Blind Item #2

Our favorite closeted former B+ list mostly television actor from a now defunct hit network show went on a drunken rant about one of his former co-stars. Apparently he thinks he has more talent and she does not deserve the accolades coming her way (she does) for the same type of performance arena in which he is currently starring.

Darren criss/Lea Michele

and lea michelle

Actually Criss/Jenna Ishkowitz whose doing theatre

Tricia13 said...

Ushkowitz*-got stellar reviews for "Waitress"

Violet said...

Amber Riley for Dreamgirls is the ex co star. It just opened in London to rave reviews.

Tricia13 said...

I bet she is amazing in it-she and Jenna both come from strong musical theatre backgrounds I believe

mariaj said...

It seems D-fake-Criss and Amber Riley, but he is an idiot( what a new) if he thinks that HE is more talented than her, especially if she better her acting skills.

Don't think is Criss AND Jenna, first, she may have had nice rewiews, but i never thought of her as " talented", at most, a good professionist, while Amber is much better than her

austin said...

I like this guess. Enty doesn't like Lea, so I can't see him unnecessarily acknowledging any talent she may have "(she does)" cause that's not his nature.

mariaj said...

it's nice to see karma working , someway,...hope this is just a little taste of what is coming

The Troublemaker said...

Why is closeted relevant? In a related note, see the excellent Netflix documentary Tab Hunter Confidential for his perspective on staying closeted.

austin said...

Those generally perceived as closeted is a solid clue narrowing the pool of potential guesses.

anon said...

Except Darren isn't currently starring in anything. So either this was written before Hedwig ended and Enty waited to post without editing OR it's not Darren.

It's not Jenna.. they went to see each others show. It's not Lea because she isn't doing anything but hotel room PR shots with SQ on hiatus.

anon said...

Closeted is relevant because Darren won't be recognized without it. Normally Enty throws Glee in there so I'm quite surprised.

austin said...

Good catch, so not Darren or Jenna. This one is tougher than it seems at first.

Tricia13 said...

True about Darren-Must be Matthew Morrison(And Amber Riley) who is starring in a revue called "Broadway up Close"..... (Enty normally refers to Morrison as closeted and married , but hey)

anon said...

I was thinking Matt Morrison as well. The ego is definitely there.

Tricia13 said...

@anon I agree(and the theatre angle)because that's his "domain" in his mind too I'm sure

austin said...

"...for the same type of performance arena in which he is currently starring."

Morrison isn't currently acting in a theater production as far as I can tell.

mariaj said...

But Morrison isn't " our favorite closeted former , with a fake GIRLFRIEND" , so, i think is Criss

Anyway, if is him, what's the problem? Next time, instead of" WHITE, STRAIGHT, Cis -person with a " beautiful "gf ,as he has identified himself, he may say: "White, straight, cis person with a " beautiful" girlfriend" and more successful than ANY other costar".i mean, just one more crap, why not..

sadie said...

lol jenna started working on broadway at like 5, she's clearly talented and for sure moreso than darren

sadie said...

it's 100% darren criss and amber riley

austin said...

But, as commenter 'anon' pointed out, Criss isn’t currently starring in anything so he doesn't fit the blind.

John said...

If it's Michele, no she doesn't. Her scenery chewing, fourth wall breaking, indicating and self consciousness make Bette Midler look like she's Meisner trained. Thank dog no one's playing her music.

texasrose said...

Will the Glee related blinds never end????

Anglophile said...

She is. I was lucky enough to see it on a preview night, and she is PHENOMENAL. The whole cast and show were great, but Amber is a powerhouse. I hope she does more theater - she's definitely worth the price of a ticket..

LiveYourLife said...

Criss is still doing Theater, just not a current show, so perhaps it's a loose truth. He's hosting 'Hairspray Live' (or did), and he's doing 'Broadway-Con 2017.' And he was doing one-off theatrical music concerts (like Little Mermaid Live). Maybe it's the fact that he's doing all these crappy little one-offs and not in a hit Broadway play that has gotten him a bit riled up?
