbs is not getting roles because of her weight (as in being fat).
ReplyDeleteThis sounds like an older actress, and by older, I mean 28+. Harsh realities of Hollywood. If you've made it to former A List and aren't specified as a former tween, you're likely to be late 20s +. Or +++.
Whatever it is, actress, it's not your weight. Why not enjoy the money you have and eat every day? It's recommended.
I saw Meryl Streep last night on streaming TV in It's complicated, and she looked great and convincingly sexy for the age she was playing. She also looked at least 135 well-proportioned sexy pounds.
But maybe that's because she can act like a beautiful woman.
I don't get it. If the surgery existed to keep us all young and perfect, it would exist in Hollywood. It doesn't exist.
Why can't actors of both genders realize that they are not helping themselves by going under the knife?
Meg Ryan's career did not fall off a cliff due to her age. I'm not saying she is the blind here. Her career died the day she decided to make some plastic surgeon fix her face. That was a face that could have had tons more roles, she was so popular, but post-surgery, her career was basically over. Sad.
Oh for fuck's sake, Demi absolutely was A+ for years and years -- from St. Elmo's Fire and About Last Night in the Brat Pack days to Ghost to Indecent Proposal. And there are nothing but recurring headlines about how frail she is and interventions etc etc. It's her.
ReplyDeleteMila. Sad.
ReplyDeleteWhen you make your identity and career revolve around being the sexy ingenue or the super-cute girl next door, the clock will inevitably wind down on you as you age. Actresses like Kathy Bates, Judy Dench, Meryl Streep, Patricia Clarkson, etc. are known first for their talent, and that doesn't fade with time.
ReplyDeleteMila. Sad.
ReplyDeleteI thought Winona Ryder too when I saw the photos. She is tiny. But I also don't know who she's dating.
ReplyDelete@Carmelita Lady
ReplyDeleteI so agree with you and funny but I have had this thought lately too. I saw a picture of Diane Lane on the cover of More magazine. You could see some slight wrinkles but the smile and gracefulness of her face really made me admire her. I know people that are going to end up chasing after botox and surgery in desperate attempts to stay young, but when you see people like Diane Lane or Helen Mirren there is no "surgery" that makes up for that inner light. There is just no replacing it, even if Hollywood doesn't value it as a standard.
I'm so happy to read about a boyfriend who is trying to make his GF eat.
ReplyDeleteCosign with Barton and Carmelite. Also everyone who pointed out Dame Judy, Sophia, Helen, etc. please remember these ladies have a long work history in their native countries. Yes they have become icons but could you imagine if they started in H'wd what may have become of them? Kathy Bates, Meryl Streep and Patricia Clarkson are def. exceptions to the rule..Oh wait..Do they reside in H'wd? Hmm...sensing a connection here..High Five Barton
ReplyDeletei'm on board with the winona ryder guess. not sure who she's dating (if anyone) but she looks sickly thin and i can easy believe she weighs around 90 lbs.
ReplyDeleteI looked at photos of Meg. Scary skinny.
ReplyDeleteRachel Weisz??
ReplyDeleteHer first couple of things were a movie and a bunch of tv on IMDB.
And there was a photo posted on here like yesterday, someone commented on how thin she is.
Her bf is Daniel Craig...
Idk just a guess
Rachel and Daniel are married.
DeleteRachel and Daniel are married.
DeleteMeg and Demi were SO A+ at one time. Demi and Bruce Willis were THE power couple once upon a time. And Meg was the Sandra Bullock of her time America's sweetheart. It's probably Meg. But could be Renee Zellweger
ReplyDelete@Carmelite, just a suggestion but if you put a couple of paragraph breaks in your posts, they'd be much easier to read. The long posts are too hard for me to read. I don't mean that in a bitchy way, please know that.
ReplyDeleteDoes Demi have a boyfriend who is a former A list celebrity?
ReplyDeleteAnorexic chicks = no bueno.
ReplyDeleteBulimic chicks are much hotter. They lose their gag reflex and don't embarrass you by not eating when you take them out for dinner. It is like they can leave the mental at home.
Old and either is just sad. Zsa Zsa said there comes a time in a woman's life where she has to make a choice, the body or the face. Save the face ladies, cause when you get to that age, it is only going to be old dudes that see the body, and they gonna be a mess too.
It is Biel. She is waaay skinnier then she was in 2006 and nobody notices how thin she's getting. Jt is a a lister (former because he is coasting right now lol)
ReplyDeletekills me how fucked in the head people can be... she's probably throwing away food, when there are people starving. it's like real life hunger games. well, catching fire actually, when people in the capitol drink that stuff to make themselves throw up so they can eat more party food.
ReplyDeleteMeg was mainly considered attractive because she was considered 'cute'. When she lost weight at the peak of her career is when she lost the 'cute factor' and everything fell apart. It was around same time as the face lift..but to be 'cute' or even seem approachable,extra pounds would be an advantage
