That's what Randy Quaid was afraid would happen to him and his wife Evi when their strange adventure began. It started with some legal beefs over unpaid bills. Quaid claims that he and his wife were totally set up. That's the way these 'total businessmen' operate. Then things got gradually worse, until the Quaids had become something of a joke in the entertainment community. With their reputation ruined and the law closing in with a vengeance, that left the Quaids looking for sanctuary. They attempted to find that in Vancouver, Canada, until the long arm of the law closed in on them there too. Once they were picked up outside a bank it looked like deportation, and a messy trial/media spectacle would follow.
The Quaids have so far short circuited that. They applied to the Canadian government for protection, claiming that they were refugees from Hollywood who only wanted to be left alone by the criminals in the United States. If they were sent back then their lives would be in immediate jeopardy from the band of above the law star whackers who've offed the likes of Heath Ledger and others.
Now when that first came out people thought that it must be a lame ploy to avoid deportation. Canada won't sent people back if they're in immanent danger of being killed. However if it's a ploy then the Quaids are taking it to the next level. Randy & Evi gave an interview on Good Morning America today in which they elaborated on their strange conspiracy theories. Not only did they give some details on what they believe is happening to them, but also named some names about who else might be at risk. According to Bonny & Clyde, Lindsay Lohan needs to watch her step - but not in the way that Dr. Drew means (If there are star whackers out there then Dr. Drew has got to be in on it. He already demonstrated criminal tendencies with his "frame her up better than the Mona Lisa" comments about Lohan.). Britney Spears is on thin ice too. Their master stroke was left for Mel Gibson.
According to the couple Gibson has been targeted by the Star Whackers. What's more Oksana Grigorieva was 'sent in' to 'destroy him'. Now that's consistent with their thinking. Gibson has been very successful, so his royalty stream has gotta flow like Niagra Falls, even after all those unpleasant telephone recordings about rose gardens and blow jobs. All some shrewd star whacker would have to do is get him declared mental, take over power of attorney, and make sure that he's discredited in the media so that he will neither be believed or defended! That would explain everything except the tapes themselves. Evi has an answer for that one thought - "He was drugged! Some one slipped him a mickey!" she claimed on GMA. Most people who know about Mel assume that he was drunk and that no one else slipped him anything that he wasn't voluntarily sipping. Still if some one wanted to slip him a mickey, it probably wouldn't be too hard - "Hey Gibson - wanna drink?"
But enough commentary. Here are the Quaids in their own words from that Good Morning America interview! They explain everything including how close Dennis Quaid is to becoming another Hollywood casualty. He's already been pigeon holed into making crap films, according to Evi. Dennis has also been mysteriously alienated from his brother and sister in law. The "crap movies" comment may have had something to do with that. You know how sensitive performers can be. However Evi reassures viewers that Dennis is talented, so no slight was meant. Here now is the interview, so put on your tin fiol hats and be prepared to be amazed.
A compelling argument. Lucidly communicated too. They've answered everything. In fact the only stone left unturned would be a possible Diana Napolis aka Curio Jones connection. I've always wondered why that particular story got buried by the media. I guess no one messes with Jennifer Love Hewitt! Now before you poo poo these ideas remember that stranger things have happened, unless Marylin Munroe really did od on sleeping pils. Besides, 'Hollywood Star Whackers' anagrams to 'Swarthy, hallowed crooks' That's gotta be more than coincidence!
It's easy to make fun of the Quaids. For one thing they're obviously crazy. However let's move out of our comfort zones for a moment, and assume for the sake of argument that they're sane. For one thing they're not saying anything that hasn't been said before. When the late lamented Michael Jackson passed on from Neverland to the final neverland, his own sister Janet claimed that he'd been helped along by people around him that had decided he was worth more dead. At the time we assumed that it was grief talking and so everyone cut her slack. Yet it has just been announced that Michael Jackson was Forbes Top Dead Earner last year. He made $270 million, and that's more than Oprah! Now Jackson's family say that they haven't seen one thin dime of this. The business managers pay the bills but won't issue them any checks. So where's the money going?
Also, in some twitter posts some time back Courtney Love claimed that she was being ripped off by a group of business managers who had set up bogus social insurance numbers for her late husband Kurt Cobain. They then proceeded to take out mortgages on these SIN's. Love claimed that these financial shenanigans had left her almost broke.
Now when Courtney starts talking strange people assume that she's on something and they stop paying attention. Yet a pattern is developing. So many Hollywood stars passed on back in 2009 that people began referring to it as the year of death. It seemed that there were more deaths than might be expected from coincidence alone. So who's to say whether or not there might be something to the talk of conspiracies and star whackers.
BTW happy birthday to the world's most beautiful woman Aishwarya Rai.
Incidentally, one of Ms. Rai's biggest pet peeves is people who pronounce her lat name as Buchanan! You can call her the most beautiful woman in the world though, well right after this chick!
