Gay “celebrity” Reichen must be nursing a broken heart. Or feeding a grudge.
The former Amazing Race contestant and Lance Bass boyfriend recently updated his MySpace page and declared himself “single,” which must mean he and lookalike lover Ryan Barry have called it quits.
Reichen’s obviously got some beef with the beefcake boy toy, for his headline reads “You Shady Lying Sack of Shit. You’re BEYOND Gross. What an Idiot I Have Been!” Well, we could have told you that!
The fuming flamer also offered some Hollywood-centric love tips:
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.
Never believe them when they say they’re in love with you.
Never believe them when they tell you where their heart is.
Never believe them when they say they’re only going to sleep with you, especially when there is a social climbing opportunity in front of them.
Never underestimate their need for celebrity, money, and fame.
Never believe you can fix it by being true or nice.
Never EVER believe love is more important to them than anything Hollywood.
This isn’t the first time Reichen’s taken to the internet to offer a virtual rant. Remember his bat-shit crazy remarks against LA Rag Mag? That was wild!
And, with regard to the dating tips, we agree with you Reichen, but think they can be applied across the States. Boys are bad news. That’s why we’re going to become lesbians!
faghag
Wharta fucking hypocrite.
Didn’t he cheat on Lance when they were dating?
This bitch had it coming, what a waste of oxygen.
He’s gross.

Hum…I never believed my friend but apparently there is such as thing as Karma.
Michael Bedwell
As for the former partner with whom Lehmkuhl won “The Amazing Race”:
Chip Arndt has gone on to become a successful entrepreneur and highly respected LGBT activist. He’s a frequent speaker on behalf of LGBT youth and has helped raise thousands of dollars to fight AIDS, participating again this year in AIDS rides for groups in New York City and Miami.
He is a cofounder of the Gay American Heroes Foundation which is working to create a traveling exhibit to educate the public about LGBT hate crimes: gayamericanheroes.com
As the President of Miami’s LGBT Democratic caucus, Freedom Democrats, he is currently focusing on passing domestic partners legislation there.
Arndt is an official Obama delegate to the Democratic National Convention.
Rob Moore
If there is such a thing as karma, we’re all gonna pay. I cheated but didn’t notice the awful distress it caused until I stopped cheating for one man and was cheated on in turn. At first, I was in a rage. After a while, I had an epiphany about what I had done to others. My advice to restless friends became “don’t look for a new relationship until you have ended the current relationship with some semblance of backbone.” The second piece of advice I give is “don’t be a complete idiot and take the cheating bastard back if he comes sniffing around.”
Qjersey
Over 25 and Ranting about your break-up on MySpace?
It’s called “what goes around comes around” moron.
If only his package was as big as his ego.
Nothing worse than a wronged bitter bottom.
Darth Paul
He’s an as$hole first and a retard second for airing his wholly predictable BS online. Very 10th grade, there.
Z.
I would do both!

I am very proud of Arndt than Reichen. I feel bad for Arndt because I knew he was in love with him for long time but that crap Reichen,who cares about him.
Nick
How can Chip, who lives in Florida, be an Obama delegate?
michael
Sounds like he was ranting at the mirror. What a narcissist,
Michael Bedwell
The delegate selection within the Florida Democratic Party has continued with the expectation that there will be some kind of resolution by convention time.
“On the still-unresolved topic of counting delegates from Michigan and Florida, states that defied DNC plans and moved their primaries ahead of their scheduled dates, [DNC Chairman Howard] Dean said that he’s determined to see those delegates seated in some way.” – MSNBC.com on Dean’s Sunday appearance on “Meet the Press.”
marcus
I don’t get it. He looks like a second rate Ken doll and he’s fat. He just is not sexy. I could go to any bar anywhere, anytime and find at least 5 guys who are hotter than he is, even at his age. So why is he so big in the gay world? Are we this desperate for celebrity and role models?
M Shane
I’m in total agreement with your last insight, Andrew: hard way to learn an easy lesson about marriage. Women have been using it for ages(call me a myogynist!) On the bright side, Reichen should be able to get laid yet : a good fuck cures a thousand ills(Shaspeare?) But become a lesbian? Think about it please.That might take more changes than you can handle.
Also, about the only way they look alike is both being males. I think.
John
Marcus:
Yep!
hisurfer
Guys, “fat” and “bottom” really shouldn’t be insults – although I suspect, Marcus, that you are using a different and unique definition of the word “fat.” I’m leaner than average, but still have five times the body fat of either of those guys.
Cambel
Ok, I have two comments.
1. I have a feeling Lance Bass could have written the exact same complaints about Reichen.
2. You were publicly ranting about your breakup on MySpace?!?! Calling somebody names like a 7th grade school girl on a sugar high? You sir are pathetic.
Micah
Sounds like there’s some haters out there. It’s obvious the guy is in pain and frustrated enough to need to speak out. Just because he’s a public figure, it doesn’t mean he’s not human with real emotions. Haven’t we all used our myspaces to communicate our feelings?
I’ve seen Ryan all over WEHO lately with anyone but Reichen. He’s probably on the fame train, got caught cheating, and now Reichen’s hurt.
I saw Chip, Reichen and Ryan together a couple months ago at a benefit, and seemed like Chip and Reichen were good friends. They were all very nice to anyone who came up to them.
We can’t judge him without knowing him – and seems to me that he took the high road and didn’t say anything when Lance ragged him all over the press. No one knows what happens between 2 people – and I wish I could buy the poor guy a drink. Leave the poor guy alone – we’ve ALL Been there.
Mick
*Sings* … what goes around goes around goes around goes around comes back around….yea…
That’s karma, Reichen. Eat it, bitch.
steve
they look like they have the combined iq of a snow pea

Actually, Micah, there were stories of Mr. Lehmkuhl’s talk of legal action against Mr. Bass right here on Rue de Queerty for saying Mr. Lehmkuhl cheated on him and for comments such as these to “GQ” magazine: “I thought, ‘Why does everyone hate him?†At the end, I was like, ‘Ok, everyone was right.’â€
queerty.com/reichen-breaks-out-lawyers-after-bass-bash-20071109/
He eventually confirmed on his myspace page [since removed we believe as all his hissy fits eventually are] that a letter from his attorney had been sent to Mr. Bass, but “No one is suing anyone. … It is my wish that my ex-relationship discontinue referring to me in the media in association with expressing his personal feelings about me, that he discontinue attacking my current relationship(s) in the print-media and, more than anything, that all events, including the drama surrounding them, from that year of my life, simply go away.â€
His widely broadcast threat to suit Perez evaporated, too, but not before it was immortalized on YouTube—along with his undying devotion to Mr. Bass apparently a mere few hours before what he later described as an “interaction†of ““brief and of bad judgment.â€
youtube.com/watch?v=ZtaP53seOnE
Some time after, Mr. Lehmkuhl took his clothes off on camera yet again and, using all the acting training he’s paid for and his dedication to being a role model for young gays, pretended to give a guy on “Dante’s Cove” a blow job.
As for the public civility you observed between Mr. Lehmkuhl, Mr. Lehmkuhl Fool #1, and Mr. Lehmkuhl Fool # Fill-In-The-Blank [between Chip, the unidentified straight woman, Charlie, Louis, and Lance it’s hard to keep track without an Excel spreadsheet]—what did you expect Mr. Arndt to do while trying to raise money for whatever to scream at his partner of nearly five years, “You two-timing, gold digging meat puppet media whore! Payback is acoming!”?
Charley
What’s happened to Reichen’s jewelry business ? Did he sell one piece ? I was on a plane to somewhere recently and saw his stuff advertised.
Tim
Hi jewelery is at Fred Segal and, from his Myspace, just got to Saks Fifth Avenue so yeah I would guess he sold some pieces. Leland you’re a freak. You follow Reichen that closely? I WONDER who you REALLY are! Ha
Fred
I’ve really got to laugh. Not at Reichen, but at all the folks acting so superior.
I’m sure in the midst of a break up, none of you have done things you’ve regretted later. It must be amazing being so ‘perfect’.
Fred
Leland…WOW… after your oh so passionate post earlier, i got to wondering how someone could have SO much info at there fingertips?!? Hey guys….if anyone out there wants some TRULY interesting reading…google the name “Leland Frances.” I agree 100% with Tim…Leland, YOU ARE A FUCKIN FREAK DUDE! Everything thing that come up on your google search is nothing but you blogging ALL over the internet on every blog that has carried a story about REICHEN!! you really have to get out a little more, it is not healthy for you to have so much hatred for someone i doubt you even know! i mean, come on.. links to blogs from months ago and YouTube clips….are you kidding me with this!?!?!? you talk about Reichen threatening legal action against Lance…if I were Reichen, I would be more scared about crack heads like you!! Seriously, go out and find a boyfriend…go get laid….go out and buy a dog! Please for the love of god, find something better to do with your time then making yourself look like a douce bag all over the internet, talking about someone that you obviously think WAY TOO MUCH ABOUT!!!! the moral of my story…GET A FUCKIN LIFE MAN!
Bob
You know, it’s comments like “Reichen is fat” that make me despise our “community” even more. No wonder half the straight world hates us when we’re such insufferable assholes
michael
Bob, I doubt that you despise “our community” because somebody said Reichen is fat. Do you think that all women despise all women
because they do exactly the same thing? Scrutinize each other? You hate “our community” because you hate the mirror you see. Once you learn to like yourself you won’t have such a strong reaction to such comments. And, for someone who holds himself up as a “model” and likes to parade around with his clothes off in the media, he’s fat. He is a nice looking guy, but nothing special.
Lorenzo
I’m not surprised Reichen couldn’t take Ryan anymore – because Ryan used my friend Carlos probably the exact same way he used Reichen.
Everyone in our small LA community knows Ryan’s always left his boyfriends as soon as they expect them to pay a bill or pick up a check. He’s a user. He left Carlos for another guy with more money and thought he could help him with his “modeling” career – and he probably did the same thing to Reichen.
Ryan was a nobody until he met Reichen. Who ever heard of the guy? Who’s the armani underwear model now? Looks to me he got exactly what he wanted and dumped him for someone who’s dumb enough to pay for fuck the armani model.
And Dude – anyone who’s actually calling Reichen fat – PLEASE tell me where to see a picture of you because that’s a joke. I agree with Bob – we fags are just dicks to one another.
Mr C
Listen clearly Reichen
YOU’RE A CLEAR OPPORTUNIST!
All these stunts keeps his cash flowing.
Since the Amazing Race this Butch queen must have already had 5 partners…….
DAMN……..Is it them, or HIM?
nikko
MARCUS, MICHAEL, how can anyone seriously think REICHEN is fat and just average looking??!! Are you serious? Seriously, just keep your glib, lying, worthless comments to yourself. That kind of vicious sharp gay tongue is truly shameful and harms everyone.
Micah
Seriously, MR C – what’s your problem? You don’t even know this guy – and you’re judging him for WORKING?
People need to get over this amazing race shit – it’s kinda scary – wasn’t it like 10 years ago? Don’t some of us go through 5 guys monthly? I mean – if he’s a serial monogamist, good for him. But it’s not anyones place to judge him for taking career oppotunities given to him, and trying to be happy with one person.
Lorenzo seems to know Ryan directly, and from how angry Reichen was to say that, I’m going to assume that he did get used. Where is he? Just leave him alone like you’d like to be left alone after a bad breakup.
I agree with Nikko – all you of guys are making your nasty Perez Hilton style comments, coming off as bitchy queens – it truly is shameful because if I read this stuff about myself or any of my friends, and I knew it wasn’t true,there’s no way to win. You really are damned if you do, damned if you don’t.
marcus
Hey no. 29 Its a free country, and free speech. So hear this free speech, take your opinion of my comments and shove them as far up your ass (if theres any room left up there to shove anything else). I think he is fat, I think he is average looking.
dean
I have a dream. I have a dream that one day a man will not be judged by the definition of his abs but by the content of his character. I am rolling on the floor, somebody calls him fat and the queens come out swinging. Its amazing that there is an interview with Allen Roskoff, someone who has spent a lifetime doing work of substance and real importance for the gay community and there are only 3 comments about it. But a post about some gay guy who’s main contribution to the world is taking his shirt off gets 10 times the commentary. Its hilarious that we get far more upset about calling someone fat than we do about the things that are really harming us.
walter17
boo-hoo. at least he had a relationship. i’m 37, overweight and single. unless i lose this weight i’m looking to be single for the rest of my life. i haven’t had a relationship in 7 years. boo-hoo.
love is an emotion that causes jealousy and sadness.
M Shane
The heart of the beast is that stange belief that “love” is a feeling that has something to do with how you look. As long as you or anyonethinhks along those lines there will be lots odf saddness.” Love” if it depends on how you look has more to do with sex.
I would gibve five good friends before I would want a partner. Sex is boribng after a whilew no matter how “hot “the people are that you meet. A man with friends, who does and is the kind of perso who deserves real friends is blessed.
nikko
Hey Marcus no.31, I’m not talking about free speech idiot, and you know it…I’m talking about your blind, erroneous statement that you think Reichen is fat and average looking. In other words, open your eyes and judge appropriately, and don’t lash back stupidly because your stupid and erroneous opinion gets countered….now you can take your head out of your ass….
jonny
Ryan never dated a Carlos.
jonny
Looks like Reichen recanted his remarks and apologised on his MySpace.
dean
Nikko, so if someone disagrees on your standard of beauty then its okay for you to hurl insults at them? I too do not find this guy to be all that great. In fact the best analogy I have heard is that he is a second rate Ken doll. You are a really insecure individual to lash out at people who have different opinions than you do. Maybe you should learn to live and let live, I mean Jesus, your blowing a gasket cause someone thinks someone is fat?
Dubwise
Nikko=Troll.
NIKKO loves strawman arguments and hurling insults at those he doesnt agree with….but me…i love troll baiting.
check his comments on grand theft auto thread…the scott heim thread.
nikko
I’m not the one who throws the insults, buds, you(plural) are. I just tell the truth.
Carlos
Lorenzo dude, get a fucking life! I’m not broken and Ryan was never my boyfriend. We hung out a few times in Laguna but that’s all. Nothing serious. We still talk and love each other like brothers. I know for a fact that he was never boyfriends with Tim C either. We both first met Tim out at the Boom one night!
If you don’t know about Kevin and Josh — his ACTUAL ex-boyfriends, then you don’t know Ryan. Get your fucking facts straight and stop spreading your BULLSHIT gossip lies on the internet! CUNT.
Lorenzo is a Complete IDIOT!
Carlos works for DirecTV and Tim is a UPS driver! How did Ryan use either for wealth or modeling?! LMAO
HUH?!
what exactly would ryan use reichen for? reichen doesn’t have wealth OR fame. he has a tainted image and an infamous persona in gay gossip circles only. REICHEN DOES SOFTCORE PORN NOW! ask your moms if they know who reichen is?! 1 out of 10 MIGHT vaguely recall him as the reality guy who cheated on lance bass. ryan comes from a millionaire family in laguna beach. reichen (whose birth name is richard) comes from an ohio trailer park. as far as modeling goes, ryan’s gotten exposure via photographer adam bouska because ryan is hot. he’s a normal guy who lives in the OC away from Hollywood. if anything, reichen is using ryan and drove away the best thing that ever happened to him.
anthony
What an embarrassment to the gay community. From role-model to immature whore. Chip, on the other hand, he’s a MAN !!! He should count his blessings every day and stay far away from this user and loser.
darkanser
I met Reichen years ago. I must say he had wonderful skin back then….;-)
gary69mike
When I watched (hate to admit this) New York A List on Logo, I thought Reichen was the biggest whining baby that ever lived. Ugh… Shut up! He held his “celebrity” over Rodiney Santiago’s head constantly and made him feel like a piece of crap. Reichen is one of those guys who is hot until he opens his mouth, then he’s a complete turn off. I think his 15 minutes of fame is just about over… thank God!
gary69mike
oh… and loved it when Austin Armacost outed Reichen as NOT being well endowed. Poor little Reichen was PISSED! Hahahahahaha!!!!
glennr
I am really going to lose sleep on this one.
yaletownman
Sounds like he has been dating himself. So many folks have zero self awareness.
