Blind Item #6 - The Sequel - Reader Blind Item
Someone else is making the rounds, but in a much more sympathetic way. It has to do what happened back in the 70s, when she was sixteen. The other person in this story is someone you all know. He's had two careers, the first in Hollywood, and the second in something equally high profile. It's almost funny that he has over the past year or two been publicly criticizing that permanent A++ celebrity because he was basically the first iteration of this person - just not at a national level. He got this second job by appealing to anger with the status quo, and pushed a similar set of priorities his first two years at the new job. If these were movies, the current one might be a sequel.
What else do these two have in common? Just before getting hired to the second job, there were agreements signed - money was exchanged in return for something else. Much like the more recent case, the woman in the previous one wants out. In light of the recent movement, she wants to tell her story, and has been contacting all the major media outlets through her attorney. It's unclear if she'll go through with it - people were not always sympathetic when she told them in the past - but if she does that famous line of his might finally apply to him, and his career.

Trump and .....
Arnold Schwarzenegger/Trump and someone
Ahhnold?
Couldn't be Trump since his first career wasn't Hollywood but it seems obvious that's who the reader is targeting with this blind.
Hasta la vista, baby
@Tricia13 - I like the Ahhnuld guess! Fits better with first career in Hollywood.
Get into da choppah!? It's not a toomah?! IDK which famous line would work. But, Arnold should Olivia Pope it and get in front of the problem, own it. He's divorced, what does he care at this point? He's got it made in the shade and statute of limitations is dunzo.(not a defense, and this could be a really horrible story, so...)
Schwarzenegger
Arnold and a woman he paid off, and Trump is the A++ celeb.
We seem to have a new category of blind: Blinds about other people that allow the writer to mention the president in passing.
The difference is this woman was 16, so she may not be held to a non disclosure agreement. The age would be what ruins the career.@Sher,I was about to write the same.
Definitely Arnold (and the Donald). Arnold's meant to be the one with the first career in Hollywood, as I read it, so it works. I know someone who slept with him in the 70's he was a total man-slut in those days. (Not slut-shaming anyone, to be clear!) But he was. The woman's probably not anyone we've heard of.
Thanks Ernie! My first thought was. Rooms Shields but it sounds like it could be someone less famous. Maybe some one in the wresting world
*Brooke Shields
Hasta la vista baby
@Cali,that's to bat-signal @plot.
"I'll be back."
@Unknown, you got it, that's the line.
It's unclear if she'll go through with it ... but if she does that famous line of his might finally apply to him, and his career.
My first thought was Trump's line, "You're fired!", which Arnold has actually spoken on TV, because he took over as head of the Apprentice once Trump became POTUS.
Has Arnold ever said, "You're terminated!" on film? I imagine he must have.
"Hasta la vista, baby."
Arnie the known groper with a fixation with his maid. How he got the governor's job is shady as hell what with enron being involved in fixing energy prices in CA.
Could it be Jesse "sexual tyranosaur" Ventura?
Probably not, but still funny to me
FFS, if you take money to be quiet then shut the fuck up. If it was not important enough in the moment to air it out it's not important now.
Gov. Gray would not sign into law some environmental changes to pave the way for wind power. Enron was invested in it way back then. So Gov. Gray was just replaced with Arnold.
Wind power went on to be a huge democratic party scam...Larry Summers and Rahm Emmanuel heavily invested in a couple of hedge funds which built a wind farm near my house. It never put out any power and was paid for by Obama's jobs bill. The real money was in the renewable energy credits however. Must be a a ton as all the big criminal banks are in on the funding.I live way out in the boonies of northern Maine..My state rep. in our legislature had several rental houses..his house and the rentals were financed through Deutsche Bank.Political Perks.
@just sayin: Cool background!!!
its deff the governator...
more rich arrogant pigs...whether it's Trump or Arnold who think they can treat women like trash and get away with it. Cos got away with it BUT they finally nailed him yesterday..hopefully the day of reckoning is near for ALL of these rich arrogant POS 'men'.
"if you take money to be quiet then shut the fuck up. If it was not important enough in the moment to air it out it's not important now."
Is that how it works? I don't think so.
If the NDA covers up any criminal activity it is void for those purposes. And if one party does not sign the contract, it is void (in other words if the subject doesn't want their real name on the NDA for privacy's sake, the contract is worth less than the paper it's printed on.) If either party breaks the NDA, then it is void (poor sexual harasser Peyton Manning learned this the hard way.) If the NDA was the product of coercion, it is void.
It's far more complicated than "take the money and shut up".
Disgraced sexual predator, the former Senator from Minnesota, the dis-honorable Al Franken.
Summary:
The Terminator did something bad with a 16 year old in the 70's, paid her to keep quiet, but now she is trying to talk. The End.
Probably the Governator, but I would have said his first career was in bodybuilding.
Interesting post by Molly. I didn't know that Gray Davis held up the wind power scam. Good for him, too bad it didn't last.
...and that is EXACTLY why jumping on Arnold's bandwagon last year when he argued with Dotard was wrong.
Praising Alec Baldwin: also wrong.
The enemy of your enemy is not your friend.
Wind power doesn't have to be a scam. It works in some places extremely well. Of course, in the USA there are vested interests with long tentacles in all the governments, state and federal, that want any alternative energies to fail. They want to ease all environmental restrictions as well so poisoning the US public can be shrugged off as "normal".
Who could they be?
Wind power is like many energy solutions, they're great as long as you don't live near them.
Brooke Shields didn't turn 16 until the 80's.
Like oil refineries then, or nuclear power plants, or coal mines...
Is wind energy really as bad as those? The wind farms are ugly as hell but not detrimental to our health, are they?
@plot
They are detrimental to birds. Owners of turbines must apply for waivers to the Endangered Species Act due to the large numbers of raptors killed each year.
There is an enormous wind turbine near an office I sometimes visit, several hundred feet high. It emits an odd noise... more of a pulse or vibration, really. Also, under certain conditions, sunlight reflects at angles that create a strobe effect. Initially it is mesmerizing due to the size, chopping sound and hypnotic movement, but I suspect it would drive a person insane rather quickly if situated close to their home. -- So differently detrimental in the way of a bad neighbor who is toxic to your peace of mind?
Happy Spring Everyone!
@Patience
Nope, doesn't sound like fun along with the other obnoxious casual noise that exists in our world these days. The wind turbines are effective, though. The bird thing has me personally concerned. Solar farms are also detrimental to wild life. I'm not sure what can be done about either unless the human population starts seeing wildlife as precious and our aesthetic environment as important. Since neither shows up on any economic frameworks, I can't imagine that people seriously care.
The intermittent nature of bird choppers makes them fairly unattractive as an energy source and prevents their ever being a primary energy source. It's still a very expensive way to get electricity.
Wind Turbines are proving to be a great energy source elsewhere in the world. Yes, there are government subsidies to build them but we have draconian subsidies for the oil industry that should have been abolished decades ago.
@plot, yes I was also referring to issues associated with infrasound from wind turbines, I think generally they're supposed to be at least 2 miles away from human habitation. I like the idea though and all power sources have issues.
@ErnieMcCracken How could you forget his turn in Home Alone 2???
Yep. Another household employee?
Donald Schwarzenegger
"Hasta La Vista, Baby."
or
"I'll be Back."
??? I really can't decide. ??? Shows what an icon that slab turned out to be--he got 2 catch phrases.
