Blind Item #3
This actor is B- list. Very hit television show, but he is just a piece. A very lucky piece. Has a bit of a drinking problem. Combine that with a Napoleon complex and he can get out of hand. Usually when he is at a bar and about to get in or pick a fight with someone he gets recognized and the other person backs off. Our actor takes that as a victory and keeps talking smack as he walks away and goes back to whatever woman he says is lucky enough to be with him that night. Two weeks ago as he was walking back to the woman, the guy he had confronted tapped him on the shoulder. Our actor turned and got punched and went down for the count. Knocked out. It took a few minutes before someone even went to help the guy up. His act is tiring.
Piven?
ReplyDeletePiven was my first thought - a piece of Entourage. My props to the guy who slugged him.
ReplyDeleteJesse Tyler Ferguson ;)
ReplyDeleteThis sounds like someone on a current show, though. "but he IS just a piece"
ReplyDeleteBased solely on The Mail: Johnny Galecki. Because he's short
ReplyDeleteI don't want it to be Johnny Galecki! Besides, would he considered just a piece of TBBT? He's one of the leads.
ReplyDeleteThe restaurant owner in 2 Broke Girls? LOL I kid. I kid.
ReplyDeleteSomeone from Game of Thrones??
ReplyDeleteAnyone just read Justin Bieber story about him dissing
ReplyDeletePeople who aren't rich and talented. Time gor that little troll
To go to rehab (or another planet).
Peter Dinklage
ReplyDeleteHe's an angry elf
DeleteLiven is the obvious choice, and it def fits, but I also thought of Chuck Bass...however Senior Bitchface is more likely to bang the guy than brawl I suppose.
ReplyDeleteI wanna be the girl chuck bass is walking back to!
DeleteWhat about Eric Stonestreet from Modern Family . . . I know he's not that short but he has had alcohol-related anger issues.
ReplyDeleteScott Caan - Hawaii Five 0?
ReplyDelete@VIPblond... I laughed out loud! I second Piven.
ReplyDeleteNo way it's Peter Dinklage. He's in too happy a marriage to be doing that kind of nonsense.
ReplyDeleteI like the BBT guess, because it's a hit show, with only Jim Parsons remotely achieving B list status. I think it's either Galecki or Simon Helberg. Wasn't Helberg involved in some sort of altercation a while back? He's married though... so def money on Galecki. He seems like a dick.
Scott Caan sounds about right. He is so overrated. Ugh.
ReplyDeleteJohnny Galecki had a kindness reveal about him--he gave families at a homeless shelter gift cards and (I think) provided transportation so that they could go Christmas shopping.
ReplyDeleteBite your tongue, FSP! Blasphemy!
ReplyDeleteWith todays media, internet, paps etc how did we not hear about this?
ReplyDeleteDanny DeVito? He's on It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia.
ReplyDeleteNo idea
ReplyDeleteDavid Spade?
ReplyDeleteAngus Jones from 2 and a half men?
ReplyDeletethe tiny guy who is in DM today?
ReplyDeleteMy first thought was Sheen. But the Napoleon complex comment tells me it's Piven the Perv.
ReplyDeleteMaybe it's Kevin Connolly from Entourage. Exhibit A:

The funny thing is that Napoléon wasn't actually short. It's the British propaganda that brought this idea, as they deliberately presented his height as 5 ft. and 2 inches without revealing that these were French feet and inches.
ReplyDeleteHis actual size was 5 ft and 7 inches, in Imperial units, which would be average or slightly above average for the time.
(Yep, I saw the video on YouTube about historical myths such as Lady Godiva or the viking helmets)
That's pretty interesting
DeleteDavid Spade
ReplyDeleteShia?
ReplyDeleteWow..I can't believe that every guess isn't David Spade. This is sooo him.
ReplyDeleteLeonard from Big Bang? He's a piece of the ensemble and very short.. Galinski?? I know I spelled it wrong :(
ReplyDeleteTHANK YOU EVERYONE THAT SAID DAVID SPADE! His act was tired when he was still on SNL and he seems like a TOTAL prick! As for Jeremy Piven or Kevin Connolly...isn't Entourage off the air?
ReplyDeleteBreckin Myer
ReplyDeleteSkarsgard
ReplyDeleteThis is definitely Alexander Skarsgard ... he was sporting a black eye last week.

ReplyDeletelink didn't work:

I'm guessing the ASkars guess is a joke since he's a tall drink of water? I don't like Johnny Galecki for this, mainly because I like him too much to imagine him being a real life douche. Piven or Spade sounds good to me. :)
ReplyDeletePeter Dinklage is married with a young child, he seems to go out of his way to stay out of the papers, so I don't think it's him. Really hope it's not Galecki, he just always comes across as having a good head on his shoulders.
ReplyDeleteI would think if this were someone from Game of Thrones, Enty would classify it as a cable show not television. GoT must have a cast that either knows how to stay out of trouble or keep their bad behavior quiet.
I'll say Michael Weatherly from NCIS?
Is Chris Kattan still on The Middle?
ReplyDeletePiven doesn't fit (sadly) because his show wasn't on a network. I've never heard about Galecki being a drinker so I'm guessing David Spade.
ReplyDeleteI would be SHOCKED if this wasn't David Spade! I have personally thrown a full drink on him. this screams him.
ReplyDeleteOooh! Do tell!
DeleteI'm totally on board with Scott Caan. Dude looks like a boozer, and he's about 5 foot nothing.
ReplyDeleteIt doesn't say network show, it says very hit show. Also I think "piece" might refer to the fact that he wears a rug in his head. Yes this sounds like Piven to me...
ReplyDeleteI think it is supposed to be Dinklage, with 'his act is tiring' being a nod at Tyrion and 'a very lucky piece' hinting at his character in Game of Thrones being a damned lucky fellow.
ReplyDeleteBut I don't buy it. And I am counting the fucking days until GoT comes back.
Sorry for accidentally tarnishing Johnny Galecki's reputation. A quick search of the Mail showed that Jeremy Piven is indeed in the Mail today too. The drunk Tara Reid pics are a bonus :)
ReplyDeleteSo @StewMcG got it, it's Jeremy Piven
Oh right GossipMonster..I must have remembered that from another blind today. Looks like the Pivert then!

ReplyDeleteI don't buy Galecki...seems to nice and you never hear about him being a spectacle in public.
ReplyDeleteDisclaimer: My comment about Dinklage is not intended to insult anyone.
Having said that, I find it hard to believe that anyone would sink that low and hit a little person. A full size person obviously has the upper hand and THAT person would be the true a-hole!
@Angela, the Napoleon trivia is interesting. I never knew that!
ReplyDeleteNo way is this Peter Dinklage. He's a VERY talented actor, not lucky to be on GoT.... GoT is lucky that he said yes to them! (even GRRM has said they were lucky to get him since he couldn't see anyone else in the role but he's generally very busy with other projects). He is also very intelligent, and very private about his personal life, keeps way out of the spotlight.
ReplyDeleteDidn't the guy from Revenge (Jack I think) get in some kind of alcohol-related trouble recently? He is very short...
Dinklage may be a "piece" of an ensemble cast, but he is a very pivotal one. He's also married. Being so recognizable (there really aren't that many little people who are well known in the "biz"), I doubt he would go from bar to bar picking up women and starting fights, unless he wants to be outed as a cheating prick.
ReplyDeletePiven, with the Napoleon complex and those tippy toes pictures from last week!
ReplyDelete@Halfmad FTW! Totally Kevin Connolly...and he's 5'7.
ReplyDeleteI think this is Scott Caan.
ReplyDeleteDavid from Roseanne would never!
ReplyDeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDeleteThis is totally the Privert. It doesn't say anything about the show being network, just a hit and he was standing on his toes in the photos last week: Napoleon complex.
ReplyDeleteThis totally sounds like the kind of douchey move he would pull.
I agree this totally sounds Piv-ish, but for kicks, I want to throw out Wilmer Valderrama. Because I have had an unfortunate encounter with him and know he is grade A douchemaster.
ReplyDeleteIf it was movie, I'd say Tom Cruise, but...I'll go with David Spade as well. I'd have punched him.
ReplyDeleteLook on the bright side Jenn, H'wd dime dumped a drink on him! Hahahahaa.
ReplyDeleteLol for the Skarsgard guesses. At 6'4", he's not likely to be suffering from a Napolean complex.
ReplyDeleteNo way it's Johnny Galecki! I love him! He is not a lucky piece, he's a lead on BBT. Also, he is very private, reclusive. Only goes out when he has to. Has tons of acreage . Doesn't bar hop . And tends to keep girlfriends long term. NOT Galecki ;)
ReplyDeleteNot scott caan. He's gay.
ReplyDeleteI don't know why, but I also immediately thought Johnny Galecki for this. Though as others have mentioned, I haven't heard anything really bad about him. Piven FTW!
