"Why is LGBTQIA not allowed to be a good, loving, Christian—you know what I mean? You can be gay and you can look up to the Lord. Why not? And so that's where it's like, home girl, just go make your movie." —JoJo Siwa's opinion on Candace Cameron Bure, and why she doesn't regret calling her the rudest celebrity she ever met.
I'm torn. On one hand, I believe in the judicial system—believe me, I do. On the other hand, I believe in my gut instincts. And if I had to bet my life on one or the other, I'd choose my instincts every time. For instance, there are certain celebrities who are plagued with rumors. One might say that if Mr. X were really gay, wouldn't there be some proof? On the other hand, proof or not, I believe what I believe.
This brings us to Kevin Spacey. For years, everyone whispered that he was gay. There was no proof—until he opened the Tony Awards dressed as Norma Desmond, and sang, "I'm coming out.…" Looking back, the apotheosis of his career also began his downfall. Seeing him up there prompted Anthony Rapp to come forward with his story, which led to Spacey admitting that he's gay. This led to Rapp's lawsuit, which gave scores of lads in the UK license to also come forward. And here we are.
What does it mean that Spacey was found not guilty in those cases? And what does this judicial win mean for his career? He's claimed there were several people in England waiting to hire him once the trial was over. Let's see how many offer him employment. What about the court of public opinion? He may get work, but will anyone care? When he was found "not guilty," Kevin wept openly, saying, "I am humbled by the outcome." And we're back where we started. Does a not guilty verdict change anyone's mind? Does that mean Spacey is actually innocent?
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. just did a cagey thing—he trotted out his shirtless son for a photo-op. That's one way to get the gay vote—pimp out your hot son. "Happy birthday, Conor!"—said RFK Jr. in a social media post.
Conor Richardson Kennedy turned 29 and is maturing quite nicely. Did the ploy work? I suppose so—I forget about what a loon Cheryl Hines' husband is and focused on Conor's rippling torso, which you can see on BillyMasters.com .
I've written extensively about the almost excruciating Glamorous on Netflix. No amount of Cattrall or flashing abs could save this poorly executed show. But it did give Miss Benny a moment in the sun. Benny plays Marco, Cattrall's flamboyant assistant that apparently no circuit boy can resist.
Turns out that, prior to Glamorous, Benny appeared on Fuller House and, well, he says it wasn't a great experience: "One of the Tanner sisters is very publicly 'not for the girls,' if that makes sense. I remember I got sat down by the writers and the studio to basically warn me how this person allegedly wanted the character removed, and not to have a gay character on the show."
While Benny doesn't name anyone specifically, it's clearly about Candace Cameron Bure—and she was not having it. "I never asked Miss Benny's character to be removed from 'Fuller House' and did not ask the writers, producers or studio executives to not have queer characters on the show." She goes on to wish Benny "only the best" - in that way Southern women add, "Bless your heart!"
Cher will be everywhere come this fall. She's working on not one but TWO albums—the first rumored to be a holiday collection (which should thrill Paul Shaffer) As if that weren't enough, she also has a line of gelato! Yes, because when I think of Cher, I think of gelato. Or, as she calls it, "Cherlato." She's SO clever!
Now Cher has partnered with a New Zealand company—because when I think of gelato, I think of New Zealand. Cher released some photos and prose about the venture, in which she describes "countless hours in the kitchen, refining flavor combinations." Because when I think of countless hours in the kitchen...well, you get the idea.
We must send out congrats to sexy Conrad Ricamora. The How To Get Away With Murder alum is currently on Broadway in Here Lies Love. But he took a little time to enjoy the view...of his fiancé.
Last week, Conrad and Peter Wesley Jensen tied the knot. "Happily hyphenated. Introducing the Ricamora-Jensens. Lots of great things happened these past few weeks, but this is the highlight of my life."
Our almost predictable "Ask Billy" question comes from Walt in Chicago: "Did you see that photo Cheyenne Jackson posted? Holy fuck, has he ever been hotter? Is there an uncensored version?"
I think he hit his hotness peak around the time that photo was taken. He posted it on social media to announce he's available for Cameo messages—for the bargain-basement rate of $95. Even that is exponentially more than a subscription to BillyMasters.com—where you'll find an uncensored (and aroused) Cheyenne for only $5 a month.
When we're cheaper than a celeb, we've definitely come to the end of another column. I may be cheap, but I'm worth it. And I'll bend over backward to prove it on www.BillyMasters.com —the site that's a bargain at any price. If you have a question, reach out and touch me at Billy@BillyMasters.com and I'll get back to you before Kevin Spacey does the same! Until next time, remember, one man's filth is another man's bible.
