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.

Great guess, Sandy!

bellaluna said...

Lucy Liu.

sandybrook said...

he better not be making Bai Ling an A list actress this week. last week she was B-list and she's really closer to D-list.

bellaluna said...

Jinx, Fear.

sandybrook said...

hey candyland!

Unknown said...

Lucy Lui has a steady gig with Elementary. So I doubt it's her.

sandybrook said...

Lucy Liu is on a show on a network, maybe Hawaii 5-0

Kno Won said...

I didn't realize Tia Carrere was ever A list. Did she open films on her own?

Tricia13 said...

Ashley judd

Seven of Eleven said...

I thought Tia, too, but she's been working steadily and Wayne's World was 22 years ago, not a little over a decade. :/

Tricia13 said...

Though incontinence find her exotic....she is/was...earthy

Unknown said...

Ashley is as white as they get how would she be considered exotic?

FSP said...

Cameron Diaz

I'm white have been called exotic...think it's something in a look/the eyes....dunno.But doesn't say foreign born....again.Vague city this blind
Ps not incontinence lol* I don't find her exotic I meant!!

Tricia13 said...

Shit
It's winona ryder

Unknown said...

white never equals exotic.

Tricia13 said...

Disagree

Unknown said...

Monica Bellucci?

Brin said...

Sanaa Lathan

FSP said...

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

Kelly said...

These are some hot mess guesses! And with that I've got none of my own. No shade intended, just made me giggle!

Rosie riveter said...

Ha ha Made me laugh nice and early.
thanks.

Sincerely,Your Friend said...

@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)

Unknown said...

Looking exotic and being exotic are two different things and sorry not sorry but white people are not exotic.

Unknown said...

Tilda Swinton is white and exotic.

She isn't the answer to this blind.

Tricia13 said...

Aww@SYF..:)
Yep.Lol..olive skin/almond eyes...I am essentially never taken as American(always European/Mediterranean so yeah, determining if someone is exotic looking based on race is ....a fail IMO.like saying they have type A blood so they can't be exotic., reguardless of what they look like

Tricia13 said...

And Monica Belluci a great guess @crash......stunning. Not sure she fits, but ....sexy AF

Sillygurl said...

Nice guess! She's still very beautiful.

Rosie riveter said...

I love the word never.

kelliknows said...

Rosario Dawson..but she's never been A list, has she..hmmm

CoBe said...

I thought this blind said "exotic dancer". Now I can't get the image of Ashley Judd flying around a stripper pole out of my mind.

rolotomassi said...

Monica Bellucci recently ended her marriage to Vincent Cassel too!! Now, THAT was an exotic looking COUPLE!!

rolotomassi said...

oh & Lucy Liu lives w/a billionaire.
Julia Ormond stars on Witches Of East End

Rivenisahasbeen said...

Zhang Ziyi perhaps?

rolotomassi said...

Uma Thurman was considered "exotic looking" beauty
just sayin'

Rivenisahasbeen said...

Nope she's been working steadily in China.

Gong Li then.

Unknown said...

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.

Tricia13 said...

@rolo...EXCELLENTpoint....and what a great answer. Very exotic....and fits ratings.

Tricia13 said...

@Prunella....haha. that's they exact type of thing she would write....ugh.

Sherry said...

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
A decade any better than he can a D list actress from a B

Haywood Jablomee said...

Incontinence- LOL WTF?

Haywood Jablomee said...

Incontinence in an exotic beauty - a potential landmine for Count Jerkula.

Unknown said...

No way Tia Carrerre was ever near A list.

Tricia13 said...

@Haywood..let's hope he skips this blind!!!

ladybaus said...

Bai Ling

Rivenisahasbeen said...

HammerGirl and TongueNCheek, if you're lurking I know you can come up with some good guesses from Asian cinema. I find myself missing our geek-outs over Donnie Yen flicks.

Kitten Caboodle said...

I'm going to go with Hilary Swank.

ladybaus said...

AM I READING THE SAME BLIND AS YALL?
I am surprised no one has guessed Reese or Paltrow yet.

EXOTIC

that being said Penelope Cruz FTW

Lady Heisenberg said...

Tia is also in the news this week with the premiere of Alexander

Unknown said...

It's crazy right?

Michael said...

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.

crila16 said...

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

SugarTitz said...

Madeline Stowe

Tricia13 said...

@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)

Unknown said...

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.

Cary Gaul said...

Monica Keena

ladybaus said...

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

Eros said...

Agreed

Dasha said...

Maybe Eva Green

Eros said...

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.

Tricia13 said...


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

One of a many articlesreferring to Ms Thurman as exotic.

Tricia13 said...

Well done@ Rolo...I think you nailed it

Astra Worthington said...

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!

Eros said...

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.

Tricia13 said...

@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.

Tricia13 said...

By the way..my source material was The Encyclopedia.

Gypsytrill said...

Vivica Fox

Unknown said...

Are you talking to me? I hate white people because I said they aren't exotic? Haha okay then if you say so.

ecua said...

J-Blo!!!!

Eros said...

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

Tricia13 said...

@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 ?

Tricia13 said...

*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

Tricia13 said...

And that's that.

Hegg said...

Rosario D.

Tricia13 said...

@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

Astra Worthington said...

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.

Rosie riveter said...

Shut. Up. You. Fcking. Idiot.

ladybaus said...

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.

Unknown said...

If it makes you happy to believe I hate white people then okay?

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.

ladybaus said...

Its ok Jucky you can hate me ---wont be the first nor last time ; )

Nothing screams exotic more than a bunch of white chicks on a site run in N. America lol SMH

Unknown said...

Aww Derek, I'd never hate you <3

Lucille LeSueur said...

All I can hear in my head now is Astra chanting "Jack Ducky hates white people!" Kanye-style. Ha!

Lucille LeSueur said...

And I know super late in the game, but let's get real folks, to JD's point, in Hollywood "exotic" normally equates to "brown". Duh.

Lucille LeSueur said...

Yasss! Or maybe Oprah-style :)

ladybaus said...

like Cara D is a UNIQUE beauty but not exotic. Ashley Judd is common looking as fuck and Uma Thurman/Madeline Stowe---very beautiful but if you met them at a party you would not walk away thinking "wow what exotic beauties"

ladybaus said...

^^ and if ya did than ya don't get out much.

ladybaus said...

^^ or your neighbour is HoneBoo Boo

Rosie riveter said...

I thought you were white for some reason. ? Hmmm interesting. But that's not my point here, its this: i was not saying stfu to you.

Unknown said...

I'm biracial, rosie, half white half black (to the best of my knowledge) and I didn't think you were :)

Astra Worthington said...

Oh Rosie, the Count sure had your number. Why are you so obsessed with me? Didn't I tell you to leave me alone, you freak? And keep holding your breath for me to shut up because guess what? I won't! So kindly go fuck yourself, you ditch pig.

Yes Jack Ducky, I am aware of your "white" family, which makes your racism even more perplexing. So, you hate whites, even though they adopted you and love you. Talk about gratitude! You know what you've posted, you've made your feelings towards whites obvious, so why not admit it?

Unknown said...

astra, I totally admitted it. you totally got me. because calling out problematic shit white people have done over the years (and continue to do) means that I hate all white people. you're so smart and I'm just so glad that I finally have you to show me the way. bless you, astra.

Astra Worthington said...

Sarcasm! Cute. Stay classy, racist. Have a great day.

Unknown said...

Astra, thank you! I will and I hope you have a GREAT day as well. Or well a GREAT night? idk but have a GREAT whatever! :D

Tricia13 said...

@ Jack respectfully...normally I would not 're-engage at this hour...But.."¡probmenatici white people Shit" can you narrow that down a tad bit...maybe to politics(newsletter..our sitting president is still black last time I checked/.or recent current e events- wait that thug in charlosville actually did have a hand in a dozen rape/murders...shbhhit. I thought per wee Hermann did it.

Or the myriad of brutal senseless crimes attributable(and that includes if not exponentially increases if talking genocide),to a a race other than Caucasian...

I can call it out...doesn't make me racist, does it?

What are you referring to?

George Zimmerman(who isn't white FWIW, George Bush,(who left office a looking time ago)...or George Clooney whose just- a closeted egoist?

Unknown said...

tricia, I'm a little drunk so that's making it even more difficult for me to understand what the hell you just wrote.

if you seriously have to ask about the problematic shit white people have done since the beginning of time then I can't even with this anymore.

I'm done arguing about this. if you guys would like to believe i'm racist then go ahead idgaf. I have more important shit to deal with believe it or not.

Tricia13 said...

@jack...whoa,,hold on, I never asserted such a thing.
I have no issue with you perse, we have..a banter , and I have been nothing but respectful to you, and everyone in fact...My last statement was prompted by something you wrote(minutes ago, and I simply seemed to understand it)
We all have a,it going on....,and I, haven't argued at all....or stated a belief iin anything..reread the thread.

Tricia13 said...

*attempted to understand it

Unknown said...

tricia, i'm honestly not trying to be an asshole right now, I really don't understand what it is you're asking me.

Tricia13 said...

@jack...we good. I'm not asking anything...that's crucial to our survival lol. It's all good.....i mean that. Have fun and you know I'll see up you ya in the AM:)
Peace...

peace

I agree @SM I was gonna say that..but I say less eees better.
The thread was way off in directions unknown.
Keep it simple and real @SM!!

Unknown said...

sugar! I'm not /obsessed/ I just have great appreciation for her... I wouldn't like stalk her or anything creepy like that...

Tricia13 said...

I might stalk Uma...jokes...!!er what I did there?
But actually I kinda did...like 17 years ago...I totally grabbed a seat at her table in a restaurant I was at..I had crushed her since liaisons dangerouses..she was...super kind..and lovely.

Tricia13 said...

I still up cuz I'm re watching ben affleck on Bill Maher...it's EPiC..but I fare all g'nite...and good vibes.

Rosie riveter said...

Take it easy little miss sunshine, what makes you think i was even writing that to you?
Youre sure a sweet talker tho...yes indeed, i have a thing for women(?)like you. Mostly because You know just how to talk to ladies. And charming, theres that. Oh, and rational and smart, with all the based-in-reality-political and social statements you make.
Yes, you got me dialed in baby.
Just kidding.
Guh-ross me out the door.
Now shut the fuck up.

@ducky ain't no hater! Kisses boo! You sleep right now!

Astra Worthington said...

Don't you have some 15 year olds to molest, you shit pig? Guess what? Once again, I don't give a fuck if your nasty ass approves of my statements. Who the fuck are you that I should care about your opinion? But please, keep on thinking I'll do what you tell me, like you have a damn bit of influence or say over my actions. Seek help for your delusions of grandeur, you're not the queen of this site, bitch!

anyone watch Law and Order tonight---its all Lilo Bynes Dan Scneider rolled into one

Aoife said...

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.

Ducky, it's a wacky world out there. On this site even the slightest comment will get analyzed and examined again, people come to their own conclusions, often while failing to realize how much they reveal of themselves. Live your life, it all blows over.

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.

Didn't Kathy and Tom Freston break up within the last year or two or so? Who is he dating?

Tyger Lilly said...

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.
