Colton Haynes was feeling especially rosy on Instagram over the weekend.
The 30-year-old actor shared a picture of himself with his 6.7 million followers. In it, he is lying in repose with a giant blooming rose on his forehead along with the caption: “La vie en rose.”
Some wondered if perhaps it might be a reference to Colton’s ex, celebrity florist Jeff Leatham.
“The rose from Jeff?” one person asked.
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.
The couple was married last October but filed for divorce just six months later, citing “irreconcilable differences.” Then last month, Gus Kenworthy, who is a close friend of Colton’s, told US Weekly that the guys were “working on things.”

“[Colton] told me that they’re working on things,” Gus said, adding: “I think that they’re in a good place. I don’t know if they’re back together or if they’re not going to be together, but I think that they’re in a good place.”
More likely, it’s a reference to the song “La Vie En Rose” off the soundtrack of A Star Is Born, which was released last week. But, hey, we’re allowed to dream, right? We just want to see Colton and Jeff live happily ever after!

Sorry, “Le Vie en Rose”… pales when you compare it to the Grace Jones version.

Or Edith Piaf’s

Edith Piaf made “the life of a rose” into a major hit. Grace covered it and improved on it. It is one of my favorite songs and the Grace Jones version is great listening during sex!

In Venice CA there used to be an apartment building by the beach called the “La Vie Apartments”. It was, of course, located on Rose St.; thus, “La Vie on Rose”. True story.

OH BOY another post about Colton Haynes! I never would have imagined that queerty of all places would write about his instagram posts.
I used to be into him, but now I just roll my eyes whenever I see a queerty non-story about him.

I know what you mean, I used to like him and I even follow him on Instagram. But I hear more about him here than I do there and now I’m sick of him
ElPillo
Queerty, you are pushing me to dislike the guy—who is coming across as crying for attention
redzebra1
Word, getting sick of him! He’s done NOTHING for us! Got a HRW award without DOING ANYTHING and given red-carpet treatment? Come on! He don’t deserve it!

Oh gee yet one more worthless post about Colton. Only this one is literally about nothing, who at queerty has a hardon for Colton that they have to post everything the bastard does. Do you troll his instagram just post whatever, this post is about him and a damn flower, I mean seriously? I’m just waiting for the post that says “Colton is constipated and going to Walgreens for enemas”……
Vince
Yes. They have a an alert set up anytime Colton posts anything on his Instagram. Lazy journalism but oh well.
Terrycloth
Colton again ? One word. Yawn…
Kieran
All the people complaining about “Colton again” clicked on a story about him.
Greg
Well I wanted to see his blooming rosebud and I’m not talking about that flower. Last time it was he was almost naked swinging like Tarzan.

That’s one good BINGO, Kieran.

Love a nice juicy rosebud………

“Rosebuds” are women stuff. Gay guys like “shrimps” or “donuts”.

Came on here after a few months. Depressed by the title of this post. Is it meant to be funny? Gay culture is such trash. Never ends. No wonder most of us go elsewhere for info.
