Blind Item #2 - Kindness

This B- list foreign born actor does a mix of television and movies and also other things. He is extremely versatile although his Golden Globe nomination/win did come from television. He has also been very upfront about his mental illness and makes it a point to respond by phone and e-mail to any person who writes him and is having their own issues with mental illness. The guy spends a ton of time helping others.

  11. this is definitely Stephen Fry --

    http://xchingx.deviantart.com/art/My-letter-from-Stephen-Fry-93510114

    "Basically 2006 is when I was seriously suffering from depression and I felt so alone and as if nobody cared about me, I had no idea who to turn to. But I really needed someone to confide in and to and to ease the pain. So I wrote to Stephen Fry because he is my hero, and he has been through this himself. And low and behold, he replied to my letter, I will love him eternally for this.

    I though that I would upload this to give other people suffering from depression a chance to read the letter which helped me so much during the deepest days of my depression."

    Except @AJean, S. Fry's GoldenGlobe Nomination was for his FILM "Wilde" not T.V. --His best friend is Hugh Laurie who has similar affliction & as Tricia said above did win G.G. for T.V.---they both do ALOT for the cause though so they both deserve recognition for Kindness

  16. I couldn't imagine him wanting to help anyone. Cool if it is him, but he couldn't even be assed getting his long-term partner out of financial strife even though he more than had the means to do so.
