BLIND GOSSIP

The #1 Blind Item Site in the World!

At The Range

woman-range[Blind Gossip] Although she has played some passionate women on-screen, this film actress is rather quiet and low-key off-screen. She just lives her life without a lot of fanfare or drama.

Is there something going on in her private life we don’t know about? Possibly. She recently visited a shooting range to take a series of lessons on firearms safety and handling.

She said that she needed to learn to shoot for a role she was going to do, but usually movies will hire a weapons expert to train the actor so they don’t have to go learn it themselves. Besides that, she was asking about purchasing a handgun and what kind of paperwork would be required and whether the information would be public. It was obvious that she was lying about the movie role, but I didn’t want to make her uncomfortable, so I just played along. I don’t know why she would lie. These days at the range, we have more women than men taking lessons!

We checked out the projects she has in production and development, but there are none that would seem to require firearms training.

    Actress: Jodie Foster

    Reason: John Hinckley Jr. was released last August. Maybe he’s violating one of the conditions of his release, which is that he not contact her.

    I have no idea how the “similar” item ties into this guess, though.

  5. MikeInSanJose says

    The term “Fanfare” made me think of the Tributes Procession from Hunger Games.

    Jennifer Lawrence?

  8. IntolerantOldBat says

    Everyone should know how to handle a firearm. Not everyone should go around bragging about it, though, so I would be really upset if someone spilled the beans about me. Concealed carry levels the playing field, and I am in FULL SUPPORT of it, but I also think it’s important to keep quiet about it and leave the criminals guessing as to who is packing and who isn’t. It seems safer that way.

  9. NoseyNana2008 says

    Wouldn’t she already have some gun training from films she’s already done? “Miss Congeniality” comes to mind. But the picture looks like her.

  12. westcoastlove says

    I immediately thought of Sandy because the pic looks like her a bit, and she is pretty low key and drama free (with the exception of Jesse James)
    I think she had a stalker a while back, yes?
    Good for her — its a crazy world.

  13. ProfessorJay says

    I’m going out on a limb and guessing Michelle Williams. Probably the threat of a stalker would push her to do something like this.

    She’s been in what I would consider very demanding dramatic roles (not necessarily passionate) but she is very low key which made her come to mind.

    Coming Civil Conflict. Hollyweird has lived a sheltered life so long and now they are targets. The Casting Couch Gay Celebs are especially concerned now——- especially those pedophile rings, I am a Bernie guy who didn’t like Hillary and the Dems decided to shut him down. Funny how all these people who are anti 2nd Amendment are now arming themselves too the teeth because the Donald is not going to change his personality. Hillary just lost her immunity ticket. PIC looks like Sandra

  16. Gemzan says

    Whomever it is, I hope they will never have to defend themselves or their family, but it is very reassuring to know you can if you have to. I’ve found that I love target shooting and even cleaning my firearms. This from a girl who was terrified of guns growing up.

  21. dcandr says

    Sandra Bullock
    She had a stalker in her house while she was home not to terribly long ago. I’m sure she wants a gun for self defense. I would too.

  23. biancap says

    Actress: Vanessa Hudgens?

    [Optional] Why do you think she is doing this trainin? Maybe because she likes it. She has always said that she enjoys shooting and it makes her feel badass and all that.

  25. NativeAtlantaGirl says

    Nothing wrong with a woman protecting herself – unfortunate that she has to (allegedly) lie about it.

    Don’t know who it is.

  26. Moonpie says

    Actress: Kelly McGillis (wild guess).
    Opt: She is getting a gun and needs to train which is a smart idea. It’s a private thing, no need to advertise it. She might be concerned about a crazy ex. Then again if she is an anti-gun gun control public advocate, she may see this as a backlash.

  28. emmbee says

    I’m confused by the related blind supposedly being Sean Penn & Charlize Theron. Given her history with guns I highly doubt this is her but I’m stumped

  30. blablabla123 says

    All though everyone guessed Sean Penn/Charlize for the similar blind .. I’m thinking it might have been about Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes? “Sure enough” could play off Suri. Tom C is rumored to have a bad temper, and the picture on this blind could look like Katie H.

  31. ValleyOfTheGalls says

    Sandra bullock .

    She probably assumed that Hillary would be elected, and that it would be easier to get a gun license before the election.

  33. channel orange says

    For some reason I thought of Diane Lane or Charlize Theron, whom the related blind is about. I’m guessing a woman does this if they feel vulnerable or if they’ve received a threat. I hope it isn’t because of a stalker or something like that. :/

  34. CyndiTx123 says

    I am thinkingā€¦. Katie Holmesā€¦.
    protect herself from the scientology weirdos her ex husband Tom Cruise is involved inā€¦..

  35. gailpow says

    Just a guess: Naomi Watts? She just got divorced and is now living alone or with her kids sometimes.

  37. KCeagle says

    I’ve got a big fat nothing on this blind.

    Uma Thurman (lol) She’s got to Kill Bill. She’s black mamba and she’s got some business to take care of.
    Jessica Alba (lmao) because she lives in Sin City and she’s a dame to kill for. Plus they’re both hot…stalkers beware.

  41. bubbasbbq says

    She obviously made the conscious decision to arm herself and is learning how to properly handle a firearm in a responsible way. She also wants to be discreet and I think that is not a bad thing either. This is nothing to be ashamed about.

  45. redstilettos says

    Don’t know who this is, but maybe she has a stalker or a crazy ex and wants to protect herself?

  49. spunkie brewster says

    Idk about the actress but it could be that she wants to have a competitive edge against anyone else auditioning for the part or she’s friends with/trying not to tick off pro guncontrol people but feels she needs to be able to defend herself just in case.

    • spunkie brewster says

      Maybe Natalie Portman. Possible that she fears for her life once her husband finds out about her extra curricular activities

  50. CanaryCry says

    Probably most of ’em … probably not Amber Heard, drama queen that she is.

    I imagine whoever she is, is being stalked or wants to prepare herself for another worst case scenario, such as California going into total chaos & disorder.
