I understand what you are saying, 12:25 AM. Ideally, those who later come out would not repudiate the feelings they earlier had with a wife or husband. Depending on the person, those emotions could have been 100% legitimate. But many think that if there was not honesty in sex, it means the whole thing was a lie.

But I think a lot of the "I'm gay" people who clearly had opposite sex relationships earlier, want to discard and minimize their earlier experiences.

They had those earlier heterosexual experiences only because they weren't ready to come out as gay, they wanted to "fit in", they wanted their life to be easier.

"I've been through all sorts of emotions with this, tears, anger and absolute despair," he said. "I wasn't sure if I ever wanted to let people know and, to be honest, I feel anxious about people's reactions.

"It's been really tough for me, hiding who I really am, and I don't want it to be like that for the next young person who wants to play rugby, or some frightened young kid."

The former Bridgend and Toulouse back said he knew he was gay at the age of 16 or 17. "I could never accept it because I knew I would never be accepted as a gay man and still achieve what I wanted to achieve in the game," he said.

"I became a master of disguise and could play the straight man down to a tee, sometimes over-compensating by getting into fights or being overly aggressive because I didn't want the real me to be found out. But when you withdraw into yourself you start to feel lonely, upset, ashamed."

I agree. Maybe this is what Jake meant when he said this: "Whatever I dreamed and hoped for in my career and life is not how it's gone in a lot of ways and I love that."

My point is not who Jake fucked. It's the ridiculousness of this po-faced person citing "facts" to diss Kirsten but conveniently ignoring the lack of "facts" about Jake sleeping around on her.

Jake and his PR did their best to sell "heterosexual" Jake. Jake and his PR did their best to hide the real, homosexual Jake. How many times do we need to repeat something so obvious?

OMG. Are you a virgin? Have you ever had sex with people? You sound like you live in a basement, hate the opposite sex and do not know what it's like to be human at all. Seriously. Come back when you've lived and experienced life instead of viewing it thru a tunnel.

Ok so-called experts. How do you define homosexuality, bisexuality, and heterosexuality? Come on, tell me.

Anonymous said...

I suppose I was always suspicious, but I was in denial. Early in our relationship, Chris told me he'd had homosexual experiences as a teenager but assured me it was youthful curiosity. I didn't think there was anything wrong with being gay — I have an openly gay cousin. And I didn't care what went on behind others' closed doors. But I also didn't believe that a gay man would ever be attracted to a straight woman, and I was naive — too naive to see why a homosexual man would marry and spend years lying to his wife, his friends, his family and himself.
...
My relationship with Chris is as good as it can possibly be, given the circumstances. We do birthday parties and some holidays together, and he and his male partner live in — and have redecorated — our former house, although he continues to hide his private life from the military.

'I married a gay man'

I think the problem with some of you is you believe gay men are gay, straight men who have had gay experiences are gay, straight men who haven't had gay experiences are secretly repressed gay, and bisexuality is impossible because there is no way a man could enjoy sex with a woman after he's experienced sex with a man.

Diary Of a Straight Girl With a Serial Gay Man Dating Problem said...

Is it wrong that we enjoy a good story about a straight girl with a serial addiction to dating gay men? Meet Crissy, 35, blogger, mother of two, loves her breasts, and from Rhode Island. She says that while she doesn't have any gay friends (sad!) she has dated plenty of us during our straight stages (aww!).
We do not enjoy her experience as to point the finger and laugh. Well, a little, because plenty of us have been in that situation, dating the opposite sex just to give things a try. Some of us have even slept with these people. Gross! (Unless you're bi; then, yahoo!) But Crissy has been. through. some. shit.

She's also quite the naive hetero girl, which is a sad species, because they want to love their gay men so.

The first ‘mo I dated was Eric. He was super cute, and he loved Madonna. He even had a license plate that said MDONNA, and his favorite thing was dressing up like her. His skin was sooooo smooth and soft, and HELLO! That boy was as gay as the day was long, but I was only 18 at the time and I tried to kiss him because I thought he liked me. After all, he asked me out on a date and was acting like a straight guy except for the smooth skin thing and the Madonna thing and as it turns out, Nooooooo. I kissed him and he ran away and never called me again. He literally ran out the door, hopped into his car and peeled out.

Then came Adam, her boyfriend of two months. And they had the S-E-X.

After the Eric situation, you’d think I’d have learned a little something, but nay, nay Toy with Mes. I’m a slow learner because a couple of years after Eric came Adam. Like Eric, Adam was a cutie patootie. He was a jewelry designer whose turn-ons included anything by Ralph Lauren, interior design, avant-garde art, and kittens. He always smelled incredible and looked as pretty as a picture in a magazine. I KNOW! I told you I’m kind of a fucktard.

And he wanted to like boobies, but it just wasn’t working. He was horrible in the boudoir, but I kept sleeping with him hoping it would get better, but it didn’t.

Do you have any idea what it’s like for a woman to have sex with a gay man? It’s not good you guys, not good at all because the whole time, they’re totally screaming inside their heads and they want to run away so badly, but they stick it out and then jump out of bed and take a shower to wash all the yucky girl cooties off of them because OH GOD IT BURNS! I cannot tell you what it does for a girl’s self-esteem when the guy you just had The Sexy Time with blows his load on your back and then jumps out of the bed trying to discreetly cover his mouth so he doesn’t throw up on his new scatter rug from Pottery Barn.

I dated that Adam guy for about two months before the sun came over the mountain and I was confronted with the truth about him. I used to hang out at his apartment, and he had this friend named Paulie. He would call every ten minutes while I was there. Literally. I thought that was a little strange until one night I was over there when Paulie stopped by, and to make a long story short, I caught a reflection of them kissing in the mirror. Needless to say, that was a big light bulb moment. I got my coat, left quietly, and sat by the phone for a week waiting for Adam to call me, but he never did. I never heard from him again, actually. I found out from a mutual friend that he now works as a lion tamer in the circus.

I shit you not.

Gay, gay, gay, gay, GAY.


On the plus side, even the worst sex with a straight guy is probably better than anything she had with one of us.

Dear Ted:
Comment on your "Girls Can Go Gay" post. If Toothy Tile, Grey Goose or any other actor/actress decided to come out of the closet, I would definitely support them. Unlike most narrow-minded individuals, I focus more on their acting rather than their orientation. Talking about the topic, I am seriously worried about Gossip Girl and 90210 using girl-on-girl action to boost ratings. Do you have any deets about what's going behind the scenes? I honestly hope the CW isn't taking advantage of guys liking les action. I only wish shows like The L Word were still on air so that the LGBT had a more positive influence on the community.
—D

Dear Advocate:
Doll, TV shows like GG will do anything for ratings—but apparently it's not working, because the ratings are dropping huge-time and the show is becoming a complete bore. The problem is that most LGBT-friendly shows are on pay channels and not prime time basic cable. 'Tho we are starting to get some good characters, like on Modern Family and Glee.

Hollywood's Gay Paradox: Ever On Screen, Ever In The Closet said...

Jim Carrey, Ewan MacGregor, Annette Bening, and Julianne Moore all play gay characters in upcoming movies. Progress or more straight actors opting for Oscar bait? And are gay actors themselves getting overlooked?

I Love You, Philip Morris and The Kids Are All Right are both said to be contributing to the normalization of gay protagonists in the movies — and not just as tragic figures, as Brokeback Mountain and Philadelphia arguably were. And yet this hasn't changed the reigning disconnect between gays and lesbians onscreen and their real-life counterparts in Hollywood.

A Single Man star Colin Firth was blunt about the dynamic last month:

"There might be risks for a gay actor coming out," he said. "The politics of that are quite complex, it seems to me. If you're known as a straight guy, playing a gay role, you get rewarded for that. If you're a gay man and you want to play a straight role, you don't get cast – and if a gay man wants to play a gay role now, you don't get cast. I think it needs to be addressed and I feel complicit in the problem. I don't mean to be. I think we should all be allowed to play whoever – but I think there are still some invisible boundaries which are still uncrossable."
As always in Hollywood's lagging progress, it's hard to know whether that disconnect comes from what America actually wants and can relate to, and what studio executives believe America wants. (Or what actors and their publicists think studio executives think America wants.)

The writer-director of I Love You, Philip Morris is quoted in the Independent saying,

"People have asked us, 'Why didn't you hire gay actors to play these roles? Well, there are no gay actors in Hollywood! None of them are out of the closet. With the exception of Ian McKellen, who is too old for the part, it's exceedingly rare to see that. And it sucks because they're actors. If a straight guy can play gay, why can't a gay guy play straight? It's just as convincing. But there's this perception in marketing, somehow the public can't overcome this idea of, 'There's a gay guy kissing that straight woman – my God!' I don't understand that."

In other words, there surely already are gay Hollywood mega-stars — it's just that they haven't come out yet. As for openly gay actors who might be overlooked (for gay or straight roles), it's difficult to come up with a list of the underrecognized and deserving — precisely because we don't know their names yet. So far, television — and especially comedy — seems to be a safer haven for openly gay entertainers.

Jezebel comment by librarianlunkhead:

"I have first hand knowledge of at least one big name who is gay and deeply closeted. They dated a good friend of mine, in utter secrecy since this person (whose gender I'm awkwardly trying hide here) was married. I even met them at my friend's home, curled up on the couch like any normal couple. It was...odd. When they stopped seeing each other (amicably) the big name made a huge deal out of how being outed would "destroy" their family (not the spouse who seemed to know the score from what I gathered). My friend had to repeatedly swear to never talk, going to far as to offer to sign papers to that effect. My friend was simply disgusted with this person at that point. "If (they) came out it would be HUGE. It would change the map of entertainment and gay rights in an instant." But my friend also understood the fear. Being out in Hollywood means your romantic lead (male/female) potential is seen (by some) to be nil. There's also foreign box office, which favors the hetero by far, at least as the studios see it.

Of course the only way to change that is for more stars to come out. And if they come out they're scared...bleh.

I see this big name's face and I just feel bad for them. They have more money than they can spend, spend their whole life traveling and doing amazing things. But if they got "caught" in one picture kissing someone they actually loved it would "ruin" them.

Sad Fucking World.

OK I'm not the poster who was asked to define, but I'll give it a try.

It's whatever deep in your heart you desire - and you know it if you really desire one sex.

Straight women and men - the opposite sex.

Homosexual women and men - the same sex.

Bi-sexual: Either

Some do go through the motions because they maybe haven't accepted their true feelings or want to deny them, but in this day and age denial is becoming more rare, I would think or at least I hope, because truly throughout the history of mankind there have always been same-sex love and there always will be. It's completely natural and normal, it's society that makes all the problems.

Fantasies? They don't mean nuthin', Alma, unless it's what you want in reality, because it's what you really desire that counts, and sometimes fantasies are never meant to become real.

Fire away!

Anonymous said...

I think it is true that people fantasize about things they would never want to engage in, e.g., rape fantasies, but I do not think people fantasize about having sex with a gender they are not attracted to. They might try to imagine it, but they're not truly going to fantasize.

hmm... said...

It's not a gay thing, it's a guy thing!

Straight Guise is about straight men who have sex with men (SMSM) who question their sexual orientation and are not gay. It is about the many reasons men engage in sexual contact with other men that are not about a homosexual identity.

Straight men cannot become gay and gay men cannot become straight. Gay men are not gay due to complicated childhood experiences such as sexual abuse or problematic parenting. Science is increasingly pointing to the evidence that gay men are born that way.

There is a significant difference between sexual identity, sexual behavior and sexual fantasy and Straight Guise helps teach what these are.

ITA. Having sex with someone of the opposite sex does not make a gay person bisexual. It's the rare gay person who has not fooled around with at least one person of the opposite sex, for whatever reason. The only one available when you're a horny teenager, curiousity, trying to pass, pressure to conform to what everyone is doing, religious guilty and trying to live as straight, internatlized homophobia......

Homebodies said...

Kristoffer Winters, a 31-year-old New Jersey native and an actor (he had a small part in The Hurt Locker) in his own right, is definitely Jeremy Renner's partner; it's just a matter of figuring out whether they're partners in love, business or both. According to a January 30, 2010, piece in the L.A. Times, the guys had owned a Hollywood Hills home together since 2008 that they refurbished and were recently able to sell for over twice what they paid (nice in this market!).

The comments on Perez Hilton over this are overwhelmingly defensive toward Renner's privacy, though I don't think the same people spend much time bitching about the privacy of every straight star on the planet, even the ones who have told people in no uncertain terms that they are not interested in talking about their love lives (a dwindling number, to be sure). I think it's mostly from people who believe they're protecting gay people (wouldn't it be more effective to lobby the producers who are supposed to be discriminating?), partly from people who think they're protecting gay people but also secretly feel like being gay is an icky secret and, in this case, partly from people who despise Perez Hilton.

I don't see the big deal in discussing this; Renner's an adult and from his interviews seems very cool about gay rumors (even kind helping to start them about himself). If he's not gay, that's gay's loss.

I understand why people stay in the closet - but more often than not their decision to do so affects other people as well in an adverse way. Lies perpetuate lies. And, of course, there are different ways of being in the closet. A glass closet, for instance, is entirely different than bearding or marrying someone under false pretense.

Anonymous said...

^^Yes. A person has to come out when it's right for them, but involving an unknowing person is wrong. Some people might not be fully aware of this at the time tho, in all fairness, especially in years past. In present times, there's really no excuse for selfishly hiding behind an unknowing woman if you are gay.

Gay seniors come out late, start second lifetime said...

...
Increased awareness and acceptance of varied sexualities and gender identities has led Americans to come out far younger, as early as middle school. A less noticed but parallel shift is happening at the other end of the age spectrum, with people in their 60s, 70s and 80s coming to terms with the truth that they are gay, lesbian, bisexual or transgender.
...
Outing yourself late in life can be complicated after having lived through times when being openly gay could get you arrested, put in an institution and given shock treatments. It's snarled in a lifetime of trudging along through society's view of normalcy and the resulting fear of being ostracized by children and grandchildren. And it's marked by a nagging doubt that all the heartache, all the potential for it to go wrong, may not be worth it with one's years numbered.
...
Still, many seniors have felt empowered by the growing presence of gays and lesbians in pop culture and some high-profile, late-in-life outings. Among the most notable, "Family Ties" star Meredith Baxter came out in December at 62; Richard Chamberlain, long the target of rumors, came out in 2003 at 69, decades after the height of his career as a TV heartthrob.

Those who've mustered the gumption to out themselves say they feel as if they've been given a second chance.

Carl Martin, 83, of Falls Church, Va., came out as gay not long after his wife died in 1997. He says he was happy in his marriage but had known of his feelings for men since he was in high school and revealed an unrequited crush to a friend. Coming out, he says, has changed him from a withdrawn, tense, reticent bystander to a vibrant social butterfly who even talks to strangers in the supermarket.

"I would describe these as the happiest years of my life," he said. "I'm free to be who I am. I was not free to be who I was before."

It is only by coming out that gay people can gain acceptance in society. As long as there are segments in society where it is not acceptable--HW, sports--gays and lesbians will continue to be treated as second-class citizens. Bearding and fake marriages magnifies the damage beecause it is pushing straight as the only acceptable way to be.

This is from the obituary over the weekend of a gay priest who was also a gay rights advocate.

I consider myself to have been most fully a Jesuit, a ‘companion of Jesus,’ when I came out publicly as a gay man, one of the social rejects of my time. It was only by our coming out that society’s negative stereotypes would be overcome and we would gain social acceptance.”


Interesting what he has to say about changes in the Catholic Church too.

For instance, a gay man or woman marries someone of the opposite sex knowing full well s/he doesn't love their spouse the way s/he should and won't be able to stay faithful...for instance, a gay person insists on staying in the closet and their partner wants to come out but stays hidden to keep from rocking the boat but is unhappy and resentful ... for instance, a gay man or woman who is a parent and stays in the closet is teaching their child not only that being gay is something to be ashamed of, but they are also teaching their child that they should always conform to society's "rules," no matter how wrong those rules are because they will not be able to keep the truth from their child forever ... and on and on...

Staying in the closet is a form of a lie and lying generally brings unhappiness and resentment to people's lives which inevitably extends to those around them. To paraphrase - No man or woman is an island, entire of itself.

There was a well-known entertainment pair at the Academy Awards who sat together, occasionally holding and laughing together. What a nice couple! Not. They actually can’t stand each other and haven’t lived together in months.

However, as one of Hollywood’s perceived stable couples, they are not yet ready to explain to the world that their long-time (by Hollywood standards) relationship is over. Certainly not in such a public setting. And if one of them had showed up solo, or with another escort, it would have brought up too many questions.

So it was easier just to go together, pretend that everything’s great, and to go their separate ways after the big event… each to a new boyfriend.

Photoshoots & Outtakes - Miscellaneous - Session #30

Ted said...

We chatted with Summit's Taylor Lautner-in-training, BooBoo Stewart—who appears as a member of the wolf pack in Eclipse—last week, and the similarities between BooBoo and T.L. are so obvious, we just had to ask if he looks to Tay for career advice.

"I get compared to him a lot," sighed the 16-year-old cutie guy. "And I think that's cool to be compared to someone who's doing so well, but I don't think I necessarily look up to him. My idols are more like Jackie Earle Haley, Heath Ledger and Mickey Rourke."

Yikes, looks like Boo has grander ambitions than simply becoming a teen heartthrob, huh? And maybe with good reason—Taylor Lautner backlash seems to be in full force right now.

Let's start with...

...what made Tay famous in the first place: Twilight.

To mucho excitement, the Eclipse trailer hit the Internet last week, and, as usual, Taylor stuck out as the weakest link among the cast. Sure, R.Pattz and K.Stew aren't quite giving it their all in the Twi franchise, but that's the problem—Taylor is, too!

And with as much effort as he's putting into the damn performance, Jacob's declaration of love to Bella comes off as—we say—more than a bit wooden. Plus, Tay has zilch in terms of onscreen chemistry with Kristen (but this isn't exactly anything new).

Could it be Tay's only saving grace comes at the end of the trailer: His abs?

Though, a way-sexy, washboard abdomen is Taylor's biggest problem. He's becoming nothing more than a pretty face—or in this case, a pretty tummy. The Daily Beast jabbed at Taylor, comparing him and his sculpted stomach to Jersey Shore's The Situation saying: "Lautner appeals primarily to 'little girls and gay men.'"

Oh really? Thought I was a gay man, too? Gimme R.Pattz, any day—I don't even care if he's combed his hair or washed his less taut tummy!

Gosh, we never expected T.L. to be the Twi kid most likely to nab an Oscar, especially with Anna Kendrick already getting a nom and Kristen and Rob developing projects that have award potential. But he seemed to have a promising career as a sort of Vin Diesel for the tween generation, right?

Poor Tay! He's trying so hard to come off as a seriously perfect stud muffin (à la his appearance at the Oscars) that it's getting annoying.

We don't hate the kid, but he's going to need a serious PR reboot if he wants to stick around for any successful flicks beyond the Twilight franchise. If T.L. takes some time to hone his acting chops instead of his six-pack and develops a less aggressive media strategy, then he's got a chance at lasting in H'wood.

And then maybe he'll finally get some respect from BooBoo.

Is Taylor Lautner Already Over?

"I'd like to be Philip Seymour Hoffman's boyfriend. I think we'd make a good couple."

If the rule in Hollywood is that the closet doors must stay resolutely closed, then Ewan McGregor has just thrown them open to the soundtrack of I Am What I Am with a rustle of pink taffeta and a whiff of Dolce & Gabbana. He's not coming out, though. Of course he's not. McGregor's not gay; he's been married – to French production designer Eve Mavrakis – for nearly 15 years and they have three daughters (Clara, 14, Esther, eight, and Jamiyan, seven, who the couple adopted from Mongolia). But that's not what we're interested in here. Today, it's all about the boys. And, as it happens, if McGregor had to choose a "bf", Mr Hoffman would be the lucky fella.

"We'd look good, we'd look slightly odd and we'd go to interesting parties and people would be interested in us," says McGregor, clearly warming to his theme. "I don't know him, but I'd like to be his boyfriend."

If the subject matter seems a little unusual, the reason is McGregor's new film, I Love You Phillip Morris. A funny, tragic, quirky movie, written and directed by Bad Santa creators Glenn Ficarra and John Requa, ILYPM is an astonishing, absurdist, gay romance.

McGregor plays the titular Phillip Morris, the lover of serial con man Steven Russell (played brilliantly by Jim Carrey). The complex plot sees the two meet in prison, before Russell, a fantasist with a sky high IQ, escapes in order to try to pass himself off as a lawyer and then start working to secure the release of Morris.
...

"In a way, Phillip in the script, was this little bird that needs protection. I liked that about him. But the job for me was to incorporate a bit of the real Phillip into that.

"He's very male. He's soft and he's gentle, but he's very male, so that's what I was trying to do. If it's a cliché then I've failed. I was very aware of trying not to play a stereotype and having talked about it that's something that Phillip gave me. It's not femininity, it's the opposite, it's actually homosexuality, it's more masculine than anything because ultimately you want to get into bed with another man."

"I had to start at the far end of a corridor. They're all fenced in with barbed wire. There were maybe 60 or 70 extras between me and where the cameras were down at the far end. I walked up there and didn't think too much about it and then I turned round and I looked and the camera crew were just so far away and I was entirely on my own up there."

He smiles. "There was a guy with a big old afro with an afro comb stuck in his hair. He was just looking at me and smiling. Then he came over to me and said, 'I think there should be a scene where I fight Jim [Carrey] for you'."

'Damn Yankees' Remake Will Address Steroids In Song, Director Reveals said...

Todd Graff also plans to switch teams in the musical revamp, starring Jake Gyllenhaal and Jim Carrey.

Back in the 1950s, it was an entertaining notion to imagine Major League Baseball as a world where record-breaking sluggers could appear overnight, selling their souls for the ability to crush a baseball in a world where those damn Yankees win every year. Now, Jim Carrey and Jake Gyllenhaal are attached to a remake of one of the all-time classic movie musicals — and although the filmmaker has big plans for an update, he's quick to point out that the plot of "Damn Yankees" is actually more plausible in today's world.

"If a character like Joe Hardy — who's the character in 'Damn Yankees' — sprung out of nowhere and was hitting 70 home runs in a season, who would not think immediately 'steroids'?" said writer/director Todd Graff, who has cast Gyllenhaal in the Tab Hunter role of a baseball fan who sells his soul to become the greatest player. "So [steroids] is not even a side character for us; it's our main character. No one is going to think, 'Oh, it's because he made a deal with the devil!' They'd think, 'He's juicing!' "

Graff recently masterminded the much-better-than-you've-heard teen rock flick "Bandslam," which hits DVD next week, and is a massive fan of two things: musicals and baseball.

"['Damn Yankees' will be] a big, movie-star movie," the Mets fan explained of the flick, remembering a time when he had to sell himself to the producers. "I said, 'Listen, there may be writer/directors out there who know more about musicals ... there may be writer/directors out there who know more about baseball, but I guarantee you, there is no writer/director out there that knows more about musicals and more about baseball and hates the Yankees as much as I do.' "

But just because he's remaking a story that ran for 1,000 performances on Broadway in 1955 and became a hit 1958 movie doesn't mean Graff won't be tweaking the "Damn Yankees" story quite a bit.

"The original was about the Washington Senators, who obviously don't exist anymore," Graff said of one major update that will undoubtedly please the fans of a Chicago team that has gone 102 years without a championship. "Now, the most obvious candidate is the Cubs.

"It is going to be set now, and my whole pitch was that it should feel like 'Jerry McGuire' with songs," Graff explained. "It should really feel like the real world of a major sports franchise and what would happen with this fantastical goofy, funny idea of a baseball fanatic who sold his soul to Jim Carrey as the devil in order to be turned into a 20-year-old Joe Mauer."

Graff is planning to hold on to only a handful of the original songs and having new ones composed — including one possibly about, yep, steroids.

"There will definitely be about five or six new songs," Graff revealed. "[We'll keep] some of the originals, but we'll jettison some of the originals, and we'll write some more new stuff."

'Damn Yankees' Remake Will Address Steroids In Song, Director Reveals said...

For fans of the original, however, don't worry: The sexy, signature tune "Whatever Lola Wants" isn't going anywhere.

"It'll be in there," he assured, saying he's currently looking to cast his Lola.

One thing that won't be in the new "Damn Yankees," however, is Bob Fosse's famed choreography. "I think it'd be a mistake [to keep that]," Graff said. "They did that in 'Chicago,' so it's been done. His stuff was brilliant, his sensibility was very hard-edged and cynical, and I think what we're going for is more of a muscular, athletic, youthful, sexy movie. We're going to be less brittle, less razzle-dazzly and aim to knock your socks off with the athleticism."

Graff is rewriting the script to get it ready for production — and to help get in the right state of mind, he's heading to a spring rite of passage shared by thousands of other die-hard fans. "I'm going to spring training; that will affect the way I write it," he said. "I'm going to Tempe to watch the Cubs spring training, hang out and talk to everybody. I'm going to soak it all up, get all the details right, the behind-the-curtain stuff, which is going to be kind of awesome."

She added, "If the former lover is now damaged goods, all the better. They'll be so grateful, you can run the show!"

Outside said...

In the new issue of Outside (April 2010), Anderson Cooper (retouched for wrinkles in a way that somehow makes him look 100 years older than he really looks) says:

"I don't believe you should be ruled by fear in anything in life. I don't like anything that scared me, I prefer to face it head-on and get over it. Anyone who says they're not scared is a fool or a liar or both. I just don't want that fear in my stomach to be a part of my life, so I work to eliminate."

So there goes the recently provided excuse that he's professionally closeted for his own safety in countries that are (even) more homophobic than the U.S.—the cover line screams, "WHY WE NEED RISK."

Can Anderson Come Outside And Play?

Actor might get Indy 500 role said...

The annual chatter about which famous faces might show up on red carpets connected to this year's Indianapolis 500 race and festivities has already begun.
Word is that Jake Gyllenhaal -- who earned an Academy Award nomination for his portrayal of the confused Jack Twist in 2005's "Brokeback Mountain" -- could be in line for a prominent position.

Promoters of Disney's "Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time" -- in which Gyllenhaal stars -- are said to be looking for a way to get the actor's face front and center at the Indy 500 or "the race of all races," as E! Online gossip columnist Ted Casablanca described it. The film opens Memorial Day weekend.

Gyllenhaal, however, won't be waving the green flag or driving the pace car, according to officials at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. They haven't said who will perform those special duties, but an announcement about the 2010 pace car driver is expected soon.

There has been some contact between Gyllenhaal's camp and the IMS, but nothing has been finalized, said Eric Powell, IMS public relations manager.

"We certainly welcome celebrities out for our event. How Mr. Gyllenhaal would fit in remains to be seen," he said.
But there's one more big role left to consider: grand marshal of the IPL 500 Festival Parade.
No word about who will fill that role has been announced, either, but folks at the 500 Festival seem eager to talk to Gyllenhaal's people.

"We have a long list of celebrities we would like to be a part of our . . . parade. Jake Gyllenhaal is definitely one of those celebrities," said Brandi Davis-Handi, spokeswoman for the 500 Festival. "While we have not been in contact with him directly, we would love to open the dialogue if he is indeed interested in coming to Indianapolis in May."

There's a recent campaign to out an actor in the media—using his name. Not cool. We won't dish details here, but if you read gossip, you've surely caught wind of who it is.

Look, Hollywood's a business and town full of liars—and not just the talents who like to often play coy or hugely misrepresent their true sexuality. Publicists, studio execs, producers, hell, even friggin' gardeners in this town tell fibs to try and help cover up the true dirt on their cash cows.

Lance Bass tried this (amusingly so) for some time before he was eventually outted. Barbara Walters cornered Ricky Martin on his bedtime action before she lived to regret it.

Hell, this gay witch-hunting's been going on for decades, Rock Hudson was tortured by the gossip rags for many years, just because he happened to prefer men. And we here at the A.T. live to dig up that deceitful kind of soil, both romantic and not. But when it involves a person's sexual preference...

We usually veil that detective work in the form of a Blind Vice, as it's not our business to out folks. That's their job—and these famous celeb jokers can do a pretty good job of it, considering the damn library of Vices we have at this point. But there has to be a line somewhere, and lately, the public and some journalists seem to think it's their decision to decide where that line begins and ends—not the celebrity.

Oh, really?

Does becoming a public figure mean you give up your right to decide when—and when not—to declare what sex turns you on? Certainly if you're engaging in antigay policy or you yourself are the fruit (like a lot of lawmakers tend to be) furthering that policy, then, yes, you've given up your right to remain mum on the subject.

But if you're just trying to, say, buy a house with your partner, does that mean your sex life automatically becomes accusatory fodder for the gossips?

We say no, not by name.

Chill out, homo hunters, you're the ones turning into the freaks, not the star who wants to remain in the closet.

Rudolph Valentino outing? said...

The entire text of the infamous "Pink Powder Puffs" editorial from Chicago Tribune, July 18, 1926

"Pink Powder Puffs"

A new public ballroom was opened on the north side a few days ago, a truely handsome place and apparently well run. The pleasant impression lasts until one steps into the men's washroom and finds there on the wall a contraption of glass tubes and levers and a slot for thre insertion of a coin. The glass tubes contain a fluffy pink solid, and beneath them one reads an amazing legend which runs something like this: "Insert coin. Hold personal puff beneath the tube. Then pull the lever."

A powder vending machine! In a men's washroom! Homo Americanus! Why didn't some one quietly drown Rudolph Guglielmo [sic], alias Valentino, years ago?

And was the pink powder machine pulled from from the wall or ignored? It was not. It was used. We personally saw two "men"-- as young lady contributors to the Voice of the people are wont to describe the breed-- step up, insert coin, hold kerchief beneath the spout, pull the lever, then take the pretty pink stuff and put it on their cheeks in front the mirrior.

Another member of this department, one of the most benevolent men on earth, burst raging into the office the other day because he had seen a young "man" combing his pomaded hair in the elevator. But we claim our pink powder story beats his all hollow.

It is time for a matriarchy if the male of the species allows such things to persist. Better a rule by masculine women than by effeminate men. Man began to slip, we are beginning to believe, when he discarded the straight razor for the safety pattern. We shall not be surprised when we hear that the safety razor has given way to the depilatory.

Who or what is to blame is what puzzles us. Is this degeneration into effeminacy a cognate reaction with pacifism to the virilities and the realities of the war? Are pink powder and parlor pinks in any way related? How does one reconcile masculine cosmetics, shieks, floppy pants, and slave bracelets with a disregard for law and an aptitude for crime more in keeping with the frontier of half a century ago than a twentieth-century metropolis?

Do women like the type of "man" who pats pink powder on his face in a public washroom and arranges his coiffure in a public elevator? Do woman at heart belong to the Wilsonian era of "I didn't Raise My Boy to Be a Soldier"? What has become of the old "caveman" line?

It is strange social phenomenon and one that is running its course not only here in america but in Europe as well. Chicago may have its powder puffs; London has its dancing men and Paris its gigolos. Down with Decatur; up with Elinor Glyn. Hollywood is the national school of masculinity. Rudy, the beautiful gardener's boy, is the prototype of the American male.

Hell's bells. Oh, sugar.

The Gossip About Jessica Simpson Wanting a Kid With Her Best Gay Ken Paves? An Obvious Publicity Stab

How to generate interest in her new VH1 skin-care-tips-from-around-the-world series The Price of Beauty, which debuted last night? Jessica Simpson found a way: Plant a story about how, if her love life doesn't work out, she and gay BFF hairstylist Ken Paves are going to have a baby together.
Clearly jealous that her equally untalented sister Ashley Simpson-Wentz already made Papa Joe a grandfather, Simpson has her own family planning plans.

But this is not a story based in reality. It is a story based in tabloid culture. Simpson, who used to be a celeb weekly cover story favorite, knows how to generate press, and this is just the soundbite to do it. We've got no idea if Paves, who we hear is likable enough, wants to be a dad, but we do know he wants to be famous and enjoy the spoils of his star clients' fame, so of course he'll play along. That he's also featured on The Price of Beauty is just more incentive.

CHARLIZE Theron has caused Jeremy Renner to split from his on-off girlfriend Jes Macallan, it has been claimed.

Jeremy, 39, apparently decided to call time on the two-year romance — which many have described as rocky — after Jes became jealous of his friendship with the South African star.

“Jeremy and Jes had some good times and last year they got a dog, but early this year they had a brief break-up,” a source told Britain’s Daily Mail newspaper.

“They got back together but have been on shaky ground because of Jeremy’s close friendship with Charlize.”

Charlize recently split from her longtime beau, Irish actor Stuart Townsend.

I LOVE all of these articles coming out testifying to Jeremy Renner's heterosexuality.

Jeremy is clearly leading a quiet life with his bf (if he's gay), so why go after him? Leave him alone.

Jeremy, 39, apparently decided to call time on the two-year romance — which many have described as rocky — after Jes became jealous of his friendship with the South African star.

Jeremy denied flirting with Jessica Simpson, will he comment this?

Return of the anti-pink powder puff man said...

James Cameron told MTV News that the names of Gyllenhaal and Damon were bandied about, but that all along he had his heart set on Sam.

"It's hard to find a guy who works for women and for men," Cameron says. "With a lot of actors, women love them, but they don't inspire men. I needed someone who could lead men into battle." Worthington, he says, "was the one who went full Shakespeare." They met, they clicked. "He impressed me as a tough guy," Cameron says. "He had a flintiness about him."

Ted doesn't name names, but everyone else does because they know who he is talking about.

Ted is full of shit and hides behind the corporate E and BI's becasue he needs a steady paycheck and can't rely on the instability of blogs paying his bills like Perez for instance( Who has a lot of side jobs). I suspect other bloggers like MK and Lainey sole income comes from their sites but i would think that the $$$ they get is enough for them to live on, I have a feeling Ted wouldn't make it.

They talk, but they don't know the names behind BVs, some people still argue about Toothy Tile's identity.

Gotta love babblers said...

Not much you can't count on in the world, except that babblers/lashers are always good for a laugh ... babblers are now all excited and claiming that FL is responsible for getting the Kirsten/Jake talk going (but they're above "gossip" and speculation don't forget!). And LG is not happy at all about the Kirsten rumors. In staying with the "Jake must not be tainted or dirtied in any way" theme, she not only claims concern over Kiki's "issues" but is also bothered by the fact that she doesn't wash her hair often enough, LOL, and, of course, "Jake can do better."

As long as he doesn't "do better" with a man - even a man who washes his hair!

Meredith Baxter says she's "no spokesperson" for gay rights, but she decided to come out because she didn't like the message she was sending by staying in the closet. "It's permission," she said. "Maybe just telling people, 'This is who I am,' maybe gives people permission to say who they are." [Radar]

Kate and Sam said...

It doesn't seem like Millionaire Matchmaker's Patti Stanger has ever met Kate Winslet, but that doesn't keep her from weighing in on Winslet's relationship with Sam Mendes. She says of Kate and Sam: "They always looked like they had more of a 'friend vibe' and not a sexual vibe. They seemed very comfortable with each other, which is great. But Kate's at that age where she needs something more than just comfort." Here's how Patti knows this: "Kate Winslet is my favorite. I love her. I understand her." [Radar Online]

Gerard said...

Gerard Butler is "just friends" with Jennifer Aniston, okay? "I went for her birthday to Mexico. We're just friends. We have a natural chemistry —you can see it in our magazine shoot [W] and the film. We have a great time together. But here's the thing — while they're accusing me of being with Jennifer, I've probably been off somewhere else doing some damage with someone else." Clever.

Oh please, Lainey wants Jake thats why she is in complete denial about other women and men except Reese, why because she knows darn well that was an arranged relationship.

Anonymous said...

What do you mean by "Lainey wants Jake"?

Anonymous said...

Lainey is just another silly babbler, pretending she believes that Jake is straight.

LOL. Well, someone else will have to do that since you wouldn't catch me posting at babblers or lashers - I'll let her figure that out on her own. But I have to say it would be funny to see the b.s. continue for a bit just to fuck with her head since she's always preaching to others about "respecting" Jake's choices.

Anne Hathaway Must Adopt This Dog Named Chuck said...

Academy Award-nominee Anne Hathaway: You've brought much joy to the world as the star of such films as The Princess Diaries and Rachel Getting Married (not so much for Valentine's Day) But now you must adopt this dog named Chuck.

People's special pets division spotted Anne Hathaway and her beau Adam Schulman at Molly's Mutts & Meows animal shelter in West Hollywood today, scoping out potential pets. While Molly's "won't confirm or comment on individual adoptions to respect the privacy of potential pet parents," People reports that "an onlooker at the park noted the pair were checking out a medium-sized terrier mix named Chuck." A visit to Molly's website shows that Anne Hathaway must adopt Chuck because Chuck is the best dog, like, ever.

Here is a video of Chuck:

He's [Ted] the one who fed that Jake/Olivia stuff to the masses

I think Ted knew Us Weekly would run the story (the magazine has a full one page saying that Jake was ‘holding hands’ with Olivia at the pre-Oscar party) and he included it first on his site to say that nothing of it was true. E!news also mentioned Ted's info that the Us Weekly story was not true.

Us got the story from Ted's column. How the hell would he know what they were going to do? It's not like the crap was on the front page.

And then after the denial on E! and her twitter, he posted more shit about Foxx introducing her to Jake, more BS.

"Us got the story from Ted's column. How the hell would he know what they were going to do? It's not like the crap was on the front page."

Ted knew because Jake's people planted it. Olivia Munn is the host of a video game channel= PoP connection. Ted's story says nothing romantic happened. If you read the Us Weekly story they were holding hands and they are already dating after they just met.

I am sure this week all the tabloids will have stories about Jake and Kirsten.

Anonymous said...

I bet there will be no stories about Jake and Kirsten - no one saw them together and Rachel & Olivia stories were based on something.

Anonymous said...

I think there will be stories about Jake and Kirsten reconnecting and they'll use anything, made up sightings and even Atticus. I am sure they'll see the potential in that story and any girl that can be linked with Jake is ok because it's 'straight' press for him.

Anonymous said...

This is Ted's orginal post based on his interns "report" who was at that party. Sure Us embellished it because he said nothing happened but there would have been no story if he didn't post it. It spread like wildfire on the net and they just picked it up and ran with it:

http://www.eonline.com/uberblog/the_awful_truth/b170547_jake_gyllenhaal_hungry_ready_mingle.html

After her people denied it to E and she even denied it on her twitter, he came back with the Jaime introduced them crap. By then the story was stale and they moved on to Jake and Rachale and now Jake and Kristen.

I don't know why you fangirls insist on defending Ted on this, he clearly posted a lie and no, he didn't no that Us was going to run it becuase they never would have if he didn't post that original piece of fanfic.

This could be. It's like a free bearding pass and he doesn't have to actually do anything, just let the story take on a life of it's own.

I think this is what Jake will do until PoP. "virtual bearding". Letting the stories run with any woman without actually doing anything.

2:18 PM: Ted said that absolutely nothing romantic happened between Jake and Olivia. US weekly said they were holding hands and are dating. Big difference.

There is no need for "Kirsten reconnecting" fiction, Rachel and Olivia are enough + Kirsten is probably dating that tall Jason Boesel guy.

I just want to say, I could look at those pics of Jake and Atticus all day....more because of Atticus, the expressions on his face when he looks at the ball, and the way he stands, his coat. He's so beautiful, cute and hilarious at the same time! I mean Jake's not bad either but damn, that dog. He's absolute perfection.

What happened to Sophia Bush, who JJ was claiming was on the invite list? I was preparing myself for another nauseating Sophin post.
