Blind Item #11

This foreign born A list mostly movie actress who is an Academy Award winner/nominee has no idea whether her ex actually has poisoned people BUT is very familiar with his complaints toward the company he thinks is monopolizing the rum business.

Which Oscar winning actress did Clooney date?

MontanaMarriott said...

Charlize dated Clooney in 2000

Brayson87 said...

It's kind of a big jump from bitching about monopolies to poisoning people.

Cassie said...

Renee Zellwegger/Kenny Chesney???

sandybrook said...

NM. Bridget Jones is a Texan....

Tricia13 said...

Who I guessed on other blind (as well as Clooney). Wasn’t sure he had a rum company or shares though.

Brayson87 said...

Charlize has excellent taste in men there, no wonder she's making her adopted son wear dresses.

Troy Dyer said...

The Ches is the only one I know of with a rum line

MontanaMarriott said...

Kenny Chesney and Sammy Hagar have rum lines according to this:

Count Jerkula said...

Bacardi is stellar booze. Captain Morgans is for broads and queers.

Do Tell said...

Sammy Hagar also has a line of rum.

Do Tell said...

whoops, too slow to post.

gauloise said...

Arent RZ's parents Swiss? so the foreign born could be a mistake? Kind of like Don McClean being in a band or Carla Bruni being an actress.

Do Tell said...

The only thing is that Renee is not foreign born and Chesney's other actress ex has not been Oscar nommed.

Tricia13 said...

I think the original blind also stated the person is a Permanent A list actor...?

Do Tell said...

Clooney and Gerber sold Casamigos, otherwise I would wonder if they were trying to branch out into rum. I wonder if they still have a finger in the pie there though.

Vita said...

This sounds like a continuation of the DR blinds, only the product is rum, not whiskey. And, this would be Charlize knowing of SP's complaints about the dominant rival brand.

This is flat out creepy!

Gator said...

Clooney sold his TEQUILA company.

Morninglorri said...

Sean penn has a Haitian rum company and Charlize know she hates his competition. Poisons the batch of rum that was used to fill mini bar bottles. Batch sent to Dominican resorts. Case closed

Buckley said...

Ron Jeremy has a rum line called Ron de Jeremy.

Flashy Vic said...

Well it's a rum do and no mistake.

Hanniam said...

Hey, called it on the rum! Cool. Sounds like Sean Penn/Charlize are the odds on favorites now.

HouellebecqGurl said...

Look, this is silly unless BP or George Clooney own local homemade rum businesses. What's happening in the DR is obvious. The resorts are selling their clientele top shelf booze, making out invoices saying they're serving top shelf booze, but instead are subbing it with some locally made hooch that's high in ethanol which is poisoning their visitors, and pocketing the difference. A lot of times the local authorities are in on the schemes themselves, getting a taste of the profits to turn a blind eye.
South and Central America is run solely on grift, corruption, and powered by the cartels.
Stay outta there, ffs.
They just see Americans as the ultimate marks, don't be naive.

HushHush said...

I read today about that the poison is a mosquito pesticide. If so that's intentional, like the 1982 tyelenal cyanide poisonings in Chicago.
Though what Hollenbec is saying follows Occam's Razor, and is the most logical answer.
I have all these friends who travel to places like this, and even on high end resorts, it's as safe in as far as their hires.

Thank heavens I only drink Appleton rum. Having cared for patients injured in third world countries if you vacation internally please buy the travel insurance that provides for air transportation home. It's worth every penny if you need it.

Anonymous said...

Morninglorrie got it. It's got to be Sean Penn, Charlize Theron and a batch shipped to the Dominican Republic. Scary. Penn is a psychopath.

hothotheat said...

Penn/Theron

Weekittylass said...

Count, Bacardi is trash. Cuba makes the best rum but, since we can’t get it here easily, you should try Mount Gay or Cockspur Rum. You should be able to find Cockspur in the NY Metro area. Both are Bajan and Cockspur is so gotdamn smooth, they barely make enough to supply the island, let alone the world.

Brayson87 said...

+1 Ann, I've known people that got stuck in hospitals in other countries, would have been more convenient to be local.

Brayson87 said...

I always go for vodka, easier to see or taste if something is amiss, plus works great in a water bottle. ;)

Flashy Vic said...

Bushmills whiskey for me. I love Black Bush. And also the whiskey.

HushHush said...

Appleton's is great, as is Mount Gay. I met the actor Craig McGinlay who plays Captain Morgan in commercials, on one of those gigs, awesome guy.

If this blind is true, and there are people poisoning others for profit indirectly, then I hope they get everything that is coming to them.
Wasn't Sean Penn part of how they captured El-Chapo? This would be a great way to get back at him.

Aquagirl said...

+1:@Ann. Plus it covers other things such as travel delays and it’s quite inexpensive.

@HushHush: I rarely drink rum but definitely vote for Mount Gay and/or Goslings

Mango said...

Waiting for the Count to comment on Vic’s last post.... 😏

RobertaJoan said...

Father - Swiss-German

Mother - Nordic, leaning towards Norway and possible Sami ancestry, Finnish, Swedish..

The usual suspects

Count Jerkula said...

Mango: u like vic, i prefer the choco taco to be shaved or waxed.

Count Jerkula said...

I'm not lookin for a sippin rum, weekitty, just something to put in coca cola when i am playing catch up at the bar.

Count Jerkula said...

*unlike

TheBPlot said...

Ummm her ex had major money before the liqor company. Hes not poisoning innocent strangers. These poisonings are being done by a local with a grudge against the resort or a sick fetish to watch people in trauma.

Hanniam said...

Could we actually be seeing the results of a water hygiene issue in DR? Watered down drinks plus unsafe water is likely to affect people from countries with relatively safe and reliable water supplies. Bottled drinks are generally regarded as safe but if they’re being refilled or watered down just to cut costs, the risks would fall disproportionately on American tourists. (Though I still find it weird there are no reports of Canadians, Aussies, Brits...)

Well into the 20th century it was common for Westerners to dress their sons in dresses, for boys. FDR and Dewey both have portraits of them in dresses. Same is true in numerous works of art. I cracked up the first time I realized it was boys in dresses in all those French paintings. Funny, but true. Not defending Theron, just humorous.
