Lainey Gossip Blind Item - Has She Had Enough Yet?
You remember when he turned up in a small, out-of-the-way-of-Hollywood town not too long ago, for no apparent reason? He was trying to go undercover. Because it turns out, he was there with a woman…a very attractive woman… who is not his wife. They were seen holding hands at the hotel. But can you ever really hide? No. Not even out of the country. Not even by the sea. He ended up getting busted by fans and the local media got a hold of it. And the thing is, he told his wife that he was somewhere else. He and his companion have been having an affair for some time.
Again?
Of course it’s not the first time. He thought it wouldn’t get back to her that time in Oklahoma and that didn’t work out for him either. His wife forgave him then, as she always does, patiently supporting him as he works through his issues and compulsions. But he can’t help himself. When things are going well, he will always find a way to f-ck himself up. And now, finally, she may have had enough. Has she had enough yet? It isn’t instant forgiveness. Then again, he’s not exactly working hard to put it back together either. The temptations are too hard to resist. Last time he set his reputation on fire though, it was easier to forgive. And she helped him rehabilitate his image. Could he come back from betraying the perfect wife, walking out on a perfect home, and breaking up the perfect family?

Blind Gossip Blind Item - Singers Are Just Stringing You Along
Don’t the fans of these two singers know that they are being played?
You see, if things stay the same in their relationship, there is no opportunity for publicity. However, both members of this couple are publicity seekers. That’s why they pull little stunts every week.
He will talk about how he wants to spend time out of the spotlight… and then post public photos on social media. Or they will talk about commitment… and then she will appear in public without her engagement ring. Or she will put on a dress that resembles a wedding gown… and then pretend that she is simply playing dress up. Or they will be photographed on vacation for the umpteenth time… and then claim that they don’t have time to plan a wedding.
Every time they pull one of their little stunts, the fans go crazy trying to decipher the meaning of their actions. Well, there IS no meaning! All the articles and “news” stories about their relationship are nothing more than two fame-addicted people stirring the publicity pot.

Demi Lovato is the new face of the Be Vocal campaign, which encourages people to speak up about mental health. In an interview to promote the new campaign, she revealed her own bipolar diagnosis. Page Six quotes her as follows:
"Growing up, I felt very, very depressed. Even though I was playing concerts and living out my dream, I couldn’t tell you why I was upset. I remember smiling and thinking great, OK, so there’s not anything wrong with me as a person. It’s actually just a condition that I have and I can do something to fix it. I don’t have to be like this forever. It’s not something that anyone should be ashamed of. The more people talk about it, the more people can come out and get the help they need. I didn’t understand why I was going through what I was when I was dealing with all of this, and I realized I could share my story and help others. If that’s my purpose for being on Earth, then that’s what I want to do. There’s so much more to life than just singing.”

Natalie Portman Gives Graduation Speech At Harvard
Natalie Portman recently addressed the graduating class at Harvard. The Hollywood Reporter quotes her as follows:
"You are here for a reason. Sometimes, your insecurities and your inexperience may lead you to embrace other people's expectations, standards or values, but you can harness that inexperience to carve out your own path. My complete ignorance to my own limitations looked like confidence and got me into the director's chair. Once there, I had to figure it all out, and my belief that I could handle these things, contrary to all evidence of my ability to do so, was half the battle. The other half was very hard work. You can never be the best. The only thing you can be the best at is developing your own self. Make use of the fact that you don't doubt yourself too much right now. As we get older, we get more realistic, and that includes about our own abilities — or lack thereof. That realism does us no favors. What has served me is diving into my own obliviousness, being more confident than I should be."

Celebrity Real Estate - Neverland Ranch Edition
It's the real estate listing we've all been waiting for. Michael Jackson's Neverland Ranch has hit the market for a cool $100 million. Okay, so they renamed it the "Sycamore Valley Ranch," and took away the amusement park rides and exotic animals, but the floral Neverland clock is still there! The property is 40 miles outside of Santa Barbara, sits on 2,700 acres, and has 22 structures. There are no interior pictures of the property as of yet, and the seller isn't encouraging showings so there may not be any that turn up, but the Wall Street Journal has some exterior shots. So who's going to volunteer to turn Neverland into the Michael Jackson equivalent of Graceland?
Serial Podcast Returning
Exciting news for fans of the Serial podcast: The Hollywood Reporter announces that there will be not just one, but two more seasons of Serial, which will be very different from the first season. In a newsletter written by host Sarah Koenig, she states:
"We hope it means we can reduce the amount of time between the end of Season Two and the beginning of Season Three. As it stands, we intend to launch Season Two this fall and Season Three next spring. Sorry — we can’t tell you details about the new stories yet. What we can say is that they’re very different from Season One, but no less interesting to us. What’s hard to know is whether all the outside attention to even the smallest wrinkles in Adnan’s case has influenced the Court of Special Appeals to take this unusual step. I don’t presume to know the judges’ minds, or ascribe extra-judicial motives to their rulings. But clearly the appellate judges are aware the public is watching, and while I don’t imagine they’d order anything they didn’t think was just, I do think it’s possible that they’re being extra careful to make this process as transparent as they can, so that the public will fully understand their ultimate decision."

There was a string of young actresses. Then he made daily headlines last year with that messy older actress with the substance abuse problem. Now he has a “model” “girlfriend” who says that she doesn’t like to talk about what they do when they are together.
Know who DOES talk about what they do when they are with our hunk? The male models with whom he hooks up! Specifically, two guys from two different parties in Los Angeles. They each have no problem talking about the most intimate details of their time with our studly actor.

Blind Gossip Blind Item - Actor Is Getting Help
This TV actor has been engaging in some puzzling behavior lately. Some people wondered if it was drugs, alcohol, or if there was a more natural explanation for his condition.
You can probably stop worrying about him for the time being.
I’m relieved to tell you that he finally checked into [facility] to get some help for his [condition]. He knew he needed help but it took a little while to convince him that this was the right thing. We [his friends and family] are all with him on this, so he was finally okay about checking in. He is tentatively scheduled to stay for just two weeks, but we’ll see how he is feeling at the end of that two weeks.
It is not one of those super posh facilities on either coast, so that should give him a bit more privacy as he stabilizes. We wish him well in his healing.

NY Daily News Blind Item - Studio 54
It took two years of legal vetting before Mark Fleischman got the OK to start pitching “The Studio 54 Effect” to publishers. He says that finally, this month, the Chubb Group insurance business offered him a policy that protects him “up to $1 million per libel suit.”
Fleischman admits some punches had to be pulled, but he still names plenty of names and offers some intriguing blind items. For instance, he writes about one night when a coked-up “supermodel” used his office to have superfreaky sex with a funk musician who’s no longer with us.
He also writes about a wild VIP party he threw to reopen the club in 1981. But what he couldn’t include was the part about a recent Oscar winner locking himself in the bathroom with Champagne and cocaine at the after-hours bash Fleischman hosted in his apartment.

He was in a very desperate situation. And he was doing what he felt would get him out of it – going public. And it was very painful. No less painful for him. You can assure them you're there and you love them, but you cannot effect change. That's your ego, for the most part. You pray for a moment of clarity, you trust in a higher power and you never, ever give up hope. Because that is a measure of despair."

I don't want to say any anti-Paul Simon things, but it seems very perverse to not enjoy the glory and walk away from it instead. Crazy. How can you walk away from this lucky place on top of the world, Paul? What's going on with you, you idiot? How could you let that go, jerk?' "
Elsewhere in the interview, he called Simon a "jerk," "monster," and an "idiot."

Robert Redford Gives Commencement Speech
And today's celebrity commencement speech is given by actor Robert Redford. He told the graduating class of Maine's Colby College the following, as quoted by Page Six:
"You’re stepping into a world that’s, well, pretty rough. It’s pretty chaotic, pretty divisive. You’ve got climate change, you’ve got debt, you’ve got wars, you’ve got political paralysis. It’s kind of a grim story. But the story, I think, can be retold, and I really believe that you’re the ones to do it. Don’t be afraid to take a risk, don’t be afraid of failure, be bold.”

Actor Stephen Fry recently sat down for an interview with the Sydney Morning Herald, where he talked about his past cocaine use. The publication quotes him as follows:
"Sometimes the truth is annoying to people. [Cocaine] didn't seem to do me any harm. Well, it didn't do me any physical harm. It did me harm in that I could have done twice as much work. I would have got up earlier. I would have gone for walks. I would have drunk less alcohol. A large section of the Peruvian GDP went up my nose. [It was] monumentally stupid."

Blind Gossip Blind Item - The Human Push Me Pull You
Our actress has been through several husbands and boyfriends, many of them famous. However, she has a tough time letting them get on with their lives after she is done with them.
She loves to push them away and then pull them back into her circle of control. It’s a game for her.
Some have balked at it, but some have allowed her to toy with them for years after they broke up, thinking that she was serious about wanting to get back together. We know of at least one instance where her constant pushing and pulling of an ex became so confusing and distressing for him that he self-harmed. Not that it kept her from continuing the same behavior with the next one. And the next one.
She went through a break up with a celebrity last year. He moved on and is now dating someone else. As soon as she heard he was dating again, she contacted him and asked for all the details. “Who is she? Where does she come from? What does she do?”
Then: “We should get together.”
The Human Push Me Pull You is at it again.

"No, absolutely not. I'm excited by whatever it brings. I'm excited by my own evolution. I don't want to end up bittersweet. I have to evolve, I have to continue to push people's perceptions of me. As an artist I like to do that, keep people on the edge of their seats."

Robert De Niro's Graduation Speech at NYU
Robert De Niro recently gave the acceptance speech to the graduating class of NYU's Tisch School of the arts. Page Six quotes him as follows:
"You made it. And, you're fucked. You discovered a talent, developed an ambition, and recognized your passion. When you feel that you can't fight it, you just go for it. When it comes to the arts, passion should always trump common sense. Yeah you're fucked. The good news is, that's not a bad place to start. The school of medicine graduates, each will get a job. A new door is opening for you. A door to a lifetime of rejection. It's inevitable. It's what graduates call the real world...How do you cope with it? I hear that Valium and Vicodin work."
