[CDAN] This deception is almost movie worthy. You have a foreign born B list actress and singer who is barely known here in the US but is A list back home and has had some very interesting boyfriends in the past. Their previous choices makes you wonder how she ended up with them. Anyway, her part of the deception was simple. She found a former A list tweener and convinced him she was in like with him. He even got to fool around with her once or twice.
On the other side of the equation is a former almost A list singer. Now you feel like the singer is not far from playing casinos and state fairs. Anyway, our singer is married to a reality star and has been for quite some time. There are kids involved. So, we have the foreign born star and the singer and they have been together for about six months. The thing is they can never go anywhere when she is in LA and have to really sneak around and use her friend’s apartments even with her pretending to be the girlfriend of the former A list tweener. Now though they will have several weeks together alone while they film a new show out of the country. They are going to use this time to decide if the final cut should be made and the singer can move on with the foreign born star.

Former A List Singer:
Reality Star: Nicole Richie
Whoops forgot to add in Joel Madden as the Singer
Do Joel and Nicole qualify as being married a long time?
excellent guess. They’re all really trashy IMO. No one to feel sorry for here except the kids. And even then, they may be better off because I hear the Richie-Madden union is incredibly dysfunctional and Richie yells a lot
This was going to be my guess. Good call! I never thought Delta was as goody two shoes as she has been made out to be.
i see delta is back to her family homewrecking ways….she did this to kerry katona when she stole brian mcfadden …turned kerrys life upside down with no thought to their kids either.. DELTRA GOODREM IS A SERIAL HUSBAND STEALER
Because if it wasn’t for Delta, Kerry Katona (that well-adjusted wife and mother) would have a great life with her loyal and faithful husband, is that right?
And if it wasn’t for Delta, Nicole Richie (the paragon of healthy living & humility) would have a wonderful life with her adoring husband who couldn’t wait to marry her even without Nicole becoming oops! pregnant, right?
Yep, it’s all Delta’s fault, ruining these PERFECTLY GOOD MARRIAGES & RELATIONSHIPS. What a powerful woman Delta is.
Just to clarify, I’m not defending Delta or anything, but I have never understood how a grown man can be “stolen” from someone. It’s children or helpless pets who are “stolen”, i.e. kidnapped or dognapped (petnapped?)
But a grown man? He goes willingly. VERY willingly.
how sad….I like nicole
i meant
I’d like to add a man might go very willingly, but please don’t imply that it is the wife’s/significant other’s fault. Sometimes when people get married and have kids, they find that they can’t handle being responsible or being a parent, or being faithful. It also doesn’t help when everything in society spews the message that women are playthings and men can take their pick like they’re at a candy store. The sad thing is when people betray/wound each other in this way, they are unwittingly contributing to the blanket of cynicism and hatred in the world. Why? Because no one can feel they can trust each other and no one can believe they can count on anything. The world just gets filled up with angry people.
Oh and as far as Richie yelling a lot, or any woman in general… I really don’t know how people still expect women today to be some kind of delicate flower when the world shows them that they have to stand up and fight for themselves… especially when being dicked over, taken advantage of, etc because it’s perfectly acceptable for everyone to do whatever they want. Why would a woman want to be treated that way. Why would a man? Magnify this idea a bunch of times and no wonder this world is out of control. No one cares enough about anything except trying to yell louder to be ‘heard’ and get the last strike in. It’s so ridiculous. I feel sorry for the kids today who are taught that this is the way to relate to one another.
Jane, I never implied it was solely the wife’s/SO’s fault.
I was being incredibly sarcastic in my post referring to the Kerry’s husband as being “loyal & faithful” (when he NEVER was) and to Nicole’s husband as “adoring and itching to marry Nicole” (when he NEVER was). That is most definitely the fault of the HUSBAND.
I was similarly being incredibly sarcastic referring to Kerry as “the well-adjusted wife and mother” (she most certainly is NOT) and Nicole as “the paragon of healthy living and humility” (again, NOT). That is most definitely the wife’s SO fault.
In conclusion, I was blaming the DYSFUNCTIONAL COUPLE as a unit. I don’t know where you got the idea I was only blaming women.
And Nicole Richie *does* yell a lot. And there is no excuse for that. There is no excuse for verbal abuse just like there is no excuse for physical abuse. A woman living in North America of sufficient means doesn’t like being treated as a plaything/used for sex/cheated on? She can leave. Does she think yelling will change her man’s behavior? Does she think yelling will change anyone’s behavior?
Why doesn’t she just leave? Oh, she’s afraid of being alone? Yeah, that’s her own fault and I don’t feel sorry for her.
Anyone who cries “oh woe is me please help me I am a victim” and *yells* to try to change this behavior when she has more than sufficient means to leave and is perfectly capable of leaving? Please. I feel sorry for the kids today who are taught that *this* is the way to relate to one another.
Once again: was this written by a non-native English speaking person? Or one who is dys-syntactic?
Exactly!
Yeah, I need this one spelled out for me. At first, I thought the two paragraphs were unrelated.
I still wanna know how whomever wrote this bit got that job. Obviously, they need about 3-5 years of basic English grammar.
Right? It’s kind of sad when a blog post needs subtitles.
I feel like I am being Punk’d with every single CDAN item. It should not be so difficult to read a blind item!
CDAN has zero competence in storytelling.
And everyone complains about Ted! The key to understanding Ted’s writing is to read the blind out loud–he writes as he talks. But this is the worst item Enty’s ever written, and that’s saying something b/c he is a HORRIBLE writer.
Foreign born actress/singer: Delta Goodrem, Tweener: that Jonas dude. Don’t know WHO the singer and his wife are.
Delta Goodrem, a Jonas, Joel Madden and Nicole Richie. Too easy!
Delta Goodrem and the married-to-Nicole-Richie Good Charlotte twin.
She isn’t really A list here, btw. Maybe she was when she was actually releasing music, but not for a long time now.
I find this kind of sad.
If Delta Goodrem is or ever was A list, I’m the Queen of Sheba. Cate Blanchet is A list. Delta was perhaps A list to a very specific group of people (7 – 15 year old females who were really into Neighbours), and for a very short amount of time, but I think she was more C list on the grand scheme of things. I mean, anyone can win a ARIA. Look at Altiyan Childs, he’s got one.

I;m feeling Delta Goodrem for the Foreign Born Actress and Nick Jonas for the tweener, but I’m clueless as to the other two.
Foreign-born B lister – Delta Goodrem
A-List Tweener – Nick Jonas
Former A-List Singer – Joel Madden
Reality Star Wife – Nicole Ritchie
Show – The Voice Australia
I think this is:
Foreign Born Singer: Delta Goodrem
Tweener: Nick Jonas
Former A list singer: Joel Madden
Reality Star: Nicole Richie
I question Maddens A list status myself but Good Charlotte was big for awhile and Goodrem and Madden are doing The Voice Australia together.

OMG – could it be…
Foreign Born Actress Singer: Delta Goodrem
Tweener: Joe Jonas
Former A list Singer: Joel Madden married to Nicole Ritchie
In Australia shooting the Aussie version of “The Voice”
The foreigner born singer allying with a former A list tweener sounds like Delta Goodrem and Nick Jonas. As to the other couple, could it be Seal and Heidi Klum? Delta is scheduled to start filming the Australian version of The Voice and Seal is one of the judges or something.
delta goodrem & nick jonas for the first two.
idk the former a list singer & reality star though.
This should be easy but brain is fried.
Right – what about Delta Goodrem for the B-list actress. She has A-;ist status as a singer actress in Aus and is pretty well know UK.
So, Joe Jonas as the former A-list Tweener.
With Joel Madden as the singer (I’ll ignore the almost A-list).
And Nicole Richie as the wife/mother of the kids. She’s a reality star.

Oh by the way first time poster just registered!! Have been loving reading all the gossip!!!
I can’t wait to read everyone’s guesses, cause I’ve got nothing!! But my fellow guessers are GOOOOOD and someone will plot it out and it will suddenly be so OBVIOUS!!!
Delta Goodrem, Nick Jonas, Joel Madden & Nicole Ritchie.
I am so confused. I thought there were only 3 people in this blind. But then there are 4 listed. Where does the reality fit in?
Foreign Born Actress and Singer: Delta Goodrem
Tweener: Nick Jonas
Former A List Singer: Benji Madden
Reality Star: Nicole Richie
Goodrem & Madden are in Aus filming The Voice.
And by Benji I mean Joel.
Former A list singer: Seal
Reality star: Heidi Klum
Derp … can’t guess the rest.
Long time lurker, first time poster! I’m going with:
Delta Goodrem
Nick Jonas
Seal
Heidi Klum
Poor Heidi! You’re the bomb Ace!
Whoopsie, change…. maybe Joel Madden for the singer and Nicole Richie for the Reality Star?
Oh Delta, Delta, Delta….
hmmm gives a new meaning to the phrase “Tri-Delta”
-Tweener is Joe Jonas who is way younger and a shock based on previous choices
-Foreign born actress is Australian Delta Goodrem
-Singer is Joel Madden
-Reality star with kids is Nicole Ritchie
-Show being filmed is the voice , Aussie verrsion
Foreign Born Actress: Delta Goodrem
Tweener: Joe Jonas
Former A List Singer: Joel Madden

Joel and Delta are judges on The Voice in Australia. She landed yesterday … no word, according to Herald Sun Newspaper if Nicole is joining them.
Foreign Born Actress and Singer: Delta Goodrem
Tweener: Nick Jonas
Former A List Singer: Joel Madden
Reality Star: Nicole Richie
Whoa! What?!?!? CDAN really outdid himself in writing THIS one. I’ll go back for an eighth read and see if I have a guess…
OH how I laughed at that! I thought I was the only one having problems deciphering!
This blind is really confusing. For some reason I thought of Enrique Iglesias when I read “and singer who is barely known here in the US but is A list back home”…but I’m probably wrong. LOL
Foreign Born Actress and Singer: Delta Goodrem
Tweener: Nick Jonas
Former A List Singer: Joel Madden
Reality Star: Nicole Richie
My only problem with this is that I wouldn’t consider being married for a year and two months “quite some time” (Nicole and Joel married in Dec. 2010). And I wouldn’t call him an A List singer, but part of a former A List band. But I’m probably being too picky about the description!
I re-read Ace’s post that’s possibly about the same blind and I agree it’s definitely Delta/Nick/Joel/Nicole… I just don’t agree with how CDAN worded some clues!
I just don’t see how this situation could be “good” for everyone involved, as that other blind implies. How is this good for Nicole Richie if her husband is cheating on her?

Seal
Heidi Klum
Delta has been in LA recently and has just returned to Australia to start filming the Voice with Seal and Joel Madden. (He would also fit – married to reality star, got kids, but Heidi & Seal have been married longer and it would explain their unexpected split?)
Her interesting ex would be Brian McFadden from Westlife.
I’m going with this guess too. I was always suspicious over Heidi and Seal’s split.
The foreign actor/singer is Delta Goodrem
The tweener is Nick Jonas
The former A list singer is Joel Madden
The reality star is Nicole Richie
Both Goodrem & Madden will be on the Aussie version of The Voice
along with Seal & Kieth Urban which IMO is a pretty good lineup!
(Minus Delta of course)
Delta Goodrem
Nick Jonas
Joel Madden
Nicole Richie
Delta has dated Mark Philippousis and Brian McFadden
Delta and Joel are both involved with The Voice in Australia.
Foreign born star: Delta Goodrem
Former tweener: Nick Jonas

Reality star wife: Nicole Ritchie
Foreign Born Actress and Singer: Delta Goodrem
Tweener: that Jonas brother – Nick maybe? I get them mixed up
Former A List Singer: Joel Madden
Reality Star: Nicole Richie
Delta is a huge star here in Oz and her previous boyfriend was Brian McFadden from Westlife. Both Delta and Joel have just arrived for the filming of The Voice Australia.
The only thing not sure about is Joel Madden’s status. Was he A list? Is he really just a step away from Casinos and State Fairs now? I haven’t heard much about him lately.
Delta Goodrem
Nick Jonas
Joel Madden
Nicole Richie.
Delta is pretty big over here in Aus (unfortunately) and is about to be a judge on The Voice with Joel. She also has a “butter wouldn’t melt in my mouth” public persona which is almost always a sure sign that she would probably run over her own grandmother to get what she wants. She was also “the other woman” before, with her previous relationship with Brian McFadden.
Can someone simplify this blind? I’m confused…
me too
What happened in this blind and why is it bad?
I’m with you, MissFaye.
I hope this one is revealed, because it is too confusing to spend time figuring it out!
Agreed about Delta and the Jonas boy, but this is definitely about Heidi and Seal. The clue is “the final cut”. Heidi and Seal are separated, but neither has made the final decision to go forward with the divorce. They keep saying things like “We’ll have to see how we really feel” and such. Seal even went so far as to say he wasn’t sure he wanted to stay married to this “amazing woman”. At least Heidi can move back into the house now that he is out of country.
I still think it’s Seal and Heidi – she did the Runway Model competition show – and Seal just took off his ring in Australia…
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/02/16/seal-removes-wedding-ring_n_1281457.html?ref=celebrity&ir=Celebrity&icid=maing-grid7%7Cmain5%7Cdl7%7Csec3_lnk1%26pLid%3D136218
Heidi is the host of Project Runway, so it would still not make her a reality STAR but rather a reality show HOST.
And I saw the articles about Seal arriving in Australia without his wedding ring. I think this is more, because, Heidi made it clear that she is going forward with the divorce. And she wasn’t too happy about him making the rounds and talking about the split at all talk shows.
If you go back to the blind from BG (linked right below the new blind text) it talks about 3 famous showbiz families being affected: family of her fake boyfriend, family of her real boyfriend, and family of the cheated on wife/mother/significant other.
Seal does not have a famous showbiz family, neither his biological nor his adoptive family is famous or in show business.
Heidi also isn’t from a famous show business family. Yes her father is involved in her business side, but that came through her success.
And the clues in the BG text “its good for the girl, good for the guy” was taken as a clue for Good Charlotte. Because, how is otherwise a father and husband cheating on his wife and the mother of his children a good thing. And in the case of Seal and Heidi with regard to the “its good for the guy”, can’t really find a way to make that fit for Seal, and for Seal to go from Heidi to Delta Goodrem…. can’t see the good in that at all, especially with the cute kids involved.
The foreign actor/singer is Delta Goodrem
The tweener is Nick Jonas
The former A list singer is Joel Madden
The reality star is Nicole Richie
The reference article “Bad Behavior Is Good For Three Families” mentions “Good” multiple times.
Joel is from Good Charlotte.
Since Joel is in Aus, the band is scheduled to perform at a “Supercar Champtionship”, so it does kinda sound like they would play the lower end venues now.
The image for the BG reference article has a comely couple that bears a resemblance to Delta and Nick.
The fake relationship clearly seems to be the Jonas and that Goodrem character, who was a popular guess for this despicable blind: http://blindgossip.com/?p=15640 – the comment thread begun by ‘sara’ is the most d-mning.
Though the Joel and Nicole guess is popular for this blind, I really think Seal and Heidi fit far better (unfortunately, as I’ve heretofore liked them both). Joel Madden is not a former A-list singer and has not been married to Nicole for what anyone would term ‘quite some time’. However, Seal has been putting out hit singles since I was a wee baby (“Crazy”, anyone?) and has been married to Heidi almost seven years.
Frankly, I don’t buy their insistence that cheating wasn’t the cause of their sudden split (I mean, these are two people who remarry and have a child almost every year). I think sure, Seal has a bad temper but Heidi always dealt with it – but when she discovered he was ALSO cheating, that had to have been it for her. And I think the timing of the trial period between Seal and Delta would give Heidi enough of a ‘cushion’ to deny that Delta had been involved in the demise of her marriage. As a businessperson with a career, I doubt Heidi would want Seal’s cheating to become a talking point and make her more of a tabloid regular than a cover girl. And Seal probably figures he owes it to her to save her that embarrassment (Left for a younger woman! All her friends were right; Heidi was slumming it with Seal!); she’s the mother of his children, after all. Poor Heidi
that was confusing..
Foreign Born Actress and Singer: Delta Goodrem
Tweener: Nick Jonas
Former A List Singer: Joel Madden (or is it benji she married?)
Reality Star: Nicole Richie
oh delta, the stories we could all tell about you
Girl having fake relationship and secret affair: Delta Goodrem
Tween from first family: Nick Jonas
Guy having the affair and co-parenting: Seal. He is a has-been A-list singer who adopted Heidi Klum’s daughter.
Third Family: Heidi Klum – the reality star. She and Seal have been married for ‘quite a long time’.
The Project the girl and guy are working on- Both are judges on The Voice in Australia.
I would favour Joel Madden over Seal, who is also a possibility, except for the fact that I don’t think he and Nicole could be considered to have been married for a long time – Seal and Heidi on the other hand…until very recently..! Coinkidink???
first time poster, long time reader.. you know the drill.
that is one confusing item but i am confident to declare this one as solved as Gooodrem/Jonas/Madden. I had my thoughts for them anyway with the previous blind on the same topic and absolutely every clue fits. Especially about Delta’s previous questionable boyfriends… seriously, she has some warped taste in men.
Delta actually is probably A-List here in Aus on name recognition alone, she was top of her game for sure and will probably be A-List for life in Australia.
Shame she will keep generating a home wrecker image though…
Solved blind, Ace.. at least half of it anyway

Could this couple be getting ready to be together? Delta’s just broken up with Nick, so there’s one half out of the way.
http://news.ninemsn.com.au/entertainment/8423107/delta-goodrem-nick-jonas-split
News broke that Delta and Nick have split:http://www.people.com/people/article/0,,20572136,00.html
This is totally Delta and Seal. He arrives in Australia with his wedding ring removed. Heidi removes her ring in LA a few days later. And a few days after that, Delta and Nick split up.
Argh! You buttholes beat me to it! Lol!
