Blind Items Revealed #54 - Kindness - Himmmm

January 8, 2018

Golden Globes

A kindness item here.  I was exiting the Beverly Hilton/Waldorf Astoria area after another of the after parties and this actor (A list mostly movie actor who is a shoo in for an Oscar nomination) and I were walking outside. His lady, who is a dear sweet friend of mine whom I've known forever, was stuck inside talking to some friends.  I asked him where he was heading, and he pointed over to the little park fountain square across the street.

He said one of his management team told him that a girl was having a bad night.  She had been at the awards as a guest because she was an aspiring costume designer. Just another young lady with dreams, and this was her first event she'd ever attended.  She'd hand made her own black dress for the awards show then someone had stepped on the hem of her gown and ripped it about halfway up.  She'd been hoping people would see her dress and use it as a way to maybe get new work.  Now, she was so embarrassed she'd literally run away from everyone, almost like Cinderella at the ball.  Apparently her date (who had gotten her into the awards) was a tool who didn't notice or didn't care she'd disappeared. She was by herself crying and hiding across the street until her date finished partying.

Hearing this from the manager, and seeing the manager busy with another client, this actor I'm with wanted to check to see if she's okay.  After hearing the story, I agreed to go too. I walked over with him (playing Frogger darting across traffic), and she was there by the fountain looking like a girl left alone at the prom.  The actor then asked if she'd mind if we shared her fountain? She was shocked, and looked up at us.  "Uhh...oh my...uhhh".  Yeah, she was starstruck.  First she said "Oh gosh please ignore my dress - it's been a bad night".  She then began laughing and wiping her eyes. Within a few minutes, the actor's lady and two of her female friends had arrived as well, with a bottle of champagne. They passed it around and shared with the girl, as the actress examined the dress and told the girl she loved it.  As I was leaving them, the young lady was still saying "this is the best thing that's ever happened to me".

About an hour later I saw the young lady again, and she was with the actor, the actress, and they were introducing the girl to their friends, managers, publicists and she looked happier than any human alive.  Later on, I got a message from the actress that he and the actress had said they'd love her to do the actresses dress for her next awards event they attend.  Yes, there are indeed still some good people left in Hollywood who will use their position to help another...without forcing them to do anything evil in return.

What a great couple of humans Sam & Leslie are! They seem like a perfect match for each other. And wishing much success to the costume designer!

i like a lot Sam Rockwell, he was sooo good in Moon ( and in others movies). i was left with quite a sense of uneasy after watching it, and this thank to his great, subtle performance, so glad to know he is a good person, too

Leslie Bibb is an actress not costume designer. dome of these details are not the truth

KitchenGirl said...

Correct. She is the "his lady" referred to in the first paragraph, who came by later with friends and champagne. The costume designer was the woman weeping by the fountain.

Wendy said...

@three sides....read it again. Leslie is 'his lady', not the costume designer. The costume designer is an unknown woman.

Wendy said...

And I've loved Leslie Bibb since Talladega Nights lol. She is (was? maybe) on a show called Nobodies and is good on that too.

PotPourri said...

Leslie Bibb seems like such a lovely person too.
