Blind Item #2

This former A list mostly movie actress who was the go to exotic actress a little over a decade ago has steadily been getting less work and was having trouble making ends meet. Then she met a married studio executive and convinced him to leave his wife for her. They are engaged even though his divorce is not final. I bet she won't tell that version of events though when it gets mentioned in the tabloids. She also got a new movie out of the deal.

    4. I agree with Tricia, I consider Megan Fox exotic. Same with Olivia Wilde.

    5. @TriciaS. Lol at "incontinence". I thought u were trying to say the elderly crowd didn't like A Judd.

      Also, I'm white and look like my Norwegion and Danish ancestory which to me is common, blonde / blue and I've been called exotic too. I begged to differ, but looked it up and kind of decided it's sort of in the eyes of the beholder.

      I think of Raquel Welch, Sofia Loren, ....Olive completed Brunettes with long legs and killers eyes. (Maybe that is u Tricia)

  22. I've been giggling at the thought of Ashley Judd taking selfies and posting them to the cloud because she's mad she's not a target of the Fappening.

    Did you know she wrote an essay about how Apple products are shit and urine stained because they use products mined in Congo where women are raped and apparently get fistulas as a result?

    Yup. She wrote it on her iBook. Then tweeted a link to it from her iPhone. Hope she washed her hands afterward. Cuz of all the shit and urine on those products.

  25. I'm inclined to agree that white and fair is NOT what is considered exotic. I think in casting terms it is typically someone darker skinned with almond eyes. Think Asian and we've got our lady. I liked the Tia Carrera guess and bet Enty can't tell 22 yr from

  31. In General the term "exotic" is a somewhat disparaging term used to define non-white women, particularly mixed Asians; Spanish or Black and other races.

  32. @Michael. I'm white. I'm considered exotic looking.

  33. @SM I can't believe you said her....that's who I've always been told I look like, when she was younger(in her prime) I was only a teen then....but happy to see her on TV and loooved the movie Revenge like nobody's business(and stake out and Last of the Mohicans)

    ReplyDelete
  34. Agree @Jack - White people are not exotic. Exotic is a term that is used to label non-white people, particular non-white women. . Olivier Munn is half Chinese - so she would be considered exotic. And if you are white and folks consider you exotic it's because they think there is something non-white/foreign about the way you look. So people thinking that Megan Fox is exotic fits into that. White women are usually described as cool blondes, sultry brunette, fiery redheads but never exotic.

    Whiteness is the default and the norm, so anything that 'deviates' from that is deemed exotic.

    ReplyDelete
  35. The white people being guessed have exotic NAMES- don't confuse that with exotic looks

    ReplyDelete
  36. Anonymous1:13 PM

    In the context of this bi, exotic doesnt mean white yall.

    Exotic typically means non-white, more specifically asian, black, hispanic.

    With all that said, I like the sanaa latham guess. She turned into a super thot. I guess salma hayek too . Not sure if she fits though.

  37. Uma Thurman is a lanky, thoroughly beguiling actress whose exotic good looks separate her from such all-American beauties as Julia Roberts and Michelle Pfeiffer. After mak

  39. Oh look, the usual white hating racist comments from the usual white hating racist. What a shocker!

    Let's look at the dictionary definition of the word "exotic", shall we?

    exotic: Originating in or characteristic of a distant foreign country.

    So, by the dictionary definition, white people certainly can be exotic. Europe is a foreign and distant continent, comprised of foreign and distant countries. White people can be dark, fair, have every hair and eye color, and are as diverse, if not more so, than any other race. Whites are also not the norm or the default, as they are about 14% of the population of the planet. If they are the "norm and default" in historically white countries, what's the problem? Nobody complains about Africans being the norm in Africa, or Asians being the norm in Asia, so why is it only an issue when it's whites? I don't know but I'm betting on it being some more of that anti-white racism!

    I think that writer made a typo. Lmao!! Uma is gorgeous but exotic she is not. She's a nordic looking beauty, blonde haired and blue eyed... whatever lol.. this debate is getting silly.

  41. @eros...it isn't a debate(at least not by my standards) :it's information being provided.

    And based on the numerous publications/sources/articles calling Ms. thurman exotic I imagine there must be such a thing as a "typo-holic"....poor writers.

      I meant no offense to you tricia. Lol... I actually found it funny reading everyone getting all hot and bothered over the word exotic. Kudos to everyone for keeping it civil though. So far as uma-- It just seems like an odd descriptor for uma. Now if they had named any of the kardashian girls as exotic, they definitely fit the billand they are white women.

      Who knows though...Maybe nordic, swedish women are the new exotic and I missed the memo. *shrugs* lol

  43. @eros...it's cool...funny this is the only blind I am still checking because I felt the same way- this 6 letter word stirred a discussion...lol

    Agreed with kardashian clan..perfrct(well done) example of exotic well Kim, Kourtney and the wee ones have a bit...and they are American Armenians(they identify as this themselves). ..EurasianI country that is both Asian ans European in it's foundation. They identify as predominantly "white/Caucasian "... So is that far away land not exotic ?

    ReplyDelete
  44. *armenians, I meant....identify this way.
    Despite The melange of ethnic influence...they are white.
    But quite exotic.......so exotic is in the eye of the beholder, not a blanketed /socio-political/geographical term. It is, as pointed out by Astra...originating and have characteristics of a distant foreign country...and I for one....have been fatigued at times by trying to convince people I was from here, and not- from a foreign distant land.
    Uma has wide spread sensuous eyes and lips and a body like a gazelle...she is perfectly unique and far from homongenous , which I think was the inference

    ReplyDelete
  45. @hegggood guess...but she was never A list( not even with RENTs acclaim....her only leading role was 7 pounds and it sucked.
    She is exotic if by growing up on NYC lower east side to 2nd generation Hispanics makes her so.....but apropos to this thread, I find her one of the least exciting, sexy attractive, or alluring actresses that has ever worked.
    So maybe it is her....attempting to home wreck because she lacks the looks, the talent and the cache...
    Ask Danny Boyle...he left tracks on his way out

  46. Yes Jack Ducky, I am talking to you, you anti-white racist. I have read many of your racist comments on this site, don't think I am basing my opinion on one comment posted here. You have made it abundantly clear that you hate whites, so why not just admit it?

    It doesn't matter what you think, the definition of the word "exotic" is what it is.

      I mean it'll be awkward considering my entire family is white (seriously I was adopted they're all very white) and literally all my friends are white (I know I'm playing the "but I have white friends card") but I mean you must be right I must be a huge racist.

      Thank you, Astra, for freeing me and allowing me to now live openly as the racist I was meant to be.

  48. exotic beauty

    A term usually applied to a woman who is regarded as beautiful, despite the fact that her looks are not typical of those considered to be beautiful in the speaker's culture. For example, a tall blue-eyed blonde woman of mixed Japanese/Caucasian heritage with otherwise Asian features would be an 'exotic beauty' in either culture. On the other hand, a woman beautiful by Thai standards would be an 'exotic beauty' in Canada, but not in Thailand.

  74. Exotic has always meant non white in movie speak. Sanaa Lathan was rumored to have had a child by Denzel Washington but I'm not sure she would've been considered "A" outside of African American film. If she starred in any films outside of those geared to African Americans I'm not aware of them.

    I tried looking for past winners of NAACP Image Awards in 2004 but I got nothing.

  80. The other day they posted a sign in our lobby that the water would be out the next morning from 10 to 12. I forgot to put aside any water, then slept in, woke up at 10:30 am, we were having a heat wave, I was hella thirsty, and no water. Except in the dog bowl, but she tends to slobber so it was kinda gross, though I was tempted for a while.

    Of course I live in a City and could have gone and BOUGHT some. But I was in my jammies and although I recently went shopping in my jammies in a big supermarket, that was after midnight and I still have SOME standards.

    So then I remembered that my neighbor has a tap in his driveway so I got a 5 gallon bucket and lined it with a plastic bag and toddled over there and filled it with about 2 gallons of water and toted it home and felt this lovely feeling of satisfaction that I had gone out and kind of hunted and gathered.

    Then I took a clean glass and dipped it into the water and filled it, and brought it up and looked at it, and it was cool, and clear, and sparkling like a diamond, and I thought it was the most beautiful thing I had seen in a long time, then I drank it and it was wonderful.

    And for a brief moment, I experienced what it was like to have a third world problem.

    That was my birthday week, so I'd been doing some New Year's Resolutions (as in MY new year, not the new calendar year) ... and Thinking Deep Thoughts.

    So I made a New Year's Resolution. I resolved that whenever I got pissed off about something and began to focus on it, I would ask myself a question. Is this a first world problem? Or a third world problem?

    And if it wasn't a third world problem (and really, when does ANY of us have a third world problem EVER?) ... I would let it go.

    So when I watch us (and I use that term generously but let me lump myself in with you all) pitching hissy fits on celebrity gossip blogs ... I am ashamed of us because we have the luxury of food, and shelter, and clothing, and heat, and electricity, and running water, and INTERNET CONNECTIONS, and this is how we use them? This is how we show our gratitude?

    Make no mistake, if you are reading this, you are one of the 1% of the world. Or whatever percent has all the things we have.

    So get over yourselves already.

  82. Very few people can be labelled a true "racist". No matter what color or nationality a person is, we are all raised with preconceived notions about other races and cultures, and those ideas permiate our thinking on a daily basis whether we like it or not. The true "racist" is the person who accepts these stereotypes as fact and does not make any effort to learn any different. And with all of the name-calling and arguments nobody seems to have noticed @Derek's guess of Penelope Cruz, which I think is dead-on. She totally fits.
