My dad's gay...stayed married to my mom for 33 years and played the hetero role.

He also told the most vile, hateful anti-gay jokes you could imagine.

Methinks he doth protest too much.

Totally gay!!!!!!!

Sista, YAY!!! I know I'm crazy, but I didn't know if I was delusional too!

Eyes Wide Shut was as sexy as an episode of Sesame Street where Bert and Ernie take bath together.

But then again Tom's never really DONE it for me, ya dig? Even in Risky Business he was cute but he never got my motor humming...I think Katie and him deserve each other. Their from the same robot factory. [beep,boop,beep]

I think TC is the same character in every film...just a different name.
I've had it on good sources he plays for the home team. Pretty reliable sources in the biz. I'm sure there is spin galore, Suri is likely his and KatE's from a petri dish, but he's gay.

2008-01-10T13:44:00.000-08:00

I once read a Mimi Rogers quote (from the year after he left her)where she said she hardly ever had sex with Tom.

I think he's conflicted and the Sci World 'helps' him keep his urges under check.

But, not always. Those times he heads up to that Penthouse :)

I bet Tom pays VERY WELL for the services he recieves from his 'friends'.

2008-01-10T13:15:00.000-08:00

Lainiekazan,
that's an interesting theory. Hmmm... running with it... maybe the Church supplied some sort of behavioural therapy which 'helps' him? All that eye-contact he goes in for, and the whole in-your-face-ness - perhaps the result of social-skill training for somebody lacking social skills due to a disorder?

Food for thought..

2008-01-10T13:06:00.000-08:00

I wonder if his current crazy has to do with stopping all his ADHD meds.

Does anyone remember the Big Red/wrestling fetish story? Can someone find a link?

2008-01-10T12:16:00.000-08:00

Judi, I used to think he could act, but now that I've seen him act on Oprah, I can't get past his weirdness. He's just too strange for me to enjoy.

2008-01-10T12:13:00.000-08:00

On enterin the seminary -- I'm convinced he has some sort of disorder (Asperger's, ADHD, autism, what?)and his intensity and lack of sense of boundaries may have been misinterpreted by the Church staff as religious fervor. Notice he wasn't there for long.

Feeling the need to clarify that I was agreeing with Twisted's statement above. Harriet, you were right on with Eyes Wide Shut - I didn't care about the characters and zzzzz... >snore<

I wonder if he made Melissa call him Half Pint.

2008-01-10T11:52:00.000-08:00

^^^Totally agree, Lipstick Mystic. If the bit about Tom getting upset about men in drag on the STAGE is true, he's got deeper issues. And, Melissa Gilbert? Wow, he was willing to bag any chick to keep those urges at bay.

2008-01-10T11:29:00.000-08:00

My friend in the hotel industry in LA frequently regales me with intimate, insider info about Tom's special penthouse apartment that he's kept for over 20 years ---where he holds all his gay parties and has his 'real" fun.

Many of my friends friends have gone to these parties, know Tommy C as the total gay boy he is, and say it's really very sad that he has to live such a divided and conflicted life. He's much happier at home with his homeboys than dealing with the PR machine and the whole fake marriage stuff. Yet he doesn't feel he can leave the Scientology world and come out, he's too deeply entrenched in two worlds known for their fakery - Hollyweird and Scientologyweird.

By the way, in LA, this knowledge about his apartment is totally common knowledge in the gay community. Some gays feel like protecting Tom for whatever reason (often because he comes down hard with the lawsuits on people who gab.) But the truth is out there.

2008-01-10T11:22:00.000-08:00

Of course they're planted quotes. There are actually pics out there of Tom as a child WEARING women's clothes for either a school play or dress up.

Btw, this of course doesn't make him gay. But it does challenge the quote that he'd be uncomfortable around drag and people dressed up.

The making out quote is also ridiculous, as Ent says. Most boys and girls experiment with their sexuality before deciding what they are. Some never do, and for some it takes years. Kissing on a couch at 19 or whatever means jack.

Of course they're planted quotes. There are actually pics out there of Tom as a child WEARING women's clothes for either a school play or dress up.

These quotes are ridiculous and just too overkill to be true. BUT, I believe Morton just wanted to concentrate on the weirdness of scientology and the gay angle might have detracted too much from that.

Also, you have to remember this is a man that claims to have been actively threatened so much he's had to disappear. He was probably very limited in what he could say.

Fucking scientros, fuck you, asshats!

I never managed to stay awake throughout Eyes Wide Shut. Tried to watch it numerous times, fell asleep every single time.

I'm not sure he's gay. But if it turns out he is, I can't say I'll be surprised.

2008-01-10T11:04:00.001-08:00

Does anyone remember how he kissed Nicole Kidman in Eyes Wide Shut? Good lord, my gay buds kissed me more passionately than that (in crowded elevators, just to be funny). And he and Nicole were married at the time.

Not to mention how quickly he sues any publication who says he's gay. Richard Gere got the gay thing all the time thanks to Sly Stallone starting the gerbil rumor and it was years before he even issued a statement about it.

DN, he doesn't set off my gaydar the way most gays do either, but that's because I think he's so entrenched in Scientology that he's buried the whole thing.

2008-01-10T11:04:00.000-08:00

saw the rumor today that suri's daddy is actually tom's cousin william mapother (the one who was the creepy guy on lost).

i think the rumors persist because didn't mimi rogers say tom was sterile and couldn't have kids?

could he have them if they were artificially created in a lab?

but, agreed, suri looks for more like tom than l. ron hubbard.

2008-01-10T10:54:00.000-08:00

so blatantly heterosexual that he all but entered the Priesthood and shunned sex for the rest of his life?

ya sorry i ain't buying it. Tom spends more time/money trying to prove he likes the cat than actually doing it.

i am100% in agreement with El on the whole women in drag thing, a serious actor wouldn't be all up in arms about it when half of the actors i know in theatre etc. ARE gay.

Tracee, I found a link to the National Enquirer blurb you were talking about in another thread yesterday. And I DO remember this.

2008-01-10T10:37:00.000-08:00

I knew someone years ago who worked as a bodyguard for T.C while he was filming 'Days of Thunder'. I asked about the gay rumours, obviously, and I was told that Tom was 'blatantly heterosexual', in that he was with a few women during filming, before his relationship with Nicole took shape. There were no obvious signs of homosexual tendencies, and there was no evidence of even bi-sexual curiosity. Needless to say, I was disappointed and disillusioned by this, but the person I knew had no reason to lie about it, that I know of.

Also, Suri looks so much like Tom that I find it incredible that people actually believe her paternity should be questioned. All you have to do is look at her to know who her father is.

I'm not a T.C fan, and have always found him to be annoying, and now I'm convinced he's a complete weirdo as well, but gay and a fake daddy? I don't buy it.

Love this site. Been lurking for a while and for some reason had to comment today.
