Blind Item #7 - Kindness

All the answers this week to the blind items are people who have never previously been an answer to a blind in the past decade.

This foreign born actor is probably B+ list. For those of a certain age you know him from this amazing sketch show and another that was going through an awful time period. If you are of a younger age, you know him from this hit network show. Anyway, he raised a bunch of money last year and chartered a plane from his home country and flew a bunch of underprivileged children and their parents down to Disneyland for a weekend. Disney did put up the money for the tickets, but our actor raised and spent his own money or flights, food and hotel rooms.

    I can't find anything about him sending kids to Disney World, but he does fit. The awful time being when Phil Hartman died.

    Dave Foley - Kids in the Hall for the way-back comedy sketch show, NewsRadio for the sitcom and for the young-uns, voice-over for Monsters University and A Bug's Life.

    Agree mark mckinney. Kids in the Hall was the great sketch and he did a brief stint on SNL when it was struggling. Now on Superstore

    Dave Foley - great guy but probably can't afford it with his alimony payments
