Back in the ’80s, Andrew McCarthy and James Spader spent a lot of time together. That is because they both starred in Pretty in Pink, Mannequin, and Less Than Zero. But then they lost touch with each other as co-stars often do.
But then, about ten years ago, they reconnected when McCarthy directed Spader in The Blacklist. So you can say that the St Elmo’s Fire star is no longer on the Sex, Lies and Videotape actor’s bad list.
As you can see in the above photo. And on that note, McCarthy asked, “Haven’t aged a day, have we?” They haven’t. And I say that they still look pretty in whatever color they wear. Although, I would prefer it if they wore nothing! What? I was Team Blane and Team Steff!
James Spader was on The Tonight Show yesterday, and he had some big news to share with Jimmy Fallon. His show Blacklist was picked up for a 10th season.
The drama is proving to be the little show that could. Because I didn’t know it was still on. So I guess I am in the minority because it is still on the air and will be for another season.
Back in the mid-’80s before Kim Richards was a Real Housewife and James Spader was a household name, the two of them dated when they worked on a little movie called Tuff Turf.
The actress revealed this yesterday on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen. Actually, it wasn’t like she outright said it as much as she showed it.
A caller asked if she hooked up with her former co-star, but before she could say yes, her bright red face said it all.
Did they have a long affair? Nope, it was just a showmance. Lucky for him, or we would be watching him on Bravo instead of NBC.
I am going to have to rewatch the movie this weekend to see if you can tell the chemistry between them was real.

Before James Spader played the bad guy in several movies like Pretty In Pink, Mannequin, and Sex Lies and Videotape, and television shows, he was a bad influence in Team-Mates. He looks the same now as he did when he was 17 in that 1978 movie.
Make sure to watch the second scene because it stars a 55-year-old Estelle Getty as a teacher.
The Blacklist filmed its 150th episode today, and NBC had a little gift for them. The drama that stars James Spader will be back for an 8th season!
That was not the only show to get that news today. So You Think You Can Dance will waltz into their 17th season this summer. Cat Deely returns as the host, and the judges are Nigel Lythgoe, Mary Murphy, and Laurieann Gibson.
