Funny Actor Loves His Toys

February 15, 2021 Blind Gossip

[Blind Gossip] We recently told you about a famous male comedian who has been hiding a secret his entire career.

We have another one for you!

This man is best known as a comic actor.

Like many comic actors, he did the standup comedy club circuit and guested on late-night TV shows before making the transition to TV and movies.

We are not talking about a second banana here. Our actor is a movie star and a TV star.

While he is not physically huge, our actor is definitely a man’s man. He’s the kind of guy who would come over to your home, fix your leaky faucet and then hang out with you for a couple of beers.

And while he doesn’t have the wide range of characters that some comics do, his relatable demeanor and observational comedy have made him very successful and very rich.

He loves using that money to buy the usual rich man toys. He also apparently likes to dabble in real estate.

Approximately twenty years ago our actor was shopping for a condo in a major city.

He was especially interested in a large unit on the top floor of a luxury building.

However, there was one other party – who was a little late arriving – whose approval he needed on the unit before closing the deal.

While the real estate agent was showing our actor the property, they had to buzz up the other party.

Who was the other party?

His agent? No.

His business manager? No.

His assistant? No.

It was someone who was actually going to be living in the luxury condo with our actor.

Fortunately for our actor, the other party loved the unit and told him that they would be very happy living there.

Our star closed on the luxury condo.

That’s almost the end of our story.

Except… who was the mystery party?

Well, our star is married. But the other party wasn’t his wife.

It was his very cute, much younger boy toy.

Our actor certainly love his toys!

    Tim Allen fits the clues best. So I do not think that this is Billy Crystal, but I want to inform anyone who doesn’t think of Billy Crystal as a TV star that he starred in the TV show “Soap” (as one of the first openly gay characters portrayed on US television) and was a regular cast member on “Saturday Night Live” (before it was known mainly as “SNL”) long before starring in movies or hosting the Oscars.

    Lol to all the Jerry Seinfeld guesses. 😂 I love Jerry, but he’s no one’s definition of a “man’s man” & I certainly don’t see him fixing his own sink, much less anyone else’s. He also isn’t known for doing movies. Most comedians in the 80s-90s did situational routines, not just Seinfeld.

    It sounds so much like Tim Allen, but wow what a surprise that would be!

    Probably not: Kevin Hart (his success is more recent; he would not have shopping for a luxury condo 20 years ago), Jerry Seinfeld (not a movie star), Steve Carell (didn’t do standup), Billy Crystal (not what I would call a TV star, save for hosting the Oscars, doesn’t seem really manly in the traditional sense).

    Tim Allen seems like the best guess.

    I’ll go with Tim Allen.

    Clues–fix faucet–Tim ‘The Toolman” Taylor character, buzz and toys–Toy Story Movie, beer–his character on “Last Man Standing” likes drinking beer.

    He doesn’t have a wide range of characters–he seems to play the same character over and over.

    And he is definitely rich.

    February 15, 2021 at 3:26 pm

    Tim Allen

    “Buzz” as in Buzz Lightyear, he started as a stand-up comic then moved to TV and movies.

  62. churchlady says

    February 15, 2021 at 3:11 pm

    This has got to be Tim Allen. A manly man who can fix things relates to his “Men Are Pigs” stand-up routines and the TV show Home Improvement. He likes his toys = Toy Story, plus the fact that he collects muscle cars and hot rods

  63. caela94 says

    February 15, 2021 at 2:50 pm

    Tim Allen
    Clue. Repair sinks

  64. Carnac The Magnificent says

    February 15, 2021 at 2:39 pm

    Star: Tim Allen
    Clues: ‘Man’s man’ (his comic persona), fix the leaky faucet (Tool Time), ‘loves his toys’ (Toy Story movies)

    That one would be a big surprise for me. Didn’t see that one coming at all.

  65. catlady says

    February 15, 2021 at 2:32 pm

    Tim Allen.
    That was an accurate description of his career (minus the jail time) The references to fixing a leaky faucet are because of his time on Home Improvement.
    All the ‘toy’ references are because of his role on Toy Story. As is the ‘buzz him in’ bit – he played Buzz Lightyear.

  66. blubelle says

    February 15, 2021 at 2:31 pm

    Star: Tim Allen

    Clue: “He’s the kind of guy who would come over to your home, fix your leaky faucet and then hang out with you for a couple of beers”. Home Improvement

  68. joheinous says

    February 15, 2021 at 2:26 pm

    Tim Allen—Fix it, and hang out “Home Improvement”. Loves his toys “Toy Story”. Man’s Man “Last Man Standing,”
    My favorite is his movie “Galaxy Quest”

  69. princesspea says

    February 15, 2021 at 2:23 pm

    for some reason, steve carrell comes to mind. the toys reference could be a nod to his characters toy collection in 40 year old virgin
