Forget Karrine and them, there is going to be a new tell-all book on the block.
Similar to Superhead and Carmen Bryan, former MTV producer Terrance Dean (left) has written a tell-all gossip book. The memoir, which is entitled, Hiding in Hip-Hop: Confessions of a Down Low Brother in the Entertainment Industry, will chronicle “the author’s life as a closeted homosexual working in the film and music industry and his relationships with other closeted gays—film stars, rappers, and music producers.” -Radar Online
A spokesperson for Dean said the book will not name names, but added, “Let’s put it this way—you’ll know who they are. It’s a no-holds-barred look at Hollywood and hip-hop and who’s living on the down low.” The book is reportedly going to be released next year.
Oh lawd, I can’t wait until this one comes out!


THAT’S RIGHT, PUT THEIR ASS ON BLAST!!! I’M BUYING THIS BOOK AS CHRISTMAS GIFTS! NASTY ASSES!!!
A blind items book. i want names damnit!!!
I dont think the Rock is gay…He’s seems soo sweet
#173 is such a loser…
Cont’d again…I’m messing up..I know!!
But he might be looking for some easy access a$$ to hook up with in your own backayard. You don’t want him to be too cool.
10. Does he prefer anal sex? Does he immediately j** off when he has you bent over and he seems to have a problem doing that when he’s on top facing you? Does he like to have his salad tossed…does he toss your salad, with the ulterior motivee that you will do the same for him? Does he assume the position quickly…by getting on his knees? This is straight gay.
11. Does he want to nut on your face…does he prefer oral sex to actual intercourse? Is he okay with long periods of not having sex….does he have a headache, not in the mood…too tired? Basically if he’s okay with ya’ll not having sex too often…very suspect!! He’s either cheating with a woman, who’s giving him something you can’t or he’s cheating with a man. This really applies to beautiful women who are good in bed and in a relationship with a man they describe as my ‘bestfriend’, but quiet as kept, they don’t have much sex. They are that ‘beautiful couple’…
12. Does he spend too much time with the guys? Is that always his excuse…which is supposedly a safe way to assure you he’s not with some other chick. If a grown man would rather be up under a bunch of ni**gas 24/7, when he got a fine a$$ female at home and then he’s tired when he get’s home? You better believe somethings not right.
13. Does he talk alot with his hands…does he touch you to express points…does he say the type of stuff you and your girlfriends say to eachother when expressing yourselves? Does he gossip alot…most real dudes don’t gossip.
14. Is he into bright colors…does he take fashion a little to seriously? Beware, he might want more attention than you do….DL men like to be noticed and to draw that energy to them with the right cloths and jewelry. This way they don’t have to make a announcement about how they roll. It’s self explanatory. They are always the sharpest brotha’s in a room…dressing nice does not make you gay. But add this to some of the other factors and it will.
15. Does he seem like he’s always in a state of repentance, seeking God…and doesn’t want to have sex with you. But when you do have sex, it’s not that great….he has a hard time reaching orgasm and he wants to have anal play?
16. Check his drawers for leakage!! If he’s a bottom, chances are his anal will reveal that upon closer inspection and the elasticity might even be worn out. Hence the leakage…when this spinx mucsle is damaged..that’s it…and their anus will look a little inflamed on worn. Might have some scar tissue there. Also they will have a tendency to have gas slip out real easy b/c once again, that muscle that hold things in is not as tight as it used to be. They will not really be able to hold their bowels long…hence, leakage and they will always be quick to use the bathroom or take the risk of having an accident. He might have more than just skid marks in his drawers…he might have a dirt road!!!
17. Does he have a extremely close relationship or neediness towards his mother or grandmother. It’s good if he has a healthy relationship with these women, but a real man knows that at some point that position will be coveted by a wife. The bible even tells you that! Can no one replace his mama?
18. Is his living quarters impeccable, wonderfully decorated…lots of pillows…great art…plants….nice sheets….and linens. Hmmm, he might not need you ladies, his inner b***h got that on lock!
19. Does he like soft movies? You know,the chick flicks……Nip|Tuck….and shows with other obivious DL men?
20. Does he always find ways to ‘strike’ up random conversations with good looking men, using his profession or business as a cover up….check for the business card exchange accompanied with the ‘look’.
21. Does he seem immune to good looking women, and more caught up in himself? Does he look really good, and is with someone who just ‘blends’ in…you know, kinda homely….these type of women are so happy to have a fine a$$ man they will overlook the most obvious of signs.
22. He’s overly freaky? These types usually gravitate towards meeting men online and through chat lines…and are always looking for ‘Whatever type of relationship or encounter’….the nastiest type.
23. A DL brotha knows that most DL brotha’s frequent church (the noon service)…gyms….conventions….
festivals and clubs. Does he make it a point to always be at these places SOLO….he never attends with anyone? Why bring sand to the beach?
24. Does he adore his nieces and nephews…but professes to not want any of his own? Maybe b/c he knows he has no intention of marrying or being tied to a ‘female’ for the rest of his deceptive life.
25. Watch how he sits down…are his legs together? Watch how he sits…period. Big give away, body language is crucia.
26. Watch how he walks…is his butt slightly tooted like Jamime Foxx’s??
27. Does he have effeminate habits: carrying a purse..a organizer that looks like a purse/clutch…does he like scarves…silky clothing….or hat fetish.
28.Does he read GQ, Men’s Fitness…etc, like what Vogue is to die hard fashionista’s.
29. Does he always refer to lady friends as just that, his ‘friend’.
30. Does he find ways to avoid having a long lasting, healty relationship, even though he appears to have everything else.
These are just one of many things that can bust his spot wide open!!!
If you have a gay friend…at some point let that friend test your man, provided that he doesn’t know that you two know eachother.
Watch his interaction with your gay friends.
Check the pages that he views in his email if you can.
All of these things will keep you on top of what’s really up.
You’ve Been Exposed!!!!
OH HELL NO! Some people named Pharrell, not my future ex-husband. Not my baby. I hope he’s not on the DL if he his… OH LAWD, TAKE ME NOW (LOL)!!!!!
Where are people getting this “Chris Brown is gay” thing from? I think that is wrong. The boy is only 17 years old and what are his gay tendencies? Is it the fact that he sings? SMHID
You know I dont really post anymore,but damn Darnell you are one bitter man! Have you been hurt? You are always in a thread women bashing. This has nothing to do with the HIV/AIDS rate. It’s just a possible book that’s coming out so please spare us all of your subliminal heartache and tears damn!!!
After reading these comments,the real question is – Who is not gay?
what has the world come to when we have a war goin on in iraq where our brothas and sisters are being killed left and right hell its goin on here right in the good ol u s of a and instead we got this long thread going on about a tired brotha getting ready to release a book about the closeted men he has slept with over the years….talk about nasty not because its with other men just because its nasty to go around talking about all the people you have slept with with a smile on your face and the sad part about this brotha is the fact that he has a company called black men empowered.i’mmma pray for you brotha
a bunch of people are about to be pissed the hell off, lol
Is it me, or does this guy look like he has AIDS?? Yes i said it, he looks like he has AIDS!
i say chris brown is gay as hell.
when someone get all the bitches since they were like 10 tehn wehen they get in thier teen they seeem to fuck faggots.
^^What sense does that shit make?
Now, I’m not even a Chris Brown fan, but that is CLEARLY hate.
Maybe if you spent a little time offline, you would get the girls too. LOL
@175….If these men are gay there family already know!!! All I’m saying is people are going to be going after there families and putting there names out there! I’m not defending anyone in this situation….but what I am saying is I don’t thrive on other peoples misery so no!!!! I won’t be buying or reading this book!!!!!! I didn’t post how I felt for your sake…..and if that’s how you feel great!!!! More power to you….I don’t comment on these stories to argue with others.
@Ms_Mac1…..You are so right!!!!!! People will support anything and anyone!!!!
DISHING DIRT ON THE AUTHOR!!!!!!!!!!!!! IF YOU’RE GONNA GIVE IT THEN, BE READY TO TAKE IT!
TERRANCE DEAN ON THE DL? LOL Terrance has always been an openly gay man as far as I knew. First He wrote a black mens “self help book” now he’s trying to out an industry that he only skated around with no real position of power or importance. People are so hungry to be famous and in the limelight that they would become a walking contradiction to do so.
I remember the problems Terrance had trying to get his book/mens empowerment off the ground because everyone knew it was a gay organization masking itself as a black mens movement.
I remember The Terrance Dean of the 90′s that was hired as an assistant to a stylist as a favor by a “friend” when he was down on his luck. Terrance stole the clothing from the shoot and moved to L.A. leaving the friend/stylist to answer for the missing cloths.
Terrance has also has a very sorted and “seedy” past as a gay man looking for DOWN LOW brothers to “scratch his itch.” I will save my facts until he releases his book and attempts a media blitz. We can let the media ask him about his past and credentials to write a book of this type……
@177,179,185
Wow, you must be a DLologist. When does vol.1 of your book come out? What is it like a 25 part expose on the black man and a paragraph on the DL black woman, lol. Sis, no disrespect, but if you and women of your generation like you were as thorough in other aspects of womanhood, motherhood, and wifehood as you are with your investigation and speculation tactics, you wouldn’t have to be Sherlock Holmes. Many of today’s women proactively encourage men to “open their minds” and be accepting of alternative lifestyles and it comes back to bite them in the ass in various ways(no pun intended). It’s humorous to see some of these women lose their hair speculating on wh’s gay and “how to spot” a homosexual and then call a heterosexual man “ignorant” when he takes a stance against homosexuality.
I have to say that I am very disappointed in Mr. Terrance Dean. In the late 1990’s, Terrance Dean started a group in NYC entitled “Men’s Empowerment”. http://www.blackmeninamerica.com/dean.htm
This group, which I was a part of, united black men under brotherly love, respect, and strength. He also published a book entitled “Reclaim Your Power! A 30-Day Guide to Hope, Healing and Inspiration for Men of Color. I can not believe the inconsistency of this brother. It sickens me that a brother can go from one extreme to another. I still have hope for us Black Men.
FIRST OF ALL: Terrance Dean was a FREELANCE PRODUCTION ASSISTANT which is a far cry from MTV Producer.
2ND, in the spirit of his book, here’s another tidbit on Mr. Dean:
Mr. Dean wrote a self empowerment book, and must have forgotten to read it because he just relocated back to NY from Detroit Michigan where he was in need of some self empowerment. His lover was physically abusive and dishing out the smack down which led to his return to NY. I guess his lover took the term ” beating it up” to a new level. That must be one fine man to make Terrance relocate and dislocate.
A 265 pound, 6 ft.1 inch man enduring body blows from another grown man because his “thug fetish” tells him that being manhandled has a silver lining. That is the only story Terrance is qualified to tell.
I’m just making the point that those who spew venom had better be ready to be spat back at!
UHHHHH…Your screen name suits you perfectly because you don’t have a clue. Prostitution is one of or the oldest professions. You have got a lot of nerve blaming women for a man’s sexuality. Women being whores or not has absolutely nothing to do with it. Did you actually read that back when you wrote it? Don’t answer that. It was a rhetorical question.
Why is she called superhead, does she give super head?
tyrese
omarion
ray j brandy brother
Ah shit, let the DL brothas run themselves into the ground.
@Love
Stop being mad cause your man is gay!
I mean look at American Idol, so many gay dudes get on that show and want to be singers but would anybody really be all that attracted to their music if they were openly gay (not saying that that is bad), but record companies are gonna make them keep up a STRAIGHT image so they can get female and male fans. So you really won’t know who is gay or who is straight or whatever in the music industry unless they tell you.
cam’ron is going to be in there for sure!
LOL!@#10 Bobby Brown! It’s probley somebody you’d never expect like LL. They said downlow Brothas, just cuz he married don’t mean nothin.
Damn#23 Aint no more men left! You done covered all rappers, sidekicks, Male groups. Damn! R&B singers! There’s already someboby from B2k that’s gay (Raz-B) and Tyler Perry’s no question. But I still think it’s Probley LL. Whatch!
chris brown is definitely gay
CHRIS BROWN IS NOT GAY!!!
My thing is what is it about the same sex that makes them want to have sex. if you are confident you can give a brother a compliment and not be insecure. this gay shit needs to stop…
This ish is off da chain, and i cant wait to see who in the book. Superhead put a lot of people on blast in her book, but i think the way this man outing people gone be crazy. I mean everyone was only “kinda” surprised at the people superhead mentioned, and lucky for her she still alive. But i think this dude might come up missing, cause he might be violating some “DL CODES” lol but i guess all we can do is wait for the book. Dang…. I wonder… do we say rest in peace to dude already? LMAO
Man this is just the tip of the iceburg…the dude at the heart of most of the industry secrets is a nigga named D.Campbell
he gets paid to cover up secret goings on of alot of dudes and chicks in the biz…he on myspace too
http://www.myspace.com/dzlipz
(but you aint hear it from me)
I have a few picks…….Definitely Johnny Gill…He’s known around town as the homo-homewrecker, Edith(Eddie)Murphy, LL Cool J definitely. I have a gay male friend in Cali that dated him for 5 years, Miss Will Smith of course…she’s legendary, but word on the street in Cali is that Will only dates the White gay men….Racist bastard! I wanna say Jim Jones, but I’ll keep yall posted on this one(I’m about to do an internship at his company very soon), Definitely Miss Cam’ron, Method man and Redman…Those 2 girls are also legendary, Miss Jay Z….she’s so real, Neyo, Miss Usher of course, Miss Kanye and Miss John Legend, Seana Combs(Diddy)is legendary, and his ex girlfriend whom Diddy left at the altar, Farnsworth Bently. Miss Busta is legendary too….thats why she lashes out at homos…She hates herself for being gay!
it’s all in the smile if u see a nigga smile all cheesin big then he gay
but seriously y’all posting all of those feminine trait things are stupiod how can tehre be two feminine guys ina gay relationship ONE is going to be more masculine.
as a gay expert some of the ‘gay’ guys u think about are more masculine than your father. remember that one when you are trying to spot the feminine guys out. cause the ones ballin’ and walking with a limp and a hot masculine swagger love the pretty boys’ ass to def real talk.
thats why its called dl, ya stupid fuckers.
you will never know……..
and i can confirm TYLER PERRY is gay.
true fact.
#173 Your azz is suspect for saying that shyt you just typed.(shaking my head)Damn shame no excuse! These men are living a lie and you find that exceptable ?
I DONT UNDERSTAND WHY WE HAVE ALLOWED OURSELVES AS A PEOPLE TO RESORT TO SUCH FOOLISHNESS. WE GIVE OUR INPUT ON ALL THE THINGS THAT WONT CHANGE ANYTHING, BUT WHEN IT COMES TO CREATING A BETTER WORLD WE LOOK TO WHITE PEOPLE AS IF THEY FORCED IN THIS WORLD.
WE ALL HAVE CHOICES TO MAKE. LAST TIME I CHECKED I WASNT GOD AND I AM NOT ONE TO CONDONE SAME SEX RELATIONSHIPS IN ANY FORM BUT THESE PEOPLE HAVE TO DEAL WITH GOD AND NOBODY ELSE
STOP FEEDING INTO THE HYPE OF ALL THIS
I KNOW SOME OF THE PEOPLE ON THOSE LIST PERSONALLY AND I DONT PUT ANYTHING PAST ANYBODY AND WHAT THEY DO IN THEIR ALONE TIME
BUT THIS IS REDICULOUS
THE FACT IM WRITING THIS IS HORRIBLE TO WHAT WE HAVE BECOME
I CAN HAVE A COUPLE OF PICS WITH THE INDUSTRY FACES WRITE A BOOK AND TELL LIES AND MAKE A MILLION DOLLARS
WHO THE HELL WOULDNT COME OUT OF THE CLOSET
I DONT BELIEVE THE LIST AND PERSONALLY BECAUSE I AM IN LA I KNOW ENTERTAINMENT SELLS BUT BE REAL
NOW ALL MY BROTHERS FROM THE HOOD BOIS KNOW I USED TO BE. I WA PUSHING ROCK WHEN I WAS 12 I WAS PULLING STUNTS WHEN I WAS 14. BUT I FOUND SPORTS GOT A SCHOLY AND IMPROVED WHO I AM. I SERVE AN AWESOME GOD. SO INSTEAD HYPING ALL THIS HOW ABOUT PROMOTING NON JUDGMENT
AND SUPERHEAD IS A DISGRACE TO ALL BLACK WOMEN SHE IS A DORMAT FOR EXCUSES AND REPULSIVE RESPONES THAT SOME HVE ALREADY STATED. I PRAY FOR HER SON. I WLL NOT JUDGE HER BUT SHE NEEDS MORE THAN HELP. I WILL NOT BUY ANY OF THEIR BOOKS THEY PROMOTE
HOMOSEXUALITY AND JUDGEMENTAL BEHAVIORA ND I AM PURELY DISGUSTED WITH THE BACL COMMUNITY FOR NEEDING SUCH NEGATIVE ENTERTAINMENT. THAT INCLUDES MYSELF. MAKES ME REALIZE I NEED TO ADJUST SOME OF MY OWN VIEWS.
“are you closer to GOD today than were yesterday”
“TODAY COULD BE YOUR LAST”
THESE ARE MY WORDS BUT MY PUBLICIST IS TYPING SO FORGIVE IF SOMETHINGS ARENT THE WAY I WOULD WRITE. I TOLD HER NO CURSE WORDS(SHE’S CURSING THOUGH)
ALSO TAKE HEAD TO THE EXAMPLE THAT STORY ABOUT RUSSELL SIMMONS WAS A MILLIE VANILIE. THE DUDE WHO WAS WRAPPING WOULDNT EVEN GAY. WE MAKE IT SEEM LIKE THERE IS A REWARD BEING ACCOMPLISHING SOMETHING CAUSE YOU GAY. HE LIED THE WHOLE TIME. WHAT MAKES YOU THINK THIS GUY CANT DO THE SAME.
YOU ACCOMPLISH SOMETHING WHEN YOU COME FROM MY BLOCK AND OWN YOUR OWN HOUSE. YOU ACCOMPLISH SOMETHNG WHEN YOU A BLACK WOMAN AND YOU FIGHT THE STEREO TYPES THAT COME WITH YOU AND MAKE SOMETHING OF YOURSELF RESPECTABLE TO ALL EYES.
ITS CALLED AN ACCOMPLISHMENT CAUSE YOU DONT CHOOSE TO BE THOSE THINGS YOU ARE BORN INTO CIRCUMSTANCE
YOU AINT BORN GAY
GOD MADE YOU IN HIS IMAGE NOT NOTHING CLOSE TO GAY
YOU MIGHT BE FEMININE BUT YOU CHOOSE TO EMBRACE THAT OR NOT
STOP GIVING FOLKS CREDIT FOR BEING BRAVE FOR THINGS THAT REPRESENT NEGATIVITY. THIS BOOK IS NEGATIVE AND NOT POSITIVE
THERE ARE LESSONS TO BE LEARNED FROM IT
LIKE HOW MANY BODY GAURDS SHOULD GAY PERSON HIRE WHEN HE WRITES A BOOK? ONE MORE THAN DEAN HAD!!
LORD FORGIVE ME!!
I can not wait to read this book oh my this is going to mess up some of these wanna gangsterz career, damn you can’t trust nobody, everybody wants to write a book and tell shit but hey there goes the groupie love lol down the drain that is I’m glad I’ve never been into celebs like that but I’m going to read this just as I did confessions and diaries lol lol lol
Terrance Dean is not to
be trusted!
His rent is due and he will say
anything to get paid!
Unfortunately, I know the dude and
he is bitter that no one checks for him.
He speaks with a strong lisp!
His Girlfriend, Gordon Chambers (who looks
like a male Miss Celie) likely put him
up to witting this fiction.
I guess his last self help pamphlet
didn’t sell. I wonder if he’s come
clean about his past.
I’m not saying that any of the
abovementioned is or isn’t gay
but the author intent and
character is very shady.
This book is SOOOO stupid. It’s not doing much but spreading people’s business and making a profit for the author. It’s already hard enough being an openly gay black male in today’s society and especially in our community. Can someone write something positive about it? Just like Superhead, I can’t imagine this book doing much but worsening the reputation of people deemed similar to the authors.
Well Said #72…..
To the crowd of ignorance………why don’t we focus some of this unreleased aggression in kicking some political asses and making changes for ourselves that could impact our future generations and stop worrying about who is Fucking Who, because they’re not fucking you!!!
WHAT about LIL Wayne no one has said him he def. is!!!!!!!!!
it fun living in the usa. all we care about is who f n who
EDDIE MURPHY & JOHNNY GILL …………………
