[JanetCharlton] This celebrity split was definitely shocking, but the divorce will be smooth sailing. The reason: the husband knows a scandalous secret about his wife’s respectable family that she is desperately trying to keep it quiet. She will make sure the divorce is amicable because she would be very upset if people found out her father is not what he appears to be: he’s a deeply closeted gay and a bitter man.
Katy Perry and Russell Brand?
Yes yes yes!
That being said, am I the only one who thinks it’s awful to drag a family member’s private life into a divorce and to threaten to out someone?
Katy & Russell FTW!!!
I’m on board with this guess!
aGREE, PLUS HER DAD WANTS HER TO BE WITH TIM TEBOW.LOL
Just a wild guess.. Russell brand and Katy Perry’s dad? He’s a pastor and I can imagine that being quite the scandal. They’re the only people I could think of.
Katie Perry
Katy Perry … ftw
Katy Perry
Katy Perry’s father is gay? :O
Katy Perry’s Dad? (Although, I don’t believe that anybody was sincerely shocked by the split…)
Surprise, surprise.
The Preacher is gay. What a hypocrite.
Liking Russell more already.
Well it SOUNDS like Bruce Jenner, except for the “respectable” part. And he’s not Kim K:s real father.
lol, how does it sound like Bruce Jenner if none of the clues fit?
ummmmmmmm……….on this note, I also dont know about the “respectable” part for katys dad. I dont think its katy perrys dad. I only say thios because the blind starts out by saying that the divorce was “shocking”……..and well….that divorce wasnt shocking to any of us. we all saw it coming.
Katy’s parents are known evangelical preachers, and religious figures of any type are usually seen as respectable. As for the divorce being shocking, it wasn’t shocking for us since we read this stuff all the time but her fans, especially her young female fans, we’re probably shocked. My little cousin thought her and Brand were really going to be married forever and have those 5 babies that Katy always talked about having. Lol
lol. i guess i will have to go with this one too since there is another site from england that took this blind and gave an extra clue for it basically saying it was katy and russell.
I just saw the new issue of US Magazine. Katy and Brand were on the cover with the headline referring to Brand’s upcoming tell all book. Maybe this blind will be “solved” soon.
Maybe Katy Perry? She comes from a “respectable” religious family.
This is soooo Katy Perry.
Kermit / miss piggy ?
Hah! I can definitely see Miss Piggy having a gay dad. She’s such a drag queen.
LOL to both of you! Thanks for the laugh!
Katie and Russell?
Katy Perry and Russel Brand? Maria and Arnold?
sounds like Katy Perry, although we don’t really know much about her father
Just taking a really wild and uneducated guess, I’m thinking…
Katy Perry and Russell Brand
russell and katy????
Arnold and Maria?
Katy Perry & Russell Brand
Maria and Arnie
I like this guess. Their split was more shocking than Katy and Russell.
I like this guess better than Katy and Russell for the shocking factor, but Maria Shriver’s father is dead, which makes the wording of this not work since the father seems to be still alive.
That’s what I thought too, but googled her dead. He is dead.
Her father, Sargent Shriver, has passed away and I don’t believe he was a deeply closeted and bitter gay man. Father in the item appears to be still living.
I like that guess, and it would explain why Maria and Arnie are so quiet about everything. Besides free people know anything about Kety Perry’s father, he is not that famous…however Maria was very famous.
Katy Perry and that unwashed-looking guy. I can’t remember his name right now.
Kim k?
Imma with you. Kim doesn’t want Kris to out Bruce. I’m sure they had a huge fight over who was gonna wear the bridesmaid dress and who had to wear a tux. Just saying.
Demi/Ashton or Will/Jada or David/Courtney or ??????
I guess 2 of 3 couples splitting weren’t really shocking, but I had to throw something out there….
Russell Brand & Katy Perry….
oops too many ? the key stuck on me!
Katy Perry and Russel Brand.
Katy/Russell?
Katy Perry and Russell Brand? Not that their split is very shocking. This is my first post, but I read BG almost everyday–it’s lots of fun.
Hello Clo! Love, Ace
Katy Perry/Russell Brand; her father was seen talking to paparrazi’s and he definatley gay. Very sad that he feels he has to hide this. To live your whole life not being true to who you are is prob why he’s bitter.
Katy Perry & Russel Brand! split up but not yet divorced, I guess it’s shocking as it wasn’t a very long marriage, “respectable family” – her parents are christians…
Katy Perry and Russel Brand.
Katy Perry & Russell Brand!!
Russell Brand knows about Katy Perry’s pastor father.
Still hoping the divorce rumors are false, but Kyra and Kevin?
Perry/Brand? I got nothin…
I wouldn’t call it a shocking split, but how about Katy Perry and Russell Brand?
Katie Perry
Katy and Russell!!!
Queue the “fireworks” references NOW!
Or is that “cue”?!
yep, you are soooo right at the clue. If anyone saw Lisa Ling’s docu on “Pray the Gay Away”… then watch any interview with Katy Perry’s father…. you will see, this blind is s.o.l.v.e.d.
Katy Perry and Russell Brand
Katie & Russell. Sad
Katy Perry/Russell Brand.
I was on board with the Govenator until the last line. Sgt. Shriver died recently, so this can’t be them. Katy Perry and Russell Brand? I can certainly see this!
I didn’t know this I was thinking Maria and Arnie as well. Then this is def about Perry and her “Christian” family. But how are they thought to be so respectable when their daughter is out in skimpy clothing talking about sex/drinking etc. hmmm maybe not the Perry’s…..
Yeah but she’s always talking about how she worries about offending her parents, not that it stops her from letting it all hang out.
As far as I know, Katy Perry’s dad has never hurt anyone, so you should just leave him alone.
Perry – Brand
Katy Perry and Russell Brand
Katy Perry and Russell Brand? The only thing I know about Katy’s family is that they are devout Christians..
Not sure how “shocking” this divorce was though.
hmmmmm, Katy Perry?
Katy Perry? From Wikipedia: …raised by Christian pastor parents, Perry grew up listening to only gospel music and sang in her local church as a child. First internet single “Ur So Gay.”
Katy Perry’s daddy!!!! You gotta love hypocritical evangelists!
I’d say katy Perry, but nobody was shocked by that split, so I’ve got nothing.
Katy Perry and Russell Brand? Not a shocking split…
Arnold and Maria.
Is it bad that I want this to be Katy Perry’s family? Description fits, although not sure the split was that ‘shocking’
Katy Perry and Russell Brand
I think I’m going with Katy Perry and Russell Brand. “I think” because after reading the comments, I always change my mind.
Katie Perry
I want to say Katy and Russell especially after her fathers recent comments. It just wan’t a shocking split.
katy and russell?
Maria and Arnold
Katy and Russell? My only thought: Katy’s family is deeply religious, and it might affect their ability to evangelize around the country if people knew her dad was gay. Not sure how “shocking” the split was, though.
My inclination is to guess Maria and Arnold, but Sargent Shriver died last year and the blind refers to the father in the present tense.
Katy and Russell? Though her father is a minister, with his recent anti-semitic remarks I doubt he’s all that respectable. Still, she probably wouldn’t want it known that her father is bitter.
Katy Perry and Russell Brand?
Maria Shriver
Katy Perry & Russell Brand? Maybe Daddy is pals with Ted Haggard?
Katy Perry?
Katy Perry & Russell Brand…her dad’s some deeply religious Christian Minister.
I’m pretty sure their divorce is already finalized, but I would LOVE for this to be Asshlee Simpson and Pete Wentz. Poor poor Papa Joe
Katy Perry and Russell Brand
100% Katy Perry, who is trying to stop Russell’s new memoir.
Katy Perry and Russel Brand
jamie lee curtis and christopher guest…there were rumors that tony curtis was deeply closeted
Alas, dead and therefore not bitter, at least not anymore.
First time poster!
I’m going with Katy Perry because her father is a pastor and recently made anti-semitic remarks. Further, he dresses on the flashy side.
Hi Kay! Love, Ace
I don’t know who else it could be but Katy & Russell. The Kardashians are not respectable, but it would explain Bruce’s earrings.
Katy Perry & Russell Brand?
Katie Parry’s dad the minister.
Pink dress is a nod to her pink hair perhaps??
Katy Perry and Russell Brand?
All I can think of is Katy Perry and Russell Brand. Not sure how respectable her family is, but it would be scandalous if her dad was gay.
Katy Perry and Russell Brand!!!
Katy Perry
Katy Perry ?
Katy Perry and Russell Brand
Bitter enough to say, spout a tired ol’ stereotype about Jews and money?
Oh, Katy.
1st post!! Love ya Ace!!
Katy & Russell
Thanks, Rabbit! Love, Ace
Katy perry and Russell brand!(?)
Russel brand for the hubby and katie perrys dad for the closeted gay man??? I guess were all moderation.
Katy Perry and Russell Brand.
First time posting! Obsessed with the website!
My guess is Katy Perry and Russell Brand!
Hi Mt! Love, Ace
Katy Perry and Russell Brand
Not that I think the split was really that shocking, but Katy’s father is a Christian pastor, so that adds an edge to obviously wanting to keep his homosexuality secret.
Really don’t know who this is but a few recent celeb splits are:
Mena Suvari and Simone Sestito? Not sure it would be described as shocking but her Dad is pretty famous so…
Katy Perry and Russell Brand – again not so shocking but if her dad was closeted that would be! lol
That’s all I got…
Katy Perry & Russell Brand
My first thought was Maria Shriver and Arnold, who despite the affair seem to be friendly. Maria is from the Kennedy family and her father Sargent Shriver was a well-known politician. However, he passed away a year ago, so I’m not sure.
This blind would be pretty hilarious if it was Katy Perry and Russell Brand, but I don’t know if their split was shocking.
I’ll go with Zooey Deschanel and Ben Gibbard, seeing as Zooey’s dad is a nationally recognized cinematographer and film/television director.
How about
Katy Perry’s dad Keith Hudson!!!!
Katie Perry & Russell
Even though they are hardly “respectable”, I hope it’s the KARDASHIANS!!!
Katy Perry and Russell Brand
For a second I thought of the Kardashians with the rumor that Bruce Jenner likes to wear drag. But then I read “respectable” so they went out the window!
Btw, I am totally addicted to this site, but mostly lurk and never post!
Welcome, Wicked! Love, Ace
Russell Brand and Katy Perry and her super religious family
Katy Perry and Russell Brand, ftw!
Katy Perry
Zooey Deschanel and Ben Gibbard. Her dad’s the cinematographer of Passion of the Christ…
^ this!
I like this guess a lot. I’m sure *some* people would be shocked to know Katy Perry’s dad is gay, but wouldn’t that only concern his congregation and people who actually know him? I feel more people in the industry would be be shocked to know about Zooey’s dad. Then again, it’s Hollywood. They would probably give him a big ol’ hug and throw him a coming out party.
ashley simpson and pete wentz?
her father being the former minister is actually gay would definetly be considered a scandal….
Katy Perry and Russel Brand??
Katy Perry and Russell Brand. Katy’s father is a minister right? I know her parents are deeply religious.
Shriver and Schwarzenegger? Who else is getting divorced?
It could be Perry and Brand but I don’t really think her father being a closeted gay man is all that shocking. Old conservatives being gay isn’t really a big shocker.
Katy Perry
Johnny Depp and Vanessa Paradis?
Totally going out on a limb and guessing Arnold and Maria Shriver, her father being Sargent Shriver, a politician and founder of the Peace Corps.
Exactly who I was thinking!
Katy Perry & her Dad. Though it’s sad whoever it is because that is something that should stay private. Let’s hope Russell has more class than that.
anytime i think of “famous daddy’s girls”, i always think of the Simpsons, so my guess is Ashlee and Pete Wentz
I like this guess. I always felt that “vibe” about Joe. Like in Jessica’s earlier stages while married to Nick, Joe always made comments about his daughter’s boobs. Of course, I thought it was super creepy, but now it could just be a gay dad really thinking it’s nothing to talk about his daughter’s boobs because he has no interest in them.
Russell Brand and Katie Perry
Katy and Russell?
Katy Perry/Russell Brand
This has to be Katy and Russell! Her father is a pastor.
Mr. Hudson?
Katy Perry? Scandalous because her father is a preacher?
Katy Perry springs to mind.
uhhh, Katy Perry obviously
YES!!! My first post here and I’ve GOT this one…love you Ace!
This is definitely Katy & Russell.
Hi Gad! Love, Ace
Greetings BG and Ace:
This has got to be the Terminator and Maria. Maria’s old man never married until he was 38 after a seven year courtship, which leaves a whole lot of time to for the man to enjoy the “fruits of life” before deciding to settle down. Keep in mind, this is truly just a guess on my part.
Russel Brand with the wife being Katy Perry and her father Keith Hudson.
Katy Perry and Russell Brand !!
The reason I am going with Arnold and Maria is because they said respectable family.
Would the other families be considered respectable? I doubt. I’m going with Arnold and Maria. Wow.
Katy Perry and Russell Brand.
Can’t be Maria and Arnold, because Sarge Shriver is dead, and the father here is discussed int he present tense. Although the “smooth sailing” seems like a hint. The Kennedy caln were into sailing. But, sounds like perry-Brand, although the split isn’t shocking–and her family isn’t treally respectable.
I still think it could be Maria and Arnold. Their divorce was the most shocking considering how long they been together,and they weren’t really apart of the Hollywood scene. People still buy any book about anyone connect to the Kennedy family, so finding out that Sarge ( who a strict Catholic ) was gay would be shocking.
Just my two cents, but…Katy Perry and Russell Brand splitting up was the least shocking thing to happen in a long time, almost even less shocking that Arnold and Maria Shriver. I mean, if you were shocked by either of these splits, you weren’t paying much attention.
There are clues though, can anyone tie the clues with Katy and Russell? I mean, no one thought this break up was shocking.
definitely shocking, smooth sailing, scandalous secret, wife’s respectable family, desperately trying to keep it quiet, deeply closeted gay and a bitter man.
Katy Perry and Russell Brand divorcing was not shocking in the least. In fact, most folks are shocked it lasted as long as it did. Not them.
I do like the Arnold and Maria guess though…..
Katy Perry’s father is a REAL angry b*stard. Bigot, biased, which he’d shown himself to be last month…
From MY experience with hateful b*stards, they behave in this way to take the shine off of their OWN self-hatred, and have some of the MOST debauched lives you’ll NEVER see, living in paranoia ALL OF THE TIME at getting caught…
A very sad & contradictory existance. And you’ll NEVER get them OUT unless they’re forced to because it affects their bottom line.
Real narcissists.
I read on the Daily Mail that Katy says that Russell is writing a tell-all on their marriage…which would probaby include something like this, if you are right.
I’m not a Russell Brand fan At. All. But I think he’s more classy than writing a tell-all.
WTH are you basing this on? From what I’ve heard, her family have been very supportive of her career and not the monsters you are making them out to be.
Nothing shocking about that split (Katy and Russell). No wonder why I couldn’t think of anyone. I was suprised they lasted as long as they did.
um… people around the web are calling this Beyonce and JayZ. Just sayin what I’ve read…
ok. carry on.
Maria Shriver and Arnold. Their split was shocking and her family is very well respected.
I really can’t see how a couple of attention hogs like Katy’s parents could be considered ‘respectable’.
Zooey Deschanel
i’m wondering if i’m alone here.. i do not find the split of russel and katy shocking..
I was expecting this. No surprise here.
Heidi Klum and Seal?
Hmmm, sleepless may be onto something. Klum & Seal are a shocking split..
When I read it on TMZ this morning, I IMMEDIATELY thought of this blind!!!
I don’t think it’s them. No one knows anything about Klum’s parents, let alone enough to think of them as “respectable”. If news came out about her father being gay, I don’t think anyone would care, where as Katy’s parents are publicly known for their strong religious beliefs so to find out that her dad is gay would def be shocking.
I don’t think it’s Heidi and Seal but I can’t wait for the blind about them! Their divorce is def shocking!
Heidi and Seal
CHELSEA CLINTON & Marc Mezvinsky — not like we’ll ever find out if true, but she would qualify as a “celebrity” from a respectible family. Divorce/annulment rumors were straigt away in 2011 – shocking b/c of new marriage & they’re starting again. Plus, Janet Charlton gossips about more established people than Perry/Brand. The last sentence screams “cover up.” I voted for him & wouldn’t throw mud – it’s a huge guess based more on source than suspicion.
Isn’t Hilary rumored to be a lesbian?
But they haven’t announced a split, correct?
Why would seal care if heidis dad is gay? Heidi is so hot I wouldnt care if her father was a tranvestite serial killer
HHeidi Klum and Seall – I thought of this bllind tthe second I read the headline!!!!!
I wonder what happened…..they seemed so in love!
I thought of them too
Heidi Klum and Seal. Whenever I see Heidis dadager I think of George Michael.
The Brand/Perry split is def not shocking. Those two have always seemed an odd pairing. I’m going with Heidi and Seal here.
