Today's Blind Items - He Died

It has been a sad past few months for this A list movie actor. And let me start right off by saying this is not John Travolta and the actor I'm talking about does not even like John Travolta. In fact, one time they actually shoved each other. So, there you go. Our actor is A list. Only movies, although he seems like the kind of guy that if you gave him something fun or really good he would do television. He isn't a snob at all. He does though hold a secret that he thinks about every second of the day and that is his sexuality. He is married. Been so for awhile. Even before he met his wife though he met his best friend and his lover. The pair have been through everything together. he has generally worked on our actor's movies and is never far from his side. They lived in the same city and the wife knew about and accepted the relationship. It was great for her too because she had her own interests and our actor is a great guy and great provider. This was the perfect man for our actor. Never flashy. never wanting to be out in the open. Totally accepting of everything. On film sets around the world they were inseparable. Press tours? He was always waiting back at the hotel for our actor. Those were their times. Even though they lived in the same city, they rarely met up. They rarely saw each other. It was all about their time away. When they did meet in the city, the boyfriend would dress as a meter reader or even a Jehovah's Witness one time. But those encounters were rare.

About a year ago, the boyfriend got sick. Our actor put as much of his life on hold as he could and when he could not be with the boyfriend, his wife was. Together they saw him everyday and made sure he was always comfortable. He died about ten days ago. I wish the actor all the best and hope this maybe sets him free in many ways to show the world who he is and that it's ok and everyone will still love you.

Jehovah's Witnesses have a 'uniform'? No, that's Mormon's! In UK anyway..

An older actor definitely for this bline, but cannot for the life of me figure out who.

Richard Gere????

Hunter said...

It can't be RBJ, he has done tv (cast member on SNL and was on Ally McBeal)

Can't be Bruce Willis, he was on Moonlighting which aired for like 4 or 5 years.

I like the Richard Gere guess, he's been married since 2002, and he's very active in AIDS fundraising, but his IMDB shows him as being very busy. Hmmm.

I am thinking the partner died of AIDS

Basil said...

@it took forever. I suppose AIDS is possible, but just because he was gay doesn't mean that is what he died from. Besides, not a doctor here, but AIDS doesn't really work like that now as far as I know. From the blind it says he had been sick for a year before he died and my first thought was cancer, which appears to me to be more likely to predict how long you could last even with chemo or radiation. AIDS isn't really that predictable. Either way, I hope he had lots of meds.

Chritopher Walken always looks sullen and there were always rumors about him and RJ on that boat, NOT him and Natalie. But he's done TV - SNL, for one.

chris noth and SJP long term affair? Where have i been? I thought they were only friends. If it's true then I think Matthew Broderick is an excellent guess. SJP recently let slip in an interview that she and matthew had not had sex in over 5 years...but they are still together.
Chris Noth was an affair?? Ohhhhh

I have the feeling actor might be somewhat older . . . Christopher Plummer? He seemed happy at the Tony's but perhaps he is capable of putting on a brave face. The sickness described could be an illness like dementia or another old-age disease. That is a very difficult way to watch someone go.

Basil said...

I worked with Christopher Plummer on a movie once. My gaydar didn't ping, and there was no one on the crew who could fit into the blind. And FTR, Plummer was a nice guy and treated the crew as co-workers and not servants.

Not DeNiro. He's had such a specific and known preference for black women his whole life that it would not make sense.

Bill Boyer said...

Johnny Depp seems like a good choice here.
