Strange bedfellows

Gay adult star Blake Mitchell responds to Anthony Scaramucci following him on Twitter

Happy almost 4th

There’s a new blowhard in town, and his name is Anthony Scaramucci.

The incoming White House Communications Director — who wasted no time in making a complete ass of himself last week in a New Yorker profile published the day before his very-pregnant wife Deidre filed for divorce — has left many scratching their heads, not only for his inane rantings (“What I’m going to do is, I will eliminate everyone in the comms team and we’ll start over”) but also for the fact that he’s following gay porn star Blake Mitchell on Twitter.

Maybe it’s because Mitchell is a five-alarm major babe alert:

And the sun shines bright on my ole Kentucky home ???

It was evidently news to Mitchell as well:

According to the Los Angeles BladeMitchell, who identifies as bisexual, says:

“I posted the screenshot that showed that he was following me. He was in a Twitter ‘Moments’ slideshow, and I clicked on his profile inside that. When I saw he was following me, my reaction was exactly what I posted online — Wait…what?”

He decided not to return the follow.

“I vote every chance I get, and I’m not afraid to ‘get political,” he tells the Blade. “But I’m at a point in my career where focusing more energy on the current political situation would detract from my abilities to climb the corporate ladder if you will.”

“I’d have to say, Anthony Scaramucci is the most surprising follower I have,” he says.

Scaramucci has yet to comment on his decision to follow Mitchell, and for some reason we don’t think he will.
