Today's Blind Items - Banned
It turns out there is another actor who has made himself unwelcome at certain hotels and spas. Much like John Travolta, this actor is also closeted and also enjoys the touch of male masseurs. Our actor is an Academy Award winner and is one of the better actors of the past two decades. He can easily move between movies, and the stage and that almost television thing. Apparently on a recent trip to Santa Barbara he stayed at Bacara which is an extremely nice resort on the beach. After his most recent visit where he succeeded in his quest for relief from a male masseur with the promise of a very large tip he was told by the management that he is not welcome any longer at the hotel.

DeleteYour time to shine, Riven! As the big winner, you get to watch the boring video of the day! ;)
DeleteSo, is that your secret plan to keep others from guessing?
DeleteHadn't crossed my mind, Gayeld, but that is pretty genius.

ReplyDeleteKevin Spacey
ReplyDeletefaaaaaaaakkk
ReplyDeleteYep, what they said.
ReplyDeleteEasy peasy :(
ReplyDeleteThis absolutely reads like Spacey with his movies, plays & now netflix show.
ReplyDeleteSpacey - it is unanimous
ReplyDelete"That almost television thing". Yup.
ReplyDeleteIt's been mentioned before, though, Spacey isn't closeted, he just doesn't talk about his personal life. E has before mentioned something along the lines of him being a bit rough in the saddle. I love ******SPOILER****** Kaiser, though, and I'm not convinced he's a tool.
The almost television thing gives it away.
ReplyDeleteBut if he did as he promised and left a big tip then masseur has double standards non??
DeleteHugh Jackman
ReplyDelete@FSP
DeleteSugartits I was thinking the same thing. If he succeeded then why was he asked not to come back. Makes no sense to me either.
ReplyDeleteIf masseur didn't want to he shouldn't have but doing it then taking big tip and ratting him out seems trifling non??
DeleteSimple: The masseur likely performed the extra bit to keep his job (because it's a major Hollywood star - intimidation by power and money). However, he likely then reported it to management and possibly (especially if he did not want to do it cause that's coercion) threatened to sue for sexual harassment if the company didn't do anything about it. Ergo, actor got his happy ending and the masseur got to keep his job. Best resolution for the company too. They lose the income but keep their prestige and reputation.
DeleteUnder rug swept.
Kevin spacey isn't closeted, he simply hasn't declared anything
ReplyDeleteWilliam Hurt-oscar kiss of a spider woman

Forgot..Tony for children of a Lesser God
ReplyDeleteNot Hugh Jackman.
ReplyDeleteStill very much in love with his best friend - his wife.

Hurt didn't get a Tony for "Children of a Lesser God". He was in the movie only. John Rubinstein played the part on Broadway.
ReplyDeleteHurt only did one Broadway play and that was back in the 80's. The rest was off Broadway before that.
His reputation is womanizer. I've never heard an inkling that he's closeted.
Spacey is still the best choice.
This is easy peasy.
ReplyDeleteby the way. just found this and wanted to share - further re: Jackman.

"Deborra Lee-Furness: It's Not Easy Being Married to Hugh Jackman!"
Spacey is also the guess for the guy who's nasty to his boy toys & keeps them in the hotel room all day.
ReplyDeletealas Spacey
ReplyDeletethus no happy ending........
@ trudi..theatre vet is inclusive of off broadway, to my knowledge he won Tony for COALG, my bad if not.
ReplyDeleteHe isn't a womanizer, he was is/ masongynistic. He lives or lived much of his adult life in grand view/ piedmont ny, where I grew up
*piermont.
ReplyDeleteReclusive and, ambiguous are 2 words I would use to describe him..
That is what I align with "closeted" ..if Kevin spacey is still closeted in the general public(or enties) opinion....than lboy George is straight IMHO
well I see your point there Tricia but what about that stuff with Marlee Matlin?
ReplyDeletewasn't there some stuff about abuse going on there?
if he is closeted then he is really deep
For some reason Anthony Hopkins came to mind (because of his stage work). The only other would be Gary Oldman (also because of his stage work). You want to "service Hannibal Lector or the guy Hannibal fed to the pigs? I thought I'd think outside the box.
ReplyDeleteSo now he is banned at this hotel as well as a number of restaurants where he harassed the male waitstaff.
ReplyDeleteI could see Spacey for this. He has admitted in the past he is not always very nice, its a real struggle for him.
ReplyDeletecould have just hired the guy "off the clock"...
ReplyDeletecheap shit...
I'll go with Alec Baldwin ftw
ReplyDelete@raja...he had a relationship with her..a real one
ReplyDeleteKevin has been with women too....a long ago ex of mine, never admitted it, but they were more than friends...and he heavily indicated spacey is bisexual, which other blinds have alluded to.
So again, sexuality, being a spectrum, is cryptic and obtuse....but "closeted, to me, still means someone who is not living out loud, and after Kevin s indescretions in Hempstead heath(gay park) in London, etc...I just don't up get the association...there's no shroud of mystery there, ya know? He just don't give a toss ..and was, lovely actually, from what ine member of him at the time.
But people change..he definitely grew a tad, lass-gregarious with success and age.
ReplyDeleteEnty calling out JT as closeted...ballsy and me likes
ReplyDeleteWilliam Hurt never won a Tony. Period.
ReplyDeleteI'll agree with you on his anger issues, which are well known.
As I stated, I was perhaps erroneous about the Tony..however he did win an Obie..Off by a couple letters..
ReplyDeleteAnd an oscar, which this blind was originally, about
Sexuality is cryptic and obtuse?
ReplyDeleteCan be cryptic an obtuse..., not everyone puts it up there on a jumbotron, ya know
ReplyDeleteI think only people can be obtuse?
ReplyDeleteThis is Kevin Spacey, who is 'closeted' if you ask the "flyover" types - the people who get all their news from the magazine rack, who buy everything People sells, who think Kim and Kanye's marriage is real. Yes, there are a lot of people who know about Spacey, but there are probably 10x as many who don't.
ReplyDeleteSpacey is such an odd case to me, I think he has a danger fetish or something. It seems he has a fairly large stable of men who want to be with him for the cash or whatever, but perhaps he prefers the challenge of the chase.
Right, well, splitting hairs a bit, people are in control/charge of their sexuality, or perception, thereof, ..that was my point
ReplyDeleteCertain people will only let you know what they want you to know about it: hence= obstruction of actual truly! complete truth etc
@FS I agree with you 100% ..he is , seemingly, undetected by a certaindemographic..but dunno , I mean anyone who reads anything other than national geographic(which doesn't matter cuz he is never in rags),
ReplyDeleteOr doesn't think his mannerisms, public indescretions, and blatant , if not, provocative, way of meandering around the subject , is the answer to the burning question...well please.....what must he do..a TIME cover like Ellen.."Yep, I ,Kaiser Soza AM"..
@TriciaS. HOLD DA PHONE!
ReplyDeleteUr ex was a man who had a relationship with KSpace, or ur ex was a woman who had KSpace??
(Either way, dats some good tea there, ya know?)
@ SMF....
ReplyDeleteMale...ex BF/casual side...but I was nutso for him...about 20 years ago....he wa a waiter in NYC, where I lived/am from thereabouts...and yeah..the restaurant is a tthtr district/celeb friendly place and Kevin and he got aqua intend there...and tho he never said, Jn a female intuitive way, I know they had a thing...(always wondered bout Jon(was his name)
And when I asked..is Kevin gay..cuz even 20 years ago I presumed he was!!! Duh, ..his answer was the eve cryptic(hence my comment earlier)
ReplyDelete"He'....sexual".
ReplyDeleteI'll never forget it...lol
I felt like a side dish .....
Spacey is the only one that fits, and yes, to most of the general public he is considered straight. Still not sure why he would be banned from a hotel if it was consensual. Dunno. Must be hard being a masseuse because the expectation is that you will give happy endings.
ReplyDeleteNot being open about his gayness is the same as being closeted
ReplyDeleteNo, I think the lack of candor he has RE: his-homosexuality, has more to do with discretion , and a combination of ambivalence and rebellion
ReplyDeleteSpacey was my first thought.
ReplyDeleteWhen I think of Spacey I think of the "Family Guy" where Stewie runs naked through a department store screaming he's just escaped from Kevin Spacey's basement. Spacey never sued.

ReplyDelete*pseudo reporting
ReplyDeleteKevin Spacey is not closeted! Everyone knows he's gay. What does "he likes it rough in the saddle mean" though? He's into bdsm? He's a bottom? I don't get the reference.
ReplyDeleteOmg I need a sandwich

ReplyDeleteKat. Stop teasing us..when will you actually LEAVE the bldg? I want to be sure my happy hour invites go out correctly
ReplyDelete@Tricia Shaw-hi from a former Nyackian.
ReplyDeleteHey Sophie B:))
ReplyDeleteWhy not call an escort instead of picking on the hotel staff?

ReplyDeletePaul Giamatti?
ReplyDeleteSpacey isn't closeted to us, but I guarantee you, the vast majority of ppl in the world have no clue. If you mention Travolta is gay, or Will Smith is gay and a Co$, the ppl who will be shocked will surprise you. Y'all are forgetting how clueless most ppl are.
