Child Porn And Drugs - The Story Of Two A Listers: For the past month, I keep hearing that these two women, who were each at one point A listers were going to come forward and tell their story. They can tell it a lot better than me. One of them even knows the details of how this became one of the largest child porn rings in the world. Back when this show first aired, people were just starting to buy VCR's. Those are machines which play videos in cassette form. Yeah, a cassette was - never mind. The first A lister basically made her career from the show. All of you know her. I mean all of you. Although she credits her career to the show, she also credits her years of hard core drug abuse and her sex addiction and trouble with intimacy and commitment to the show. You tell me how you would be if at the age of 9 or 10 you were being offered drugs by producers and then while you were almost passed out from the drugs, being molested and raped by those same men. Oh, and a great percentage of other times they would take the boys you were starring with and make them have sex with you or the producers would be getting naked with the boys. What if they kept telling you how great you were and then sent you all over the world to promote the show? Did I say promote as in talking about the show? No, they sent her all over the world to have sex with guys interested in child porn in other countries who wanted to start their own versions of the show. When she got to be in her teens they pushed her out of the show and she ended up being molested by a different group of producers in a different corner of the entertainment world. She says she was first molested at 9 or 10 and that she did not have consensual sex until she was almost 20. Our second A lister was A list for much longer. ALL of you know her. She was kind of a replacement for out first victim. She was also about ten when she started on the show and started being molested and assaulted on an almost daily basis. She blames her trust issues and intimacy issues on the experience. She also says it is one of the reasons she ever refused to get naked or topless for a movie. It triggers her to see any kind of camera when she is topless or naked. That is the only way they would film her when she was a kid. She has never really relished being in the public eye but always said she would work enough to never have to work again and she has pretty much done that. The owners of these companies were incredibly smart sexual predators. They were constantly changing the name of the holding company. They would transfer ownership of the companies through other studios. They knew which producers and politicians loved child porn and would send them the videos. These guys started doing child porn and then realized if they started a television show or pretended they were starting a show they could have more access to kids. The way things worked, they made a few episodes of the show just to show people so they could get more kids. It was not until they met another child porn lover who was also a producer that saw the show that they sold it. One of these producers is still working today in the same kind of environment. For decades he has been doing what he does to children and tweens. The thing is though, none of his shows have really ever produced stars the level of the two mentioned here. Oh, one time about a decade ago, the second of our two victims in this blind was making noises about going public. One of the foreign child porn producers she had met one of her "exchange tours" arranged for her to make a record. Although it was released here, it was only a moderate success. In the country overseas though it sold millions of copies making her a huge star in that country. The company spent millions on advertising to ensure the sales and that deal has kept her quiet until now. I am really hoping they step forward because it will create the avalanche necessary to get all the other victims from that show and the ones since to step forward and bring this group down.

Show: "Kids Incorporated"
A lister #1: Stacy "Fergie" Ferguson (1984 - 1989)

Omg this is why i'm here. I just recently discovered the blind item websites. I was reading about how the rumor is that Heather O'Rourke died of a bowel obstruction and sepsis BECAUSE she was raped and sodomized by a few man after the filming of an episode of a tv show called Rocky Road shortly before she died. Then I read about Henry Winkler saying she had committed suicide in a video, (he said this in the video, not that she committed suicide in a video) but he seemed out of it in the video and the details were actually about Judith Barsi, and not Heather.

Then, to get to the point of this post, I fell down the rabbit hole and read one about Kids Inc and was totally totally blown away. I hope none of it's true but now i can't not think about it.

Tutors: There is a huge scam going on right now in preparation for the fall semester of school. It is a scam I used to see back in the day, but haven't for a long time. When I saw it back in the day, it was more for a money thing. This time it seems as if it is more nefarious. People who claim to be former tutors on the sets of shows are starting their own tutoring programs either at the home of a child or preferably at the home of the tutor with a couple of students. The thing is, a lot of these tutors are not real. They are using the names of actual on set tutors, but are not related to the shows at all. The 80's themed kids show is being name dropped by 20-30 people pretending to be tutors from that show and also trying to convince parents that in addition to tutoring, they will help your son or daughter make connections to land them a role. The crazy thing is, especially with that particular show, it wasn't even filmed in Los Angeles so this scam is being played here and in Atlanta. "Kids Incorporated"; "Small Wonder"

One Episode: I have talked about this show (“Kids Incorporated”) before. It was a breeding ground for predatory producers and casting directors and any other awful person who could think of an excuse to visit the set. It sent its arguably biggest star (Stacy Ann "Fergie" Ferguson) into a horrible world of drugs and booze and near death experiences before she became an A lister. There was one actress (Brittany Murphy) who was set to appear on an entire season of the show. All of you know her. She peaked at A/A- list. She lasted for exactly two rehearsals and one episode (“Kids Incorporated”/“Celeste”/Episode: "Lay Off") which she almost didn't do. After the second rehearsal two men got the not old enough to drive actress drunk and then sexually assaulted her in an office. The next day was the filming of the episode which she did, but she never went back to the show. Her mom threatened to sue and one of the producers got her a job (“Clueless”) which led to her becoming a star, but she was never the same after that day and generally lived in a numbing stupor. “Kids Incorporated”/Stacy Ann "Fergie" Ferguson/Brittany Murphy/“Kids Incorporated”/“Celeste”/Episode: "Lay Off"/”Clueless” (BLIND ITEMS REVEALED 11/07/19)
