Daily Blind Item — The Comeback
Louis CK made his comedy comeback recently after getting caught up in the #MeToo media blitz.
Well, this A lister is readying for a comeback too. He’s apparently reached out to friends and allies. No one is taking the bait just yet, but he’s trying to make something happen, but it might not be nearly as mainstream or as Hollywood as he maybe would like.
Usually I would suspect Hollywood would be forgiving in a situation like this (Mel Gibson, Alec Baldwin etc), but a lot of people are scared of a backlash, especially with how bad it could look in the media.
So, tell me, Gossipers:
Who is our A lister?

All of the scumbag predators LOL

Same. Hollywood has a short memory. If Mel Gibson can make a comeback after his Jew comments, then anyone can.

If Trump and the deplorable R Kelly can survive their scandals, then the rest of them can.

Who are the allies that he’s reached out to? Mia and Ronan Farrow?

Could you imagine?? That would be an awkward family reunion!!

That kinda sounds like a Woody Allen movie 😛

Ronan is definitely Frank Sinatra’s son. Mia was obviously playing away from home just as much as Woody.

Louis C.K. is a pervert, but he is not even close to the level of the rest of them. The media was just hungry to take that masturbating Mexican down.

This is why Trump is building the wall. Keep the masturbating Mexicans out!

When will that start getting chanted at the rallies? Just before the 2020 election?

Harvey Weinstein. I hope he isn’t that bloody unaware of himself, but I can definitely see him pulling something like this!!

I really can’t see Harvey ever producing again. Dame Edna has a better shot at working in Hollywood.
LikeLike
Harvey is too high profile and too associated with filth to ever be in the public eye again. Just can’t see it coming off without an uproar.
LikeLike
Harvey was the catalyst for #MeToo and #TimesUp, so I really can’t see how that would happen…

I guess Kevin Spacey. The LAPD just dropped their case against him. The timing works. Someone tell Kevin that NONE of us are interested in him coming back, especially after that statement.

When does his apology tour start? Has he found religion? Or charity work?

I just hope it’s more entertaining than that Mark Zuckerberg’s, bub. Very dry.

Pretty sure the Met are still investigating him. More evidence against him over here from the time when he ran the Old Vic. GL posted a blind item about his behaviour with waiters years ago.
LikeLike
Bloody hell. There are more important things for the Met to be focused on. Wish they would put their attention on terrorism instead of a washed up actor being a bit fruity ten years ago.

Great. This is exactly what women and men feared about coming forward. There should be no time limitations on historical sexual assault…

It only protects and enables the predators. That is why there needs to be a systematic overhaul.

Good guess. There’s a Usual Suspects hint in the blind.

Does it have to do with “taking the bait”? That’s the phrase that stands out as odd. I only saw The Usual Suspects when it first came out so I don’t remember if there’s a connection.

Took me awhile, but I put the cookies and aside and read it over and over. “Usually I would suspect”
