Jessica Simpson’s Father Hits Back at Gay Rumors

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Music, Television, Divorce, Rumors,

Jessica Simpson's father has hit back at rumors he is gay.

Joe Simpson - who recently announced he and his wife Tina have "amicably split" after 35 years together amid allegations she found pictures of him with 21-year-old aspiring male model Bryce Chandler Hill - is said to be extremely frustrated by the speculation and told friends it is completely false.

Sources close to former pastor have branded the accusations "ridiculous" and told gossip website TMZ.com Joe's sexuality had nothing to do with the break up of his marriage. But other insiders have claimed the 54-year-old father-of-two is simply not ready to come out publicly.

Tina filed for divorce papers in Texas on September 24, stating, "The marriage has become insupportable because of discord or conflict of personalities." The couple put their $4.4 million mansion on the market last month amid speculation they were living apart.

Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Music, Dating, Rumors,

Joe Simpson, father of Jessica and Ashlee, had an affair with a male model who is 33 years his junior. The affair revelation comes after the news broke that Joe's wife Tina was divorcing him, amid rumors that he is gay.

Twenty-one year-old model Bryce Chandler Hill, according to a source close to the Simpsons, was introduced to Joe through mutual friends of his daughters. "Joe Simpson being outed by the National Enquirer was no surprise to the gay community in Hollywood, Bryce has been bragging about hooking up with Joe for a while now," the source said. "Bryce is close to TJ Espinoza, who in turn is good friends with both Jessica and Ashlee and worked for Britney Spears as a back-up dancer. TJ introduced Bryce to the Simpsons – and that’s how he met Joe."

Hill, however, denies the affair. "Yes, I've read the story....it's simply NOT TRUE," he wrote on his Twitter.

Simpson has not yet commented on the alleged affair.

Pink: I Should Be Gay

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Music, Features,

Pink thinks she "should" be gay. The "So What" hitmaker - who has 16-month-old daughter Willow with husband Carey Hart - thinks her image means it would make "perfect sense" if she was a lesbian, particularly as she is so close to her homosexual pals.

"They've been the most loyal part of what I do. They've been my most loyal friends, to be honest. I've had a lot of my gay boys around, but my gay girls are my rootstalk. They're my honesty in an ocean of bulls**t. I should be gay by the way that I look and the way that I am. I just happen to not be. But it just makes perfect and complete sense."

Pink, 33, says she has always lived in an "open" world and admits she and her pals had no "definable sexuality" when they were partying and taking the drug ecstasy.

Lawsuit Against John Travolta Thrown Out by Judge

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Legal Issues, Rumors,

John Travolta has been cleared of accusations he ruined an author's reputation.

Robert Randolph wrote You'll Never Spa In This Town Again, in which he made claims the Pulp Fiction actor enjoyed gay sexual relations in Los Angeles' City Spa in the 1990s but then claimed John and his lawyer Marty Singer had falsely accused him of having serious mental problems to try and make him out to be an unreliable source.

However, a judge has thrown out his lawsuit against John and Mr. Singer, ruling a letter in which they made the accusations was a legitimate part of the legal dispute and so they cannot be prosecuted for it, according to TMZ.

Both John and Marty have previously issued statements branding the lawsuit "ridiculous." A representative for the Hairspray star said, "The lawsuit filed by Robert Randolph is absurd. The suit is based on a privileged communication, and it will promptly be thrown out by the court. To evaluate the credibility of Robert Randolph and his ridiculous lawsuit one need look no further than his own statements published on his website stating that he sustained 'permanent brain damage' and had to 'retrain' his brain."

Paris Hilton Apologizes for Negative Gay Comments

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Television, Rants,

Paris Hilton is sorry "from the bottom" of her heart of insulting gay people.

The 31-year-old socialite was recorded stating many gay men "probably have AIDS" and saying they are "disgusting" for being promiscuous to a friend in the back of a taxi, but she has now apologized for her words and insists they do not represent her true feelings towards the homosexual community.

"I am so sorry and so upset that I caused pain to my gay friends, fans and their families with the comments heard this morning. I was having this private conversation with a friend of mine who is gay and our conversation was in no way towards the entire gay community. It is the last thing that I would ever want to do and I cannot put into words how much I wish I could take back every word," she said in a statement on the Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD) website.

Paris Hilton Criticizes Gay Men

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Television, Rants,

Paris Hilton has branded gay men "disgusting."

The socialite was recorded in a cab in Manhattan, New York City, on September 7 making derogatory marks during a conversation with a homosexual friend and also says she would be "afraid" to be gay in case she "died of AIDS." In the audio, which has been posted on RadarOnline.com, Paris' friend said, "Say I log into Grindr [a gay hook-up app], someone that's on Grindr can be in that building and it tells you all the locations of where they are and you can be like, 'Yo, you wanna f**k?' and he might be on like, the sixth floor."

Paris replies, "Ewww. Eww. To get f***ed? Gay guys are the horniest people in the world. They're disgusting. Dude, most of them probably have AIDS. I would be so scared if I was a gay guy, you might like, die of AIDS."

A spokesperson for the heiress insists her remarks have been taken out of context and, as a "huge supporter" of the gay community, she meant no offense:

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Television, Engagements,

Modern Family star Jesse Tyler Ferguson has gotten engaged. The actor - who plays lawyer Mitchell Pritchett in the hit comedy - proposed to long-term boyfriend Justin Mikita, who happily accepted his romantic offer.

In a video posted on the website for the newly created foundation Tie the Knot, which supports the fight for marriage equality, Jesse said, "It's true, I popped the big Q," to which Justin replies: "I said yes!"

Jesse, 36, and 27-year-old Mikita - who have been dating for nearly two years - hope their union will eventually be considered official everywhere in the United States. They've also teamed up with Tie Bar to create a collection of bowties with all proceeds being donated to various organizations to help gay and lesbian couples receive civil rights.

While Jesse is now engaged, his Modern Family co-star and on-screen boyfriend Eric Stonestreet recently split from his long-term girlfriend.

Modern Family star Eric Stonestreet has split from his long-term girlfriend. The actor - who plays Cameron Tucker in the hit sitcom - and Broadway star Katherine Tokarz decided to end their three-year relationship "a couple of months ago," according to In Touch magazine.

His representative confirmed the split and said he's eager to finding love again, telling the publication, "Eric is happy and looking to date."

Eric - whose Modern Family character raises a little girl, Lily, with his long-term boyfriend Mitchell Pritchatt - and Katherine met in 2009 at a Rock of Ages performance the actress was starring in. However, Eric joked about how she thought he was interested in men before she got to know him: "I kind of always felt like I had to dig myself out of a bit of a hole and let girls know that I'm actually straight. But she was like, 'Oh, I was watching The View and saw that you weren't gay!' ... And we're still together."

Zachary Quinto Wants Children

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Television, Dating, Celebrity Babies,

Zachary Quinto "definitely" wants to have children.

The Star Trek actor - who is dating Glee hunk Jonathan Groff - admits he does not let his sexuality put him off starting a family and is very keen to have kids eventually: "I'm incredibly happy, I'm incredibly lucky. I definitely want kids. I want to share."

Zachary decided to come out in October 2011, and is glad he did so as "no good" could come from him keeping his being gay a secret. "One of the defining conversations that I had with myself was that absolutely no good can come from me staying quiet about my sexuality. Literally, no good can come from it. But if I take the step to make the acknowledgement and be honest, so much good could potentially come from it," he told Out.

The What's My Number? star previously revealed he decided to come out as a gay man after performing in the play Angels in America - which discusses the effect of the AIDS crisis: "Doing that play made me see how fortunate I am to have been born when I was. And to not have to witness the decimation of an entire generation of amazingly talented and otherwise vital men. And at the same time, as a gay man, it made me feel like I - there's still so much work to be done."

Zac Efron Doesn’t Fear Gay Rumors

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Rumors,

Zac Efron refuses to "live in fear" about rumors that he is gay.

The 24-year-old actor - who has previously dated Vanessa Hudgens and Lily Collins - is happy to embrace his gay fanbase and does not worry if people question his own sexuality in the process.

"It's very flattering. After High School Musical and Hairspray, I've always felt embraced by the gay community, and I feel incredibly grateful. I don't like to live in fear about things like rumours and backlash to begin with - that's the way I was raised - but I just can't see what's so wrong about being gay."

Zac also supports gay marriage, because he believes it is important all people who are around him are allowed to be happy. "It's an issue that affects so many people in my life -- a lot of my close friends and some of the most influential people around me. I just want them all to be happy. It would make me so happy to see them able to live their lives and do what they want to do," he told Advocate.
