Blind Item #7 Trick Or Treat - An INSIDERHER Blind Item
I had such fantasies.
Some years back, I lived in an area with celebrities in every other house.
In Trick or Treat distance from my house lived some of the most famous people on earth. I could not wait to see what these surely down to earth people did for Halloween. I had a walking route planned for this first outing that passed the houses of some cool people. My kids were psyched!
We started in the flats:
Permanent A list beloved actor & B list actor/producer wife -they turned off all their lights, period. Not even a pumpkin. Did they really live there?
Famous comic actor & acting family -a couple of gourds outside. Lights out
Foreign born comedian with one routine? Welcome! Trick or Treat!
Famous Permanently lovable A list couple & their brood - No signs of life
Former A+ list comedy icon. Disgraced. Brick house with mile high gates. Always dark.
Permanent A+ List Director & wife former Actress -Intercom. If you yell ‘Trick or Treat’ into it, you get silence. ***Now, down the hill, on to a private road.*******
Permanent A list at least triple threat & then wife, Permanent A list for name value/status. A convoy appears in the distance. This trick or treating is looking dangerous. We’re stopped by beefy armed guards who come out from nowhere. Were told we cannot trick or treat here. It was like a military installment in there. Somewhere I have pix...
This kind of total shutdown is just the way it is in Hollywoodtown...and it’s now most popular star clusters. Like this, my friendly hometown! For a tip, Dino Martin & Dorothy Hamill had a House right at the center point of all these other celeb homes. Dino was gone at this point.
It’s worth noticing that only the foreign born comedian had Halloween decorations up & was outside welcoming children.

Blind Item #6 - The Videographer
Ahh, but when you have a regime that corrupt, they want some leverage and many, if not most of these encounters with the females were captured on film or video. The video is grainy stuff and old now, but the films are vivid and you can identify everyone in them.
The person in charge of collecting and cataloging the videos and the subjects belonged to a cabinet level member of the government. Long though destroyed, many of the world's elite who had participated, breathed a sigh of relief last year when the videographer died.
It turns out though, the films and video and who is who in each, was never destroyed. They were all in a garage next to a guest house where they had been for decades. In February, one of his children started digging through it. She told members of her family and lots of her friends, and also, in March told one of her long time friends she had met through her sister . The person she told was a foreign born permanent A list celebrity.
The subject of our blind was not blasting this all on social media, but she was not keeping it quiet either. None of the people she told had really seen much of the films. They were too hard to watch. Two weeks ago, the government of the country came to collect the entire library of films. What they had not recovered were the volumes that named names in each of the films. After such a long time, they needed the volumes to be able to identify every person in the films. They said they wanted them to let relatives of the long dead females know their fate.
No one knows where the volumes are now. What we do know is the woman who held them back is dead.

Blind Items Revealed #4
Apparently this former A- list mostly television actress/writer from a now defunct pay cable show wrote a THREE part episode for her new show which basically was just her getting back at her boyfriend for cheating on her with the one named foreign singer. She was convinced to turn in something different as an episode.

As I told you a couple weeks ago, this actor seen on a very very very long running network show slipped in his very public sobriety. It was after that he started hooking up with the A list singer. As I predicted, it is a mess and he is not even hiding his boozing at this point. She likes to party way too much to keep dating these tenuously sober guys.

She really is a good actress and deserves that Oscar she has. This A list mostly movie actress, despite being the recipient of a lot of grief on the set of the movie she is promoting right now, says everything was hunky dory. She was singing a different tune during filming. Almost every other day or so.

Blind Item #10 - Unlikely Abuser - An INSIDERHER Blind Item
This is a powerful accusation, and I generally believe the woman-unless the man makes more sense.
This man’s newfound celebrity status amazes me, considering his long time career. But it seems many celebrity men connected to this guy, or wanted to be him. He is, I think, a sexual Everyman. A schmuck who gets laid all the time.
I get it.
When this well known performer was at his peak, so to speak--my friend dated him. I thought it a very bizarre choice for such a sophisticated woman, but she was curious about his well known equipment. Apparently it worked very well with her, and she said he was a very generous lover. He was known for that in his business.
He & my friend stayed casual friends throughout the decades.
I got to know him through her, and found him to be an annoying yenta. He lived with his old Dad & between porn shoots & dating my friend-he’d take Dad to Bingo or to temple.
Once, his old car broke down on the streets of Greenwich Village, and he asked my friend to push his car so he could jump start it. She says that’s the worst she could ever say about him.
I’d say the same, from my limited ‘exposure’ to this odd icon.
He could annoy the hell out of you. He wasn’t PC. He called you ‘doll.’
But, you couldn’t deny the guy had carved out a niche for himself, and was a nebbish getting paid to get laid.
The recent accusations against him seem very unlikely to both my friend & myself. He was always respectful towards women from our experiences with him. If you don’t count pushing the car. Or him calling you ‘doll.’ We don’t buy that he’s an abuser. He would never have been a mainstay of the porn industry for decades if he had abused an actress/porn star. Believe it or not, there was a strict code of ethics in that biz in old time New York. Our celebrity got paid to get laid not only because of his endowments, but because women generally looked forward to performing with him. This is because, as I said earlier-his reputation was for being a generous lover.

Blind Item #9 - On Line At The Deli - An INSIDERHER Blind
You cannot believe the size of the salamis & prosciutto! It’s a carnivore’s paradise. I stocked up on the marinated shrimp. Smiley Face! Keeping you guessing, right? Some writers who claim to be Vegan might be disguising their carnivore lust to throw off their real identities. Ever think of that?
Unsurprisingly, you can meet famous actors at this unequaled deli. Equally unsurprisingly, many are Italian. One such actor hangs out here like a regular Joe. Because he is.
I met him there. Our fams became friends because of our mutual love of food.
Hungry yet, blinders?
If you don’t care for this actor’s face, you may think twice when he sings.
But, like many actors, he is shrimpier than you might think.
He’s very down to earth, a family man, and other than mentioning shrimp again, I’ll just say: go see him in his most recent venture. The man could be a finer singer/crooner than he is an actor/director. And that would be very fine indeed.

Blind Items Revealed #5 - Kindness
This horror actor is probably A-/B+ list in his genre, C list elsewhere. Works a lot, and you'd know his face even if you didn't know his name. Best known for a film from a few decades ago made by a foreign born director and based on a foreign born source material. Anyway, at an after party at a horror con recently, he helped care for a very drunk girl who was drunk in a hallway and also helped a couple of other attendees prevent another attendee from luring the girl back to a hotel room.
Tony Todd/Candyman, based on a story by Clive Barker, directed by Bernard Rose

A couple of weeks ago I told you about this former A list NFL player who is a serial cheater. I have been telling you about him for awhile. He was trying to get back together with the mother of his kids while also having sex with that part-time online actress/part-time yachter who used to be with the former A+ list singer. I told you he was cheating on her with yet another person, I just didn't know that other person is underage. Apparently she was not the only underage girl he is trying to hook up with too.

Back in the 70's European royalty was kind of a mess. I blame drugs. And not having to ever get a job. Anyway, a princess in Europe married a guy from a country nowhere near Europe. They produced a child who decided the US university system was his chance to make as much money as possible selling drugs to as many students as possible. Later in life he got married to a woman who preferred not to be monogamous. That woman was the downfall of the indie rock darling couple/group when the male in the group decided he would rather have sex with her than be married or play music.

Blind Item #8 - Letters Part Two - A Dancing Boy Blind
Like the dancing boy, I never meant to go to Hollywood. In fact, I never even meant to go to Los Angeles. I grew up in one of those midwest capitals where practically everyone works for the state, or at the college, and most people stick around as adults.
But my senior year in high school my dad had a heart attack, and nearly died. His insurance didn't cover all the bills. Paying for even in-state tuition was out of the question. So I reluctantly accepted a scholarship to USC.
I expected it to be all sorority girls in squishy socks with BMWs, and of course there was all that. But it's a big enough place that even a shy, bookish girl like me could make friends, and have fun. (Although try living in LA without a car. It's like being trapped on an island.)
I was an English major, but also a big movie fan. In between classes, I'd hang out at CNTV (what the School of Cinematic Arts was called back then) hoping to meet or at least see someone from Hollywood. I did get to meet George Lucas once at a reception after his lecture. I asked him what he was working on, now that the Star Wars saga was done. He corrected me, saying that the plan was for nine movies, plus three others. He also said though that he was working on a new movie. "What's it about?" I asked. "A duck," he said. "I think it's gonna be big."
I also got to meet John Huston, who didn't look well, and was there I think because they were hitting him up for money. He put his hand on my cheek and told me I had "the eyes of a starlet." I'm sure it made me blush, but it kind of creeps me out now. Did you hear about those accusations against him, and his LA doctor friend? They go back to the forties or fifties, I think. The story is they both gang raped this young girl, about twelve, on the kitchen floor. She was the doctor's daughter. The son believes his father is the black dahlia murderer. She had "the eyes of a starlet" too.
Once, while waiting outside a classroom to get Ron Howard's autograph (he stopped by sometimes as a kind of celebrity teaching assistant), I started reading the bulletin board postings for jobs and things. (Never got the autograph btw. He was whisked off by security at the end of the class because one of his stalkers since childhood was spotted on campus.) In between the ones seeking "attractive young models" and people wanting help with their student movies, there was a notice about internships at this one studio. I copied the information down, and much to my surprise got a call back, then an interview. Somehow, I got the job.
Cut, now, to a few months later. I had spent most of my days shuttling memos between various executives, and others, and bringing them lunch from the commissary. The execs were mostly nice, if they noticed you at all, but I came to resent the smell of sushi. To this day, it is the smell of unpaid labor.
So it came as a great relief when my boss pulled up in his golf cart and told me to get in. There was this audition, he said, and they needed someone to check the actors in.
"What's it for?" I asked.
"A movie," he said. "It isn't ours." He told me the name of the producer, which I recognized, but I'm sure at the time couldn't name a single credit. As if reading my mind, and probably to save me embarrassment, he listed some of his recent movies, which included more than a couple adaptations from a big time novelist.
When we got to the place, one of the numbered stages on the lot, a woman came out and approached the cart.
"Is this the person?" the woman said. Yes, she was told. "Congratulations. You're the third one in almost as many days." She handed me a folder stuffed with files, a blue ink pad, and a star-shaped rubber stamp. "The kids are all here," she said. "Or at least we hope they are. Your job is to check them in." The woman got into the cart, and as they drove off my boss waved his hand at me, wishing me luck. I could hear the woman say, "she's gonna need it."
I went inside, where two men in folding chairs were going over head shots. One of them, I'd later learn, was a consultant known about town as a fixer. The other would be the cameraman for the audition, but he was known primarily - including now to you all - as a photographer. His favorite subject? Surprise! He is now deceased, and has been the subject of at least one past blind. The third person present, a casting assistant, came over to let me know that the actors were gathered outside, and that "they" wanted to get started in "ten" (all fingers raised).
She escorted me to the opposite end of the building, and opened the door to a chaos of boys, almost all of them blond and blue eyed. There were tweens and teens, and all were dressed like surfer kids. One of the boys had brought a boom box and was blasting 7 Seconds' "99 Red Balloons." A group of ten or twelve were gathered around him, slam dancing, a plume of pot smoke rising from the eye of the storm. Another couple kids were kicking a soccer ball against the big door of the opposite stage, where the bell lights signaled a shoot in progress. There was drinking, and smoking, and needless to say, barely an adult in sight.
Sizing things up, I knew I had to take care of the kickball kids first. "Could you please not do that?" I said to them. Neither listened. I went over and tried to grab the ball. The boy with it fought back. The other one said, "What are you doing lady? He's a big star." (It turned out his stardom rested on a role in...an Atari ad - Cosmic Ark I think it was.) Finally, I wrestled the ball away from him. "You'll get it back after the audition."
"As for the rest of you," I shouted, "you are all in trouble." No one turned around. And, just then, a cart screeched around the corner at top speed, briefly riding on two wheels, and nearly plowing into the crowd. The two boys, both twelve, had stolen it. The one in the passenger seat? At the time he had a role in an episode of a long running family series - one where a number of young actors got their start. He would go on though to become an adult star with a taste for danger. It's hard not to look back at that day and say you couldn't see it coming.
(The only one I recognized, and this was only in retrospect, would have a breakout role on a series a few years later. His sibling on that series would have a major role in another one before long - this was a big hit. He was one of the few obviously nice kids there, sitting against the wall of the stage doing his homework, and eating a banana. I think he was passed over for this one because they saw him as too young. I'm guessing he's probably grateful for that, or should be.)
I stormed back inside and grabbed a bullhorn and some half milk crates from a stage cart, finally ready for crowd control. By the time I got back outside though, the production across the way had been halted, and the director - there to do green screen work for a sci-fi movie filmed in the UK - was standing there, red-faced with anger. Just as he was about to say something though the movie's female star appeared, in costume, and one by one the boys stopped what they were doing, and turned to look at her. Her icy stare, and bad a** image, was enough - like if mom was also an action hero. The boys began dropping their cigarettes, crushing them with the soles of their shoes, and pouring out their beers.
Then she summoned me over with her finger. I was terrified. When I got there I could barely speak, but nervously explained that it was my first day, and had never done anything like this before. She took my hand and said, soothingly, "if you need any more help with them just let me know." I thanked her, and she and the director went back inside.
With a surge of confidence, I took up the bull horn and told the boys that they would be searched by security before entering the stage, and that if any contraband was found they would be sent home or to juvie. By the end of it, I had several crates full: not just the boom box, bong, and soccer ball, but a Gremlins lunch box with a flask full of whiskey, several bags of cocaine (along with a freebase pipe), cigarettes galore, cans of beer, even a copy of "Hustler" magazine. "Where did you get this?" I asked the boy. "My agent buys it for me," he said. Who was his agent? I think you can guess the answer.
I had them all line up, single file, military style, and one by one I checked them in, stamping their file and the top of one hand with a blue star, and highlighting their name on the list. Then I went over the list to see if anyone was absent. Sure enough, just one. I didn't recognize the absent boy's name but there was an accompanying head shot for each actor, so if I had to go looking for him at least I would know who I was looking for. (Of course, it's all coming out now how negligent and even complicit Hollywood gatekeepers could be about not protecting kids from abuse. But this being the 80s, when missing children were all over the news, as well as milk cartons, Hollywood had to seem like it had at least a nominal concern about literally not losing people's children.)
I left the boys with a casting assistant, then called his agent first though to see if he had maybe just bailed on the audition. The woman who answered was rude to me, apparently offended that she had to take time out of her day to help find a missing child, and even more so to be talking to an intern about it. After being on hold for at least ten minutes, she told me the boy had been dropped off at the studio a half hour earlier.
"Do you know where?" I asked her, or something like that.
"And how would I know that?"
"He's your client."
"He's your problem now," she said, and hung up. I took the cart that the two boys had been driving, and a walkie talkie, and made the rounds of the backlot. Finally, a tip came in: someone had reported two llamas loose on the lot. I knew it had to be him.
When I got there, he was talking to the animals, and sharing his slurpee with them.
"*****," I asked.
"Yeah?"
"This is not a petting zoo," I said.
"They looked sad," he replied.
"I think you're supposed to be at an audition," I said.
"Couldn't find it," he said.
I asked why he didn't ask someone for directions.
He joked, in reply, that he was practicing as lost boy for the eventual role of lost man, in which he wouldn't ask for directions even if his life depended on it.
"You know you're in a lot of trouble now," I told him.
"How come?"
"These animals don't belong to you. You let them out of their trailer."
"I liberated them," he said.
I grabbed him by the ear, and pulled him into the cart. Just then though the posse arrived: security, the studio shrink, and the owner of the llamas himself...
Stay tuned for the final part...coming on Monday!

Blind Item #12 - I Remember You Well At The Plaza Hotel - Part 2 - An INSIDERHER Blind Item
She also got tons of celebrity gossip. She was too much the lady to repeat really good dirt, but she did tell me about a man who stayed for long periods at the Plaza. She knew I was an old movie fan, so she told me all about this actor, who she persisted in calling Gary till her dying day.
I was a fan, but I was also a kid, when I first heard these stories. Since much more information about this complicated man’s life comes to light, these stories make more sense.
Actually, even as a kid reading movie star biography, I knew this actor had a reputation for being a cheapskate. I’ve since learned it was far more than just being cheap, and far more than just a reputation! His most famous live-in situation with another A list actor was the subject of a famous quote from a famous blonde actress. She quipped about the actor not paying bills. When she said it, it was hilarious.
Apparently, even though he is now ranked as the number one most popular actor/leading man in the world/in some polls, a comedic genius-the real man behind the stunning exterior was dark, depressed, looking for salvation anywhere he could find it. Cold, calculating, paranoid, mean, suspicious, all applied to the Great Actor. He was, no doubt-a great actor, and a great Hollywood movie star. After all, who better than he embodied the handsome gay star who pretended to be straight his entire life? He made a living playing out this game, and it can’t have been easy. New documentaries & biographies about his childhood miseries make these reveals more pathetic than anything.
He apparently would hole up for days at a time at the Plaza, asking for no service & no visitors. He had a cheap dime store hot plate, and came to the Plaza with bags of canned soups. He apparently lived on booze, soup he heated up himself, and a tin of saltine crackers.
There was a lot of alcohol, a lot of black moods, and a refusal to pay for anything more than was absolutely necessary. It was perhaps pathological. It was certainly deeply engrained in his personality. This was a side of himself he never, once, displayed on film. It’s too bad he couldn’t have gone there, but after all, his reputation now couldn’t be better. He is numero uno! Above Gable & Bogart!
He had known abandonment, poverty, and was unable to relax & enjoy his wealth. Apparently, the face he presented publicly was very different from the image of perfection we saw onscreen.

Blind Items Revealed #5
This one named A/A- list rapper has fallen from his heights. He is going to fall further once word gets around of his recent performance. He has been banned from that venue and the word has spread to not hire him unless you are willing to take a chance he will show up and bail on you after a couple minute long performance. He would rather party.

With a career going down in flames and no one wanting anything to do with a new movie, this permanent A list child molesting director is passing out money like candy for anyone who will publicly come to his defense.

This A+/A list mostly action movie actor is telling his soon to be official ex that he wants to get back together and the pair have been hooking up a couple times each week. It is probably news to the other women he also hooks up with.

Blind Item #6 - An INSIDERHER Blind Item
I was invited as a guest on the set of a huge budgeted film with lots of FX & big names. The director was a prominent well respected & well liked actor/director, who has since passed.
I had lunch at the director’s table, and he was low-key, kind, and just a very down to earth guy. I’m glad there are still action figures of him around in people’s collections. He should never be forgotten.
Usually, the lead actor will sit at the director’s table. Not this time! The actor, who was in full facial makeup for his character of the day, sat alone, moping over his lunch.
Because I really admired the actor & am not shy, I walked over, introduced myself to actor, and hoped for the best. Keep in mind that this was a closed set lunch for only the above the line stars & producers!
He looked at me like I had two heads, and promptly bolted from the table!
What? I’ve never been so embarrassed in my life! This was in front of the director & other prominent people. I was literally stunned. He ran away from me like I had just propositioned him! Or threatened him.
The director is very solicitous, and then he gets a call from the actor’s people, asking who I was & why I had spoken to their precious star! I was embarrassed, angry, felt humiliated-but also confused! What on earth was going on in this guy’s mind? Did he think he was some kind of an untouchable god?
This really hurt me. For a long time after this I didn’t want to meet anyone I admired, for fear of a similar occurrence. Happily, that hasn’t been the case.
I recently read that the actor I terrified has an autistic child. I think perhaps he, too, is on the Asperger spectrum, because that could explain his irrational behavior. Not a dazzler in real life, though he’s given some magnificent performances. Kudos to the director for making so many unforgettable films. He is an icon.
It was long ago, but I still wonder what was in his head that day.

Blind Item #3 - Mexican Restaurant Blues - An INSIDERHER Blind Item
I stopped into a cute New Mexican restaurant that had recently opened in Pacific Palisades-home of the stars. It was practically empty, but I felt like an enchilada, so I went in and sat down. The place was pretty much empty, it being a week day afternoon. As I scrolled through the menu, I noticed a small, pathetic looking creature huddled alone at a one-seater at the restaurant. Even with tears in her big blue eyes, no makeup, and her famous tousled blonde hair looking like it hadn’t been brushed in days, there was no mistaking who she was. And, there was also no doubt that she wasn’t preparing for a film role. This was a genuinely distraught woman. Her sadness was so private that I wouldn’t have thought of intruding upon it. She mostly looked down, or stared blankly out the window.
All I could think was this: here’s this famous movie star who people assume leads a charmed life, weeping & alone in a Mexican restaurant. It doesn’t matter who you are, your heart can be broken.
That day, I thought I saw the saddest little girl in the world, not the star of countless hit films. She & her ex have been in the news recently, fighting over who cheated, or who cheated more. I dunno, and don’t much care. On that day, she was one miserable girl, and I truly pitied her. I also like her on film. I think a lot of people felt she had a natural sense of honesty about her. Even against a permanent A+ list actor, she shone, and made people want to watch her smile.
I hope she’s doing a lot more of it these days.

Blind Item #1 - Reader Blind Item
As I proceeded to give him the number, the large sliding door opened and a man who was trying to keep a couple of jumpy young girls (assuming they were his own twin daughters, dressed the same) inside, identified himself as her “manager” and asked what was going on, and the chauffeur said that there was no one here and he was trying to ask me who to call. Another, smaller figure was in the back, looking very subdued. The manager had looked a little irate and seemed that he had wanted to get settled down to some place to stay as soon as possible. After he went back in the car and shut the door, the Chauffeur said that he would call the number I gave him or else take them to a nearby hotel that his other past clients had preferred. He then divulged who the celebrity was, while going through his phone and proudly showing off who else he had driven. I looked again at the window and could not believe how skinny this celebrity (A+ list mostly movie actress) was in real life, but had even more questions about why she was here alone with her “manager” and his kids, and at the very least not with a few of her own. There was definitely an air of sadness with her body language.
The chauffeur assured me things would be fine and said I could go off with my friend, and so we left. Later, I tried to find out who this manager was, and it in fact was not her manager, but I matched the face of this manager to be that of her lawyer. What was made even more interesting was that I know that her husband at the time had family that once had roots in the area but were no longer here. I could not for the life of me figure out what she was doing in this city, with her lawyer, and his kids (who I’m 99% sure were also not accompanied by their mother on this trip).
The next week I spoke to the complex manager and while I was told that even though they knew a guest was coming, it was handled through a third party agency who failed to show up to hand off the keys and the gate codes. When I told them who it was, they were shocked! They usually hear of some of the high-profile clients that stay there after they are gone but had they known that someone this big was coming, they would have arranged to have had someone there for a little longer that Sunday.
It was exactly a month later that a not-so-Nice trip pulled the trigger to cause the celebrity guest to file for divorce from her A+ list mostly movie actor husband at the time. I have no doubt in my mind that perhaps this visit might have had something to do with the planning of it, in the very least.

Blind Item #16 - Just Plain Nasty - An INSIDERHER Blind Item
I thought he was a great guy! One thing he did, for friends & clients, was having regular movie nights at his Beverly Hills home. There were drinks, food, and then a film that had yet to be released. Usually, someone at the party was in the screened flick.
These movie nights were for fun & bonding between Super Agent & his clients.
They were social & networking events, not thinly disguised business meetings.
Which is what made it so strange when this A list, or was A list at the time-actor showed up early, had a hissy fit, and wouldn’t leave!
My first reaction was: ‘His feet are tiny!’
He’s not a tall man, but I swear, he was wearing sneakers that looked like they were made for a 12 year old. His face was red with rage.
Guests started coming in, and Super Agent was trying to get the Angry Man to simmer down, out to leave & see him the next day at his office. Angry Man continued to act like a real jerk, and finally Super Agent managed to get him outside.
I’d tried to diffuse Angry myself with a casual conversation. He didn’t even turn to look at me. Just stared straight ahead. Whew! Rude!
So, when stories about Angry Man being a well known creep started coming out, I wasn’t surprised. I’m surprised there aren’t more!
I’d believe the worst about this guy. It was way too close an encounter.

Random Photos Part Two
Claire Danes and Mandy Patinkin talking about Homeland.
Jessica Alba not talking about the Bad Boys television reboot in which she is starring with Gabrielle Union.
Chrissy Teigen wearing something from the Steven Seagal collection while out with John Legend.
Jennifer Lawrence has a new guy so we are in for a year or so of dating photos with David O Russell always in the shadows watching followed by a breakup and six months of photos with her dog and Darren Aronofsky while David O Russell is seen in the background.
Early this morning, when the shots slightly wore off, Shania Twain was finally able to stop smiling. Here she is with Kelsea Ballerini.
Colin Firth and his wife Livia look like any couple you know who had to reveal to the world the story of an affair because the other guy turned into a crazed stalker who might have killed them both. Happens everyday.
