Golden Globe Promise

[Blind Gossip] Both the director and producer of this 2017 movie worked hard to get this actress to accept her role. One of them promised her that he would personally go to bat for her during awards season and that he would do everything he could to get her nominated.

She wound up having an affair with him. She wasn’t pressured, and it wasn’t a quid pro quo situation, but she felt confident that he was now incentivized to keep his promise.

She was very sure that she was going to receive a Golden Globe Awards nomination today.

He didn’t keep his promise… and she didn’t get nominated.

    I started reading about the notable snubs with the Golden Globes, and JLaw’s name kept popping up. So, I’m going with Jennifer Lawrence for this one. And the director is the one she slept with willingly, namely Darren Aronofsky.

    I think he failed to keep his promise because the movie was so bad, and they ended their relationship. Actually, come to think about it, she more than likely dumped him, so he was bitter and didn’t fight for her nomination as a result.

    SHAME ON YOU JLAW !
    SUCH A NASTY GIRL.
    MAYBE YOU ARE AS UNTALENTED IN THE SACK AS YOU ARE ON SCREEN.

    JLaw and Darren Aronofsky.

    He didn’t have to do anything.She deserved to get nomination because she was incredible in mother!,

    She was SNUBBED.

    Actress: Gal Godot, apparently not wanting to be type-cast as Wonder Woman, and needing “incentive” to do Justice League.

    Producer/Lover: Ben Affleck, who did not go to “bat (man)” for Gal to get a nom, after all. (She would have been more likely to be nominated for “Wonder Woman” as lead actress, but nothing there, either.)

    Why? Because he’s a sleaze that will say anything to get a woman into bed, but never planned to follow through.

    Run, Lindsay, run!

    Jlaw and mother. She was banging Darren and Harvey’s done for. She needs a new benefactor. She won’t be able to open a big budget movie by herself.

  15. CelebrityGirl says

    Actress: I was going to guess Blake Lively based on the similar blind, but she didn’t have any movies released this year. Not sure…

    Her Lover: Harvey Weinstein as film producer

    [Optional] Why do you think he failed to keep his promise? He’s persona non grata in Hollywood now, so there was no way for him to keep his promise. And he probably would’ve reneged on her, anyway, because he’s Harvey Weinstein.

  17. High Steppa says

    A wild guess – Kate Winslet and Woody Allen. Why didn’t he (whoever it is) keep his promise? He just wanted to bang her!

    Actress: JLaw

    Her Lover: Aronofsky

    [Optional] Why do you think he failed to keep his promise? She dumped him

    Obvs about the League of Justice. I think Gal Godeau is too good for that situation, so I’ll go with Scammer Herd.

    Optional: Because she s*cks as an actress.

    Jennifer Lawrence for Mother. Had an affair with the director, Darren Aronofsky. I think the movie was just too weird for her to be nominated.

  24. MinnieMe says

    Jennifer Lawrence
    Darren Aronofsky
    He’s a jerk. He had no intention of getting her anything. He just wanted her.

  25. javelina says

    Jennifer Lawrence and Darren Aronofsky.

    He didn’t keep his promise because she spoke out about “me too.”

  27. Gossimer says

    Okay, this is a major long shot but…

    Actress: Cate Blanchett
    Her Lover: Taika Waititi or Kevin Feige

    I was trying to think of a 2017 film with a notable director and producer, in a movie that would require convincing a big star to join on. Thor: Ragnarok definitely isn’t a typical film for Ms. Blanchett, but it did well critically and financially, so a nom wouldn’t necessarily have been out of the picture for an actress of her caliber. I hope not, I respect all three of these people…

    Jlaw and darrin. The movie was terrible, it doesn’t matter if sir Lawrence Olivier was petitioning for it…….and had come back from the dead to do that!

  33. nycmadam says

    JLaw

    She was too trusting with this jerk. With DA’s history with actresses, she was foolish to think it would be different with her. She didn’t polish his reputation up, so there’s no point to wasting any more effort on her.

  35. hbartma2 says

    Jennifer Lawrence

    Darren Aronofsky

    welp, because they ended things..and if that wasn’t enough she opened up about it in an interview and aired whatever dirty laundry they had

  37. CeeSaw says

    because the movie sucked, is why she wasn’t nominated. and the relationship just went the course. I don’t think she was with him for a golden globe or promise.

  43. CharlotteSometimes says

    Jennifer Lawrence and Darren’s Aronofsky.

    She broke up with him before awards season and put out a pretty damning interview about their relationship.

  49. radmom says

    J-Law and that older guy, Aronofsky? “Mother” was a huge flop, and they’re not together anymore, and that is just one of the reasons.

  50. Brunettetalk says

    Kate Winslet and Woody Allen. Too bad the movie has grossed less than a million dollars in 2 weeks and that it’s rated at 36% good out of,100 on RT.

  51. blackmountainbones says

    Jennifer Lawrence and Darren Aronofsky

    either he realized there was no saving mother! and is trying to move on or is just a *, probably a combination of the two

  53. honeybunnyy says

    Actress: Jennifer Lawrence

    Her Lover: Darren Aronofsky

    Don’t think he failed trying, the movie itself had bad reviews and that made it difficult for him to deliver his promise.

  63. spaceship says

    With all the exposure of the abusing scums that’s going on now in the entertainment world, she should feel awful about herself.

  69. eyetaliangossip says

    I don’t see how this could be JLaw. She had worked with DA beforevand she’s already got an Oscar. Why would she care?

  70. Blkgoddess says

    Who will be her benefactor now? I’d like to think that with all these heads rolling in Hollywood that perhaps these actresses and actors too will actually have to rely moreso on their talents on the screen than in the bedroom. That includes JLaw.

  73. sandralange33 says

    J-Law and her creepy uncle Darren Aronofsky.
    I’d wager she dumped him when it was becoming obvious he couldn’t deliver on any award noms for her. Because the movie was so hated.
