So, I was reading an article the other day about this actor and I love how he just ignores the part of his life that was wild and crazy. Just because there was no TMZ to capture a moment, does not mean no one remembers. People were there. Like me.


Back in the day, there was a very popular sitcom on the air. It was on one of the big 3, although the 4th network did exist at the time. It was also long running. Anyway, the star (A- list then and now probably a C+)of the show was kind of coming into his own and testing the dating market. He had not done much previous to the show and was enjoying all the female attention. One person he was interested in was a co-star on the show (B- list then. Now, you probably don't even know her name). A little older but so good looking. He was head over heels for her, but she was so far ahead in the school of life that it was comical to watch. She humored him and one day she had a lot to drink and they had sex. To her, not a big deal. To him? It was love. In order to keep up with her he started drinking and doing coke because that is what she was doing and he wanted another chance with her. Every so often she would. Meanwhile, the star was a wreck. The drinking and drugs were out of control. So, a little time passes and our star goes to make a movie. This leaves the co-star behind and she hooks up with this guest star (at the time a no one. Later A list and now still a B) on the show. Well, when our actor comes back and finds this out he is devastated and the spiral downward which had stopped when he was shooting the movie is back on again. She explains to the actor that they were not exclusive and he was away after all. So, the actor resumes his puppy dog ways, until he goes out one night and spots the co-star making out with a gentleman who was also with the show and who was about double the age of the co-star. At this point our star goes on a week long drug and alcohol binge that was legendary for years. And this was at a time when people could spend some money on coke. This was out of control. It lasted for one week then he snapped out of it, went to the producers and said he would walk unless the co-star was fired. She was. Never spoke to her again.


#1 - Show
#2 - Star
#3 - Co-star
#4 - Guest star


My guesses are:
1. Growing Pains
2. Kirk Cameron
3. Julie McCollough
4, Brad Pitt
 
I agree with Ejm that Brad Pitt is still pretty A-list. I do think, though, if you switch out Brad Pitt and replace him with Matthew Perry the blind still works. MP was really A-list back during the Friends era, but he's definitely not A-list now. He could be classified as B-list now. He also had a recurring role as Sandy on Growing Pains, and looking at IMDB, it says he was on in 1989, which is the year that one of Kirk Cameron's movies came out.
 
4. This A list mogul set the standard for every record producer/artist who came after him. Well, they would probably go ahead and not want the first wife, but everything else is ok. Anyway, lately our mogul has been going on blind dates. His only rule? “They need to be white and not talk very much.”

I say Russell Simmons for #4.
I have met him out at 1Oak, and at his age, I was shocked to see him there so late and girls were all over him. I would not doubt that this was him for a moment
 
[BlindGossip] The first incident was a couple of months ago. She told friends that she had pulled a muscle during a fitness session. A few weeks later, there were bruises on her arm. She attributed those to roughhousing with the kid/s. Then there was the black eye, skillfully hidden from view with makeup and a baseball cap. She told her friends that she got it when she pulled a book off a high shelf and it hit her in the face. Her friends think that those are an awful lot of excuses for anyone… but especially for an actress whose husband who is known for his quick temper.

I haven't got a clue. Although Jennifer Garner popped into my head somehow, but that is sad, whoever it is.
 
Jennifer Garner was also the first thing I thought of when I saw that post, must have been the photo of Ben Affleck's shiner from a few weeks back and the fact that Garner is often photographed wearing baseball caps.

I thought Stiller/Taylor and Lane/Brolin were the best guesses only because both those guys seem to have volatile tempers but that blind is so vague it could be anyone.
