Puffball Tom Selleck profile

Well what do you want them to do? Put him before a Congressional Hearing? He's a light weight actor. Who gives a fuck?

Doesn’t part of this 1991 quote get kind of word salad-y?

[quoute]“I am as proud of my sexual preference as those who happen to be gay are of theirs,” Selleck said in a statement. “[bold]There is not a man who has lived on the face of the Earth in my lifetime who can truthfully deny what is so obviously my choice[/bold]; that is, that I am singularly heterosexual.”

Hahahahaha @R2

What a major puff piece. My understanding is that Tom Selleck has been dealing with significant mobility issues due to acute arthritis, and even has stunt double on Blue Bloods for simple tasks like walking.

He's also a big ole homosexual despite his many denials.

I know someone in the cast of Blue Bloods and it sounds like a happy set and that he’s a nice guy to everyone.

Par for the course for WaPo, which has recently published fawning profiles of Lauren Boebert and Marjorie Taylor Greene.

R2, what an odd thing to say. A friend of mine who perished in the HIV epidemic prior to the antivirals told me he did a one off with Selleck- about 1982.

I also found his wife kind of an odd match. Beard?

Who knows- very mediocre actor, but handsome guy although I’ve never thought he was sexy. He’s very studied and mechanical. In and Out was a funny film, but not because of him.

Tom is one of the most virile heterosexual men I know!

Just thinking about his masculinity makes me crave some hot heterosexual lovemaking!

R6 That's what I heard as well. The cast gets along very well. This is the 14th and last season of Blue Bloods.

Insane amount of photoshopping, he is Fug in his Old age. Scary looking almost.

His wife looks like an off-brand Trudy Styler...

R12 The poor dear has only been satisfied by straddling jets in the hot tub for decades!

I would have licked his shitter until I got to his small intestines.

The quote in R2’s post …. He is singularly heterosexual and he’s PROUD of it ?????? I never really thought he was in the closet ,… but this man on the face of the earth shit

^^ apparently that was part of a statement he made when he sued a tabloid for 20 mil. when they reported he was one of the stars being outed on anonymously printed flyers in 1992 (?)

Selleck Sues Globe Tabloid, Says Story Depicts Him as Homosexual / L.A. Times Archives / July 4, 1991

Actor Tom Selleck filed a $20-million libel and invasion of privacy lawsuit Wednesday against the Globe supermarket tabloid after his name appeared in an article titled “ ‘Gay’ Stars Stop Traffic.”

The item, published in the July 2 issue, lists a number of celebrities whose pictures appeared on placards posted around New York City. Under some of the photos was the statement, “Absolutely Queer.”

The lawsuit said the story brought “hatred, contempt, ridicule and obloquy” to Selleck.

It said the Globe story was intended to “injure plaintiff with respect to his family relations, reputation, character, profession, trade or business.” The suit seeks $20 million in general damages and unspecified punitive damages.

Selleck played a detective on CBS-TV’s “Magnum, P.I.” for six years. He appeared in the movie hit “Three Men and a Baby” and its sequel.

A publicist for Selleck said in a statement that the Globe “republished false statements made by an anonymous group which falsely creates the impression that he is ‘gay.’ ”

Globe Editor Wendy Henry, reached by telephone at Globe International Inc. in Boca Raton, Fla., said the article was “a news report of a perfectly factual story. That’s really all we can say.”

Selleck said the story was ridiculous.

“I am as proud of my sexual preference as those who happen to be gay are of theirs,” Selleck said in a statement. “There is not a man who has lived on the face of the Earth in my lifetime who can truthfully deny what is so obviously my choice; that is, that I am singularly heterosexual.”

Selleck noted that he is married with a daughter, and that he raised a son in a first marriage

Hey Tom, what you shaking?

It's funny how half the comments are dragging him for pimping reverse mortgages to oldsters.

Lose some weight fat ass

The obligatory posting of the early 70s safeguard soap commercial starring Tom and dl faves penny marshall and Teri garr.

FUCK YOU R20

He WAS smoking hot in that Safeguard commercial.

I’m sorry, but F Fawcett sounds flat out mentally retarded in this commercial with Selleck

Isn't that a bit over the top for a statement? He is protesting too much. I love me some Selleck and always have but less attention to this is better if he does want to stay in the closet.

He sounds so boring.

I just hate mustaches so I never found Version II hot. Version one, without the stache, was off the charts. It's the little things.

Of course he’s gay. Isn’t everyone?

We had a friend tell us he slept with Selleck back in his early days but nobody believed him because 1) our friend wasn't that attractive, and 2) there were a lot of gay Tom Selleck clones back in the 70s. Selleck shouldn't have said anything, just do it like Travolta did when they outed him with the porn star -- deny it thru a representative and let it drop. The one thing that stands out though is his feeling that his heterosexuality is a "choice" or a "preference" which sounds like code for - okay maybe I was gay once but I made a decision and now I'm straight.
