Number 5 could be the on-screen dad of the boy left on his own over Christmas. He also got himself into trouble with regards to stalking and harassing an actress back in the 90s.
Hmm, from looking at his relationship history I would say this is a very decent guess.

In any case, I would say the wording "one of the lead" implies to me that we shouldn't necessarily be thinking of the main character, or that there was equal screen time between mains. Grinch didn't fit.

From CDAN:

1. It’s a music video and not real life. If it was real life would there have been several women on standby to service him orally before, during and after the shoot? Do you really think she would be ok with that?

2. Studios are ticked off at this A list mostly movie actress and her recent comments. She has been going about 25% on promoting movies and has been taking advice from a director that studios hate. Oh, plus she is ticking off fans. One studio head already crossed her off a list for the lead in a box office flick that she had been "circling."

If it's J-Law, that would be ridiculous. Probably the hottest female property in cinema and she's throwing it all away!

It is probably the most obvious guess but I don't know because she has always been quite outspoken for example her views on equal pay, the photograph scandals etc

Probably more annoyed with the lack of work promoting a film? However she seemed to be everywhere when her last film was released to me. Certainly didnt seem to be doing 25% of the promo work her male co star was doing.

Wouldn't she be A+ by now on the rating system?

I was wondering if it could be the other female young adult actress who lived the secret life of a teenager, wasn't she arrested for her views recently? Although I am not sure I would class her as A list.

I think its intended to be the obvious guess. There has been a marked difference this year in the amount of effort she has made to promote her latest film, yes she has been everywhere in body , dresses and make up, but not in the things she has said to try and sell and promote the film!

She has consistently said she liked the original script, but has nothing to say about liking the end result, which hasn't helped the films critical mauling. To be fair she hasn't ever been that great at selling her films, but she (or her team) has been much better previously at selling herself and her girl next door personality.

she has also been telling fans that she has no interests in taking selfies and talking to them out of a work /promotional scenario, which may well be true, but probably not that great to say ,from a PR point of view in an interview!

some of her silly comments during this latest round of publicity makes it almost look as if she is trying to push a self destruct button! So she can do the indie movies she wants to do. I wonder if she is going to get away with it.?

I'm not saying this is the case with this particular actress, but I've often wondered whether some actors, of both sexes, do enough crap to set themselves up financially, though not actually to be rich, so that they are secure enough to get on with doing the good roles they rate, but which don't actually pay. Michael Caine was quite open about doing dross in order to earn a living in between taking far more interesting roles, and I've always liked him for it. Also many actors might think they wanted to be 'stars' but when it happesn just don't relish it and withdraw more.

She's always been known for her 'dumb' comments, but recently she's been even more openly ignorant and so careless about her attitude. She's beginning to rub people the wrong way.
There's the next 'down to earth, just like the common folk' starlet waiting to be pushed forward.

I do think that with actresses there is often one key player who is top of the pile for a year or two and then another one replaces them. I guess JLaw has managed it for a few years now and is due her lull.

Thinking of actresses such as Halle Berry, Sandra Bullock, Gwyneth Paltrow... everywhere for two/three years and then move on to much quieter (but still working) periods

Given the nature of Hollywood I think that is more about them aging than anything else. Most actresses know that they have a few short years to be the hot young thing before they are tossed aside. Shakespeare's wife gave an insightful interview about it earlier in the year.

As for Katiniss - she got known and praised for being a certain way by the media and was expected and demanded to be that way but to keep it up she's had to exaggerate beyond her natural personality. Be klutzy and goofy- no you did that goofy last interview do something new but not different. Of course it's fake now.

From The Gossip Life:

Whilst you were all drinking and eating and having a good time, I was getting my bitch on to the nth degree... whilst simultaneously drinking and eating and having a good time. Yes, I was up to some good old fashioned networking over the holidays and I happened to obtain some of the details of a working agreement between this A-lister and a few media outlets. In return for continued coverage of their ambitious offspring, the A-lister can be featured in articles, photos and interviews etc. as long as the focal point is on the offspring and not them. 'We can use [name omitted] to reel people in,' confides my source, 'but any articles need to be about the kid.'

you want a list?

It is probably more about the fickle nature of fandoms, and who the media choose as their current sweetheart. She got too famous too fast, and has had too much power and clout, so to some extent some kind of fall was almost inevitable. A lot of the media at the moment are being critical of her, and she hasn't bothered to cultivate a fan base on social media who will stand by or support her.

she has been particularly silly in some of her comments on this press tour. Which have fed straight into negative publicity!

There was offending fans who thought she had offended ancient Hawaiian nature/stone gods, by rubbing her bum on and dislodging stones, she had to apologise to the internet for this,

She has openly said to the press, that she wont talk to fans if she is at dinner, or talk to fans and/or take selfies in the street, she prefers to be in her own bubble. Which makes sense, but sounds a bit selfish and entitled, surely there is a slightly more polite way to say that I need a bit more privacy and space? Especially after being so good at playing the girl next door, who apparently liked interacting with everyone.

But then despite desperately wanting this privacy, and fans to keep out of her non working life, She has been photographed looking extremely awkward, with her current director boyfriend, who is 21 years older than her, on 3 or 4 pap walks in NYC, both before and after her film tour. Yet not said a word about him on the film tour, she behaved and sounded as if she was single.

She taped a NYE show, where she bemoaned the fact that she had never been kissed on NYE, and gave the impression that she hadn't got a current boyfriend, and then the same evening out come a set of photos of her and her boyfriend on New Years eve, with the obvious headline, at last she gets her NYE kiss!

She and her team were so good at playing the fame game, and she is still powerful and an amazing actress, but... I wonder what will come next? Will she get her act together and avoid the media for a while for the sake of a quiet life, or allow them to make her into a joke?

Spoiler
Yup all good points. The media builds up these celebrities to have certain characteristics etc just to tear them down at the most opportune moment imo. Don't know if at this point Katniss even knows how to have an interview without playing up to the character she thinks we want to see. She's better off taking a break I think.

This A list mostly movie actress who is an Academy Award winner/nominee better start being nice. This past weekend she called several fans bi**ches when they asked to take a photo with her. Our actress was drunk and just foul tempered to everyone.

Needs its own post this one!!

From CDAN:

Out of my normal range, but apparently this elderly A+ list royal used a mild cold as a great excuse to stay away from several possible threats against her life that intelligence services said were likely. Apparently this all came to light because one royal family member used the absence to garner himself a bunch of publicity. That has not helped his relationship with his older brother who knows the younger brother uses opportunities like this to line his pockets with questionable income.

From The Gossip Life:

She burst onto the scene as a hot young starlet with an even hotter nude scene(s). It was that hot nudity that caused people to take notice and soon saw her career fly into a stratospheric rise with many executives eager to sign the future star to their big movies for big numbers. Would you believe us if we told you that she's actually 5 years older than she claims to be? No one calls her out on it, because no one really knows and those who do have been paid off or dismissed. She is absolutely A-list.

The possibility of this being threat related was being discussed quite openly on some forums, I am not sure if I believe this - why send the rest of the royals if a threat existed? Surely getting rid of lower but still very senior royals would have serious repercussions anyway. Or, even worse, if a child had been a second target that would have been much worse. I think if the threat existed/was higher than normal, then no royal would have gone to church.

The bit about the brothers tagged on is pretty yawnsome too.

Well this seems to build on the previous blind and what was being discussed earlier up this page!

I get the impression that the senior royal in question is made of sterner stuff and wouldn't hide, especially when younger members of the firm are put at risk.
