Method Acting?


The Miami Herald had a report this morning that highlighted the night of Jim Carrey, Ewan McGregor, and Rodrigo Santo who were spotted at Halo which is a gay bar in Miami. The trio are in town filming a movie about a guy who falls in love with his jail cellmate. True story by the way. This could have been research. As you probably know, gay bars are filled with men who have been jailed and fell in love with their cellmate, or jail turned them gay, or gays want to go to jail so they can be with their own kind, or any other stereotype which comes to mind.

Honestly, when I first read it I thought the boys had discovered what I already knew. Gay bars are the best place to pick up girls. Yes they are. You see, gay guys have lots of straight female friends. They go out, and generally go to a gay bar rather than a straight bar. Girl sees nothing but guy after guy after guy, and realizes none of them want him. Perhaps the bartenders are earning tips by wearing next to nothing. Then along comes 400 pounds of fun. Hell at that point, they will jump on anything straight. OK, so this only happened to me once, but honestly, the story has been good for 20 years.

What made me realize that something was amiss was the fact that McGregor and Santoro spent the entire night drinking champagne. Hip hop videos aside. No guys go out with other guys and order champagne. The champagne of beers, Miller maybe, but not just champagne. You would lose your man badge right there for that one. Now, Jim did just drink water, so no conclusions can be drawn to that. Well, actually I could, but they would take us down a long and winding road. So, guys only night is drinking champagne ok? When your significant other comes home from poker, and you ask him what he drank, does he say,"champagne." OMG, Bob had a lovely Krug Clos du Mesnil that was to die for while we watched porn and played Hold Em.

    No scandal here, except Ewan is known to swing in various directions. None of it sounds strange to me though.

    I enjoyed going out with my gay friends to the clubs. Good music and great dancers. Would also meet strange guys with weird stories about their wife/gf leaving them for a woman LOL.

  6. Funny post. There would need to be extreme circumstances for my husband and his friends drinking champagne together during guy's night out.

  7. Krug is deliciously complicated... and worth every penny. But aside from taking it up the ass in a corner, nothing is gayer than ordering champagne at a gay bar.

  10. Also what Jax said. Girls go to gay bars to escape getting hit on. Plus, my gays are WAY more entertaining than my straight friends.
