Blind Item #10

This former almost A list mostly movie actress has not been in anything for a long time. Nothing. Just dropped off the map from almost A to nothing. poof. Gone. Some say it is a case of stage fright and that she can't be in front of cameras any longer, but there is a more sinister theory also out there involving her husband.

  1. Not Phoebe Cates!! Her husband would never do anything sinister!!! (at least that's what i choose to believe)

  3. Both good guesses. Bridget and Renee did drop of the earth outta nowhere.

  4. Zellweger is not married

  5. @Cathy agree. I think Phoebe and Kevin are aces or at least i hope so.

  6. Bridget's husband is composer Danny Elfman. What could be sinister about him, other than he hasn't written a memorable score since the late 90's.

    What about Mira Sorvino?

  7. There was an old blind about Bridget Fonda where she quit acting because she was disgusted with the whole process & didn't need the money so she just quit. Good for her. Somehow bad behavior by Quentin Tarantino on the Jackie Brown set was the tipping point for her.

  8. if its a blind item, why not include the sinister theory regarding the husband?

  9. If it is Bridget, what's the theory? Because she was thought to be the subject of a blind on here not too long ago and the blame was on Quentin Tarantino, was it not? So which is it?

    I always thought it had far more to do with her car accident and probably some subsequent soul searching and anxiety issues. (I guess anxiety would be the stage fright).

    Danny Elfman is unconventional (a lot of people think he is Aspergers, like his buddy Tim Burton) but controlling? Bridget is a badass, I'd be surprised.

  10. I guess Geena Davis---she remarried a Iranian plastic surgeon---maybe he likes to practice on her and her nose has fallen off

    1. Her husband is a working actor, Courtney B Vance, plus I saw her in, "Olympus Has Fallen", on DVD. The WORST movie ever! Or close to it!

  13. Because of Scientology? Did they get her?

  14. It's okay. Shelly Miscavige knows where she is.

  15. Geena gave up acting to begin a commission on female representation in films. She's relatively high-profile in the feminist/media circles right now. and she can be seen frequently in promotion materials for her initiative. I don't think it's her.

    Do you think the actress is dead? Or missing? Any ideas, guys?

  17. I think Danny Elfman is an atheist, though, unlike his nephew.

  18. For reference, Bridget Fonda was last seen in a 2002 tv movie called Snow Queen. That's over 10 years. If she credited Tarantino with her desire to quit that doesn't make sense because after Jackie in 1997, she appeared in 9 movies and 4 tv movies/episodes. The "poof" was in 2002.

  19. Angela Basset is in the new American Horror story this season. So don't think it's her.

    I don't think its Geena Davis either.

    I am so horrible at these though, I can't think of anyone else.

  20. Phoebe Cates last appeared onscreen in 2001, in a film. However she has been photographed as recently as 2011 and she looks fabulous. She has a store she runs in NYC too. So the sinister guess can't be murdered/locked up somewhere, but can be a domineering, abusive husband.

  21. For a long time I've been wondering what happened to Michelle Pheiffer but I know she is in a new moving coming out soon with Robert De Niro. Otherwise I'd guess her.

  22. you guys guess Phoebe Cates for everything---she was maybe B list at the height of her career and only for her iconic role in Fast Times---what else is she known for? Drop Dead Fred?

    1. GREMLINS! HELLO!

      Really it's because she was every guy's fantasy for a solid 10 years - made her much bigger than she actually was.

  23. @derek...Phoebe Cates was huge for a certain generation. Besides the legendary role in Fast Times...she was also in Gremlins amd my favortie tv movie ever, "Lace" where she delivered the classic line, "Which one of you bitches is my mother?"

    1. Don't forget "Lace 2"!. With the incredibly creative line, "Which one of you bastards is my father????".

  24. And please, we cannot forget the classic film SHAG. I love that movie! Which ironically, also stars Bridget Fonda!!!!!!!!

    ReplyDelete
  25. @Jon...Lace was Amazing! I need to either read the books or watch the movie again.

  26. Garsh I loved Bridget Fonda in sooo many movies. Point of no return monkeybone lake placid and whats the one where shes a half deaf abused wife on the run from supreme ass husband and keifer Sutherland saves her? Too bad for us that she quit...

  27. To whoever guessed Mira Sorvino - she got married in 2004 and now has four children with her husband. FOUR. In the span of eight years (last one born 2012) There must have been hardly any time she wasn't pregnant and/or a new mother. Can;t see when she would be "fit" by Hollywood standards to act in a movie OR have time for it (though she did some anyway) ;)

  28. Phoebe Cates is a horrible actress. She lucked out bagging Klein and bowing out of Hollywood.

    ReplyDelete
  29. Lace *is* amazing! Loved it!

    ReplyDelete
  30. I don't think it's anyone mentioned, because none of them fit the years that she is missing.

  31. Didn't Cates open a shop? Sometimes people happily move on from their first career.

  33. Eh this might be some weird Bollywood thing or someone we aren't thinking of as A list...these blinds aren't fun, no clues, nothing to go on.

  34. I was watching Jackie Brown with my father years ago. When DeNiro was done banging Bridget, and she started to walk away, my dad paused the video tape. "You see that? You see that? She has the same ass her aunt used to have." I laughed pretty hard, because that was kinda out of character for my pop. Bridget did have a heck of an ass though.

  35. I loooved Danny Elfman in my young years, the 80s & Oingo Boingo were pretty awesome. However, he is deeeep into the Co$. Like, deeper than Beck, his wife, Marisa & her bro, Giovanni Ribisi.

  36. I saw some show where they interviewed PC in her shop. She looked happy and pretty. This was in the last couple of years.

  37. The one I always remember who seemed to disappear just as she was becoming close to A list I thought is Jenny Wright..she really dropped off,not sure if she was related to Robin Wright. Molly Ringwald is another.Kelly LeBrock was married to Stephen Seagall I think and possible abuse there..
