Anthony Perkins : a miracle . Not even death stopped him from publishing the truth !
And he "decided" after he died, too. I this s 7th grader wrote this.
Not to mention "Salt" Mineo. It sounds like a robot reading from a bad translation.
@@alansafe5 ditto..+ a 5th grader wrote the whole article
this may be the first resurrection since Jesus
Yep, he certainly was a magician
Rock Hudson died on October 2, 1985. He didn’t die in July 1985! There are many more inaccuracies in this video. 🙄
Did he die of AIDS or not,are you disputing that he died from AIDS.
No-rocks Hudson.
Frankly Cary Grant was more complicated and denied being gay. He even went after Chevy Chase for calling him an old fag. It is up to people to determine their sexuality. Both Betsy Drake and Dyan Cannon two of his wives will refute this. I find labeling people who are not here to have a voice appalling.
Cary Grant lived with a man for 12 yrs with compromising photos. At the very least, he was bisexual. I agree he was entitled to privacy. But he signed on to a profession, where people make their livelihood reporting on actors and actresses private lives.
He was bi sexual.
Dame Joan Collins asked Dyan Cannon if her ex Cary Grant was gay and her answer was "Not with me, honey." :)
I find it hard to believe Clark Gable or Spencer Tracy were gay or Cary Grant for that matter .These unproven claims could bring on law suits from their heirs .I wish someone would sue people for millions for making such flimsy claims !
@@judynichols2904 They weren't.
To me, it doesn't matter their sexuality. I watched their movies because of their acting abilities.
This says about Anthony Perkins: “Two years later, a few days after his death…” he decided to come out publicly. I just can’t help but wonder why he waited until after he died? I think it would be hard to make such a large decision when you’re dead. 🤔
Hahaha. Yes, and other good one in this video was Cesar Romero who "starting in 1994, the actor passed away due to bronchitis and pneumonia." So in what year did the actor finish passing away? And there are a bunch more.
Anthony Perkins came out before he passed, this is when someone outed him on his Aid's diagnosis. He told his family before anyone else.
Well said Debbie......lol!
I noticed that too!
Live and let live no body's perfect
Anthony Perkins publicized his health situation a few days after he died? I think you mean he went public with it a few days before he died. Somebody would have had to hold a seance so Perkins could announce his condition after dying from it.
The writing in this piece is atrocious. Many mistakes made by the robot reading the script.
I guess it was meant that his disclosure was made after his death. Poor editing imho
Yes, there was a seance and it was vvvvery frightening. Ooooo Oooooo Ooooooo.....
I guess all the men in Hollywood were gay . This seems a little far fetched .
With all the retired announcers and narrators out there -- who are old enough to know it's NOT "Salt" Mineo -- why don't you hire one of us?
Never heard Say-czar Either. Shrug.
@@WNYXeb777 Or says "Dye-verse instead of deh-verse."
It's a robo-voice, not a real person. The way she said "Salt Ma-neigh-o" though!🤯 👎
That is the point. She should have played it for someone.... such as.... YOU.
It’s probably the same reason they didn’t hire a competent fact-checker. These amazing artists deserved better. mho
Please use a real person that can pronounce the names correctly. I also doubt a couple of these being gay, but one will never know the "real' story since they are not here to defend themselves.
exactly, these AI creatures are hideous!
Right. MiNAYo and SAYsar
Hey, real people get sued. Who is going to take AT to court? LOL
@@TheMidnightBell07 They could sue the producer. They probably are responsible for any production they head.
At age 77 and identifying as gay since childhood, I've been aware of each of these men being gay or bisexual except for Clark Gable. This is the first time I’ve ever heard rumors of Gable being anything but straight. I’m sorry, but I don’t think he belongs on the list. The rest definitely do.
I respectfully Agree with you. He was a well known womanizer.
AND Errol Flynn...
Nope. Clarkie enjoyed many night time assignations with Billy Haines. Billy confided in George Cukor, (also a part of the closeted gay community in the movie biz back then.) Gable was embarrassed when word got around and had Cukor fired from "Gone With The Wind." Strange, isn't it, that Gable's first 3 wives were much older than him, fat and unattractive, but wealthy & well connected with the movers & shakers in Hollywood, back in the day. Very utilitarian relationships! Carole Lombard made snide remarks about Gable not being "hot in the cot." Sounds to me like "the king" of Hollywood was not the authentic male everyone thought he was. His last wife was Kay Spreckles, heiress to the Spreckles sugar fortune.
It's been long rumored that Gable was no stranger to the gay casting couch, but that doesn't have any bearing on his true sexuality, which, by all accounts, was hetero.
Clark had affairs with men to advance his career but he was not a homosexual.
When I was a teenager I was in love with Tyrone Power, I didn't know he was gay. I have a gay son and he is very caring. When I turned 75 he turned up on my doorstep with a huge bunch of flowers and stayed for the weekend. So what you say. I live in Australia and he lives in the USA, not many sons would do that. He's home at the moment and retires this year so hopefully he will come home permanently.
Someday they will decide if homosexuality is a learned behavior psychology or born with it....study issues like transgender biology. It complicates the thinking but helps understand the differences.
Tyrone Power was not gay, do your research, he may have experimented with being bisexual, however l have no facts to confirm this, his affairs were with women, from Sonja Henie to Judy Garland , his much published hot relationship with Lana Turner, at least two of these women terminated pregnancies that were with power, Judy Garland, Lana Turner, there is another l can't recall . Possibly one of his wives ? He was a very loved man, by everyone.
You really should have titled this "some actors that were gay and some we are gonna speculate about..."
You need to fact check. Tyrone Power died relatively young of a heart attack in 1958. Clark Gable died of a heart attack in 1960. Those are two off the top of my head. There were more.
@WinGate Mose Thank you for caring (and your work!) I often think those who ridicule others have their own "secrets". My twin brother was "such" (I am female so fraternal) and he was often beaten, tortured and attacked for being so There is indeed a "third sex" (hormonal influences starting with the embryo - all start out, as you might know as female, hormone this and that creates males or females - (and many variations in between - any advanced book in biolodgy would show this). The brain is one of the last aspects to be so influenced. I have the body of x but the mind of y.
In other societies they are called "third sex" - and have valuable roles to play - Shamons, mystics so on. Even Plato and other historical figures of prominonce spoke of this.
I recall speaking with those in my NYC "scholarship program" AIDS Education and Research (LONG ago) who thought "it was G O D s punishment". AIDS had just broken out at the time and it was a ghastly way to die (with all of the various disease states once the immune system has collasped) not to mention the stigma at the time. (I took care of a young man age 23 - the sweetest person).
I told the other members of the group "be careful, it will hit your communities soon"... and it did.
In Africa now, currently it is rampant within the straight community. It knows no boundaries.
The successful, and life saving Covid19 vaccinations are the direct result of 40+ years of HIV/AIDS antiviral research. God-willing, new and more effective cancer treatments will also come from this science.
@WinGate Mose no surprise .. many hospital workers or even doctors are often bitchy or downright cruel in what they say about their patients. the worse suffering or tormented person is often their source of ridicule
sazure
Tyrone Power doesn't seem to fit the bill? I mean, he had lots and lots of women, almost at an instant, even.
Anthony Perkins had already released public word that he was gay before he died in 1992.
But he always said that his marriage and fatherhood were his two greatest accomplishments.
When his widow, Berry Berenson, was killed in one of the planes hitting the twin towers,
She was still wearing her wedding ring which had a complicated design to it. . .
Fortunately. . .
As that was the only thing left of her that was ever recovered.
That's almost a better story than actors rumored to be gay.
Her plane hit the North Tower
My cousin was one of the 37 PAPD that were killed that day the Towers went down. All they found of him was his service revolver.
@@susanfalconedaquino3623
It was always amazing to me
That so many died
And so very little was found
Of some of them.
@@patriciabajcer8930 that is because of the implosion of the towers, the weight of the buildings and the heat from the burning airplane fuel. The fire burned for weeks in those collapsed buildings. Think about it, those buildings actually survived planes flying into them. The ignition of the airplane fuel burned so hot it made the steel girders become soft and buckle and the rest is history.......
When you call the Nov. 16, 1960 death of Clark Gable as being the "late sixties," I am confident you are wrong about the rest of his life as well.
Thank you! My mouth fell open when they mentioned Clark Gable and the late sixties. False information.
Amen. That's a pathetic mistake to make.
@@jarrodbarkley9061 Everyone knows he died soon after making the Misfits, not in the late 1960's. Was his heart attack cuase he was "gay?" Sorry but I don't believe it!
If Nov. is the 11th month of 1960 and 1961 is only 48 days away...why is it NOT the late 60's?
@@garycephas5753 that would be late 1960, but not late 60s. Late 60s would be approximately 1967-1969.
"Sharing a room with a friend" does not mean that a person is gay. I have shared rooms, even hotel rooms, with friends many times, but I am not gay neither they are.
THANK YOU😊😊😊😊😊
True, my sister and I share hotel rooms and sometimes a bed when we travel to save money. Neither of us is gay, not that that is an issue as I have 2 gay children.
Precisely, When I was a teen girl I spent my weekends at my best friends home and we slept in the same bed doesn't make me a lesbian.
Prove it!
He went to bed with Eva Peron on that trip. Give me a break. His sexuality was very fluid.
For the record, Tyrone Power died on November 15, 1958 ( at the age of 44) was married three times; the time that you cited that he and Cesar Romero shared a hotel room, it was during the time of a goodwill tour throughout South America with a third party where they met, among others, Juan and Evita Peron in Argentina. Not saying he was not Bi-sexual just saying its doubtful
I was going to add a comment about Tyrone Power & Clark Gable but has already been done - but ALOT of mistakes & assumptions I think You're too young and agenda driven to post this type of content. Not fact checked at all....
they want to say everyone in hollywood is gay, to give it more justification - but its lies. good 4 u point it out, ooh but now your a "homophobe" - its CRAZY!
This video is garbage! There are so many Ludacris statements in ths! 👎🏿👎🏽👎🏾👎🏻
Those people aren’t here anymore to defend themselves from rumors.
@@nicklubrino2606 Even if they were ever know a celeb that told everything or the truth??
What about William Haines? He was told to leave his boyfriend or his career in movies would end. He gave up the career & lived with the guy until death. He became an interior designer to the stars.
Yes, I think Joan Crawford was grateful for him helping her in Hollywood, so she had him do all the interior design on her new home & had a huge party where everyone raved over it all & she got him lots of recognition & business. Magazines did photo layouts.
William Haines story on UA-cam is very interesting. He was certainly a gifted man outside of acting. He didn't need Hollywood after all!
My God, did you ever hear of fact-checking or research? You are sorely in need of both. I was going to point out the first (or second, or third) ridiculous mistake, but then it just became too many to keep track of. This thing is a travesty.
It looks like whoever runs this channel just picked a subject and threw a bunch of words together almost randomly within the subject; "oh, this will be a good moneymaker". What a grift! Can't believe they have 77k subscribers!
Your inaccuracy on the facts shows me at least that your credibility in this video is seriously lacking... Will never believe Clark Gable, Marlon Brando were gay!
You noticed.
Truth.
@@bittersweet2253Me either
Oh the magic of Hollywood. Great Actors and Actresses.❤
Don't talk about people who have passed on. They are not here
to defend themselves.❤RIP
Entertainers put themselves in that arena. Why does that make you defensive?
If Clark was bisexual, then he had a lot of internalized homophobia because he wanted a gay director removed from "Gone With the Wind" because of his orientation. Vivien Leigh and Olivia de Havilland continued to visit that director for acting advice.
and suspicious of working with Montgomery Clift ....
The director was George Cukor and he directed many famous movies despite being fired from "Gone With the Wind"..
@@jonhinson5701 The "women's director" which is a kind of back handed compliment.
But, that makes sense.
Gable had nothing to do with Cukor being replaces, Cukor and Selznick had competing visions for GWTW since it was Selznick's picture clearly he wasn't getting the boot, If Gable were a homophobe why would he agree to work with openly gay director John Ford on Mogambo. Leigh and de Havilland going to Cukor for attention has nothing to do with Gable, Speaking of Leigh she said Gable was the idle co-worker and did everything he could to help everyone, She said Gable was practically the glue that kept that cast together and he lifted everyone up when they were feeling down.
Where is William Haines the leading actor of the 1930s who walked away from Hollywood rather than leave his boyfriend when ordered to.
How about Charles Laughton?
@WinGate Mose Carole Lombard was the first star to have her house totally redone by Billy Haines. She got him most of his work. She is famous for the length of time the interior design took and had a huge Hollywood party to show it off. She then took EVERYTHING out of her house the day before they arrived for the party and told her guests.'It is perfect. He is the most talented person ever....but if you want to see it. You will have to hire him"...He got so much work through her.
good one forgot about that
William Haines wasn't hiding the fact that he was gay. Everyone in Hollywood knew it.
"Starting in 1994 the star (Romero) died..." Dear doG, how long did it take him??
Once you catch on to the idiotic 'writing' in this narration, it becomes a laugh-fest.
9:32 "He married a woman only once". 😅 Just like me. Still with my wife after 31 years.
Shame that Brando had a very livid something. What a translation.
Nice جميل
how many times was he supposed to marry her??
@@LouieManza You are in need of a sense of humor, and possibly help of the mind.
@@LouieManza I SUSPECT YOU ARE AS GAY AS LIBERACE!!
I’m fascinated to learn that Anthony Perkins announced that he was gay two days after his death, as this video tells us.
And I remember Salt Mineo, the forgotten brother of Pepper Mineo.
Tee hee!
😂
Now that’s acting!
Tyrone Power was not bi-sexual or gay--he died at age 44 of a heart attack (he was a five pack a day smoker) and he had served in World War Two in the Marine Corp. Because he was friends of Cesar Romero (and dozens of other) gay actors doesn't make him gay. He was married three times and had affairs with Judy Garland, Lana Turner and many actresses of his day.
Oh, he was a Marine? Well then he couldn't have been gay or bi, lol.
But he was caught in a hotel room with Sonny Tufts
He was caught "in flagrant delicto" with another man by Judy Garland, his supposed love interest at the time.
Thank You couldn't have said it better.
@@truthwarrior2149 your point being? You don't know what happened behind closed doors. And as a matter of fact what does it matter? We are not interested in his sexuality only, we are only interested in what a fine actor he was. And cute too!!!!
"...a few days after his death, the actor decided to publicise his health situation." Right. This is not just gossip but badly written gossip
So.what.if.they.were.gay?--you.have.one.life.you.have.to.live.it.for.yourself.---but.i.understand.it.was.a.much.difFrant.time.then.!!
Talk about research: Gable died in 1960 & Power 2 years before that.
filming the movie Misfits with Marylin Monroe , died of heart attack they blamed Marylin for his death ,
May they all rest in peace. I thank them for all their excellent work. They were the brightest stars ever. None have ever shown brighter.
Their sexuality should NOT be part of their celebrity or acting resume
They were human beings who gave the world a lot of pleasure by watching them ACT OUT PARTS , CHARACTERS , not themselves
And the most charismatic and Beautiful! I love those men, and i am straight..
The majority is false what they say can be doubtful but from saying to doing goes a long way what if they were very narcissistic ok
The one who was official was Rock Hudson and I say this because my grandfather was a camera assistant and he knew all the gossip of that time.
Exactly 👏🙌👍
You are absolutely right ! On the screen they were great ,a job acting in private none of my business 🤬🤔👺😵
I use to live in a house at 3092 Laurel Canyon Blvd. which is haunted by Ramon Novarro's spirit. He was murdered in the house next door, and the home I lived in use to be part of that property but was later subdivided. My roommate and I got use to the strange occurrences in the home as he was not an evil spirit.
You are speaking pure rubbish
My grandmother used to tell me about movie stars from the early 20th century. I believe Ramon Navarro was quite a heartthrob and was stabbed to death.
Cool story bro
Indeed.
Brrrrr
My Grandmother was a housekeeper for Jim Neighbors. Such an incredibly talented man.
For many years, rumors persisted that Rock Hudson and Jim Neighbors were a couple. A friend of both told me in the 1970s, that both were gay, but that their relationship was solely a friendship.
@@NMLogue Jim Nabors!
I didn’t see Jim Neighbors in this video. I was expecting to. Did I miss something?
@Lisa Mathis Wait a moment here. Am I reading this right? Jim Nabors and Rock Hudson were married??
Jim Nabors had a partner and then husband for over 40 years that’s a long time for gay relationships
Clark Gable died in 1960 of a heart attack at the age of 59, not the late 1960's.
Your right he die already after « The Misfits »he didn’t saw the movie he dies before the movie came out
Was u there!!!
And, he was not bisexual.
Clark Gable was all man. But did he have to do favors for powerful movie people? I don't know I was not there.
But even if he did, that does not make him Gay and the title of your piece is 18 Famous Gay Stars of Old Hollywood.
So under that premise I ask that you remove Clark Gables name from your list.
Other than that your list is surprisingly accurate.
It amazes me how people accuse so many men (and women) of being gay. Allow people to control their own business and sexuality.
I don't know why they must keep trying to destroy their personal lives by disgusting their sexual preference. It's too bad this only hurt these actors/actresses.
@@angelacarleton9575 Mentioning that someone is gay is destroying their life? Why?
Ricardo,
I am assuming you are referring to present day and not the times they lived?
@@mananimal3644 The "problem" is YESTERDAY, TODAY, TOMORROW AND ALWAYS.
Ricardo,
You just revealed your young age.
To come out during during the times of these celebrities meant prison time, the loss of your job, military standing,housing, and children without any legal protection. In England you would be chemically castrated. The international medical community defined homosexuality as a deviancy.
So yes. There is a deference between the time we live and the time they lived.
How did Anthony Perkins publish his health situation two years after his death?
Yeah, that alone made the whole thing a joke, along with the co-pilot in the tragic James Dean wreck
I guess from Heaven? He was sitting around a celestial patio with Hitchcock, Lew Wasserman and St. Peter. They were all eating Chasen's chili! 🤔
Yeah, I heard that too. This report is more fiction than fact.
Exatcly! All these people he's talking about never admitted to anything about being gay! Please! It would have been the end of their career! And by the way, no one can prove some of them were gay! But they will say it is to prove what they believe
With "spirit"...
Danny Kaye was also rumoured to be gay. My godfather was his cousin, and there were family rumours about a possible liaison with Tyrone Power. In many cases, it is hard to know for sure, and it is sad that people had to conceal who they really were because of their industry and the times.
Katherine Hepburn was bisexual, And she knew about Spencer Tracy's homosexuality And she protected him
She was not and Tracy was not gay🤭🤭🤭!!!
Hepburn und Tracy waren ein Liebespaar 🤗🇩🇪
These computer generated audio fails never cease to annoy me.
Especially when they say things like "Salt Minayo". All other errors in text are also kept in the voice version.
Though some may find LGBTQ offensive, it's not half as offensive as the darn computer narration.
Maybe, just maybe the dialogue is AI generated. Can you not tell everything is short phrases without infliction. While a ‘travesty’ nothing to fret about.
Sal, not Salt. That's when I stopped watching it. If the scriptwriter was careless enough to get names wrong, everything else is suspect.
It is a computer generated voice, didn't even pronounce his last name correctly. I assume the individual is non English speaking. Got all kinds of things wrong i.e. Tracy and Hepburn were together for 26 years, he didn't get a divorce from his wife because she was a devout Catholic.
@@Gloria-ro4vn And he died first

most of these guys were no different than a lot today. they forgot Mr. Flynn he had sex with everyone.
Tyrone Power did not die in 1985. He passed away while filming in Spain during a sword fighting scene in 1958.
THE MISSPELLINGS, MISPRONUNCIATIONS AND MISINFORMATION ARE MADDENING!
This is so full of rumor, innuendo, speculation and flat out lies. It is a real disservice to those gay and lesbian stars who struggled silently for years but became successful anyway. This is a who’s who of nonsense for the most part.
Wich ones are lies? I knew of all of them beeing gay or at least bisexual.
@DAVID BERMAN keep on telling yourself that. To close to home?
@DAVID BERMAN wow. reading your reaction - big time closet case.... Best of luck to you....
TYRON POWER NO MURIO EN 1985,MURIO EN MADRID RODANDO SALOMÓN Y LA REINA DE SABA,FALLECIO EN EL HALL DEL HOTEL DE LA CAPITAL DE ESPAÑA,EL 15 DE NOVIEMBRE DE 1958, QEPD,,
Wow.... your reaction is revelatory.... you should specify which of the names mentioned are all “rumor, innuendo and speculation”....
Tyrone Powers date of death is incorrect. Actual date was November 15, 1958 in Madrid, Spain. While filming a movie he had a heart attack.
Tyrone Power was filming Solomon and Sheba when he had his heart attack. The film was almost completed and the endings required close ups of his face. They had to do the whole film over replacing Tyrone with Yul Brynner.
@@HelenETSmith-fx2dv They kept a few back-of-the-head and distant shots. Power is listed as "Solomon (uncredited)" on IMDB. Yul Brynner grew his hair out for the role.
Poorly written, poorly researched, with lots of factual errors. Some of these people are well-known to be gay, the others I'd take with a grain of salt. Maybe they're gay, maybe not. This author treats rumors as if they're facts.
Good point. The writer/researcher here is just pushing an agenda with little to no facts and their own personal opinions. Very sad.
The main question should be raised as....who cares?
@WinGate Mose Clark was a well known and well sought after male prostitute' back in the 1930's. the real reason he had George Cukor fired from gone with the Wind. was that Cukor paid for his services and the idea of him being around or trying to get some free stuff from clark made him uncomfortable so he had him gotten rid of. cuckor came from that hollywood era where dozens of "pretty studs' were often paid to attend parties. so many up and coming studs posed for nude photographs an d even did movies for private men
With a grain of salt? Is that a grain of Salt Mineo? Lol. Did you catch that one? Haha. Very poorly researched. Clark Gable for one wasn't gay. There were rumors he did the gay for pay thing but who knows
@@thomasdelvin3683 that was only ever a rumor. That was never confirmed and the rumor always suggested he only did it for money and not that he was actually gay. I personally don't care if he was gay but I don't actually believe he was. There are not absolute facts
This is so hard to believe. All of these men were great actors and very handsome. What they did or did not do in their private life, it's their business. Let's just remember them for their gre a t performances.
Don’t believe most of it
To say that Cary grant left his mark in Hollywood by being in the movie, Monkey Business s ridiculous. Yes, he was in that movie and he probably had fun making it but that was not the highlight. He started his film career in a Mae West movie. It was uphill from there.
And the Mae West was great!

It breaks my heart that these Men ( and Women as well ) were unable to share their joy and happiness with the world when in love and had to feel ashamed and lonely when they were frightened and sick. No one should have to hide any emotions and no one has the right to judge another. May AIDS one day be cured as so many other deadly diseases have been. In a world that can be so cruel and hard, love is something that should be celebrated 🌻
Who on this list did actually have this experience? I guess no one
Republicans would like nothing more than to keep this hate agenda going
Clark Gable's "love of his life" was Carole Lombard, his 3rd wife. Clark died in the late 1950's, not the 1960's, at age 59 due to his excessive life of heavy smoking and a lot of alcohol abuse. There was always a rumor that in the 1920's, he allowed a gay agent to have his way with him to get a part as an extra in a movie. His real career started in 1931 when MGM gave him a contract, audiences couldn't take their eyes off of him and he became a full fledged leading man within two years and won an Oscar.
Actually, Clark died Nov 16, 1960.
1960 , after ,"The Misfits" .
Tracy was hardly gay. In fact he made it a point to try an have affairs with his women co-stars. Irene Dunne complained about that when they were making the movie a Guy Name Joe, in 1943
@Fred Homeyer Tracy did not make a big show of it. In fact, Irene Dunne's statement did not come out until she wrote her memoirs.
@Fred Homeyer Bearding for each other. I NEVER believed that it was a sexual love affair. I'm sure they bonded over their mutual homosexuality a d were quite fond of each other. Tracy rather be thought an adulterer, as a staunch Catholic, yet(!!!), than gay.
Sorry. Read Scotty Bowers' book. It all makes sense. His amicable divorce from Louise, his totally bogus "romance" with gay Katharine Hepburn, etc.
@@nadyarossi5102What "amicable divorce"? They were still married at the time of his death!
Big affair with Loretta Young
Marlon Brando apparently had a "very livid something"....... I shudder to think what on earth that might mean!!!
Hahahaha😆
A lot of laughs because of the atrocious writing. "Starting in 1994, the actor died..." or: "his performances and plays used to give people talk". Yes, I should hope so. Beware, Brando had a "very livid something". And, Brandon "did not limit himself to absolutely anything". Ouch. And the grand finale: "The lives of these Hollywood legends causes of date serve us today as a reminder... did not really cause any harm." Ummm, Rock Hudson , knowing he had aids, reportedly had as many lovers as he could near the end with little regard for spreading the disease. Whatever. This sometimes sounds as if it was interpreted by the decoding machine in "Mars Attacks".... " for dark is the suede that mows like a harvest."
love Mars Attacks!!
Ha! Well stated. I may just have to watch this whenever I need a few laughs.
Spencer Tracy remained with Katherine Hepburn until her death. How fortunate for Hepburn, who died in 2003 and Tracey in 1967. What a couple they made.
Like the ridiculous captioning on Zoom sometimes. Once it said one of my coworkers went to talk to his "coven." I saw him afterwards and asked him what his friends at his Catholic church would think about him being a warlock. 🤣
Tyrone Power e Clark Gable, não acredito que eram gays, de jeito nenhum!
Well said Brazil.
The use of the words “confess their sexuality” implies is a crime. ...A better word that carries no shame or crime is “disclose” their sexuality.

Yes. But not technically a "Hollywood" star. He worked pretty much exclusively in the UK and on the continent.

My mouth was open on all of these actors . I had no idea that these leading men /actors were gay. I knew of Rock Hudson but all the others ! I'm truly shocked. Oh if my Mom were alive she'd have so much to say.
Tab Hunter and Dirk Bogarde revealed to be very attracted by anothers good looking men. Tab was 35 years together with his beloved Male Sweetheart.
Tom Cruise/John Travolta.
Anthony Perkins had a son he was in Legally Blonde,it’s really sad that there was so much stigma back then that actors had to hide their sexuality ..
Too bad there's so much stigma now that people can't just be openly bisexual,
without being accused of being closeted & 100% gay.
@@thekashreview214 people's beliefs about most things are behind nothing other than hear-say, they're not behind any independent thinking or first-hand experience. as far as I'm concerned sex is sex.
@@frankpaya690 this is late but he literally went to conversion therapy to try and cure his homosexuality, idk why y’all keep doing this quit labeling men who are homosexual as actually being bi. If he was bi he wouldn’t have went to conversion therapy in the first place.
@@GN.24.7I think in Perkins case, gay is actually closer to the truth. He might have married a woman at age 39, but he continued to have affairs with men. I think he married Beryl to prove something to himself but it wasn't something he truly wanted.
The constant mispronunciation of people's names in this video made me crazy. I thought at first that it was a machine generated voice but I don't think so. Whoever it was massacred Cesar Romero and Sal Mineo in a couple of other names. If you don't know how to pronounce something before you read it you should probably ask someone how it's pronounced
It's definitely computer generated. It's voice sampling. That's why it sounds....sorta...real.
I get that this was a different era with different views, but this list relies too heavily on rumor. Unless a person confirms their sexuality, I don't think it's appropriate to act as if rumor is fact. Especially if said person is dead.
I have doubts on a few of these, but there are plenty more who were known or widely rumored to be gay...Helmut Dantine, Richard Cromwell, Charles Laughton, Raymond Burr, Grant Williams, Tom Tryon, George Nader, Marlon Brando, James Dean, Kerwin Mathews, list goes on and on.
MARLON WAS BI. RAYMOND WAS GAY
Raymond Burr was mentioned. Neither Tracy nor Hepburn were gay. They stayed together until the date of HIS death. 6-10-67.
@@markcadieux3445 sorry, but KATE HEPBURN and SPENCE TRACY didn't even like each other. The studios said they were a couple to help boths careers. I know for a fact that a strong woman, before her time , like KATE, wouldn't have candy assed around and waited for a man like Tracy, and SPENCE would have left his wife, Catholic or not. They had same sex partners all along, though Spence always drank and said 'oops, what did I do now?!' as he never accepted his sexuality. Kate was bad skinned and not as cute without makeup, never had beau's AFTER she left early life hubby, since she realized she didn't want to be wed to a man, and wanted a career.
She just smacks of lesbian, and the only other early slacks wearing actress from back then, was MARLENA DIETRICH, was also at least bi sexual, if not gay.
Just accept it or not, they lied to preserve their popularity!
Some of those people were gay and some bi. This ridiculous clip makes no distinction. Also a lot of it is untrue
Actually Vincent Price's daughter said that he was bisexual not gay
Same diff.
What does it matter, Vincent Price was my most favorite actor since I saw him in a drama made in the 30s. Growing up it doesn't matter what his sexuality was. All I know is that he was the best and to me he still is. The man died with dignity leave it at that and this goes to the rest of them!!
Such great memories of such great actors, may they all R.I.P
I remember the actor SALT Mineo so well.
😂
And some idiot commented he had a younger brother Pepper..lol..😅😅😭
I swear when I saw that I almost peed my pants I laughed so hard! 🤣
Liked his acting
I question your findings on Gable and Tracy. It must be nice to state as fact something when the people you are discussing died 50 to 60 years ago. Also Betsy Drake who was married to Cary Grant stated unequivocally that he was not gay.
I think she signed a non disclosure.
Clark Gable was madly in love with Carol Lombarde. When she died in plane wreck, he joined the military and tried his best to join Carol. He survived and married and had at least one child after this, but was never the same. Stop pushing your agenda with made up nonsense.
Why does it matter, what consenting adults do behind close doors? I for one thank them for their talent, and bringing so many characters to life. BTW - PLEASE PRONOUNCE THEIR NAMES CORRECTLY
“Everybody affirms that he was an extremely sociable person with whom you could have conversations of all kinds and never get tired” - lol!
Right, a ridiculous tribute!

Tyrone Power died in the late 50s not the 80s I should know, my mother was a super big fan of his, and saw to it that I watched every movie he made with her...may they both rest in peace.
As a gay teen, I would never dream in the 70's that he was gay, if I had known he certainly would have filled my adolescent fantasies cause I found him super cute already back then:-). Yes, the web says he died a year and a couple of months before I was born, in Nov 1958, of a 'fulminant angina pectoris'. His son, born after his untimely demise, is still a handsome, mature guy on his early sixties (he was born one year before me) :en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tyrone_Power_Jr.
One of his daughters, Taryn, was truly beautiful too but sadly has already passed away:

There are a few wrong facts here. This makes not to believe the rest of información.
@@marthadelcastillo2551 Well, I must confess that, having too many readings to make and videos to watch on utterly different subjects and areas, I'm grateful for these short, easy-to-watch videos we can enjoy on a break of those activities which require more concentration.
If there's a need to research into some more depth so as to share a link or post about some celebrity's connection with any of the causes I defend, I do look for more reliable sources.
However, I guess most of the young generation in the so-called large public are hardly interested in such details and I can say I think it's already something if they dedicate even if just a few minutes of their hurried lives, overloaded with internet info from all conceivable outlets, to learn a bit about these celebs from the past!
My Moms fave actor 2:)
Tyrone power wasn't gay are you fucked in the head
I was recently at a movies sitting behind a lady.A scene came on were to guys started kissing on the lips.She instantly turned her head and jumped up and left the building.
Good
Who really cares what their personal life consisted of, good, bad, right, wrong, for live and let live for everyone is a good thing. They gave us fans many memorable acting performances, so in my book, that's good enough.
I really do NOT think Clark Gable was at all gay.
Me too, but I can imagine that he sold his a.... for his career like lots of them.
That's because he wasn't a gay. He may have fooled around once when he was younger, but he wasn't gay. He liked women too much
@@migue4793 Neither was Spencer Tracy, he was with Katherine Hepburn for 26 years, his wife was a devout Catholic.
@@Gloria-ro4vn The claim that he and Hepburn were gay is based on an unsupported memoir by a guy named Scotty Bowers. He was a player in the Hollywood party scene and sexual underground in the fifties and sixties. He was a well known figure and liked to tell stories of his adventures as a hustler and procurer as well as gossip about movie industry celebrities. He didn't go public with his tales until long after the people he spoke about were dead, so we'll likely never know exactly how much was fact and how much fiction.
The main problem with the Tracy-Hepburn tale is that in order to believe it, you'd have to believe that Hepburn not only lied about their relationship while Tracy was alive but kept it up for decades after his death. Long after it had ceased to serve any purpose whatever. She died in 2003. This hardly seems likely, given what's known about her disregard for convention and her reputation for frankness.
I don't think Clark was gay. It was more a case of being willing to do what was needed/asked to get a step up and not caring the sex of the person he needed to impress. Early cinema had a casting couch too. It was just easier to hide it back then.
Some were gay, some seem to be rumors. Some people "say" is not proof people were gay.
They were such good looking men.. Living at the period where Gays were condemned... It's sad but they were talented and living in miseries ...God rest their souls.

Salt Mineo instead of "Sal". How accurate can this list be? If the family of Cary Grant says he is not gay, then let it rest. Clark Gable? Are you kidding me? He even fathered a love child with Loretta Young. That was his secret, not that he was gay.
All these male actors in my opinion should be admired for there courage & their talents! They all helped out gay people, although some paid the price with their life 😢😮 . With their help, now gay men can live a more freer life, thanks to these brave & courageous actor's!!!!😢😮
The writing and narration of this item is truly abysmal. In addition to numerous misspellings, mispronunciations and grammatical gaffes there are also facts that are misstated and conclusions that are drawn without supporting evidence.
Salt Mineo? God, someone please take the time to put these things together in a thoughtful way - the robot voice and not-checked facts don't pay ANY proper tribute to these important folks...
This is yet one more program where the narration mispronounces the names of the stars listed in it. If no one checks to insures the names are correct it makes one wonder how many of the other facts in this program are incorrect.
It's a computerized voice, isn't it?
We know who they are
“…a few days after his death, the actor decided to publicize his health situation.” Someone tell me how a person decides anything after their death.
You have just put everyone in Hollywood through the Shredder including their heart's.
You say these things when the actors are dead and cannot defend themselves. I have serious doubts on some of them. Sal Mineo would have never been openly gay in the 50s and 60s; it would have been the death of his career.
Patmos revelation dont be so naive their was gay people all the way back to ancient greece they just hided their sexuality better back then and blended in with society .
ABSOLUTELY!!!
It did come out and it was the death of him.
The bigger question is why you think everyone was heterosexual and why it bothers you that they weren’t?

I just don't understand the obsession with who's gay and who's not. At the end of the day it's really NOBODY'S BUSINESS.
A blast from the past. At 76 years of age I watched many of these stars in movies and recognised most as part of we now acknowledge as our LGBTIQ + community. I often and still do feel so sad that they did not always have the happiest of lives.
Thank goodness we have more understanding about gender issues these days. I have several grandchildren who are part of the LGBTIQ + community and I love them dearly. 😊
May they all Rest in peace.❤️ ❤️ ❤️ Cary Grant, ....Tyrone died in 1958 not in 1985, I wonder that Elvis was not gay.....😂😂

No......... the Bible says one has no change of pleading for salvation after they have stopped breathing. No Purgatory or even asking Jesus to forgive them after death that can't ever be done......, they always have to make that decision before death not after. otherwise Jesus shouldn't have died on the cross, Purgatory is only listed in the Catholic Bible, one can't suffer your way into heaven, or do penance here on earth to help yourself or others get to Heaven, because that does away with the need for Jesus dying for our sins, dying on the cross. that is the whole teaching of the New Testament all about or need for Jesus to get us to Heaven .
Trusting in Jesus is our only way to Heaven.
And when Jesus will return, the pious will be the first ones to resurrect for resurrection of life, while the others will go through resurrection of judgment or damnation
How could tracy be with hepburn until her death when he died first?
Not just first but decades prior.
🥳 Facts!
He was her mummy for over a decade. Don't you remember that scandal?
There are a couple of mistakes. Clark Gable did not die in the late 60s. He died in 1960. Tyrone Power did not die in 1985 but in 1958, 27 years before...
A COUPLE of mistakes??? Not a math major, were you?
Young lady Clark Gable died in 1960, around the time he was making his last movie The Misfits which he co-starred with Marilyn Monroe and would ironically be her last film too. Meaning her last completed one. She died during the filiming of Something's Got To Give 1962.
I have to question some of the claims made here. Is bisexuality and "gay" the same thing? I've been told it isn't, but since I'm neither, I don't know. But I question the LGBTQ community making such assumptions. My other problem with this is many of the people were only rumored to be gay. Could be, might not be. But again, the LGBTQ community seems to want to claim them to be their own. I have my doubts. But what do I know? When the family of one of them deny the "star" is gay and try to clear his name, that should suffice. But the maker of this film seems to know more about the person than the family...it seems. I have my doubts.
You are sooooooooo right!!!
Sad but true, We could be a more tolerant society and maybe just maybe some of the people we love here would be around today.
I would be very careful about listening to this because some of those actors in the rumors that were told are simply not true and to tag a person with that kind of tag that they were gay when they were not is very hurtful to their families that is very slanderous and wrong
Minister Kaario
You may wish to look up the legal definition of slander. "Hurtful to others" as you state is not grounds for slander regardless of another's relationship to a deceased individual if they are not implicated by NAME in the slanderous act! And to the best of my recollection only deceased persons involved in the acts were mentioned by NAME in the video.
Concerning your insinuation of it being wrong...YOU ARE WRONG in the legal sense! Unethical, atrocious, disgusting, perhaps...but still legal. And please note...I have not once stated that I agreed with nor supported such actions. I only am being as objective as possible in the legal realm. The fact that you and I may not approve of something or other does not make it WRONG...we merely object. In such a case we would be rendering an 'opinion'.
