Now that Ricky is out, what celebrities "everybody knows" are gay remain?

@GameHat

Still, Top Gun might be one of the “gayest” mainstream movies I’ve ever seen.

You haven’t seen 300 then?

[kidneyfailure]

I hear Cuba Gooding jr and Matthew Broaderick (not together, though…or, well, y’never know) are closeted. I don’t know if I believe that, though.

I got to know a guy who used to work at an upscale strip club in San Francisco, and he said that Chris Isaak would regularly come in with various women, (the women he brought to the club were always asian) where the two of them would select a stripper and then all three would get busy in the VIP room, with plenty of toys and games for all…

The strippers were always hoping he would choose them, as apparently he was very generous with his money.

@DMark

Tom Cruise - and my sources are in the position to know this with absolute certainty.

What, did they actually see him blowing a guy?

And by “position,” you mean…?

[Annie-Xmas]

Nobody’s mentioned Richard Gere?!

And come out Leonardo.

@joebuck20

Rick Perry. There’ve been rumors swirling around Texas for years that he was caught in flagrante delicto with a male aid at the state capitol.

What… like Viagra?

The names on my “everybody knows” list are:
Queen Latifah
Kevin Spacey
Wentworth Miller
John Travolta
Matthew Broderic

@GuanoLad

Apparently Zachary Quinto, aka Sylar/Spock, is in the closet. I’m not sure if that’s widely believed enough to fit the OP’s rules.

I thought Quinto was out of the closet? Though I could be wrong. His Wikipedia profile only says he’s an “active supporter of gay rights”.

In which case I’ll just say that it makes him closeted in the same sense that Adam Lambert was closeted during his American Idol days… which is to say, as obvious as the nose on my face, unless you’re my clueless sheltered MIL.

DMark will often pop into the “So who’s gay?” threads with tales of his cousin’s brother’s neighbor’s former roommate being Cruise’s boytoy for awhile. I believe DMark has said this person even has some kind of physical proof (like photos) of their encounters as well.

I’ve got no reason to think he’s lying, but you’d think with such concrete evidence this person would have made a mint from the tabloids by now.

[Death_of_Rats]

@Beetle_Juice

I have it on good authority Tiger Woods and Jim Carrey have an ongoing affair.

At this point, who isn’t Tiger having an affair with?

[Nzinga_Seated]

@Hazle_Weatherfield

I just thought that was general knowledge. She recently broke up with her girlfriend of three years. I don’t have a super reliable cite, but if you do a search, it turns up all over the place.

Oh. Ok. I kinda thought it was general knowledge too, but I wondered if she ever officially came out…like Wanda Sykes did.

Seriously. Cruise is one about who there is always a raft of “I know someone who did him” stories, but not one solid photo or anything has ever surfaced over 20+ years of him being a big deal . You’d think someone would have snapped a pic or something. It’d be worth hundreds of thousands to the tabloids.

[Southern_Yankee]

Howard Stern is in the middle of a mini-feud with Jamie Foxx, and he’s been dropping hints that Foxx is gay. He says he “knows” a lot about Foxx that he wouldn’t want made public, and he keeps peppering his remarks with innuendos. I’ve also heard that Foxx is “Toothy Tile” from Ted Casablanca’s “Awful Truth” column.

[Skammer]

I could have sworn Ricky Martin came out years ago. That’s the only reason the headline surprised me.

[Sampiro]

Actors I’ve wondered about but obviously have no evidence for one way or another:

John Cusack

Jeffrey Donovan (Burn Notice)

John Malkovich (has kids and all but just pings my gaydar- which I realize has nothing to do with evidence)

Matthew McConaughey (has lots of gorgeous she-dates but…)

Billy Zane (twice married, but again- pings)

[Swallowed_My_Cellphone]

@MTCicero

Jodie Foster.

Came out publicly a couple years ago.

[Illuminatiprimus]

@Mahna_Mahna

So is Seth MacFarlane but there’s no evidence that he’s gay.

[ivan_astikov]

Robert De Niro and Joe Pesci.

Come on, how many films do they have to do together before we accept the obvious.

Obviously if I could quote the sources, I would.
No, I am not stupid enough to believe my cousin’s brother’s neighbor’s former roommate BS. I also do not believe every yahoo Gay porn star hanging around West Hollywood bars and bragging about the celebrity they bedded. All of those are “he said/he said” and I take them with a grain of salt, although there was one story about Richard Simmons that made me laugh, but still I never claimed to know more about him.

I worked at a film studio in LA, and know people in legal/casting and also know some of the celebrities personally as well. If i could name names, this discussion would end.
However, I promise not to ever mention this again. Not worth the effort and can’t say the sources; and as mentioned, who really cares anymore? Tom Cruise is becoming old news.

While I agree about Tom Cruise, for what it’s worth I have never read a post by you on ANY subject that didn’t seem (to me at least) completely truthful and to the point. (I esp. enjoy hearing about your time in Berlin)

That said, rumors about celebrity sex lives are not nearly as interesting to me as stories about how a big celeb. treats some random waitress, or acts towards a cab driver or their interactions with a skycap at the Salt Lake airport—Sometimes those brief encounters can really tell you a lot about a person…
