Generally a few days after she initially posts the blinds. Occasionally she posts a "not" or two much later.

Thanks Fluffy!

Have no idea who this could be, but just wanted to chuck this in - wouldn't the "minivan majority" be aware of Anne Hathaway given her starring roles in The Princess Diaries movies? I'm making the assumption that these mothers would have kids who'd have watched that film though.

[Fluffy]

^I concur! I don't think of Anne as 'rising' anymore because she's already so well known.

[Sassiness]

If her boyfriend is a bit dodgy, then I'd think it was Anne. Lainey tends to post a blind soon before or after posting a regular blog which contains some sort of hint to that blind item. That bit quoted earlier by someone with the links between the unscrupulous boyfriend and Harvey Weinstein clinches it for me.

It's Anne. Poor bugger!

He's suspected of some kind of fraud, and that Anne was with him when he spent $ that wasn't his. I'm not sure of the details...

Update from Lainey:

PS. He is not holding Marion Cotillard. Or Eva Mendes. And not Heidi Montag who will never need to be the subject of a riddle. Why bother?

Yeah, it was something like that. I don't think it's Anne. The Lainey quote everyone keeps referring to is referring to his shady business dealings. Anne's BF isn't a Hollywood player, so there's not really anything for him to gain as far as holding onto her for public image purposes 'n' such.

Rather, I get the impression from the blind that the guy in this blind is holding on to the girl
as a desperate move in the Hollywood world. Brian Austin Green would surely fit the has-been, no prospects, girlfriend-is-source-of-press-&-future-opportunity vibe better.

I',m tellin ya....the minivan majority does not know megan fox well, she wouldn't appeal to them with all her tattoos etc. and I doubt lainey would write a sympathetic blind about an actress she despises.

hmmm...what about heigl? Opportunity knocks...knocked up....minivan majority favorite...a new husband who is in an unsuccessful band is a prime candidate for jealousy....just a thought

[GKing]

I like the Heigl guess. Wasn't she rumoured to want out of the relationship when she hit it big? She definitely fits the 'MiniVan Majority' piece, too.

[cherrybaby]

Heigl fits up until the last part:

And so she’s waiting it out. Waiting for the right time to cut him loose, while he keeps pressing to make their commitment more permanent.

This sounds like an unmarried couple.

Today (3/31/08):

PS. Josh Duhamel is not holding down Fergie. Stuart Townsend is not holding down Charlize.

From the New York Daily News today:

Is there trouble in paradise between Anne Hathaway and Italian boyfriend Raffaello Follieri? The "Devil Wears Prada" star was spotted solo at St. Ignatius Loyola Church on the upper East Side for Easter mass, standing in the corner, on the verge of tears for the entire ceremony. Maybe Anne was just moved by the service?

[nancydrew]

Because of this minivan majority thing Im thinking its someone younger than Anne, someone that the tween-teen set are into. Just a thought.

[Dixie Normos]

How about Drew Barrymore or Winona Ryder?

The minivan nation would crumble at Drew, and Winona can't afford any more bad press.
