3 blinds in a row

The world at large is learning something today they should have known for the entire run of this decades long network performance/talent show. It is rigged. / This permanent A list singing legend from a group, was in really bad shape last night. When you get to be his age, drugs just really mess you up. I think his girlfriend may be trying to kill him. / I'm not usually one for pregnancy watch, but when it comes to delaying an album and tour because of it, then it is worth discussing. The one who uses crutches is the mom. The dad is someone she has been seeing for awhile, but rarely is seen with him in public

Misdeeds: This was going to be a nightmare. Everyone had to stay quiet.

In a previous blind item, I wrote about a stipend this former singer receives from a former employer. At the time I wrote it, I was under the impression it was sort of a good deed kind of thing. I knew the payments had been made for years, but it turns out the payments to the former singer are not a good deed, but to cover up misdeeds.

Apparently they wanted the ratings boost.

This barely legal to drive celebrity offspring of celebrities most of you know, was actually paid a very large fee to appear on this competition show. That is not the usual practice. Apparently they wanted the ratings boost.
