Protecting Her From The Timberlake Effect

October 13, 2020 Blind Gossip

[Blind Gossip] This young actress is in quite a pickle.

Although she has dated several different male actors in Hollywood, she has always had a squeaky clean image.

Until now.

She was caught smooching the actor who plays her dad in an upcoming project.

Kissing your dad? Gross!

Kissing your dad who is married in real life? Really gross!

Is there any chance this was a weird publicity stunt for their project?

Absolutely not! If they were both single and were playing lovers, it would be a possibility. Not in this case. In this case, it was just a stupid mistake.

Her publicists are going to have to take action to protect The Actress.

She needs both a short term and a long term strategy.

For the short term?

They do not want this to play out like the Justin Timberlake affair where she will permanently be branded a homewrecker. Maybe claim that she was young and naive and drunk and nothing really happened other than some flirting. A one-time mistake. She has to regain her rep as a naif.

For the long term?

They need to set her up with another man quickly. It won’t be a real relationship, but it will help distract.

What about our actor? After all, he is older and supposedly wiser. And married.

He is a horse’s arse. Everyone knows it. It won’t affect his ability to work one way or the other.

[The Actress’] career is the only one in danger.

That seems rather unfair.

What about The Actor’s Wife?

As long as she forgives him, he is good to go.

It will be interesting to see how each of the three parties – The Actress, The Actor and The Actor’s Wife – plays this over the next few weeks.

    The obvious Dominic West and Lily James.

    In the short term a bit of fake rehab? Not for anything illegal but depression or exhaustion. She can say she was not in her right mind and shes sorting herself out etc etc. By all accounts Rebecca is not a good film, so if it bombs rather than the blame being on the writer and director for writing a adaptation it will be on her. She has the time to go away for a while.
    fake relationships after Chris Evan’s wont wash I dont think.

    Seems he’s just like Noah Solloway after all.

    Lily James, Dominic West, she should dothe right thing and apologise to his wife for getting carried away and behaving stupidly. In other words, throw married Dominic (certainly not his first time behaving this way with co stars) under the bus. I hope his wife divorces him, particularly after the cringeworthy display in front of the press yesterday!

    Dominic Cooper & Lily James?

    Upcoming Project: BBC TV Series “The Pursuit of Love” based on a novel of the same name where Lily James plays Linda Radlett and Dominic Cooper plays her father, Matthew?

    The long-term strategy seems to be the best ‘career move’ & though I personally hate fake relationships, if both parties agree & somehow mutually benefit from it…then so be it. The short-term strategy seems too dodgy to work. People will forget if they focus on the long-term strategy…

    Lily James and Dominic West got caught snogging in Rome

    It’s probably happened before with another woman and his wife either exacts her own revenge or isn’t bothered.

    She was daft to get caught – thought she was messing with Captain America?! She should Kate Moss it – never complain never explain. She’s beautiful and talented (and white) and while the industry is unfair she has a pretty good reputation.

    I personally think having a relationship again would be a bad idea. She should maybe lie Low for a while, and one of her movies are coming out anyways, so most likely this will be old news by the time she begins doing promotions for that movie.

    It seems that he’s been pretty open about having affairs and his wife appears to be supporting him at least publicly, so I’d just lay low for now. It’s not really fair to blame her when he is the one who is married.

    Dominic West and Lily James. Not sure what she should do except stay the heck away from him and privately apologize to his wife in a letter. Some people might not think she owes that to his wife since he’s the cheater, but Lily knows he’s married and it’s the right thing to do. Honestly, I don’t think any less of her unless she’s seen with more married men. Everyone makes mistakes.

    Both careers are toast. For him, his marriage is dunzo also–no matter what is being reported. Get ready to lose big! I’m pretty sure his wife is going to name Lily for ‘alienation of affection’ in the divorce and then watch the sparks fly!

    • Stefanie2530 says

      October 14, 2020 at 4:16 pm

      I so very much want to agree with you regarding their careers being ‘toast’. But I just can’t. I respectfully disagree. We’re talking about Hollyweird here. Cheating is the norm. Its accepted and I think, expected as well. Just last week it was reported Dominic celebrated Trump’s COVID diagnosis. Nothing happened to him. No one really cared that he cheered about it. Hollyweirdos stick together and support one another. These two will be just fine career-wise, IMO.

    Dominic West’s wife has already “forgiven” him and did the cringeworthy staged kiss with him as a show of marital unity. Lily James is now left hanging as the other woman, even though it was Dom in the photos who was all over *her*. Pairing her up with anyone now is going to seem like a desperate PR move. Her only chance is a reconciliation with Matt Smith which fans might buy, but I doubt he’d do fakery to save her reputation.

    Lily James in Rome photographed making out with that sleazeball Dominic West. Will someone PLEASE explain to me why his lovely wife stays with him, and WTF Lily was doing with this horses ass old enough to be her father? I’m guessing her self esteem was liw after the breakup with Matt Smith. But, my God, girl- go for a hunk like Richard Madden. Not THIS jerk.
