with drag queens — and with his heterosexuality.

For a while now, gay men and straight women have lusted after “Chronicles
of Riddick” movie star . But now it seems that members of only
one demographic group have a chance of getting the reclusive actor in the sack.
“I am going to report information that suggests a major star might actually
be straight!,” gay gossip guru recently wrote about Diesel
in his Village Voice column. “Just the thought of this sort of thing
kills me.”
Apparently, Musto got the info from author and former club kid ,
who wrote the book “Disco Bloodbath” about gay club kid killer
MICHAEL ALIG. The book was turned into a documentary as well as the feature
film “Party Monster.”
St. James knew Diesel when he was a bouncer at the Tunnel, a famed New York
nightclub. “I hear the gay rumors too; he does look the part,” St.
James told Musto.
But, he added, “Vin was always straight. And believably so. He would
sing show tunes and flirt outrageously with me and the other drag queens, but
he wasn’t overcompensating — he was totally comfortable with his
heterosexuality.”
St. James says he remembers the women Diesel slept with, and those he didn’t
touch.
“Every queen at the Tunnel was always after him, and I would have heard
it if one of them finally had him,” he said. “Of course he was
only 19 — and maybe he’s come out. But I really think he’s
straight.”
Well, at least St. James kept some of the dream alive.
Now that screen legend has gone to that great big actors’ studio
in the sky, more naughty details about his personal life are oozing out of
the closet.
New York Daily News gossip hounds Rush & Molloy report that Brando biographer
Peter Manso has a copy of a picture showing the actor giving another man what
Dish likes to call “oral pleasure.”
“There is no question it’s Marlon,” Manson told R&M. “My
sense is that it was posed, that he did it for the shock value.”
Brando, who died on July 1 at age 80, never kept his man-on-man action a secret.
“I, too, have had homosexual experiences and am not ashamed. Deep down
I feel ambiguous.” he told biographer Gary Carey for his book “Marlon
Brando: The Only Contender.”
In the Internet age, it’s surely just a matter of time before the photo
becomes as ubiquitous as the sex tape.
Luckily for us, the snapshot seems to have been shot in the mid- to late-’50s,
when the legendary actor was still as beautiful as he was talented.
Speaking of the Internet, gay pop singer launched a forum for
fans on his official Web site, www.georgemichael.com.
But when critics began posting negative comments about the 41-year-old singer’s
appearance and talent, instead of saying how fabulous, sweetie, fabulous he
is, the forum was shut down. Some critics said Michael looked old and overweight,
and that his new music wasn’t all that hot, the Associated Press reports.
Before shutting down this component of the site, Michael said, “Those
of you that want to carry on the media’s work will have to do it somewhere
else I suppose."
“Sorry guys, but that’s the way it goes … Peace and Love … or
nothing at all.”
