Gossip Queen Blind Item

This rising Oscar nominated actor is quite offbeat. His reps are scared that if his relationships with men get out it will be explosive.

James Franco - has he been nominated yet?

Jeremy Renner. Nominated for the Hurt Locker last year, hence 'explosive'.

IndigoBlue said...

Seriously, why does anyone give a fuck about being gay or not gay anymore???? Do you really think it will hurt or help your career one way or another??

timebob said...

Long rumoured that Jeremy Renner is gay and closeted. If other rumors (fuled by him) that he is in line to take over the Mission Impossible franchise. Being outed as gay could really hurt him with the male straight audience.

aren't they all gay...and does it matter.

Borg Queen said...

I think it is Jeremy Renner which is a shame because he is an amazing actor. Who cares who he sleeps with? Its a shame that he has to keep his private life a secret to keep a job. GOod luck

Karmen said...

Why are all of the clues in these blinds "explosive"? Same thing with the late night blind a few nights ago.

MISCH said...

and Tom Cruise is straight....this is so insane....who cares....

kcqueen said...

Thank God no one is guessing Ryan Gosling! I lurve him.

kissit said...

Jeremy Renner lives with his boyfriend. They own the house together. fact

Elle said...

@IndigoBlue - Ditto. Seriously, who gives a shit?

Neil Patrick Harris is a married, openly gay man who plays a womanizer on the TV show How I Met Your Mother and honestly, it has never once crossed my mind that he is gay - because he is a great actor and owns the part. It riles me so much that men/women are forced to live these closeted lives and I for one hate these kinds of blinds. It's 2010 and I think people can handle gay movie stars. The only thing that's explosive about this is how it makes me angry.

Don't underestimate the power of homophobia and social pressure. NPH is one thing, but if a traditional action star came out, a huge number of men would stop seeing their movies to avoid being teased or for fear of being suspected to be gay.

RocketQueen said...

Boring.

Angie said...

@indigoblue

agreed...time for them all to come out already..this shit is played out.

jax said...

i knew Renner was gay. he has that scary Tom Cruise quality about him. don't be surprised if in a few years we see Jerry O'Connell spoofing him too.

Mission Impossible now too..ugh.

sunnyside1213 said...

Mooshki, I totally agree with you. Gay by association.

timebob said...

It isn't right but I think we are at least a generation away from seeing an openly gay action star.

I sitll think Jeremey's PR trying to put him with Jessica Simpson was just the silliest thing.

Doesn't take away how great an actor he is. I remember watching him on Bravo's IT show and I knew he was special and would be huge one day.

LOL @ he has that scary Tom Cruise quality about him

Explosive could be the hint. Since Jeremy came out in that movie Hurt Locker.

sunnyside1213 said...

I wonder if the GMD (Got Aids Yet Midget Dwarf) chose him because he is gay?

Sarah J. MacManus said...

It'll only get better if they step out of the closet. NO ONE CARES. Seriously.

memyselfandi said...

I can't wait until the world doesn't care who you sleep with.

Barton Fink said...

Wow. "Got Aids Yet" is kind of a harsh slur, isn't it?

sunnyside1213 said...

Sorry Barton. I was a teenager in New Orleans and that is what people said. My apologies.

sunnyside1213 said...

Barton, just to clarify, my gay friends said that.

Melody the First said...

James Dean came out as bisexual in the press in 1954. Didn't hurt his stardom any.

Anotheramy said...

Would it be easier to list off the Hollywood men not rumored to be gay or bi?

Anonymous said...

Could be Renner. Offbeat could be a reference to the TV show he was in "The Unusuals". Explosive for the Hurt Locker.

re: melodythefirst

yeah, cause he died not too long after that.

Elle said...

I dunno, maybe it's my rose tinted glasses but men would stop seeing action star movies because the lead is gay? Maybe you're right... and that makes me sad. I asked my husband and his response was he didn't give a shit either way because he doesn't actually identify himself with the action stars themselves. To him they are just dudes who blow shit up for a living and are pretty much a vehicle to pass a couple of hours with noise and shit getting blown up for him and his friends. Oh and throw in some Transformers and they are happy. 'Megan who? Oh that chick in front of the cars? Yeah but did you see those f*cking cars man?'

Plus, he loves NPH and his Barney :-)
