CDAN 3/22/2012 - The Crash & Burn

[GKing]

I don't think she necessarily guested on/in the hit comedy, she just slept with them all.

How about Amy Smart? She had her name above the title in a bunch of films in the mid-2000s, was in the Crank films, seems to have faded out somewhat after that but came back with a guest stint on Shameless and a couple films?

[Sassiness]

I thought this had Tara Reid all over it, but I'm drawing a blank on "guest spot on a very popular show" unless the writer is playing a huge joke about her stint on Celeb BBUK.

Tara Reid has a cameo in one of the early seasons of Scrubs as the awesomely bitchy lady's sister who has a fling with JD.

Sounds like her, to be honest.

^ Jordan's sister. Sorry - I fell asleep and skipped over the Scrubs reference earlier.

I like the Amy Smart guess. But Heather Graham is also a great guess, and she's definitely had more A++ costars than Amy Smart. Isn't she rumored to be a junkie, too?

I like this guess. Enty says she got a part in an indie film (possibly Columbus Circle, the film only had a budget of $10 million).

Enty also says at the end of the BI that she is "slowly turning her ship around". Could this be a reference to her Varsity Blues charater, Julie Harbor? She was also a speaker for the organization "Heal the Bay".

Amy Smart? Who?
"This actress is probably a C- right now for what she is doing now, but still has great name recognition. "

[FashionVictim]

Was Heather Graham ever tht big?

I thought about Keira Knightley too. But Kirsten Dunst is an interesting guess. She has often looked rather unwell in public.

Heather Graham is a fascinating guess, except...could ANYONE do coke for four straight years and still look as disgustingly healthy and youthful as her? She hasn't had a lot of obvious "refreshing" either, yet she looks at least ten years younger than she really is. And her body is nowhere NEAR not looking as good as ever, as the blind implies. On that point, Tara Reid is way more fitting. Her body shows what she's been up to the last ten years.

I just think that shit would show in Heather's face, and it doesn't.

The other thing about Tara is that she just seems like a boozehound to me. I mean, I'm sure she's done coke and just about everything else one can do, but mostly she just always seems drunk, not wired like a cokehead.

ETA: I wanted to throw two unusual names into the ring. One's older; but her career trajectory kind of fits. Especially, she spent the period after one big film (a franchise--sequel, anyway) from about 2004-2008/9 working very little, and not impressively. Also, her physical appearance has fluctuated wildly and badly during that period. She has often been terribly gaunt and sick-looking. She had a brief (4 monthish) marriage that was suddenly annulled. (Four months isn't a long time to impregnate three women LOL but...it can be done! And her harsh language on the annullment might reflect her disgust over the issue.)

I'm talking Renee Zellweger. Has she made any TV appearances lately? or an "indie"? She does reportedly have a studio film, the third Bridget Jones, in the works. This would be her first really big-time project in years.

Also up for consideration: Winona Ryder. Or is her shit all just pills and crazy...

He says she is on a precarious "edge" and the second Bridget Jones is Bridget Jones and the Edge of Reason.

Also she filed for divorce on the grounds of "fraud" and if her husband had knocked up a bunch of girls prior to their marriage I could see her filing fraud.

The blind also says she's been with her A++++ co star and she's co starred with Tom Cruise and Jerry Seinfeld in Bee Movie. She's always been really well connected in Hollywood which always puzzled me because she's not that good of an actress. I think this is a good guess.


ETA My Own Love Song is an Indie film she did in 2010.

Wrong BI.

Right, but it says the guest spot has come within the past 18 months, as part of her attempt to clean up.

[witchcurlgirl]

They thought she was already too cracked out, but they certainly gave her to investors because they wanted to prove they had connections and because our actress at the time drove guys crazy.

This part doesn't say Zellweger to me at all.

[nessysuperstar]

I am also thinking it's Heather Graham. I remember a couple of years ago there was a few blinds about an actress at a party doing coke right in front of the producers of a movie she was up for and acting crazy. Her career has never been stable. She's had I think two TV shows that have flopped. Lindsay must have been sharing her shit with her dumb ass agent when he turned down the role that went to Heather in the Hangover. Heather has worked with Johnny D, Robert Downey Jr and Will Smith. She also had 4 projects in 2009 AND 4 IN 2011 BUT only one 2010. Which could be when she was trying to get it together.

[dallison]

Did any of the blind items stars from the last couple weeks date any of these guys that Heather Graham dated?

unless we take it as driving them crazy in the unpleasant sense of the phrase.

[Serendipity]

I thought Lilo too, until the family intervention part because we know that would never happen *glares at White Hoprah*
