Four For Friday- Coming Out Young
This weekend starts my training for St.Patrick's Day. I feel like I have a really good chance this year to be able to drink from the time the bar opens until last call. It is a lot of hard work, but the payoff is worth it and the satisfaction achieved from setting and then reaching that goal. Anyway, it won't stop me from blogging all weekend. Oh, if you would like to follow me on Twitter, I am @entylawyer
Even though this actress is still in her mid-teens she has been acting over a decade. In that tweener world she is probably A- list. In the mainstream world of acting she is probably a B- lister. Sure she has been the lead in a movie but when you are young I don't know if that counts for as many points on the list. She has been in some very big movies and even has a recurring role on a hot cable show. Anyway, she is already working with her family and PR people to time a coming out announcement with a movie that she is shooting. It will be a big movie with a lot of press tours and promotion and she thinks by coming out she can help other people in their teens who are struggling with the same decision. She will probably be the youngest actress to come out.
Elle Fanning
ReplyDeleteChloe Grace Moretz?
ReplyDeleteDakota Fanning
ReplyDeleteKiernan Shipka
ReplyDeleteKiernan Shipka??
ReplyDeletenot sue about big past films, but she has 2 opening this year, is 15, and MadMen for the cable show(obviously)
ReplyDeleteIf it is Chloe Moretz that would be interesting. I never understood the brief pairing with Brooklyn Beckham - it seemed very forced - it sort of flared up and died away pretty quickly. But then maybe she was bearding for him! That too, would be very interesting, non?
ReplyDeleteMaisie Williams
ReplyDeleteKiernan Shipka.
ReplyDeleteAbigail Breslin
ReplyDeleteI guessed her too. The movie might have been a TV movie - Flowers in the Attic.
ReplyDeleteyeah, that sounds right...just figure let's guess about 15 yr. old's sexual preferences cuz we had it all figured out at 15..right?? i kid.
ReplyDeletekeiran's been the lead in other movies--one w/an animal-forget name..
ReplyDeleteJoey King?
ReplyDeleteGood sleuthing all..she is young.
ReplyDeleteI love her!
ReplyDeleteJoey King
ReplyDeleteUpcoming Movie: Stonewall
Cable Series: Fargo
Big Movies: Crazy Stupid Love; Oz the Great and Powerful; Whitehouse Down, etc.
You got it first Tricia13...I'm also a bit intrigued by the Maisie Williams guess too, but leaning Kiernan
ReplyDeleteKiernan has no "big" movies that have been filmed or in production.
ReplyDeleteThat's a good guess.
ReplyDeleteWould coming out help put the kibosh on casting couch attempts?
ReplyDeleteI second Joey King!
ReplyDeleteaaah...it was called "Smooch" re-telling of the frog & the prince but it was a made for tv movie! (wikipedia)
ReplyDeleteThe only guesses that work right now are Kiernan Shipka, elle fanning and Joey king, the rest of them are over 18.
ReplyDeleteI'll also throw in Bailee Madison. She has been in a lot of things, has had a recurring role on Once Upon a Time, The Fosters, was in Just Go With it, Bridge to Terabithia,
Joey King played Ramona in "Ramona & Beezus" which would count as being the lead in a movie.
ReplyDeleteI'm on board with Joey King. Stonewall is the perfect movie to come out to.
ReplyDeleteI like the Joey King guess! Btw, why is the app not working?
ReplyDeleteAnd where she co-starred with Selena Gomez, with whom she remains friends to this day. Selena takes a, um, very different approach to her sexuality issues, but it does give Joey someone to broach the subject with, in the industry.
ReplyDeleteShe was also in Taylor Swift's "Mean" video, and she and Selena were at the 18th birthday party for Camila Cabello of Fifth Harmony (who's sort of out as bi, btw) that Taylor organized. So she might be getting some guidance there, as well. (Some people think that TS is micromanaging her relationship with Karlie Kloss as part of a long-term coming out strategy. Others think that idea is nuts and Taylor merely deserves props for not bearding up the first time spec about her and Karlie got too hot.)
in any event, major props to Joey if she does come out. Good for her.
I know that Americans use to bang rather early and that but some 15 yo person isn't exactly the most stable of the people. If she comes out, she will probably be doing an Anne Heche soon and coming back to penises, then back to pussies and so on.
ReplyDeleteSo coming out (as yourself) is now part of a self-marketing plan, a resume builder for the already successful with the requisite lame claim to doing it for charitable reasons. How faux.
ReplyDeleteDing! Ding! Ding!
ReplyDeleteI don't know what's going on with Taylor Swift and Karlie, but considering Karlie's boyfriend is a Kushner...as in the billionaire Kushner's and Ivanka Trump's husbands brother, I'm sure she's trying to have this end in a very lucrative marriage.
