BlindGossip -
Dear Mr. RollUp,
We are in receipt of the delightful Cease and Desist order sent to us by your attorney. What a thoughtful gesture it was for you to notify us of your burgeoning importance and fame!
We’re genuinely sorry that we did not even know who you were before receipt of your lovely letter. It simply defies logic! We’ve now looked you up and know who you are. We can’t believe that there exists an actor in the universe who possesses such enormous talent – along with such a staggering ego and massive paranoia- as to think that we might defame them. Truth is, we’ve never written a blind gossip item about you before… but we will now!
Let’s start with this one: Which handsome actor from a summer television series with dismal ratings should roll up his copy of the C&D and thrust it up his posterior? Actually, from what we’ve heard about his extra-curricular activities, there’s probably enough space up there to accommodate several C&Ds.
Love, BG
Bahaha!! Funniest. Letter. Ever! Off to think about a guess…
Thanks, Bun. Put on your thinking cap! Love, BG
I LOVE YOU GUYS BG!!!!
Thanks, Penny! Love, BG
lol
Someone from that Gossip Girl reality show?
Hey Lily – Not a reality show. Love, BG
Love this BG, but LOVE YOU even more! If only I could work out who it is. Any more hints?!?!
Hi hmmm. All the clues to identify the show are there. Love, BG
That PC guy from NYC prep?
Oh my God it totally has to be that d*.
I’m going with PC as well. The abbreviations in place of Cease and Desist might be a clue.
Oh let’s have some fun you should publish the C&D, since you have not defamed the individual prior to receiving the nasty little letter..should make for fabulous speculation to which blind they are referring to..
If BG didn’t know who this self important fool was before looking him up, I’m afraid this will be the hardest one to solve. You do know who Tom Cruise is, don’t you BG? LOL! He comes to mind as being the arrogant type to pull this stunt but I do realize its not him.
Meow!
Nicely done, BG, nicely done.
Thanks, Minerva! Love, BG
This is the funniest BI I’ve ever read. God, I love you, BG. God, I really missed you. Been months since I’ve posted.
Lilia – We’ve missed you too! We’re glad you’re back. Love, BG
OMG lol. Whoever the hell it is needs to stop being so paranoid. He just thrust himself under the bus.
I think you should win the ice cream BG!
Blah blah blah….anyone have an actual guess?
I ask this because I SUCK at guessing, but I love to read all the theories ya’ll come up with.
Muahhahahahahahahahahahahahahahhahaha. Ahem. Um…. Teddy Sears from Raising the Bar. Because… um…bwahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha. This website warms my black, black heart.
That was hilarious BG but we need more hints.
Anon – There are many hints in the item. Love, BG
Which blind does he think was about him? That would be fun to know too!
‘burgeoning’ ‘enormous’ and ‘massive’ make it sound like he is a zero… in personality AND in shape
Rubia – You’re smart for picking out words in the item. They’re the wrong words, but at least you’re thinking. Love, BG
Hope its not Thomas Jane from HUNG
Okay, my guess is David Charvet. He was on that awful NBC series “The Superstars.” He was on Bay Watch for a period of time (kind of acting)and I hear that when he was a Chippendale’s dancer he had the BIGGEST ego on earth. (Granted he’s with Brooke Burke, but that’s neither here nor there.)
…uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!! BG!!!!
ROF, didn’t know you had it in ya. Took those crinolines off, huh? So much more playin’ nicely!!!
Soooooooo LOL
…sorry, I meant, “so much for playin’ nicely”…
bg i’ve taken the rest of the afternoon off to sit on the couch, read your 12345′s and watch americas next top model reruns…but i agree, more hints!!!
Man, can I join you? That sounds like the perfect day!
Hi dc – A wise use of time, except we hope it’s not the cycle with Jade. Love, BG
The cycle with Jade is the best, though!
BG that site maintanence work did you all justice. You come to the ring swinging and ready to knock down all of the haters–keep the punches coming BG! By the way, I have no clue as to who this is but I love the boldness from you.
What post was he moaning about?

REVEAL!

NYC Prep is a new summer show getting dismal ratings.
Sebastian is clearly a tool.
http://perezhilton.com/2009-08-13-playboy-sebastian-from-nyc-prep-is-bored-offensive
I vote Sebastian. He’s certainly enough of a jerk.
ok ok.. i have a guess… what about Mark Feuerstein from that new show Royal Pains?
Nnnnnooooooooooo…it’s been my favorite show all this dull summer. Plus, he’s hot! No. No. No. I won’t stand for it. Mark!! Please write in and say it ain’t so (sniff, sniff, wahhhhh)
Yan – Royal Pains had excellent ratings this summer. Wrong show and wrong guy. Love, BG
…huhhh (sniff, sniff) BeeeeeeGeeeeeeee…me-woves-u!!

BG already said it wasn’t from a reality show.
this is the BEST BI ever!
I love you BG<3
Thanks, Nat! Love, BG
ooh i have a new one… took them off some site.. read especially how they describe the show and then read BG’s post… could be connected no?
The show: ‘Hung’ on HBO The Actor: Thomas Jane
Premise: A well-endowed, but down-and-out high school coach (Jane) apty discovers how to use his best, um, assets. We’re not exactly sure what that means. But it appears HBO may have found its next big hit.
I was thinking Thomas Jane as well, but I think BG would probably know who he is.
GG – We know him. Love, BG
Oh thank God! The only clues I could see were pointing to “Hung” but there’s no WAY BG didn’t know who Thomas Jane was!!!
Dayum!! BG u ARE awesome!!
Thanks, Hope! Love, BG
what about chris egan from kings? hmmmm…that’s the only summer show i can think of that had reallllly bad ratings.
Me – Almost all the new shows introduced this summer had bad ratings. Love, BG
…except for the adorably hot, Mark Feuerstein’s show, Royal Pains. Yayyy! I just knew Mark was the kind to have a real life and too much intelligence to have pulled a dumb stunt like this. The person responsible for this C&D doesn’t have a life outside of himself and is a sad, sad, wee, little man…and probably very close buddies with T. Cruise-r.
I don’t remember any of these names from some of the guesses to the blind items. Wouldn’t it be somebody whose name kept popping up in the comments section?
BG, I love you. Thank you for making my day even sunnier!
You’re welcome, Brunette! Love, BG
I seriously love BG.
Thanks, Gaas. Seriously. Love, BG
Wasn’t there a bi that had Paris’s brother in it with possibly a guy from NYC prep?
YES
BG, you are a treasure.
Thanks, Shamon. Love, BG
When I first started reading, honestly, I thought of Tom Cruise. The website Gawker.com has so many Cease and Desists orders against it from Tom Cruise and Church of Scientology. Very litigious.
LOL Lynne, thats why I jokingly asked if BG knew who Tom Cruise is. When I hear “cease and desist” I immediately think of no one but him.
Yeah, BG you’re my new hero! What sort of bonehead would try to push a C&D order onto a BI site?? A legend in his own mind, I guess
Mouse – A really boneheaded bonehead. Love, BG
Dear BG,
I love you for this blind however, I must request you cease and desist with any further attention to this man-ho. Clearly that is all they are in this business for and I for one wish the attention to not be on them. Anyone with an ego that big as to assume all blinds are about them is paranoid and should be dealt with by ignoring.
Thank you for your time,
Kiki
Kiki – Oh no! Not another C&D! Love, BG
OMG, this is too funny! Sounds like whoever wrote the letter is trying to drum up some publicity and knows where to go to get it, LOL! But yes, I’ll agree it’s probably from one of those tools from NYC Prep.
Kel – Can anything really be too funny? We think not. Love, BG
HAHAHAHA omg this is actually amazing. PLEASE PLEASE reveal this! We deserve to know who this major douchebag is. I agree with the NYC prep thing but don’t think it is PC because i’m pretty sure there was a blind posted about him (and the hotel heir.) So…is it Sebastian? Please tell us!!! I’m begging you!
Danielle – No need to beg. Not a reality show. Love, BG
BG, you are badass and I love you more than ever.
As for a guess, I can only say it wouldn’t be anyone from NYC Prep because they said it’s an actor.
Maaaaay – Thanks! Love, BG
I vote for Thomas Jane.
lol.. LOVE the letter
GO BG!!
Thanks, luv. We’re going. Love, BG
Everything is always said with class when you say it..
love the nice nasty!
Hey Tease – We try. We like the expression “nice nasty”. Love, BG
Ohhh no you di’nnnnn, BG!! This is too funny. Thank you for making my month.
P.S. – Please, oh please reveal this li’l snot.
You’re welcome, Ibi. Love, BG
No clue, but I love you BG!
Big hug to you too, Jane. Love, BG
is it that guy from burn notice?
I was thinking that it could be the guy who plays Vince on Entourage.
Pretty sure BG knows who Adrian Grenier is, though.
BG is it a network or cable show? That piece of info might help narrow down the answer–more cable summer shows on USA, TNT and A&E. The Philantropist is the only network show I can think of with low ratings.
I say it’s someone from the “Defying Gravity” cast. Ron Livingston I presume. LOL
Com’on BG am I close?
Okay – not sure which one – but one of the guys from Defying Gravity?
It’s a space show.. Defying Gravity?
That guy from Office Space and Defying Gravity — Ron Livingston.
Show could be Defying Gravity – couldn’t even watch a full episode of that one! But who’s the ego…
Ron Livingston….
i figured out the show: “defying gravity.” the lines “it simply DEFIES logic” “..there exists an actor in the UNIVERSE..” point to that show which is about astronauts living on the space station. i dont know the actor though! can’t believe i think i got a blind item partially right!
What about William Vaughn – he was on Battlestar Gallactica – “actor in the universe”?
Not Ron – he has been heard of before this show – though maybe not so much after.
i think that “universe” “defies logic” “space” and “thrust” are the clues. ron livingston is some dude on some show called defying gravity which is about people on a 6 year space mission. sounds awesome. anyway, the show’s description says that the character is “thrust” into a romantic love triangle while in “space”.
I notice how BG hasn’t rebutted your clues…think you’re on to something here!
Since MaggieMay got a shout out from BG (congrats), the show sounds right. 2 missing clues may be handsome and extra curricular (but they seem obvious). I’ll say Malik Yoba or Eyal Podell. Had to look up both their names.
Chris Vance from Mental (logic, ego and massive paranoia) or Eddie McClintock from Warehouse 13 (universe)?
According to IMDB, Eddie McClintock is married. But, of course, we know THAT doesn’t mean anything…. I like these guesses.
My Vote goes to Tinky Winky the Teletubby because he has always given me that vibe!
Ok, i’m from the UK so probably dont watch what you guys are talking about. What about 90210?? I’d love to know, I cant stand people like this, DONT give this d*** the attention he obviously craves BG!!!!
Now, if I could only find who it is… never heard of before… kinda hard, what with all the bad tv shows this summer…
“There are lots of new TV shows on this summer, but make no mistake about it: Most of them suck.” source: http://www.salon.com/ent/tv/iltw/2009/07/19/dark_blue/
Tough one! thanks & Lots Of Love BG!
Blind Gossip is the best!
Nice one, BG! This definitely makes up for the upgrade downtime! I’m going with AK’s guess, Chris Vance from Mental. Anyway, it can’t be PC from NYC Prep,as others have said. He is kind of a jerk though, completely adorable (I’d like to pinch those cheeks), but still a jerk. I have to say BG, the little devil horns are out today and it’s verrry becoming!
i love that the thought of even being defamed in a BLIND GOSSIP blog is that terrifying to someone…lol. something to hide yeah? I love it BG. Defame away
Must be a big ole closeted gay actor with so much room in his posterior!
BG…I have to say, I remain thoroughly tickled by this item. Therefore, I’ve done a little digging, and it seems that Mr. Thomas Jane portrayed a version of himself, as a famous star, on an episode of Arrested Development. His plotline according to Wiki went something like this:
…the show’s characters have not heard of him, and do not recognize him as the star actor that he is…
Hmmm, seems they weren’t the only ones. LOL I have yet to see a single episode of Arrested Development, but the whole “don’t know you” scenario has a ring of familiarity.
Add that to a crop of metaphors for being Hung, and by george, I think we’ve bagged ourselves a plucked peacock!
I’m gonna say it’s the guy from the Philanthropist, James Purefoy. I seem to remember that this show s*.
If we’re going to assume the show is Defying Gravity then my guess is Andrew Airlie. He is listed first on the cast list on IMDB and seems to have a pretty big resume but not only do I not recognixe his name or face, he also seems to be in quite a lot of random extra type characters or in TV shows I’ve never heard of.
Also, you’re blind seems to ellude to the fact that the man might be gay. I can’t find anything suggesting that he might be, but he has appeared in films as a gay man before according to my google search.
Ooooh snap, BG! Nice work
How about that lead guy from Harper’s Island? His name is Christopher Gorham which I had to look up even though I was probably the only person who watched that show.
BI, I think you’re talking about me again. I know I’ve never been on film, or on TV, or in a play, or had a record, or anything else… and I’m not from a famous family… but I am sure that almost every blind item is about me! Except the crack heads. And the gay ones. And the ones about the people who AREN’T well endowed. And the ones with celebrity friends. And the ones about film stars, TV stars, theater stars, music stars, and so on. But CEASE and DECIST anyway! Leave me alone!
OK. So this is always the site I save for the weekend, (if I can) so that I can take my time to enjoy it. I’m thinking the stinky * wanna be, PC, from NYC Premadonna. He is the star of the world in his head and probably has more dirt under his nails than Britney does scratching out her tracks!
Has anyone guessed Nicholas Gonzalez from “Mental”? The clue words seem to point to something to do with psychology…”logic”, “ego”, “paranoia”…but how does that jibe with the words BG said Maggie picked out, “space”, “universe” and “thrust”? Oh, BOTHER!
I’m guessing Daniel Chilson (D&C or C&D) from Defying Gravity (logic, space, dismal ratings)
Popularity up 166%, maybe this C&D was NOT the dumbest thing DC has done. Has us looking at a show of which we’ve never heard. We all know the girls follow the gays and the public at large follows the girls. A couple more blinds and a beard are good for a career no?
shoot my guess was from an older version. Got distracted by plot. Gay relationships.
the 2009 show pop. is up nearly 2000% so… my point still stand
nyc prep for sure, there was a story about him and, of all people, paris and nicky hiltons little bro
I feel like this is Zachary Quinto for some reason.
Dylan McDermot from “Dark Blue” or Peter Facinelli from “Nurse Jackie”
Please let it be Jonny Lee Miller from Eli Stone, the plot summary from boston.com provides “The “quasi-religious dramedy” about a lawyer (Jonny Lee Miller) who receives prophetic messages through singing, dancing hallucinations.”
Roll up could be a reference to the dr*gs
Peter Krause from Dirty Sexy Money?
The bus…could that refer to a school bus? I like the guess about the guy from NY Prep.
I’m with you! All the clues point to Defying Gravity. Ron Livingston and the rest of the actors on the show are not “young”. Not only is Eyal still young but he was totally on Y&R.
I’m hoping it’s him because I’m hoping it’s NOT Ron… I’ve always like him.
I love it, BG!! My favorite thing to do is to let Merriam Webster inform someone they’ve been blessed out. Love it that you took the high road, but it’s why I’m a fan. Betcha Mr. Droopy Drawers wishes he had now, too. It’s open season on his raggedy behind now (oops, high road). Let’s hope he’s not using you, BG, in order to make himself relevant.
