Married TV Guy Having Affair with Producer
Actress Fears HD TV
Women on a Diet Need Not Apply
Janet Charlton – This actor is the kind of guy that every single woman over thirty wants to meet. He’s tall, dark, and handsome and successful on TV as well as the big screen. He’s carved out a career playing “the boyfriend” to leading ladies. But this down-to-earth guy is freakier than he looks. He never goes out without a jar of mayonnaise in his backpack. He cheats on his famous girlfriend with frisky gals willing to spread the mayo all over his body.
Drama at a New Television Show
BlindGossip – There’s a television series that’s being carried by a major network. Not a completely original concept, but well-written with a likeable lead. In fact, the entire project was really sold on the strength of the star of the show, for whom this is a breakthrough role. Big problem behind the scenes, though. The star has a substance-abuse problem. The show is being filmed now, and the producers are torn between wanting to get a bunch of episodes wrapped despite the star’s erratic behavior, to rewrite scenes or entire episodes without the star, or to shut everything down while the star goes to rehab. Absolute last resort: recasting the lead, a very unappealing prospect.
Show Shuffle will Produce Fireworks
BlindGossip – This television show has seen several personnel shifts over the last couple of years. There is another major shift coming up. The shocking part of this is that the person leaving may be replaced with someone they hate and who aggravates the heck out of the producers. Why this candidate? The producers want ratings and Emmys, and the replacement is a known quantity for generating lots of controversy and ratings and buzz. So they have held their noses and made an offer, and are now waiting for an answer.
Groping Under the Table
The Cost of Staying in the Closet
Who is going to have to pay through the nose to stay in the closet? Sometimes a gay actor will marry a member of the opposite sex in the hopes that it will boost their hetero credibility and expand the range of roles offered to them. The trouble with this strategy is that if the relationship doesn’t last, the ex has a tremendous amount of leverage over the actor. Such is the case of this network TV star whose fake marriage is over. The star’s attorney is trying to get their client to settle quickly and quietly to prevent the ex from spilling secrets. However, the star is now weighing the hefty cost of paying off the ex versus outing themselves.
Bad Behavior Equals Dead Character
BlindGossip – Which character on an popular television drama is going to be killed off? While the character is one of the key members of the cast, the actor or actress is acting so badly that they have caused friction within the cast and have exhausted the patience of the show’s head honcho.
New Hint: It’s a male actor.
Holiday Spirit is Just an Act
This A list actor on a hit network comedy show has been telling anyone who will listen about all the holiday giving he has been doing and how he has adopted several families in the Los Angeles area to give them a Christmas since they cannot afford one on their own. He talks about how he has been buying gifts and is going to be bringing them a holiday meal and it goes on and on and on. He isn’t doing anything like that at all. He just likes that it makes him looks good. When his publicist found about the ruse, she decided to find an actual family and make good on at least some of the crap her client was spinning. When she approached the client about visiting the family she found, he declined saying he didn’t have the time but autographed a couple of DVDs from his television show for them instead. c
