Let's play "Name That Celebrity." The following blind item ran in the New York Post: "Which big-name Hollywood actor has fallen back into his druggie ways? The matinee idol, whose career has taken a nosedive, is consoling himself with controlled substances. His hot new gal pal shares his narcotic interests."

Well, this is frightening. I Googled "matinee idol" "drugs" and "2005", way too many articles brought up Donald Rumsfeld as the new sex symbol for the 70s-set. My real guess is Ben Affleck. Who's his new bedtime companion?

I love Blind Itgems and I've always wanted to start a thread like this! The answer to this BI is not Robert Downey Jr, though. His gf has been around a while....The correct answer, you will be shocked to know, is Ben Affleck. And you all know the GF.

I can't believe that Jennifer G is into drugs. She really doesn't seem like she's the type at all. I have one and I heard this directly from my sister's niece who worked on a hit television drama and went to a party at this star's home. I've seen pictures! This television star can barely make it through his lines, he's drunk most of the time. He has to be fed his lines and when not filming is sleeping it off in his trailer. He's the star of the show so they put up with his drinking but he is drunk almost every day.

Wow - how does JG stay in such great shape and look so healthy if she is a druggie? Mamie, would that be William Shatner - I am taking a wild guess!

I'm guessing that Mamie's is Vincent Donofrio (or however you spell it) from Law & Order Criminal Intent. He's been having problems with that sort of thing lately, if I recall. Hope I'm wrong, though! Shatner isn't the star of Boston Legal; he's a supporting actor, so I don't think it's him.

I was guessing Ben and Jen too....so sad, I like her. I heard Shatner and Spader are not getting along. Spader can't stand that Shatner shows up late and doesn't know his lines. Mamie, the dad for 7th Heaven! LOL One of the West Wing guys?
