Blind Item #8
As much time as this married foreign born A list mostly movie actor who is an Academy Award winner/nominee spends with his long time boyfriend, you would think he would just come out. The only thing the pair don't do in public is show physical affection.
Eddie Redmayne
ReplyDeleteThis is just sad. If you are a good actor, your sexuality won't matter. Nobody watched Ian McKellen as Magneto and though "boy what a swish"
ReplyDeleteHugh Jackman
ReplyDeleteYour sexuality doesn't matter, if you don't make a point of putting it out there. Once you make a point of putting it out there, it matters very much.
ReplyDeleteHe wasn't the sexual interest either. Fans have a sexual interest in HJ. That's the horse he rode in on anyway.
ReplyDeleteSadly, no leading man has come out. McKellen was over 60 when he even got noticed in films and had been out for years. Jackman was a 'leading man, sexiest man alive' etc. Also, Jackman is married with kids. Coming out would brand his wife as a beard. It's not just about him.
ReplyDeletenews flash -- simply being gay doesn't diminish an actor's sexiness in most women's eyes. if he's hot, masculine, sexy, he's hot, masculine and sexy. he's unattainable anyway, so why not dream? don't gay men fantasize about straight men? it just doesn't matter.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely..... my mom still doesn't believe me when I tell her what's up with Hugh...
ReplyDelete+1
ReplyDeleteLeave him alone! A true gentleman inHollywood is rare!
ReplyDeleteIt would not change my opinion of him. Look at Matt Bomer, one of the dreamiest men in Hollywood (hands down). I still lust after him and after coming out he seems to have a much hotter career. From cable TV (not many people watched) to working with Ryan Murphy production/movies on the big screen.
ReplyDeleteDoes Hugh have an AA?
ReplyDeletematt bomer is a SUPERB example of how coming out doesn't always end careers.
ReplyDeleteI can only hope his example inspires others struggling in the closet. love him
it doesnt matter TO US. to the suits, they see a risk they arent willing to take. dont want to alienate the homophobes! otherwise the studios cant get their money!
ReplyDeleteits pathetic
same with mine :-/
ReplyDeleteI agree, the beard thing adds a subterfuge element to it tho, which is unfortunate bc it draws attention
ReplyDelete?
ReplyDeleteEven more challenging are out chats about Clooney lol!
Wait till that day comes(if it ever does....)
It's award/or nomination.
ReplyDeleteHe was nominated for Les Miserables for best actor
Bomer was on his way to leading man status. He was on the short list to be the next Superman (For the Routh film, I think, not the Cavil one). He was the lead on White Collar. Since then? Supporting roles and prestige "TV" gigs on streaming services. In other words, Bomer is no longer getting star roles. His chance to be a leading man are over.
ReplyDelete.
So, yeah. In the closet they'll be staying.
Maybe now Hugh sees a chance to change his image, his kids are older, and he is done with leading man or action roles.He is a true triple threat, he will always get work.
ReplyDeleteOr maybe not. He does pap walks two or three times a week, clutching onto his wife and gushing about his marriage. So don't think he is changing anything at the present time.
ReplyDeleteI'm a straight married lady (40's) and matt Bomer is so hot. Knowing someone is gay doesn't diminish their hot factor with women at all!!! Contrary to what Hollywood wants you to think. Infact I was talking to some girlfriends this weekend and the consensus was it maybe makes guys a little bit sexier. How many of us have had gay friends we've developed little crushes on?
ReplyDeleteExcuses. Excuses. Things will never change if people continue to hide bundled in their excuses.
ReplyDeleteThere's a first time for everything. And nonone would brand her a beard. She's probably one of his best friends. No harm done. No judgement.
ReplyDeleteGay Hollywood for the love of Christ find your balls.
