Blind Gossip Blind Item - Nutbag and Douchebag

This blind item involves two huge male stars. They don’t like each other… and we’re going to tell you the reason why!

We’ll call them Tall and Short.

Tall is a handsome actor who frequently teams up with one of his childhood friends on projects. He has had great career success and has more than one Academy Award to his name.

Short is a very charismatic and religious guy. He has been nominated for an Oscar multiple times, but has never won. His shoes help him look taller than he is.

A few years ago, Short was cast as the lead in a movie with a political bent. He dropped out of the project to do something else, and his role was offered to Tall.

For some reason, Short was offended by this, and said something like, “I can’t believe they offered that douchebag my role!”

Well, somehow that comment got back to Tall.

Tall’s response? “I can’t believe that nutbag has the nerve to call ME a douchebag! Hey, does he have an Oscar yet?”

And, of course, that comment eventually got back to Short. The two men have disliked each other ever since.

As a side note, Tall eventually dropped the role, too, and it went to a third famous actor who doesn’t have any kind of baggy nickname. Yet.

Kardashian Korner

Some dude named Pilot Jones, who suspiciously has a new track about to drop, has made allegations that Rob Kardashian threatened him over Blac Chyna. TMZ reports that two-year-old pictures of Pilot and Blac Chyna making out recently surfaced, and it apparently enraged the #SockMogul, who allegedly threatened to throw his weight around, which is quite the hefty threat. LAPD's threat management unit is investigated some text messages where Rob threateningly says, "Leave my wife alone. I'm not playing with you." Really? That's what the big deal is?

There are allegedly other texts where Rob threatens bodily harm. I'm guessing they are things like, "I will fill up a pair of Arthur George socks with nickels and beat you silly like Homey D. Clown #SockMogul #ShopArthurGeorge.com," or "I will spray Viviscal in your eyes so you can't see who's kicking your ass #HairGrowth #Sponsored." Because what's better than mixing threats with a business plug?

The Gossip Life Blind Item - Heroin Heroine

This  A-list actress found herself interviewed by the DEA after the death of a friend. Revelations included her 'former addictions' to heroin and cocaine, as well as her ongoing eating disorders.

'I thought she was high at the time,' says my source. 'Basic questions would get rapid, long-winded answers where she incriminated herself and several others. She's fortunate she's in the position she is or she would be in a state penitentiary.'

Carl Reiner Reflects Back on his 94 Years

Carl Reiner has written another memoir, titled Now I'm 94. Reiner recently sat down for an interview with the LA Times to talk about the book; here are some of the highlights from that interview:


You created and starred in influential TV shows, you did live performances like the one with Mel Brooks, “The 2,000-Year-Old Man,” and yet lately you’ve turned to writing books. Why?
"It’s a trip with immortality! I bought a book that was written in 1781 and it still exists – it’s Benjamin Franklin’s “Fart Proudly.” I also wrote a book on farts and I said, look at that – it exists. When you put it down on paper, you exist forever. Of all media, this is the one I really like most, because it comes from your head, and the people read it -- and you don’t have to get on a stage.

I see actress Hedy Lamarr in your book here – once declared “the most beautiful woman in the world.”

"She was sitting next to me on a panel show and I was talking to the host, and she reached into her pocketbook and took out a cigarette and I, being a gentleman, without looking at her, went like this [mimes a cigarette lighter] and I heard this voice say, Carl, vat are you going to do – light my lozenge? She’d taken out a lozenge, not a cigarette! My wife and I drove her home one night and saw the greatest collection of art we’d ever seen – not only the great artists but the best examples of Van Gogh, Gaugin and Renoir."

This is your fifth memoir, if I’m counting correctly, and it does have some differences from the others.
"The first thing most of us do when picking up a new book is scan the laudatory blurbs your friends have written. You’re always looking for a quote from somebody famous. I have decided that in lieu of again pestering important people like Mel Brooks, Billy Crystal, Bill Maher, George Clooney, and asking Hillary and Bill Clinton and Barack and Michelle Obama to write blurbs, I got a quote that I think is really good here: “After four hours at the wheel of the Mississippi paddleboat, transporting folks to their homes, I am afforded no greater pleasure than retiring to my stateroom, turning on my RCA seven-inch television set and watching Carl Reiner on ‘The Dick Van Dyke Show.’”

Mark Twain?

"You gave it away!"

Is there anything you wish you had done that you haven’t gotten around to? 
"No, I’ve done it. I wish I could hang around a little longer to see what goes on. This is another way to achieve longevity: Don’t think in terms of how many years, think in nanoseconds. If I live two more years, look at all the nanoseconds I have left."

FKA Twigs Has Some Seriously Fucked Up Views on Relationships

FKA Twigs, who you may know better as Robert Pattinson's fiancΓ©e, recently sat down for an interview with ES Magazine where she had this to say:

On an emotionally abusive past relationship:
“In the relationship I couldn’t communicate. The person I was with was stopping me from explaining how I felt. So the physical manifestation is someone putting their hand in your mouth. But there’s an element, too, of liking that as well. It’s messed up. It’s addictive.”

When the interviewer suggests that is a brutal image:
“Violent, or beautiful? It’s kind of sexy, like emotional abuse can be tender. That’s why it’s messed up. If you are in an emotionally abusive relationship, it can be tender, that’s why you stay. And you stay because there’s a poorly part of your mind that likes it.” 

On dancing:
“It became a chore. Dancing isn’t a job, it’s an existence, you know?...I was told point-blank that no matter how hard I tried, no matter what I did, I couldn’t be a ballet dancer. I have certain things in my body which aren’t technically good for ballet in the old tradition. Like my pelvis tilts back. I don’t have arches in my feet.” 

Shahs of Sunset Star is Pregnant

Us Weekly reports that Shahs of Sunset star Asa Soltan Rahmati, 40, is expecting her first child with longtime boyfriend Jermaine Jackson Jr., 39. The couple have been together for six years. Asa announced the news on her Instagram.

Mariah Carey's Billion Dollar Breakup

Mariah Carey and her billionaire fiancΓ© James Packer have split. Let's get to the root of what went wrong, shall we?

First up, we have the official statement to Entertainment Tonight:
“Mariah and James had a fight in Greece, and have not seen each other since. The fight was not because of any cheating allegations or excessive spending by Mariah. James is one of the most successful businessmen in the world. They are trying to work it out. Right now, they’re not sure if they will stay together. They are discussing it, and plan to release an official statement together about their future.”

Next up, we have the source that blabbed to Page Six:
“They’ve been going through a rocky time, but it is not because of her excessive spending. Mariah been working all the time and he’s been out of the country taking care of his own business. They had a fight in Greece, and it isn’t clear if they are going to work things out.

James did not dump Mariah over money, nor her lavish spending. There’s no way this could be about excessive spending. Yes, she likes her hair and makeup done, and, of course she goes shopping, she might buy five pairs of Louboutins, but there’s no way her spending is excessive by his standards. He moves his icebreaker yacht from country to country on a whim, he regularly lends it to celebrities, if he wants pizza he moves it to Italy. He has a private jet, fully staffed houses in LA, Aspen, Argentina, and an island in Australia. He’s building another mega-yacht, and developing an island with Robert De Niro, and he has his movie deal with Warner Bros. All this wildly exceeds anything Mariah could spend on her wardrobe.


This isn’t a typical relationship, they spend months apart. He’s a billionaire and she’s Mariah Carey, they both travel all over the world and try to meet regularly somewhere in the middle. But recently it has been hard, she has been touring and next month she goes to Mexico then Hawaii, and she’s resuming her Beacon dates in New York for Christmas.”

Hmmm, methinks they doth protest a bit much about the spending there.

Finally, we have TMZ, who has sources from Mariah's camp saying that James "is not in his right mind" and "mentally unstable." Coming from someone who had an on-air breakdown on TRL, that's saying something! There's some murky story about a fight on a Greek yacht, James got "violent" (but no word on who that violence was directed towards), and an allegation that James did something to Mariah's assistant (maybe that's where the violence comes into play?). At any rate, TMZ gives the odds of a reconciliation at less than zero, with a fuck ton of bad blood on both sides.

Blind Gossip Blind Item - Discount Tickets to the Shit Show

Get your tickets to the shit show!

There is so much chaos behind the scenes of this poker-faced singer’s new album release that it may be more entertaining than the music itself!

"She fucked up the timing of the release. [Her Manager] told her “Don’t do it right before the election!” but she wouldn’t listen to him. She wanted to rush it out before all the other holiday releases.  Then the publicist fucked up her interview prep. They should have known that the interviewer would ask some sort of political question. She didn’t expect it and came off looking like an asshole.

Now it’s a total shit show. She is crying and yelling at everybody. The album’s already in the discount bin, there is no hope that there will be some big stadium tour because there’s no way she can fill the seats, and [Her Manager] is losing money on her. He’s pissed because he told her this would happen if she didn’t take his advice. Now [The Manager] is talking about quitting and [Singer] is talking about firing [The Publicist]."

The Gossip Life Blind Item - The Handler

This A-lister made his career on being the approachable every man, but over the last decade he has completely changed and it's terrifying to those close to him.  He has this handler that advises him on all aspects of his life. You're not even allowed to talk with him until the handler grants permission. He's surrounded himself with sycophants but secretly they're all creeped out by his relationship with the handler. It's like something out of a cult. There will be books written about this after his death.

He's also known to have corridors cleared upon his arrival. Not a soul allowed.

Patton Oswalt Talks Loss

Warning: You'll probably need tissues with this post. Patton Oswalt, who lost his wife Michelle McNamara earlier this year, recently sat down for an interview with the New York Times. Here is an excerpt from the article on Michelle's cause of death:


Worried about her health, her husband, the comedian Patton Oswalt, suggested that she take a night to “sleep until you wake up.” It was a phrase they used to describe what could seem like an impossible luxury for the working parents of a 7-year-old girl. So on April 21, Ms. McNamara took some Xanax and went to bed.

After getting up early, he helped his daughter, Alice, get dressed, packed her lunch and drove her to school, then picked up a cup of his wife’s favorite coffee. Back home, he went to their bedroom, where she was snoring. He gently placed the Americano on a bedside table. It was 9:40 a.m.

Mr. Oswalt went to his home office, answered emails, did two phone interviews and noticed some sad news online: Prince had died. He shot off a series of tweets and returned to his bedroom to find his wife still in bed. She wasn’t breathing. It was 12:42 p.m. When the paramedics arrived, they pronounced her dead.

Patton, on the coroners still not declaring a cause of death six months later:


“I have a feeling it might have been an overdose. That’s what the paramedics there were saying while I was screaming and throwing up.”

On the worst day of his life:
“The worst is when I told my daughter the next day.”

On how comic books portray death:
“If Bruce Wayne watched his parents murdered at 9, he wouldn’t become this cut hero. He would become Gotham’s most annoying slam poet. How about someone dies, and they just get fat and angry and confused? But no, immediately, they’re at the gym.”

On coping with grief:
“I found out the hard way these past few months that alcohol really doesn’t help.”

On depression vs grief:
“Depression is more seductive. Its tool is: ‘Wouldn’t it be way more comfortable to stay inside and not deal with people?’ Grief is an attack on life. It’s not a seducer. It’s an ambush or worse. It stands right out there and says: ‘The minute you try something, I’m waiting for you.’”

On how Michelle shaped his comedy career:
“Before I met her, I was in a snotty, sort of slacker Largo scene. A lot of my stuff was making fun of abstract pop culture in a way that was removed emotionally. When you get to ‘Werewolves and Lollipops,’ we’re on the way to getting married, I’m way more vulnerable. I’m not always articulate in what I’m saying. And maybe I have some problems, too. You see that progression, and that’s all because of her. She said to me: ‘Be honest and vulnerable about yourself.’”

On working to finish his late wife's book:
“We can finish the book, but it was tangential to the work, which was: She was going to solve this crime. She didn’t want credit for it. She wanted him to be locked up. She was close to figuring it out. It would give her bad nightmares. In comic-book terms,” he said. “I was married to a great crime fighter.”

Hollywood Street King Blind Item - It's Going Down

She is America’s undisputed reigning reality porn star. Just ask Bill Whitaker — the dude she recently gave up those 60 Minutes of her bragging about her use of the Internet of Things to monetize her lies.

It’s a situation one urban blog had only recently gotten hip to — two-years after sources say the gossip outlet “allied up” with her and her klan!!! Know how? We’re told the video vixen led a classic bait and switch move on the three-letter headed blog outfit (and I’m not talking about T-M-Z), by leading them to publish her Paris wedding pics only to later serve them with a cease and desist. [side note: take heed to what happens when “bloggers” are really secret fans of fools].

“They thought they got an exclusive when they published her wedding pics from Paris but they really got played by a hacker.”

It’s since become klear that even her lies about lies she’s caught telling … her lies on top of lies … seem to hold monetary value. That’s according to not only the “horse’s mouth” but also according to one source who tells us our sex tape queen turned Calabasas soccer mom “had her people give the site an anonymous tip about her getting robbed in Paris”.

Dig the Drop:

“It’s all part of what they do to make the press … make the blogs … go viral … trending on social media. That’s where they make they’re money … they’re making a fortune off of social media.
Once they got the shine she ordered her lawyers to send them a cease and desist and ___ got punked again when they pulled the wedding pics — her goofy husband and her became allies with the site — claiming they were gonna sue. It’s all part of her circus act, clowning for press. First, she’s gonna sue. Then, she’s not gonna sue. It’s all fake content … nothing about ’em is real.

She’s widely recognized for her starring a role in setting off the celebrity sex tape, sending it trending 
… just ask that dude who “Hit it First”.

As for that three-letter “urban” b-blog that fell for the oki-doke? Well they seem to have twisted trumped up fantasies of following in the white privileged footsteps of an overnight Black news outfit.


Now, can you guess who the Beverly Hill’s, Calabasas, slut housewife? and, who is the media outlet? Here’s a clue: The founder of the website has a pair of beady eyes!!!

Pete Davidson Credits Kid Cudi With Saving His Life

SNL's Pete Davidson recently appeared on The Breakfast Club, where he talked about rapper Kid Cudi. Here's what he had to say, as reprinted by Page Six:


“[Kid] Cudi’s the best of all. He saved my life. I would’ve killed myself if I didn’t have Kid Cudi. I would’ve killed myself. Absolutely, 100 percent. If you’re 25 and under, I believe Kid Cudi saved your life. I truly believe if ‘Man on the Moon’ didn’t come out, I wouldn’t be here.”

On news that Kid Cudo had checked into rehab for depression and suicidal urges:
“It’s kind of comforting to know your hero goes through the same stuff you do. I think that’s why a lot of kids my age can relate to Cudi and people love him so much is because he’s a very emotional dude. I texted with him last Monday, and he’s in really good spirits. I think I might go see him next week. But he’s in a good place.”

Amber Tamblyn is Pregnant

Signed books for everyone! Page Six reports that Amber Tamblyn, 33, is expecting her first child with husband David Cross, 52. Tamblyn recently announced the news in an essay for Glamour, in which she stated, "Motherhood has been heavily on my mind because I am going to be a mother soon. I’m pregnant, with a daughter on the way. I think constantly about the world I am bringing her into. How much do I have to do, as a daughter and a soon-to-be mother, to change not just the conversation about how women are seen, but the language and conversations are spoken in?” Tamblyn and Cross have been married since 2012.

Here is my latest piece for Glamour. It's personal and important, like this election. "Somewhere between Donald Trump calling Hillary Clinton a woman with “tremendous hate in her heart” and “a nasty woman,” I found myself making a phone call to my mother I was hoping I could avoid forever. A story I shared about an encounter with an ex-boyfriend had gone viral, and I feared she would read about it in the news. When I told her, my mother’s reaction was unshockingly unshocked. “You know,” she began, “I have a story of my own I want to share with you.” Go ahead and fill in the blank of my mother’s story. It’s easy, isn’t it? I was at a _____, and a guy ______. I was _____ years old and the father of one of my friends ______. I was at work and my boss __ ___. I was walking down the street and _ ____. I exist, therefore _______is bound to happen. On the phone, my mother ended with a second story. She told her mother what had happened to her, and I’ll bet you can fill in this blank, too. My grandmother’s response to my mother was, “Boys will be boys. You just have to be really careful around them.” This is what has passed for wisdom, what’s been handed down between women for generations. It continues today. It encourages women to take a backseat in their own lives, telling them it’s okay: men know how to drive and know what they’re doing. It tells us to shush, to not make a fuss, to accept the world as it was built for us. It tells us we shouldn’t ask for more than what we are given, from dollar bills to the Bill of Rights. Boys will be boys and girls will be, what? Quiet. Hungry. Subservient. Game. I’ve been thinking about motherhood a lot lately. What it means to be one, what it means to have one, what it means to know one, what it means to make decisions as one and have conversations as one. I am very lucky to be surrounded by strong mothers, from my own mom to some of my best friends—those who are raising young women to accept themselves and those who are raising young men to accept women.Motherhood has been heavily on my mind because I am going to be a mother soon. I'm pregnant, with a daughter on the way..." (article link in bio)

Blind Gossip Blind Item - Zero Girl

This very famous blonde actress is depressed.

She had a big career for many years. Three to four films a year at her peak, plus a major award or two. She is also one of the nicer people in Hollywood. Good work ethic, treats her colleagues well, etc.

Then she stepped away for a bit of a rest.

When she made her big “come back” this year, she thought everyone would embrace her and her projects. Instead, her first project flopped and she faced criticism over her changed looks.

"[Her female contemporaries] each have a dozen projects in production or in development. [Our actress] has one in post… and she’s booked ZERO new projects since [her newest film] flopped. That’s not good."

Ouch. No wonder she’s depressed!

Stranger Things' Millie Bobby Brown Talks First Kisses

Millie Bobby Brown, star of Stranger Things, 12, recently sat down for an interview with Sia music video star Maddie Ziegler, 14, for Interview Magazine. Here are some of the highlights:

ZIEGLER: "Okay, okay. So I think people are interested in how we first met because they see us on Instagram and want to know how we know each other, but, I mean, we kind of just, like ... We clicked right away."

BROWN: "Yeah. I got tickets to go see So You Think You Can Dance because I've been watching you since I was about 7, and I was crazy when I knew you were actually going to be on the show. And the whole show I was looking at you like, "Please let her look at me." And then they told me that I could go backstage and meet you, and I'm literally, like, taking deep breaths, like, "Oh my goodness," and then you were a normal human being. You were Maddie Ziegler. Then you followed me on Twitter—and I had a meltdown—and the rest is history, really. I finally got your number, and then we met, and we had that very hysterical day where we met some funny people at the pool. We just clicked. I feel like I'm talking to someone else, not you. I feel like I'm talking in the third person. [laughs]"

ZIEGLER: "So when did Stranger Things come out? Before or after you came to So You Think?"

BROWN: "It came out on July 15th, and I came to see your So You Think, like, the 18th or 19th, so it literally just came out. It wasn't very big so I thought you thought I was a crazy fan. I was like, "Have you watched my show yet? It's been out for four days." You were like, "No, I don't watch Stranger Things." The next time I saw you, you had watched it and you kept on teasing me about the kiss, and I thought, "Oh, this girl's crazy.""

ZIEGLER: "I felt so bad because I didn't know what you were talking about. I was like "Okay, she's on a TV show." So then I was like, a lot of people have been talking about this show, and then I watched it, and I was like, "Holy crap, this is like the biggest show right now.""

BROWN: "Yeah, it's pretty big. I mean, we took about seven months to film it, but I think the Duffers have been with it since 2012, when my sister was born. And then in 2015, they were like, "Netflix picked up our show. Now we've got to cast it." They cast Winona and David Harbour, they cast Gaten [Matarazzo], they cast me, and it was going on from there. But really, the Duffers deserve all the recognition that we got, because they made it such an incredible show."

ZIEGLER: "It's something different, because it's based in the '80s. A lot of shows right now are up to date, like in 2016 ..."

BROWN: "Yeah, like with hoverboards. [laughs]"

ZIEGLER: "How will you feel with Eleven as a Halloween costume? Even though, I feel like I already see people dress up as Eleven."

BROWN: "At Comic-Con, people dress up as her. It's very rewarding in a way, and as strange as Stranger Things. People are embracing her character and trying to portray her. I think it's nice to see what different people think of her character. I'm cool with people dressing up as Eleven for Halloween. I definitely want to open my door and give them candy."

ZIEGLER: "We were talking about Stranger Things being your favorite show because you get to kiss Finn [Wolfhard, who plays Mike]."

BROWN: "You're an evil, evil person. You know that? Are you aware of that, Maddie? Yeah, I did have to kiss Finn. At the end of the day, it's only acting, and it's something you have to do, and I would do anything for the show. I cut my hair, I kissed Finn. It was definitely strange.

Naughty Gossip Blind Item - Which Actress Discovered Her Husband's Gay Porn Collection?

Which actress recently discovered that actor husband’s secret gay porn collection when she borrowed his suitcase?

“He has a huge collection of porn on CDs and even had photographs of guys having sex,” sources tell NAUGHTY GOSSIP. “Most people watch porn on their phones or computers but this guy is old fashioned and had everything hidden away in a suitcase deep in his closet.”

Insider tells us that she also found lots of sex toys and even a pair rubber underwear.

She was totally shocked and surprised. They have a good sex life together and have kids – but she had ZERO idea that he was into guys!


She doesn’t plan on saying anything! As long as it’s just a fantasy and he doesn’t act on it – she doesn’t care!
