A Surprise Personal Declaration Is Coming

May 3, 2019 Blind Gossip

[TV Line] When is a comedy special more than just a run-of-the-mill comedy special?

When the headliner of said comedy special breaks a major piece of news (in the form of a personal declaration) during said comedy special.

Yep, if the buzz circulating around Hollywood is to be believed, that’s the provocative twist at the center of a forthcoming, tightly-guarded — and potentially groundbreaking — standalone TV event starring a very notable stand-up comic/TV star.

As if that wasn’t a dramatic enough hook for a comedy offering, an insider tells me that among the folks who will be first to learn of this development are members of the entertainer’s own family (although it’s unknown if they would be present/participating in the special).

It’s also unclear if the rumored TV special is of the traditional standup variety or something more hybrid-y. But as one insider tells me, if this event comes together — and it’s looking like it will — it will have lotsa folks talking.

    This is Steve Harvey. Hes getting divorced.

    I’m going to guess TJ Miller (run-of-the-mill) who’s been a disaster lately…maybe he will announce a significant mental health diagnosis to take the heat off his behaviour?

    Okay, I’ve got this, y’all!

    Chelsea Handler is going to declare that she’s dating Donald Trump, Jr. 😱😉

    Jim Carrey. About his mental illness or his stance on vaccines, or the ex-girlfriend. Or any of the other things surrrounding him, really. He loves that hybrid documentary format, with the documentary about how he got lost in the sauce with Andy Kaufman. He’s done TV, standup, and movies (aside: why is In Living Colour the only show that doesn’t get a reboot!! bring back Jlo and the fly girls!)

    Tim Allen. Buzz, Hook and Lotsa (Lotso) are all Toy Story characters, and I think he’s the only living stand-up comedian in that franchise. Maybe he’s going to announce he’s running for office of some type.

  8. MaryQuiteContrary says

    Roseanne Barr
    Admitting she needs rehabilitation/intense mental health assistance and checks herself into rehab.

    • sfgirl42 says

      May 8, 2019 at 7:48 am

      This is a good one – something with Roseanne Barr!

  9. Pearlie says

    Johnny Galacki he and his girlfriend are expecting a baby

  10. with a twist says

    May 4, 2019 at 7:08 pm

    I’m going with Jerry Seinfeld due to the words “buzz” and “hybrid” in this blind (possibly referring to Bee Movie and Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee).

  11. Jelly Drop says

    May 4, 2019 at 4:40 pm

    I am getting a Tim Allen vibe (Buzz, Lotsa – both characters in Toy Story)

    Maybe he is pulling a Kendall and revealing he battles with adult acne. Or maybe that he has been an addict for ages. The door is really open to anything. But i am guessing not TOO scandalous considering Toy Story 4 is coming out.

  12. montebell says

    May 4, 2019 at 12:21 pm

    Hope this is not all hype and not much else, like Kendall’s big announcement that she had acne. We were baited for weeks with teasers from the mother about this huge life changing moment in Kendall’s life and all we got was a zit story. No offense to anyone with a skin condition, but most of us were poised to hear her gay proclamation. Remember Geraldo’s big buildup to opening Capone’s vault in the mid-80s? It turned out to be nothing but a dusty hole in the wall and a few cigar stubs.

    Alec Baldwin

    I have no idea what his personal declaration is: he’s leaving his wife, he’s transitioning, he’s a closet republican…?

  14. sfgirl42 says

    May 4, 2019 at 10:09 am

    This blind sounds like a woman who might be transitioning or is bi/pan-sexual, but the first would be more “newsworthy” these days. No way is it Eddie Murphy admitting anything publicly; his girlfriend is pregnant now with their second child together.

  15. parkland45 says

    May 4, 2019 at 7:56 am

    No idea who this is but the personal declaration either will be he/she is running for office, or is making a grand coming out debut.

  16. AmateurGossipHour says

    May 4, 2019 at 1:37 am

    Comedian/TV Star: Andrew Morton

    [Optional] What do the think the “personal declaration” will be? Something to do with Megan Sparkles?

    • AmateurGossipHour says

      May 4, 2019 at 2:57 pm

      Haha… That should be Trevor Engleson ( not biographer Andrew Morton)!

  17. angelbratt says

    May 3, 2019 at 7:44 pm

    Whoever it is they’re coming out of the closet

  18. Baileygirl says

    May 3, 2019 at 5:47 pm

    No idea on the comic/tv star. Sounds like they are transitioning-clue “hybrid-y.”

  19. dndsmitty says

    May 3, 2019 at 4:16 pm

    Someone’s coming out…?

  20. serendipitous_donkey says

    May 3, 2019 at 3:46 pm

    Louis CK

  21. Monysmom says

    May 3, 2019 at 3:31 pm

    I am guessing Pete Davidson will announce something?

  22. Tattletale2 says

    May 3, 2019 at 1:39 pm

    Ellen DeGeneres? Either she’s ending her talk show or she and Portia are expecting a baby.

    • Poppycorn144 says

      May 5, 2019 at 9:31 pm

      I thought she didn’t want kids.

  23. Billie says

    May 3, 2019 at 12:49 pm

    Charlie Sheen

    • luvprue1 says

      May 6, 2019 at 7:44 pm

      Wasn’t Charlie Sheen outed when it was reveal that he slept with guys.

  24. RRRRRC says

    May 3, 2019 at 11:49 am

    I don’t know, but if it’s Ellen suddenly declaring her attraction to men, I have dibs on Portia.

  25. BruisePristine says

    May 3, 2019 at 10:47 am

    OK, I’m stuck on the ‘buzz” clue. So maybe Samantha Bee or Tim Allen (Buzz Lightyear). Or even Jerry Seinfeld (Bee Movie).

    • BruisePristine says

      May 3, 2019 at 10:48 am

      Maybe Samantha Bee is running for office!

  26. VegasMike says

    May 3, 2019 at 10:45 am

    Mario Lopez finally coming out?

    He’ll publicly reveal that he’s bi…

  27. Blossom says

    May 3, 2019 at 9:35 am

    Kevin Hart

  28. WorkHardBeNice says

    May 3, 2019 at 9:24 am

    Oh wow.
    Is Tyler Perry finally coming out?

    • conspiracyc says

      May 5, 2019 at 7:46 pm

      I really want to say Tyler Perry. But the tv thing…

      So I’m going with Donald Glover, Childish Gambino- “lotsa dots”

    • Poppycorn144 says

      May 5, 2019 at 9:30 pm

      That closet is firmly locked I don’t think he could find his way out if he wanted to.

    • luvprue1 says

      May 6, 2019 at 7:42 pm

      Is Terry Perry finally coming out? Wait! When was he ever in? I didn’t know he was even in the closet.

  29. kittymyers says

    May 3, 2019 at 9:06 am

    I don’t know who, but this sounds like someone might be coming out of the closet.

    • butwhatever says

      May 7, 2019 at 6:43 pm

      Just a humorous aside–I also think it’s funny that we’re saying “oh, I don’t need to know other people’s business” in comments on a gossip website

  30. Bunniest says

    May 3, 2019 at 9:03 am

    Oh please let it be Eddie Murphy coming out the closet finally.

    • Bunniest says

      May 3, 2019 at 9:04 am

      Just kidding. Ed isn’t a TV star. Maybe Seinfeld is coming out the closet?

  31. rosebrook says

    May 3, 2019 at 9:01 am

    Dave Chappelle??? Can’t wait for his HBO special.

  32. Gerseychick says

    May 3, 2019 at 8:57 am

    Jimmy Kimmel is doing the Jefferson’s and All In the Family..He also does a lot of pranks….

  33. badgerette85 says

    May 3, 2019 at 8:37 am

    Jerry Seinfeld
    OP- ??? Running for politics like office!

    • badgerette85 says

      May 3, 2019 at 8:38 am

      Meant to say “political office”

  34. Whisper says

    May 3, 2019 at 8:29 am

    Comedian/TV Star:
    No clue

    [Optional] What do the think the “personal declaration” will be?:
    I’m guessing this person will announce they are gay/Lesbian which will surprise few as it seems to be a popular kind of declaration in Hollywood. It also wins celebrities a bump in positive coverage. Otherwise engagement or retirement?

    I hope it’s not about an illness, the sadness would make it hard to focus on the show.

    • MyCatLovesTV says

      May 7, 2019 at 9:23 am

      Maybe someone is coming out as straight. Now THAT would be a twist.
