Blind Item #10

I love how this guy from One Direction has decided to cover up his closetedness by pretending to be dating multiple women at once. It kind of reminds me of Corey Feldman a few years ago when he would walk around with multiple women to make it seem like he was still a star.

Harry. Why do they bother. People are onto the fake relationship and bearding thing. It's like they think the whole world are a bunch of fools.

Grace said...

Dear Ever,
Note: look at who is "sitting" in the Whitehouse, ask your question again. Maybe not the whole world is foolish ......49% of the U.S.A apparently IS

You got this from a picture? Those girls were his new girl band from his label. Smh.

People who voted for him just ignored the one basic fact about hiring -- you don't hire someone who has absolutely no experience for the job, to a position that requires you have experience. That's what entry level jobs are for. I'm not a supporter by any means, but most of what is happening is due to a complete lack of experience. I don't envy him one bit. He looks like he's going through hell. We are all going through hell. His supporters blame everything on everyone but Trump. But the buck stops with him. If he was a truly fit for the presidency, none of this would be happening. A true leader takes responsibility, holds accountability, and takes control. We are witnessing the greatest train wreck in US history. Let's hope we all, and I include Trump, make it through unscathed.

agreed. the industry thinks the consumers are so much dumber than they actually are. see: swift and hiddleston, kendall jenner and everyone.

Same, Cookies, same.

Not for nothing - today's "press conference" was frickin EPIC.
IDGAF who you support, that demonstration will be analyzed for decades to come.
Even Fox News followed with a "WTF?!".
If you missed it, watch it.

OKay said...

Actually, it's more like 24%. Unfortunately, 49% of the U.S.A. DOES suffer from tremendous apathy.

Andy said...

Niall the Irish guy is straight I believe the other four rumoured to be gay.

Hortensia said...

I heard it on the radio. He's completely falling apart. Yippee! Just don't do any more harm.
As for Feldman, he's a what, a wannabe or IS a pimp. Just. So. Gross.

ShutUpAlready said...

When will the nonstop political hijacking of every post stop? It's a gossip website,stop ruining it!

Mi said...

None of 1d are dating multiple girls though. I think only Liam is dating anyone right now. But yes 2 if not 3 are closeted. Niall is straight, Liam? Not sure.

Kay said...

Yes, the blind is made up on the basis of the girl band that Louis is producing. No, once more - none of them are gay, though Harry has had some friendships with guys (outside of the band!) that seem a little surprising. There are NO actual gay rumours of ANY of them that were not completely made up by the obsessive fanbase that wants to see them together (and absolutely not gay with _someone else_). It was based on early jokesy playacting that they dialled back when they realised the fans were taking it seriously, but they didn't account for the crazy echo space of the current fan culture. When that picture material stopped, fans started actively manipulating pics and videos to further sell their fantasy and keep it up by fanfic, sheer lies on sites like this and harassment of the band members' and their families' social media. It's all about teenage girls deliberately misled by power kicks in the fandom social pyramid - many of them not native speakers of English, from countries where being gay is still actively dangerous so it's a huge, tragic fantasy for them that the band is being forcefully kept in the closet (which has been proven not to be feasible, also, they're not even with the same label anymore). None of it has any real basis, any reported comments, sightings etc. were proven to be made up by fans.

Louis dated Eleanor Calder for three years, fathered a baby after he broke up with her, then dated actress Danielle Campbell for a year. Liam has been in a couple of long-term relationships with women, and there's no reason to believe his relationship with Cheryl was some pr plan. He's earnest, romantic and young; she's undeniably gorgeous and he's always idolised her. Zayn was with Perrie Edwards before Gigi, and has been rumoured to have cheated constantly - always with girls. Niall has actually not had a stable relationship with anyone, so isn't it odd that he's said to be the straight one? Except it isn't: there's no-one in the band to pair him with, so the fans allow him to be "the token straight one".

They're not gay. It just so happened that this boyband does not have a closeted gay one. Possibly one unlabeled one (Harry), and who knows how they end up identifying in their lives, because people are allowed to, but for now, nope.

Kay said...

I'm sorry for the TL;DR, but this is the widest fandom conspiracy theory ever, made possible by the new forms of social media in several self-feeding ways, and it has real, harmful impact on real people. The fans harass Louis' 12-year-old sisters when they dare post material of their nephew, or Danielle (before); they sent manipulated porn that supposedly resembled Louis and Harry to his then 15-year-old sister; they spewed hate on his mother when she posted about her grandson (all the while in hospital for cancer!); the endless hate the son's mother and her family get is utterly vile. And in those parts of fandom that believe the conspiracy theories up to and including that the baby is fake (he's 1y now / a clone of his father!), they behave exactly like a cult, bullying people into not questioning even the craziest party line in the name of wanting to, supposedly, "free" people who have no need of freeing. If only they'd put that energy to defending _actual_ LGBTQ people! But no, it's got to be these, because they just want their perfect story.

^^^^^^^^^ 1000x THIS!
and blogs like these just play into the bs and the fandom.

Lightning strikes said...

Thank you Kay pr representative from Sony. Thanks for that long winded defense of the glorious institution known as the closet. Can't let the gay get in the way of the money stream now can we? Holding up homophobia and the patriarchy. You're very good at your job. Money at any cost. Truth be damned.

Fluff said...

Harry is probably gay or bi, but I agree the Larries are literally sociopathic. You "love" the men so much you harass their families 24/7?

information desk said...

Kay wow.. take a Xanax ok girl

Velocity said...

I see Simon's minions are here. Hi guys!! How's Simon? How's Paul, his boyfriend of many years? Good I hope.

RenShaw said...

Still pathetic.

longtimereader said...

Hope enty reads your post and stops with never-ending 'cowell is straight' blinds. I agree that the irish one appears to be the only straight member.

Plastic fantastic said...

I think all five of them are closeted. That's why they all date within in same closeted circle. Harry was papped last year with Erin whoever in a pumpkin patch. Erin happens to be Gigi Hadid's step sister , Gigi Hadid who is "dating" Zayn Malik. Gigi is friends with the wannabe football player Jordan, who has been pictured with Liam Payne. Taylor "dated" Harry whose bandmate Niall "dated" Taylor's friend Selena Gomez. It's one big circle jerk of closeting and pr "dating ". People need to understand that half of Hollywood/music industry is closeted. Even politicians!! Even members of royal families around the world!! If people want change start supporting actors, actresses, musicians , politicians and people in everyday life around you who have the balls to live life free of the closet. Stop prying into these people's lives. The closet pays their damn mortgages. Until Hollyweird and the rest of the world becomes less homophobic and won't tolerate being lied to constantly, none of the nonsense will change. Move on with your lives. Support out artists. They need your support.

Yep said...

^^^^ agreed. Did any of you download frank oceans last album? Or yearsandyears? Did any of the Larries go see Moonlight? Who did y'all vote for? Also I think speculation about someone's sexuality results in something called higher fan engagement. I wouldn't be surprised if more f-list and d-list musicians (especially girls) put out bi or gay rumors just for attention.

Cookies said...

Thank you for your voice of reason. It does my head in how these gossip sites think that so many celebrities are gay! How statistically likely is that? LOL.

Emmy said...

Some very nice essays here - B+ - but at the end of the day Harry and Louis are a couple, Liam is happily bi, and the Irish guy is straight but questioning. Zayn only loves getting high.

Matthews said...

I acutally saw two of the guys hanging out at the Edge in London a while ago (well my friend recognised them), they didn't give the impression of being uncomfortable in this kind of setting. Personally, I don't judge people who stay in the closet for their career, but I don't get why people always have to try so hard when it can be so simple. Nobody needs more than one official girlfriend to come across as hetero. If you want to cover up your sexuality - go average, not overboard. So many gay people in the industry go overboard with their public hetero image to a point where it backfires.

D.R.B said...

Louis Tomlinson
OR
Zayn Malik
OR
Harry Styles
OR
Liam Payne

a said...

Louis Tomlinson obviously, with his gold digger baby mama, recent ex Disney Danielle, money hungry 'it girl' ex Eleanor and serial beard Bella Thorne in the picture.

His crazy fans need to get over the fact that he's doing whatever he thinks is necessary to stay relevant and get that Cowell money - at least Harry will come out of the closet soon.

Wackadoodle said...

I feel like Harry's very comfortable with his sexuality (whatever that may be) and not to sound hippie dippy but he is an aquarius. And if you're into astrology aquariuns are game changers and unique rugged individualists. They don't like to be boxed in or labeled and they think on a global scale with their heads in the clouds. I know because my husbands an Aquarius. Lol.

Go Between said...

1D were bearding from the start. Even take away the Larries and loony PR shills like Kay, above. The whole setup was to achieve max attention and get these girls talked about by little girl fans of 1D to 'aspire' to be like them, models and fashion bloggers, how cerebral.

Harry is clearly interested in men, anyone can see it and he's practically said it several times. But as for Louis, Christ, how his fans cannot see he is electing to closet himself, not being made or forced to...they must be so smitten with him. He obviously enjoys bearding and distancing himself from being associated with anything gay publicly.

If my team had have tweeted 'I am in fact straight' against my will I'd have fired the lot of them, contract or no contract. Bitches. This is Simon Cowbells code of ethics and Louis is right up there playing along with it. His fans are insane if they imagine him to be a. A proud gay man b. Ever coming out.

There's at least as bit more hope for Harry, who has publicly laid some groundwork to come out if he does want yo in future.

Go Between said...

a, his crazy fans still this he and Harry are coming out together, holding hands, in a sort of huge People spread.

Yeah, dream on kids...the only queer duo spread will be Harry and Kendall. That'll be a fun day. But Louis? Forget it. In PR terms he is only interested in being linked to as many women as possible.

Nope said...

I've been following Cowell's bullshit since the late 90's and if it's one thing this unbearable dimwit is good at, it's sucking the life out of his clients and treating them like crap, especially when contracts are ending and there's no extension happening (which is the case here). It's not hard to see he's trying to fuck with these guys public image (something his clients are not in control of) to destroy the brand. So no, this guy is not voluntarily closeting himself, it's just Cowell throwing a tabloid tantrum and being the usual bitter sack of shit.

a said...

Now that would be a fun feature! And frankly it's what the kids want, look at Troy Sivan and Hari Nef winning over Vogue currently. Harry will go on to do great things for pop culture.

Louis, especially now after his arrest, is in a whole other galaxy. The only thing we'll be seeing of him in magazines are more scandals -- so long as a girl (or more!) is involved though!

Claire said...

I know for a fact Niall is straight and actually still a virgin (waiting for marriage) very religious Irish guy. Zayn,Harry and Louis were in like a love triangle and possible Liam also? Liams a dark horse not sure if hes gay or not
