Cheap & Crafty
No shortage of classless behaviour in Hollywood and above the maybe gaybe speculation and the drug drama, it’s these stories that are the most shocking:
How can the privileged behave so poorly?
Especially someone who sounds so elegant? Whose record has been spotless and golden?
Then again, it’s always the ones you least expect.
In her case however it’s become an M.O., a trail of cheapness wherever she goes.
So you know when you stay at a hotel, if the soap and bath products happen to be on the higher end, it’s customary to ask for a few refills and take some home? This of course is standard behaviour for US…because we’re broke!
But how about a busy, working actress, married to a busy working man, both with several projects on the go – does it then become less acceptable? Almost shameful? I think so yes.
And still she does it wherever she goes – on junkets, on promotional tours, whenever she’s at a hotel, she orders up extras: extra shampoo, extra lotion, even extra bathrobes, taking EVERYTHING home… yes, even the bathrobes. The bathrobes that are washed then used again by every guest staying in that suite, she insists on bringing it all with her. Including the gifts too.
She is also not shy with special requests. Lighting fixtures, humidifiers, strollers – kinda major items you’d think would be on loan, right?
Wrong.
She packs those up with her too. The woman leaves NOTHING behind.
The question is: what does she do with it all?
Would you believe she gives it to her staff? She saves the little soaps and gels and crafts them into small baskets and presents them to the nannies and the housekeepers as bonuses!
Can you imagine? Can you imagine a Christmas gift basket full of hotel shampoos and conditioners?
I mean How.F&cking.Tacky.

This is so awesome. I was thinking Reese, but she's not married anymore.

This is a good one. But it sounds re-hashed.
The bathrobe reference was what popped out at me.

Obviously a woman that came from nothing...and is desperately attempting to hang on. Even though she gives the shit away, she's just being greedy.
I like the CZJ answer....
I don't know, for some reason Sharon Stone also came to mind.

Is Sharon Stone married w/ children?
Because of the stroller reference, it has to be someone with young children. Julia Roberts is also a guess, but I don't know what her husband does and if he's busy or not.

Sharon Stone isn't married but does have young (adopted) kids...so since she isn't married guess it isn't her.
Could be Julia....Lainey hates her.

I seem to recall of photos of both CZJ and Julia in bathrobes... could be either one of them.
Throwing in Kate Beckinsale, who just came to mind.

I think maybe Julia, too. I may be reading too much into it, but if it were CZJ, you'd think Lainey would have said "married to a busy working actor" instead of "man"?

Julia, Julia, Julia. She's rumored to be cheap.

"Especially someone who sounds so elegant? Whose record has been spotless and golden? "
I don't think either Julia or CZJ have spotless and golden records. Julia especially cannot be described as "elegant'.
Although it pains me immensely to suggest this because I am a big fan, I thought of Cate Blanchett.
golden = "Elizabeth: The Golden Age"
Her husband is a regular working man - not actor.

Kate Winslet was in Eternal Sunshine of the "Spotless" Mind
Golden could reference her Academy Award nominations

Very tacky! How about Kate Winslet.
Spotless- Eternal something spotless mind film she was in
Golden- She is blonde and been nominated for golden globe
Plus she seems kind of elegant and well spoken
Jupiter jones- I was typing as you posted, jinx!
