BLIND ITEM: HIS MAN ISN’T FAR BEHIND

Monday, July 16, 2007

A few years ago, a source told me she grew up with this renowned black male celebrity. It was so much drama is his childhood, he often stayed at her family’s house. They fed and clothed him. His family was so dysfunctional, they only came looking for him once.

After he became famous, they lost touch but when he returned to their hometown for an engagement, her whole family went to welcome him home with open arms.

The reunion didn’t go as expected, he snubbed them and told them he didn’t want to remember anything or anyone from his past. He left them standing there with their mouths open as he got into his limo and took off.

Fast Forward:
Rumors have always circulated that this man has ordered up male escorts on occasion but he continues to deny gay rumors regarding his lifestyle.

We were recently informed that this man is now having a very discreet and secretive relationship with a professional athlete. They both are very careful because they both have a lot to lose.

Our celebrity has dated famous women and he uses them as “beards,” while his athlete stands in the shadows.

Whenever you see one of them, the other is not far behind, regardless of city.

Hints: He’s not a actor, singer, rapper, model or athlete. And, he’s extremely popular and well known in the black community.

NOTE: All blind items are written by Myra Panache or her staff. No, I do not know what the answer is - after all it is called a ‘Blind Item’. These items are posted for entertainment purposes. Please don’t email me asking for the answer because your email will be promptly deleted.

i find it disappointing that there are people in this world who believe that just because a person in the black community is not an entertainer or an athlete that “they ain’t shit”

I’m convinced that Myra makes all of this blind item shit up. Think about it…there is NO man extremely popular and well known in the black community, who’s not an entertainer or athlete, that continues to deny gay rumors.

#10 I feel like them and it is not that just because a person in the black community is not an entertainer or an athlete that “they aren’t shit” but politician, political issue (just to through that in for example) it not an attention getter for some people.

PLS NOT TYLER!

I IMMEDIATELY THOUGHT OF TYLER PERRY!, MY MOM LIVES IN ATL, AND SHE SAID HIS WHOLE ENTOURAGE ARE MADE UP AND GAY MEN AND LESBIAN WOMEN. IN FACT, HIS RIGHT HAND MAN, IS A LESBIAN WOMAN!, YUCK!

I heard of Dr.Ian Smith and Michael Strahan(New York Giants DE) having a DL relationship. So my guess is Ian Smith.

He is not an actor,singer,rapper,model or athlete hmmmm I know it’s not Obama

Tyson Beckford with the gay athlete being Derek Jeter but the item suggess he’s not a model. For those who don’t known Tyson and Jeter have been seen numerous times in night spots together and on NYC streets.

My 2nd guess wa Tyler Perry but he is an actor not just a film developer and he has never been linked to famous women as the item suggests.

26.

mzsweetface

Monday, July 16, 2007 /

Tyler Perry?

27.

Iyse

Monday, July 16, 2007 /

Dr. Ian Smith, Tigger and Katt Williams may fit the profile, but they are not RENOWNED celebs as the item suggests and have never dated famous celebs or “beards”.

28.

@#25,TYLER WAS LINKED TO TYRA BANKS ONCE…

29.

Ian Smith- because of the rumors of him being “with” Micheal Strahan (NFL player)

I hope not…but it does sound like Tyler Perry, because of the dysfunctional family past. But Tyler openly talks about his Dad and the experiences of his past so how could he not want to be reminded of his past when he does speak about it? On Fathers day, he sent out emails to everyone on his mailing list talking about his Dad, so it may just NOT be Tyler.

I’m going to go with Ian Smith.

Tavis….good one. Dayyyyyaaaam. I don’t think it’s Ian because who has he dated that’s famous?

33.

MISSMELODIE

Monday, July 16, 2007 /

@31,

He’s the doctor on Celebrity Fit Club that comes on VH1.

But now that I think about it, maybe it’s not Ian because what famous women has he ever dated?

Tyler was rumored to have dated Tyra Banks, Tracee Ellis Ross, Gayle King and Tosha Smith (the crazy momma from Daddy’s Little Girls). But Tyler might be too easy to guess, it’s probally someone else! This is a tricky one!

TYLER PERRY (BECAUSE TYLER PERRY DID GROW UP IN A VERY DYFUNCTUNAL HOME, HE TALKED ABOUT IT IN HIS ARTICLE IN VIBE MAGAZINE A FEW YEARS BACK). AND HE IS NOT, NONE OF THE ABOVE LISTED PROFESSIONS, BUT YOU KNOW ABOUT EVERYONE YOU KNOWS HAS ONE OF THOSE DAMN MADEA DVDS’.

So I conclude it’s Tyler Perry.

I usually don’t do these “Blind Items” but this one is easy. The celeb is Tyler Perry and athlete is Laveranues Coles.

The below NY Times article and sports forum talks of the “drama” in both their childhoods and how they bonded.

http://www.nytimes.com/20...artner=rssnyt&emc=rss

http://www.outsports.com/...c=37373&mode=threaded

Hints in the “Blind Item”:
engagement = “Why Did I Get Married”
reunion = “Madea’s Class Reunion”
family/reunion = “Madea’s Family Reunion”

I’m good a crossword puzzles too. :)

39.

EZElmo

Monday, July 16, 2007 /

By the way…..the last two paragraphs on the NYTimes article is the key.

And he is stepping out. Whereas in previous years Coles spent the bye week holed up in his house, he spent part of last weekend, when the Jets were off, in Las Vegas with Perry, attending the welterweight championship bout between Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Carlos Baldomir.

“I absolutely see the change in him,” Perry said. “He’s so much lighter. I think he’s all-around a happier person.”

Perry has suggested that Coles keep a journal, and Coles has gone so far as to buy one. But so far, the pages remain blank. Who needs a journal when people surround his locker every day, waiting to record his thoughts? “It’s exciting,” Coles said. “It’s like a whole other world when I walk in here now.”

Entire article is below.

Lord, please forgive Miss Vivica Fox for jacking-up her beautiful face. Obviously, she did not realize her own natural beauty. Otherwise, she would not have not have mutilated herself in this manner. And please Lord, revoke the medical license of the plastic surgeon who committed malpractice on Miss Fox’s face. I bind the spirit of self-hate over the lives of black celebrities right now in the name of Jesus.

HMM WELL THIS ONE IS TRICKY WELL WE ALL THINK IT’S TP BUT THAT DOES NOT CORESPOND WITH WHAT THE BLIND ITEM STATES. CAUSE I GOOGLED TP AND HE IS KNOWN AS A ACTOR, SCREEN WRITER AND SO ON.
PLUS HE DOESN’T SEEM LIKE THE TYPE OF PERSON TO SHUN AWAY PPL THAT HAVE HELPED HIM. DAYUM HE IS MORE LIKELY TO REPAY THEM BY GIVING THEM MONEY FOR THEIR KINDNESS. PLUS HE TALKS OPENLY ABOUT HIS BAD CHILDHOOD……………..
HMMM… WHO EVER IT MAY BE WE GON FIND OUT UR IDENTITY SOONER OR LATER. IT’S JUST A MATTER OF TIME

After reading the other comments, I’m changing the athelete guess to L. Coles. What’s so funny is I went to middle school with Laverneous (Ribault Middle in Jacksonville, FL) and never knew that about him. Damn, it just goes to show you, you never know. This is still Tyler all the way. You have to be deaf, dumb and blind not to see the sugar in Tyler’s tank.

If we truly knew the dark secrets in many of our beloved Black celebrities lives, we would faint from the shock. Truth is stranger than fiction. Although he is passed on now, isn’t it something how Luther Vandross stayed out of the spotlight with what many saw as the obvious? We have to applaud his style because at least the Brother was so full of class that no one DARE go there with him.
