God, these people are so fucked up. Calvin’s a perv.
justiceontherocks
He didn’t even get an A-list porn star.
Soupy
He’s the gay Hugh Hefner.
Sug Night
Love the photo….his great, great grandson is kind of hot.
jack
If the party is so exclusive – “It will be the hottest ticket for New York’s gay and fashion elite.” – why are you even mentioning it to the general public here?
gregger
Calvin used to be somewhat attractive, now he looks like a bad version of Laurie from the RHOOC.
Benjamin
I don’t understand the point of this non-story story. I would expect a Calvin Klein party to be attended by the gay and fashion elite. It would be a news item if it WEREN’T.
Bert
It’s creepy that they both have the same hair cut and are wearing the same shirt. Too weird. Too Woody Allen/Soon-yi

@dvlaries: Very funny! Loved it!

How sad that he is that old and still worrying about things like having the “Elite” there. Grow up Cal.
As for his “Boyfriend” I see the jump from porn to prostitution wasn’t a large one.
Bummer
Hi guys! Sorry, for a random post, but I just wanted to as 1 question.
Is there a nice word in English that would mean the same as: “dehomosexualization”/”dequeerization”, as in e.g. “Dehomosexualization of a novel”?
Thanks in advance! 🙂
ron
@Bummer: “Censorship”
Frank
Bring on the Viagra!
Bummer
@@ron: Thx, but I would like to be more…specific. 😉
Dirk Dasteredly
people that are actually elite don’t have to label themselves as such and announce the fact constantly.
Davey Wavey's Vagina Monologue
Aww Father Time and Baby New Year.
I’m afraid little Nicky is too young for a birthday party at this age though. He won’t even know where he is. Waste of an “elite” invitation.
Mrs Patrick Campbell
We LOVE the mother & daughter outfits!
David
Since when has being a prostitute, been ‘elite’?
One of the CA 36,000
@Mrs Patrick Campbell: It DOES seem a bit “Mommie Dearest”, doesn’t it?
Eeeeeewwwww.
And, might I add:
Eeeeeewwwww.
Matthew Sommerville
These people are gross. Why they even bother with “boyfriends” is beyond me – it’s not like the relationship is based on love, commitment or anything meaningful.
justiceontherocks
@Matthew Sommerville: Of course it’s based on love: the ho loves Calvin’s money.
David
Calvin Klein (68) is deeply in love with Nick Gruber (21).
How very Anna-Nicole Smith.
jak
Why the ageist bile? They look like they’re having fun with each other, the rest is nobody’s business.
alan brickman
Good for him..stop being so jealous..bring back Morning Goods!!
alan brickman
BRING BACK MORNING GOODS!!
Scott
Ew! :-/
Andrew
To @ JAK: I am sure a lot of people said that the Portuguese bloke that was murdered last week by his much younger lover were just having fun and look how that ended.
thematics
If youre going to get a pornstar boyfriend, you really should get one who at least was a really good actor, because Gruber isnt going to be able to act like he’s actually interested in “wearing” Calvin Klein
(the guy not the clothes!!)
*B*A*N* ALAN BRICKMAN!…he’s a foolish moronic troll. Writes the same two sentences over and over and over and over. Don’t be jealous.
ewe
Do ya think he is trying to recapture his youth? I would say so. Mirror mirror, turn back the clock for me, says Calvin.
GregorVonK
Na und???
Alan
The comments were by far the best part of this article
Sam
Calvin doesn’t have enough $$$ for me to look at those sagging balls- just sayin’.
He wasn’t even cute when he WAS young-even with the nose job and skin peel, yuk.
Giovanni
I promise you that Calvin had nothing to do with the wording on that invite. Homeboy has not spent his entire life cultivating exclusivity only to come out in such spectacularly tacky fashion.
Adam
I would guess that if most of you naysayers commenting could afford the company of someone 1/3 your age, you’d be doing the same thing that Sir Calvin is doing with this kid. Just admit it.
Jeffree
@Adam: Someone half my age wouldn’t pass legal consent laws! “Affording company” is a business arrangement, not a relationship I’d seek, but I can’t judge anyone who wants to do that.
Klein’s companion is younger than his daughter, btw.
I still have to wonder what they talk about at the breakfast table. THAT would make a reality show I might want to watch !
Adam
@Jeffree: I meant my comment assuming you’re Klein’s age, not at your current age.
And I can picture tense chit chat at the breakfast table as both try to reveal as little as possible about the affairs they both know they’re both having.
Silver
With all the money he has he couldn’t afford a cuter porn star than that?
Jeffree
@Adam: You’re right about the tense chit chat — it’s be the kind of relationship where you agree NOT to talk about what/ who you’re doing on the side. (Been there myself!) and I did understand your assumption about the age.
It’d be impossible for me to guess what I would do at Calvin’s age for company, not to mention what I will be doing or how I will be different even 10 years from now.
Any two adults who can make a relationship work have my admiration, no matter their differences in background, social status, occupation, whatever!
@Silver: I think Klein’s companion is plenty cute…but hey, we all like different types.
James
@Jeffree,
B*tch, please…….the only thing holding these two guys together is Calvin Klein’s massive bank account.
If Calvin Klein lost his whole fortune tomorrow, his 21 year old boyfriend, Nick Gruber, would be back working at the local Abercrombie & Fitch tomorrow.
I hope Nick Gruber has a backup plan for his life after Calvin Klein decides to upgrade to an even cuter & younger 18 year old boyfriend.
Otherwise his next “Gay Elite” birthday party won’t be thrown at a trendy Manhattan Asian-fusion restaurant. It will be take-out from the local Panda Express.
Jeffree
@James (39): You lost me at B*TCH but won me back with the “cuter” and “younger” model! My experience is that these winter/ spring couples (or whatever they’re called” almost always end by that ‘replacement model’.
Promis.e me that when I come back in 20+ years to Queerty at 48 gloating over my new 27 y/o BF, that you’ll remind me of that !
SteveC
I hope Gruber is saving some of the money he is being paid, for being Calvin Klein’s escort. It would be sad to see him working in McDonalds.
My advice to Gruber is to get as much money and gifts and jewellry as he possibly can. He’s fully entitled to them.
(Oh – he should also sleep with as many Calvin Klein modedls as he can. They won’t pay cash but they won’t sag like Calvin – unless he’s had a ball-lift along with his horrific facelift).
paul
ok guys calm it down. If old straight rich guys can do this, so can we can. Less of the negativity. Let them both have their fun it works for both of them. I actually think it’s kind of genius that he is finally open about his sexuality. Young straight women hang off rich old guys all the time. I hope i have a pretty young thing hanging off my arm when im 68…on my meagre salary the only thing hanging off my arm is likely to be the nurse dragging me down to dinner in the old gay peoples home.
SteveC
But people laugh at gravedodging old guys who are dating far younger women also. Or was Anna-Nicole Smith and her husband true love?
I’m not condemning Calvin Klein for hiring a young hooker be his boyfriend.
I’m not condemning the young hooker for landing such a well paid job.
But that doesn’t mean we all shouldn’t have a good laugh at their expense.
adman
@Bummer: Revisionism.
GeriHew
@Soupy: Calvin Klein is bisexual. And funnily enough so is Hugh Hefner 🙂

Mrs Patrick Campbell
Bisexual = likes both men & boys!
the crustybastard
@alan brickman:
1. STFU and quit threadjacking.
2. Start your own blog.
3. Post pictures of hot guys.
But please, pretty please, with sugar on top: at least get as far as #1.
La Empress
Dear Sweet Cal,
Here’s my response to your “big ticket”. Enjoy the flavor of the month.
Rick Gold
Rock on leathery one!
Jeffree
@The CrustyBastard: (48): Thanks for writing that. The day that Qty got rid of the thumbs.down option was alan (a.k.a. aalen) brickman’s happiest day ever.
@alan brickman: your whining grew tiresome months ago. Go create your own site where you can rant all you like. Thank you!
Dave
Klein and his adult male partner are both consenting adults.
What’s the big deal?
Just login to ANY bisexual/gay male site like Craigslist, manhunt, or gay.com and you’ll see tons of ads and profiles of older bisexual and gay men looking for younger adult men, or younger adult bisexual and gay men looking for older bisexual/gay men.
The fact is that some older bisexual and gay men are attracted to younger adult men. It’s like this with straight men and women too just look at Demi Moore and Ashton Kutcher.
Klein has been out as bisexual since the 70s so he’s not just finally coming out.
I don’t find either of them to be attractive personally as they’re both way too twinky or in the case of CK ex twinky but it’s their choice to be together.
As for the whole “fashion/gay elite” thing, who do you think goes to and attends such events?
I’m your average everday guy and I don’t have any desire to go to an event like that but I have very rich distant cousins who probably would like it.
I know ex twinks who would brag about how they went to an event hosted by a certain very rich East Coast family and it’s just like this.
TheInsider
Oh Calvin Calvin Calvin, you are a dirty, delusional, ugly, old man.
GeriHew
@TheInsider: With all his money Calvin should give a shit what you think?
Lee
@GeriHew: With all the $$$ Klein makes for making bland preppy clothes, he can pay someone else to think for him, and hopefully attract more fans who can think of something wittier to say in response to someone pointing out how delusional and dirty he is…
GeriHew
@Lee: I’m not a Calvin Klein fan, just a realist.
