Blind Item Questions and Answers
This morning, we asked you to solve two potentially easy-peasy blind items regarding a cheating morning show man and a ballistic Hollywood director. No blue balls for you, the answers are in.
We asked: What morning TV host is now living apart from his wife because she hired a private eye who bugged his car? The hidden microphone caught him having an affair with a lovely young reporter for a cable station.
You said: Matt Lauer in a landslide. It breaks our hearts to think that the Today Show co-host could be a cad, but stranger things have happened, and his marriage has been in purgatory for quite some time now. Other guesses included Miles O'Brien, Regis Philbin (uh, vomit?), and, inexplicably, a few of you are hoping that the bad boy is Tony Danza. Here's another question: Who's the lovely young reporter giving road head?
We asked: Which young hotshot director lost a big superhero movie project because he pulled a gun on one of the producers?
You said: A few guesses for McG, but in one big, collective "duh," most of you said Brett Ratner. Upon reportedly quitting the project, Ratner threw down with producer Jon Peters. He commented, "I don't need a guard to pull a gun on someone." No, but you do need to wear tracksuits and be batshit obnoxious.
