Still In His Pajamas

[Blind Gossip] This movie star has earned more than one Oscar over his long career. He is normally energetic – and even a little devilish – in his behavior. However, things have taken a sudden turn. He seems to be on a downward spiral.

When he was asked about attending this year’s Academy Awards, he simply said “No!” and hung up the phone.

A concerned long-time friend paid him a visit.

Even though it was scheduled, [Actor] seemed to have forgotten and was still in his pajamas at two o’clock in the afternoon. He smelled like he hadn’t bathed in a week. He seems worn out even though he hasn’t been working lately. It’s like he is tired of life and just slipping away.

[Optional] What do you think is going on with him?

    Jack Nicholson?

    “devilish” could be a nod to his role in The Witches of Eastwick. Man is nearly 80 — maybe dementia.

    He has gotten pretty much no award season love for awhile. It’s weird, it’s like they turned in him or something

    Ohno- not Jack Nicholson!! I have read that he is having issues with memory and such…..

    Jack Nicholson? He’s certainly known for his devilish grin. He was also the devil in the movie “The Witches of Eastwick.”

    What’s going on – he’s 79 years old – maybe he’s tired.

    Actor: Jack Nicholson

    Hints: “Devilish” – played the devil in The Witches of Eastwick

    What’s going on: Turning 80 this year. Possibly dementia and/or his penchant for hard living is catching up with him.

    Jack Nicholson. He hasn’t done a film in years.

    Gene Hackman hasn’t worked in a film in over a decade.

    This could be either Jack or Al, as both have played old scratch, are older and have won awards. I will go with Jack.

    Jack Nicholson? I do miss seeing him at the oscars with his sunglasses on.

    Maybe he is suffering from depression? Drinking too much? Hopefully someone can help him sort things out before it’s too late.

    I don’t know who this is but, I feel terrible for them. If this is something like dementia or Alzheimer’s? From personal experience this is devistating for the individual & a private matter. I don’t know how you would deal with this if you are in the spotlight & trying to maintain your public image. Hope that I’m wrong.

    Jack Nicholson

    Hey, he’s older, he’s had an amazing career and all, but, maybe he just wants to slow down and enjoy the pajama-jammie-time he’s entitled to. Seriously, once you don’t live by a set schedule, time has WAY less meaning.

    Jack Nicholson. (Clue: Played the devil in Witches of Eastwick.)

    He’s old and alone. Those years of catting around were fun while they lasted, but in the end… there’s nobody there to hold when he goes to bed at night. Even his pal Warren Beatty finally got married.

    Jack Nicholson – described as “devilish”, like his role in Witches of Eastwick.

    Maybe he’s just getting older and is dealing with the things that happen to some people as they age. He’s almost 80… Maybe he’s just experiencing “I don’t give a *”, maybe he’s hitting early-onset Alzheimer’s or dementia? Hope not, but it happens…

    Jack Nicholson

    He’s hitting 80 in April and was in the news with Peter Fonda saying he was basically retired.

    Could be depressed because he doesn’t have a new project on the horizon.

    I hope this IS NOT Ben Affleck. He needs to buck up and get over Live By Night – nothing is worse than Gigli.

  81. BetteBoo25 says

    Al Pacino. He’s a known depressive and he played the Devil in that movie with Keanu Reeves.

  89. High Steppa says

    My guess is Jack Nicholson (from the “devilish” clue – Witches of Eastwick). Maybe substance abuse? Didn’t Jack party hard in the old days?

  95. CanaryCry says

    Jack Nicholson. “Devilish” – Witches Of Eastwick. He won Best Actor twice.

    Old age has caught up to him – it’s it, that’s that.

  97. dcandr says

    Jack Nicholson
    Clue: “devilish” – he played the devil in The Witches of Eastwick. Also, he has won 3 oscars. I hope he’s okay!
