Jeremy Renner has long been the subject of gay rumors—and not just because he teamed up with Tom Cruise in the last Mission Impossible and is stepping into Matt Damon’s shoes in The Bourne Legacy.
We couldn’t get a read on the 41-year-old actor when he appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live! on Tuesday, but he did share a rather intriguing story about accidentally taking a Viagra instead of Ambien on a long flight from L.A. to London.
Turns out Renner has trouble distinguishing a “V” from an “A.” (A problem we’ve personally never encountered.)
The little blue pill, which came from a “friend” (of course), caused some in constriction in the pants area, but the other passengers didn’t seem to notice. The on-board crew was different matter, though: ‘The flight attendants were sort of in on the joke,” Renner told Kimmel. “They were like, “Can we get you anything, Mr. Renner?'”
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
We wouldn’t have bothered with such formalities—we would’ve been inflating Renner’s personal flotation device before he could hit the call button.

That story is so pathetic it makes my eye balls roll out of my head.

Look how tiny he is compared to Kimmel! I had no idea he was a little guy. How is it he landed in the action movie genre?

Tom Cruise is tiny also. So is Jean Claude Van Damme. Actually it’s the norm.

Ambian comes in white and pink. Viagra is blue. Having trouble distinguishing between V and A is clearly not his only problem. Apparently is is color blind too.

Haha! Accidently took it, from his own pills, which means he had Viagra too. “A friend” lmao

Afterward, the airline had to charge him for additional unchecked baggage!

Did he specifically say female flight attendants?
Would it be so difficult for him to not say anything at all?

Did he specifically say female flight attendants? I could not be bothered to watch the interview.
Would it be so difficult for him to not say anything at all?

He looks like a well-dressed FTM. No?

I just love these stories that their publicists hand them before they go on these shows. (Yawn)
Is this one officially out yet? Or is he still pretending that the man he has lived with for a decade is just a “Buddy” that he flips houses with and he’s too busy to date.

Why on earth would he need viagra in the first place? Is he ill?
RJ
Cam-Which male celebrities/actors do the whole “I live with a buddy and we flip houses!” BS?

The distinct shape and color of the Viagra should be his first clues. Also, doesn’t the effect of Viagra only kick in if there is manual stimulation to the peen? Tried it a few times, didn’t like the sinus irritation and brief vision impairment, and they did work as intended but only while the peen was occupied – he is talking smack claiming his peen stood at full mast by itself – unless he was repeatedly adjusting and touching his peen during the flight LoL
