Nothing like a little gay subtext to get the day going…
Today’s particular example comes via Page Six’s always exciting “sightings” section: “Kevin Spacey cruising Capri with a handsome young man over the weekend.”
We wonder verb they’d use if Spacey and his PYT had been eating. Maybe “Kevin Spacey sucking down some beef with a handsome young man…?”

my friend lives in LA and she said that kevin spacey is one of those celebrities who live in the glass closet. everyone knows that he is gay, but nobody really talks about it. she was out with her friend who happens to be a young and very attractive model/aspiring actor and she said that spacey hit on him.
i mean, are we really that surprised?

I thought it was already established at around the time that “American Beauty” came out, that he was indeed a fagling.
I heard it in a news channel that he admitted to liking dick. And nothing else was said about his sexuality since.
Either he really didn’t come out, or he did and it just became such a non-issue that no one had to mention it ever again…

Spacey always denied being gay and there’s no evidence he’s lying. There are firsthand reports of his relationships with women (April Winchell’s, for one), but nothing reliable about his relatioships with men. Many “friend-of-a-friend” stories, of course, but then there are thousands of those about Tom Cruise, George Clooney, John Travolta… and even Robin Williams! It’s incredible how many nobodies claim they are in the know. It makes them feel they’re important, I guess.

Realeza – where did he deny being gay? I always assumed he was one of those not-out but not-closeted guys ( we need a new term for this. stuck on the vestibule, chilling in the foyer,something). I heard some pretty wild and specific stories while in Sydney about the filming of Superman, but yeah, it’s still stories from friends and not a first-hand fuck.
I’m all for privacy. It’s the lying that gets me.

uuuhh… knew Spacey was gay when he “discovered” Colin Farrell in some no name play in a small theater in London. I believe he insisted on meeting Farrell, recommended him for a movie (didn’t do well) and then handed over to Joel Schumacher.
In the early days, Colin was passed from homo to homo… lol. Straight men on “discover” female talent… HAHAHAHA!

“I heard some pretty wild and specific stories while in Sydney about the filming of Superman.”
Me too, on other boards. This one, for example:
From the user Morticia (April 08):

Isn’t that troubling?
But of course, since we are on a gay site, Kevin Spacey MUST be gay. Same goes for George Clooney, Jake Gyllenhaal, Keanu Reeves, etc. I think they love it: that “gay or not?” thing keeps them hot as hell in the public eye. 🙂

Can’t figure out why the story was removed from my previous post, here it is:
From the user Morticia (April 08):
“I’m not sure if it was true, but a former workmate of mine claimed her daughter was secretly dating him while he was filming in Australia. This was about 2 years ago. I never got the impression this woman would lie about something like that, but I can’t prove anything.
It was funny because she was bursting to tell someone but it was supposed to be a secret. When she told me I didn’t tell anyone. But it turns out she just couldn’t keep it in and told a few people. It just took one person to say out loud what she was told, then we realised quite a few people knew. I thought it was cute how excited she was. Apparently he bought her daughter quite a few lovely gifts and spoilt her rotten but it was very quiet as the daughter was very shy. She was apparently a big girl too, not the usual type a star goes for. They’re not together now of course, it was just a temporary thing. But of course, I can’t say it’s true, but she wasn’t the type to make things up like that.”

@Realeza: Haha! He’s DEFINITELY DEFINITELY DEFINITELY gay. A thousand times over, a milion, gazillion times gay. He’s absolutely gay. He’s gay, the fact you think he’s straight makes you a moron. He’s gay gay gay gay gay gay. Ask anyone in the London Theatre scene, he’s renowned for being gay and going with young guys. It’s his business absolutely but the fact you’re so sure makes me want to bust your bubble a bit.
