Today's Blind Items - Award Season Marriage

You can always tell when it is award season and our actress is nominated for something or will be nominated for something. You don't see her for a year or two and then she pops up in online tabloids on a daily basis. Oh, and as a side note, yes she is paying the pap to take the photos. Not much though. The pap gets good money for her photos because she does only come out every couple of years. Plus, she is a name. A list this year for sure. Oh, and she has a bonus. She lets him know where she will be and he shows up and snaps a couple of photos. She wants to be in front of those voters all the time. She wants to win. She will do anything to win. She will even stay married to her husband who she dislikes more each day. A divorce announcement would crush her chances. It is the wrong kind of publicity during award season. Everything needs to be positive and friendly and if you can throw in a new wedding or a baby or the fact you just found a cure for some disease, that is always looked on favorable by voters. Cheating, divorce or admitting you watch television are all things film voters frown upon. Our actress knows how the game has played and has played it to win before. She knew this role would be a winner and she planned ahead. Way ahead to award season and how she would look. She knew she needed to pull out an extra card or two to have a chance. Some kind of hook. The last time around she hadn't really needed the hook. This time she does. Anyway, when she found out about her husband cheating and being a general all around a-hole, it put a crimp in her plans. She kicked him out to the guest house. Not hotel stays for him. No rumors. No chance for him to hookup with one of his girlfriends where he could be spotted. He stays in place. The only way he is going to get a check from her in the divorce and to cover many of his financial losses is if he stays put. Oh, except on red carpets where he will act like the perfect accessory to her Oscar dreams.

Until the "married" part I swore this was Michelle Williams

sandybrook said...

Natalie Portman?

MontanaMarriott said...

Amy Adams?

Dena said...

That's my guess...she's pregnant again and all over the place.

sandybrook said...

I know and I think Enty has put up BIs about him cheating on her within the past month or so.

Betty said...

Natalie Portman

SkittleKitty said...

Portman?

trainrides said...

Amy Adams

Who could this be but Portman?

Shorny said...

Natalie Portman all the way.

C-Dog said...

Natalie Portman (Jackie)

sunshine daydream said...

Natalie Portman - wonder if she got pregnant to have extra attention this season?

MontanaMarriott said...

The only reason I did not think it was Portman was because she already has Oscar gold. Not to mention that a woman who hates her hubby doesn't usually get knocked up by said hubby, but it's Hollyweird so what do I know?! LOL

cebii said...

Portman, who conveniently looks 9 months pregnant (unless she's having twins) although she's not due until spring. I wish she would leave her hair dark.

Georgia said...

Natalie Portman.
Curious to see how many of the 'happy couples' we'll see smiling at the paps on sunday will survive after award season is over.

Sunspirit said...

Imma say Nicole Kidman

Long Island Girl said...

Has Emily Blunt been pictured lately? They've sold off a few homes, lately.

Emmaf said...

I thought Nicole Kidman too. Sounds like her husband.

Sadie said...

Amy Adams for sure. She has been nominated several times and never won. She's reaching Winslet desperation levels.

Jews be Jewing, Natalie Portman

Dr. Albondigas said...

I hope she loses -- tbh, I feel like I barely survived her Black Swan campaigning 5 years ago (you know, that movie where her now-husband cheated on his longtime partner with her).

Unpopular opinion, I'm sure, but I'd be more likely to see 'Jackie' with a different actress. Not that NP isn't fine, but I see previews and think to myself, "Jesus, another movie with Natalie Portman's alternating crying and then stoic-face".

Also, Jackie was thin, but looked like a sophisticated woman. Portman still gives me childlike vibes, she looks like she's playing dress-up. Parker Posey in 'House of Yes' was more convincing.

TopperMadison said...

I read it as Amy because she's the Susan Lucci of Oscar noms. Five nominations and no wins, and this reads like someone without a trophy already. Portman and Kidman already have their Oscars.

loopymommy said...

Sunspirit got it.

Dotty said...

Julia Roberts

Bob's Burgers said...

I feel like Nicole Kidman and Keith urban are where Angelina and Brad were a few years ago. Ready to divorce and miserable but holding on to their combined brand marriage for appearances sake. Kim and Kanye too, the brand is worth more than the misery.....for now.

M. Brown said...

If she had anything nominated it sounds like Reese. But based on GG moms I'd say Natalie. I've never heard anyone imply Keith Urban is anything but a nice guy. Don't know anything about Amy's life though.

GoTrollUrSelf said...

+1 @SunSpirit. Kidman's been everywhere.

Candy Crush said...

Exactly--that's her hook. For the GGs, she'll be a whale and her dress won't matter. For the Oscars, it will either be the same, or she'll give birth and go back on that Swan diet of eating air and nothing else and everyone will say how great she looks for having just given birth. Sheesh.

Candy Crush said...

Not just to have attention--but to conveniently "be absent" from the spotlight. ("Oh, I couldn't possibly....") Surprised she hasn't thrown in a good faint yet.

Guesser said...

Not Kidman, she doesn't have to pay off her husband. It does sound like Natalie Portman , she only shows up when necessary.

Candy Crush said...

I read it as Portman because Enty mentions "already played it to win" and "last time she hadn't needed a hook; this time she does." Which would be the kid. Lot of water goes under the bridge in 9 months, and she probably wanted another little one. She's the breadwinner anyway; it's not like it's going to cost him anything in the end.

Candy Crush said...

I agree. I've never cared for her acting. Could be that everyone anointed her "the next Audrey Hepburn:" it rubs me the wrong way when they do that too soon. I also thought the whole "lived in Israel/changed my overly Jewish name but felt bad about it/went to Harvard" story line when they did Black Swan press was exceedingly pretentious. She comes off as one of those people who is desperate to be taken seriously. Lighten up.

LadyJane said...

It says in the blind she played the game to win in the past so it can't be Amy Adams. Plus she works and is papped consistently.

I agree with Portman and pregnant being her look. Gross.

Malibuborebee said...

The only way to deal with people like you is with a heavy wooden baseball bat in hand you vile piece of shit.

Guesser said...

Also, Amy and her husband have been married just over a year, together for fifteen, and before announcing her pregnancy, rumors about Natalie getting divorced were all over. Plus I think he has money troubles.

Malibuborebee said...

+1

I immediately saw this as Kidman/Urban.

Malibuborebee said...

It sounds like Reece except it's what she would have done to Philippe (and probably did). Her Oscar run fpr Walk the Line and what she put Philippe through for it is legendary. Her current husband is much more powerful in the industry than she is so she can't really fuck with him.

Urban is a nice guy although he was a much nicer guy before he married that frosty bitch. The marriage has been over for a while. In typical Hollywood fashion she's keeping it going until after awards season.

RenShaw said...

I like this assessment. Portman FTW. And when did admitting to watching TV become a faux pas. lol.

shakey said...

I was thinking Cate Blanchett.

OKay said...

I just find her to be incredibly boring. She simply has no screen presence whatsoever; she's like air with lines. I couldn't even say whether she's a "good" actress, because she's so forgettable for me.

OKay said...

I envisioned Kate Winslet all the way through here, but I have no idea whether she's nominated for anything.

Melody LaRue said...

Nicole Kidman, for sure. She's all of a sudden popping up at "family engagements" in Australia with her spiel about how everything between her and Keith is just fine and dandy.

stacey said...

I was thinking anout Meryl Streep. She really wants another Oscar.

DC reader said...

Kidman. She oddly said recently she wanted another baby. Her kids like 7 and 9 and she's 47 so total nonsense. She called paps to beach in Australia and airport holding hands with kids in clothes no one wears on a plane (bare legs.)

DeadRed said...

100% pretentious ass Natalie Portman. The "not watching TV" thing is a dead giveaway. She lied about doing the dancing in Black Swan, she lied about who her baby daddy is, and she lies about how "she feels more connected to Israel than America" umm than go enlist in the Israeli army. Yeah I didn't think so.

Hot Cola said...

Good girl! The perfect revenge: let this tool fool be under your ( financial) tumb and keep him around to be an accessory to your journey. That's what tools are for.

MontanaMarriott said...

"she looks like she’s playing dress-up."
+100000000000000000000
Perfectly worded. Other than her role in The Professional I cannot stomach her acting, it's basically "Natalie Portman doing Natalie Portman"
