Today's Blind Items - The Past

This in the past wannabe A++ lister with phony hair who is currently up for an A list position thought his homosexual past was well hidden although rumors of it have sprung up from time to time.  His past consists of a period in his college days where he worked as an escort for wealthy men for money.  However, this other wannabe A++ lister (the second wannabe in his family) who also has phony hair and serves with him and is technically on the same side but has real disagreements with him on the world is working with the buffoonish commentator who is in financial trouble and who once confronted in person the A lister with the gay past.  They are trying to push that information on his past in X and other online places to stop him from getting the position.
