SOUNDBITES — “I spotted her in the crowd and thought she was the most beautiful woman I’d ever laid eyes on, but she came backstage with this good-looking dude and I assumed it was her boyfriend. The other problem was that I don’t speak Spanish and she had no English. But the guy did, so I just spoke to him. I was a bit nervous because of how beautiful she was. The more I drank, the more I made things worse. I was saying to him, ‘You’re a good-looking dude’ and ‘You guys are a good-looking couple’. I later found out she was on the phone to her mother the whole time saying, ‘Buble’s gay. He’s hitting on my friend.’ She couldn’t believe it.” —Michael Buble, the enormously successful cover crooner, recounting how actress girlfriend Luisana Lopilato originally thought he swung for our team

I think I’ll side with Ricky on this one. I love Bublé’s voice — it’s awfully mellow and fun — but from interviews I’ve seen of him, he’s a little too douchey for my tastes.

He’s an insecure dork – she’s a hottie (so AOL nineties!)

I knew Michael before he was “Michael Buble” and I know two things.
1) He’s not gay.
and
2) I don’t get along with douche’s and he and I hung out in Vegas chatting and talking almost the entire evening with a bunch of the cast of his show. He was a really nice guy, and I hate that people judge him based on sound bites and tiny bits of information they get from the web and interviews.

@Dizzy: Are you sure you’re not confusing him with Matt Dusk? Because Dusk is king of the douche bags.

So what’s Bubble Head saying? Oh, my girlfriend is so glad I’m not gay and so am I? I personally find him offensive and I hope a lot of other gay guys do too.

Seriously? I have a new Christmas album out called “Christmas”
He’s as straight and non-original as the white boys come…
