  1. Did Mike Myers get divorced? If not, I say Robin Williams.

  2. It could be either. I remember a blind from several years back that said something like, "what hairy oscar winner spent most of his time face down in a pillow in (some gay resort town) in the name of research for an upcoming role as a gay man?" That was clearly Robin Williams.

  8. So is Mike Myers the guy with young guys in his trailer??? We all thought Will Smith, (Lainey item)

  9. I would have said RW if not for the Groovy, so yeah, my guess would be MM.

  10. Gotta be Mike Myers. He's vaguely referenced a girlfriend "out of the industry" in recent interviews, but you know that's a screen.

    And, I'm no DNfromMN, but I saw the Love Guru and I didn't hate it. It was torched in reviews and I expected the worst - and while pretty bad, it wasn't the worst...

    That damn Zohan movie was the WORST EVER.

    Will Smith is the guy from Lainey's blind. She confirmed it. However, this one is Mike Myers. He's been on the DL for a while and was going to parties with a boyfriend.

  14. Why would it be a blind if he was openly gay? Couldn't they just say who it is?

  15. Gotta love the easy ones when they come around.

    (Mike Myers)

  16. duh mike myers, there was another b.i. right after he got divorced that was as clear as day about him. it referenced a famous line from one of his SNL skits

  17. oh it is Mike Myers alright,its no secret in Toronto.

    Lainey pretty much confirmed the Will Smith trailers BI by narrowing down the guesses to leave only Will. it was pretty obvious.

  18. Just goes to show you: closet cases are unfunny bitches.

  19. All those blinds led to MM and now it's proving true. Let's not all fall off our chairs when MM comes out! Maybe he won't be as dark an depressed anymore.

  20. my first thought was Robin Williams but because of the use of the word Groovy, I have to say Mike Myers.

  21. I've seen Mike in passing on two talk shows now (Daily Show and Today) discussing two man-crushes he has (Jon and Justin T.). He's probably testing the public waters. Will fans care if he's gay? With Love Guru not doing as well at the box office, I'd guess it'll be easier for him to come out. Not as much to lose.

  22. I always liked Mike Myers but recently I have been reading a lot of diva-type stuff about him. Not that that has anything to do with whether or not he's gay, since it wouldn't make a difference to me one way or the other, but that demanding diva sh*t has got to STOP!

  23. I almost said Robin Williams but you all have changed my mind

  24. lainey did not confirm it was will smith. she never confirms.

  25. Funny, MM was on Regis last week and when they asked him to enter their high-heel race he said he couldn't because he was straight.

    ReplyDelete
  26. I thought Eddie Murphy at first, too. But earlier guesses have me switching to Mike Meyers.

    ReplyDelete
  27. No, it's definitely Mike Meyers. He's been living in the "glass closet" for years - he publicly lives as a gay man, but he's just never shouted about it in an article in Us Weekly or The Advocate.

    Groovy = so-obvious-that-this-item-shouldn't-be-called-"blind" hint that it's Meyers.

    And Meyers is divorced. He married a regular woman years ago and then got divorced after about 14 years of her putting up with his gay affairs. Her name was Robyn or something like that.
