Today's Blind Items - The Baby

She was at that line between illegal and barely legal. She is a foreign born B list singer who has probably risen as high as A-. Fame and success are fickle things though and right now she is in a valley. She has talent other than singing so she will be able to make a living in the music business. It remains to be seen if she will ever climb out of the valley as a performer. She has some issues. Probably for good reason. She is still young. What happened to her is still fresh in her mind. She does like her drugs and booze and parties. Back when she was just starting to get a whisper of fame in her own country, she had the opportunity to meet this former A+ list singer (in a group) who is probably permanently A list in his own country. She was star struck. He offered to work with her. Apparently she believed him. One thing led to another and the married former A+ lister got the much much younger singer pregnant. He tried to buy her off with $500 to get an abortion. He threatened her career if she ever said anything to anyone and especially his wife. Our young singer did tell people. Not so many who got her pregnant, but that she was. Her new record label was ticked off. They sent her away. They didn't want anyone to know because they saw an image for her and pregnant teenager was not part of that image. So, she left. Alone. They sent her overseas and she went. Alone for almost a year in an apartment in a city where she had never been before. Her mom flew out right before the baby was born and given up for adoption. A week later they flew back home together and she started recording a new record.
