Tom Selleck: Bottom or Top?
He was totally playing himself in "In And Out".
He still looked hot then..hadn't started dying his hair that blue-black crap that he does now.
Who's he trying to kid anyway?
hollywoodagentintheknow- His persona seems totally different now than when he was Magnum.
Very dour and humorless now whereas he was once sexy and mischievous.
- My boyfriend worked with Selleck on "Magnum PI" and told me that he's one of the good guys of show business. No gay vibe at all. John Hillerman was a total slut and loved older, hefty guys.
- Old friend from the 70s and 80s claimed that he fucked Tom Selleck. Met him on the Upper West Side in front of a hardware store in the late 70s/early 80s. And yes Selleck was a bottom.
Where%20is%20that%20friend%20today%3F
- He's just a salope with a moustache
- He's a hottie still
- I refuse to look that up, R4.
- I watched "In and Out" yesterday and he still looked pretty hot then. Now he dyes his hair that blue-black color which is totally wrong for him and makes him look like Norma Desmond as a man. There were all kinds of rumors about TS when he was doing MPI in Hawaii. Right before he married that Jilly Mack woman, a jeep that was registered to him was trashed by a young hottie. TS claimed the boy was the son of a woman he was dating and he allowed the boy to borrow it. LMFAO. Right after that, he got married.

Your boyfriend isn't very observant. I know a guy who lived in Hawaii during the Magnum PI days and had a big affair with him. This guy (who BTW is a complete fucking douche bag, but I digress...) is a top, but I don't know if he was one back then. But I'd still say Selleck is a bottom.
- With this grapefruit-sized sack, I hope he's a top...

- what a picture....Tom on his back legs up and spread wide.
- Considering his age (when he came of age etc.), isn't it more likely that he's a top?
- [quote]With this grapefruit-sized sack, I hope he's a top...
As you'll discover as you age, everyone develops grapefruit-sized sacks.

- My image of Tom still remains how he looked in a "Taxi" episode where he played a fare of Elaine's who almost caused her to fuck him in the back of the cab.
Wow, check out the co-stars of Tom's first commercial.

- I watched Blue Bloods last night and couldn't get over how much of an old queen seemed to be, no matter how "manly" and butch the role he played. It showed through, ya know? I remarked as much, and family laughed and agreed! In a least a couple of interviews, he seemed to give off a vibe, at least to me. Amazing, the stories about him here on DL!
- Patti Deutsch!
Penny Marshall!
Terri Garr!
- R15, what do those 3 women have to do with this thread? I am confused.
- Did you watch the Safeguard commercial r16?
I think not.
- I slept with Selleck three times. He is indeed a bottom, refusing to top even to mix things up a bit.
- Bottom. Or so I've heard. The door always has been locked when I go to bed.

- What about the other two guys, the black dude who flew the helicopter and the one (Rick?)? Was the whole cast gay?
- R18 Wow! 3 times? Lucky you. I must admit, the man is still a hunk, even at 67.
Here's what I don't understand. A few people on the Net claim to have slept with him.But, awhile back, he sued either a supermarket tabloid or maybe it was Act-Up either something to do with sexual orientation or maybe it was something about his marriage. I can't remember it exactly right now. How do you suppose it is that they never found folks that would come forward with info/proof?
- [quote]How do you suppose it is that they never found folks that would come forward with info/proof?
The problem is that "proof" would need to be pretty big -- photos or something equally damning. He's a genuinely nice guy, and his lovers tend to be the same -- he doesn't go for hustlers or others who have financial motives - so I think they're pretty reluctant to run to the tabloids about it. For example, I wouldn't. I wish he would come out, of course, and I have no compunction about gossiping about him here, anonymously, but I'm not interested in outing him to the media for no good reason. (And no, the fact that he is a conservative -- though not quite as conservative as most people think -- is not reason enough for me.)
And even if I did, I didn't keep his DNA or have a hidden video camera anywhere, so I wouldn't be able to prove a damn thing. My testimony is no better than gossip, which of course is why I'm on Datalounge, where most people will call me an EST anyway.
- I would hope that he would have been a bottom--that ass of his needed pounding and flattening like a Swiss Steak! Even now I wouldn't mind busting his ass like a balloon. His high, prissy voice is what was the big turnoff. It would make my day if someone told me they spanked him as foreplay.

- Good for you, R22. Tom always seemed like a genuinely nice guy, gay or straight, conservative or liberal. I'm glad he has a friend as nice and as decent as you!
- I guess what I'm wondering is, why did he sue for big bucks when accused of being gay/bi/whatever? Why not just ignore it? How was he sucessful in sueing if there are those out there who claim to have been with him, ya know what I mean? I'm surprised the tabloid (?) didn't find these guys somehow.
- R22, you made your points very well. Good for you.
I gather that Selleck was fired from the CBS daytime soap The Young And The Restless because TPTB thought his voice was too high and [childish epithet posted by a bigoted tool]. And within a few years he was that network's biggest star.
- Tom got fired from The Young and The Restless? I didn't realize he left due to being fired.
- I don't think Roger Mosely or Larry Mannetti are gay. However, Larry Mannetti is the half brother of Robert Conrad so you never know.
- He doesn't speak or act as masculine as he looks, but I doubt that he is a sexually active homosexual. Probably a bisexual who chooses to remain loyal to his marriage vows.
I think the people writing, directing, and producing Magnum PI put a lot of subversive innuendo in that program which rubbed off on Selleck in the minds of the viewer. Magnum was obviously the boytoy of the unseen Robin Masters who was probably based on Gore Vidal or Truman Capote.
- Did Tom Selleck get a spanking?
anon
- I was still do his 67 year-old ass.
- That is, I 'would' still do his 67 year-old ass.
- A lot of guys looked like Tom Selleck in the '70s and early '80s.
These "friends" who claim to have fucked him probably fucked a clone.
If Selleck were an active bottom back then, there's a 99% chance he would not be alive today.
- [quote]He doesn't speak or act as masculine as he looks, but I doubt that he is a sexually active homosexual. Probably a bisexual who chooses to remain loyal to his marriage vows.
I slept with him about five years ago. Sex isn't as big a deal with him today as it was fifteen years ago, but he still seeks out male companionship. He and his wife Jillie live apart, though he doesn't publicize this; she lives in California, and when he's not shooting Blue Bloods, he's usually at his "summer" home in Maine.
[quote]If Selleck were an active bottom back then, there's a 99% chance he would not be alive today.
Nope, he insisted on condoms long before they were "necessary."
- I kinda believe R34
- [quote]Nope, he insisted on condoms long before they were "necessary."
Did. Not. Happen.
- [quote]I slept with him about five years ago
So how was it? You cannot post saying that you've slept with Tom Selleck and not say what the experience was like.
- I'm surprised Rosie never outed him.
- [quote]So how was it? You cannot post saying that you've slept with Tom Selleck and not say what the experience was like.
It was nice. I've been with him three times over the years. He's a bottom. Not too vocal, but enthusiastic and strong.
- I believe r34. Why is it so hard to believe a closet case would be careful not to get any stds? Even before AIDS there was other shit to be worried about .
It's not hard to imagine if someone had a modicum of self-care and control issues he would want to use a condom.
- [quote]He's a bottom. Not too vocal, but enthusiastic and strong.
So he grunts and can take a mean pounding?
Did he ride you or lay there with his legs up? Is he the bigger man, or are you taller than him?
- I've had the hots for Selleck since his days as Lance White on "The Rockford Files". He always seemed like a pretty cool guy. Don't know if he's gay or not, but he always was in my fantasies!
Higgins
- He's such a bad actor he should not talk.
- Could he be the handsomest man to ever have lived?
- R44 - I don't know about that, but he was the sexiest dude on television in the 1980s.
T.C. and Rick
- .
- He was so pretty back in his day. I would jack off at least once during every episode of Magnum P I. Little short Larry Manetti was pretty also, and sometimes they had guest stars who were good to look at.
- I wonder if Tom knows that men used to jack off to him.
- My ex-bf used to vacation in Hawaii all the time during the Magnum PI years, and he said it was widely known in Honolulu gay circles that Selleck was gay and supposedly he had a steady bf back then.
- I believe [r34]. Something was posted about him on the 'net somewhere, I can't remember exactly where, and it was a very long time ago. So what? He seems like a fine man, a decent sort, ya know? and it doesn't appear to be an act. And he looks darn good. In my opinion he looked his best AFTER age 50.
- I hope he never, ever gets any "work done" on his face. He looks darn fine as he is. His aging face gives him character and maturity that a young, lean face cannot achieve. His face is fuller, which I find more attractive than his younger years. Not that I would have turned him away. Back in his Magnum days,his face was fine, true, but it was too lean,too thin, too...I don't know, almost reptilian. I suspect this may have been from dieting to stay thin.
Burt Reynolds and Kenny Rogers both look absolutely horrible with their faces redone.
- I used to be a top but at age 50 I realized I could get more sleep as a bottom.
- It's easier at our age,no?
- "Do me" queen.
- damn. he's a rightwing NRA hack. pass.
- He was so beautiful. He used to seem so fun an charming and now he just seems like a cranky old man.

- His longtime marriage and family life have matured him, r56, that's all.
Fiona%20F.
- Riiiiiiiiiight.......
- Didn't he get his start in Myra Breckenridge. Nothing against Roger Herren, who was okay, but I would have preferred Sellect as Rusty Godowski.
- I've never thought of his voice as high. Though I'm of the "Friends" rather than "Magnum PI" generation.
- Hate him.
and%20his%20closet
- Like him!
His voice has gotten so deep, older sounding lately. Still hot, IMO.
And if he is more conservative than some, so what. Isn't that a part of diversity?
- No. Closet-case, self-loathing creep.
- I remember a female friend of mine, with much better gaydar than I, watching Selleck, Ted Danson and Steve Guttenberg being interviewed on some daytime talk show when "Three Men and a Baby" was out (yes, I'm old.) She couldn't believe how "obvious" - without perhaps meaning to be - Selleck, and even Ted DANson (I have always wondered about him, too) were: obviously queeny - voice, intonation, gestures. Of course this was around 30 years ago.
- He seems very unhappy nowadays, but I don't watch him much. I want to remember like he was in Magnum P I, and I don't care for his looks now that he is so old. I still watched Magnum P I when a local station was showing it in syndication, but I haven't seen it in a long time.
- I have watched Magnum reruns on the 'net (Hulu?. There are dvds available, but right now I'm too cheap to shell out $$.
I admire the Jesse Stone series. I wonder why he has decided to discontinue them. I rather like the older, more serious Tom Selleck.I like his looks just as much, if not more so. And I like the character Jesse Stone as well.
- I too really enjoy the Jesse Stone films. Good acting, intersting characters and Selleck looks very sexy (much more handsome than how he looks on Blue Bloods)

I just watched a video of him getting his star on the HWOF and being interviewed with his mother, and he totally pinged there too. This was right before "3 Men..." came out...

He's certainly in the closet, but he's not self-loathing. In private he's quite matter-of-fact about liking men.
- [quote]He's certainly in the closet, but he's not self-loathing.
You'll have to excuse these queens on here. They tend to believe that if you aren't shouting from the mountaintops that you're gay, then you're self-loathing.
[quote]In private he's quite matter-of-fact about liking men.
Care to elaborate?
- [quote]Care to elaborate?
Sorry, I'm both R69 and R18. I knew him socially a bit as well as being an occasional fuckbuddy. In private he is affectionate and comfortable with himself, and talks about what kind of men he likes (he self-identifies as bi, though he's had a lot more male lovers than female, and so far as I know he hasn't been with another woman since he married Jillie).
He is still fond of Jillie but acknowledges that their marriage is quite strained, and they live apart most of the time. Staying married is somewhat important to him (he adores his daughter, Hannah), but it's incredibly important to Jillie. She'd die if her family and her snooty friends found out.
- What about his hot hairy "Blue Bloods" co-star Greg Jbara? He looks like he's seen some homosex action.
i%20know%20he%27s%20married%20-%20-%20
- R71,That is kinda the vibe I get about him, that he is a family man type of guy. Do you mind saying what kinda men does he like? I kinda got the vibe probably men similiar to the ones he plays in film, you know, Jesse Stone type guys: mature, manly guys with a heart.
- R73: He likes mature men (as opposed to twinks), physically fit but not necessarily muscled. Moderate hair. Mostly he doesn't like silly, flighty guys -- "they're exhausting." He likes men who are more low-key, and comfortable in their own skin, even if it's a little rumpled.
- Sorry, but I don't believe anything that
R71/74 says. Nice try.
- k
- R64, that's sexist. And if Mary Steenburgen thought Danson were gay, she'd dump him. They spend a lot of time together and work together in projects as well.
- Saw him last night on Blue Bloods while I was surfing through the channels. He ghastly with his dyed hair, eyebrows, and mustache, and the excessive amounts of make-up. He is an old man, he seemed to be portraying an old man, so why the clownish masquerade? He is never again going to be the object of widespread lust that he was in his Magnum days, but there are plenty of daddy-seekers who would lust after him, if he were not doing this freak show routine.
- "even Ted DANson (I have always wondered about him, too)"
When Danson "dated" Whoppi Goldberg, I had the same thought.
- Indeed
- "You'll have to excuse these queens on here. They tend to believe that if you aren't shouting from the mountaintops that you're gay, then you're self-loathing."
You'll have to excuse the queens here. They think that if you don't lie about who you are then you are "shouting it from the rooftops." There is a difference between being private and being a liar. He lied. He claimed to be straight. He is a liar.
- [quote] My ex-bf used to vacation in Hawaii all the time during the Magnum PI years, and he said it was widely known in Honolulu gay circles that Selleck was gay and supposedly he had a steady bf back then.
Totally true, and I posted something similar about this at R8.
- If you don't like the way Selleck leads his life, then simply ignore threads on DL about him; don't watch any of his films or TV programs, and vote for tighter gun control, but stop bitching because he doesn't come out as a man who is gay. His business, not yours. Flame away or better yet, flame out. enough already.
- In 2012, anyone still cowering in the closet deserves scorn and criticism.
YOU deal with that, r83.
- (2013 even MORE so)

- If you don't like the way DLers discuss celebrities, then simply ignore DL; don't read any of the threads, and go to other websites instead, but stop bitching because you don't like the comments. DLers' business, not yours. Flame away or better yet, flame out. enough already.
This%20is%20for%20you%2C%20R83
- "but stop bitching because he doesn't come out as a man who is gay. His business, not yours. Flame away or better yet, flame out. enough already."
I guess you're a closeted Republican liar like Tom. Flame out.
- Meh, who am I to say how a celeb lives their life? We each do what is best for us in our own situation, celeb or not. Let's stay on topic. If you need to discuss this, start your own thread. This one is too interesting.And thank you to the poster who is posting interesting and informative info.
Re: the dye job. It may be that in his role in Blue Bloods, he is supposed to be a grandfather BUT Lou Cariou (sp?), who plays the role of the GREAT grandfather, is in real life not much older than Tom Selleck. So, the dye job makes him (TS) look younger.
- Why did he buy a place in Maine, of all places? Since he is a SoCal boy, why didn't he buy out West somewhere? I didn't think he had roots in Maine. I am guessing that the low-key, kinda conservative, traditional folk are maybe more to his liking? Just a guess there.
- r18/r34/r69 - what does he like to do? Suck cock? Rim? I always fantasized he had a foot fetish because he always sowed them off during Magnum.

My sentiments exactly.
R70
- Such good dish, R70. Please tell us more!
- I meant such good dish R71! Tell us more!
- R89, I'm originally from New England and I remember a rumor that in the 70s, Tom was the lover of a wealthy businessman who was older than Selleck. The rumor was that his lover had a summer house in Maine and he and Tom spent a lot of time there together. Supposedly the wife of Tom's lover knew about the arrangement and was fine with it. She had the status of wife and all the money and prestige that went along with it. Not sure if it's true, but that was the rumor. Now that I know Selleck has a house in Maine, it makes me wonder about that rumor all the more.
- Yes, I have heard that about Maine as well.
- I think Selleck rocks. I don't care if he's straight or gay, or in the closet, or not. I like his TV shows, his movies and him. He seems like a pretty decent guy. His personal life is none of our business. I've been a fan of his since episode 1 of Magnum, PI in December of 1980 and I will always like him. I still have a big crush on him too.
Jay in Texas
- You HAVE TO CARE if he's straight or gay. This is the Datalounge!
- R97 LOL.
- So many people say that actors should "come out" at all costs. I think not. Hollywood is VERY hypocritical. They preach that gay is good on the one hand, while denying actors prime roles because they are gay on the other. When a top name actor comes out they can expect to get only a couple of role types: TV sitcoms and playing the "gay best friend" to the bride in romantic comedy movies. Musical theater is the only other option, no matter how masculine the actor is. It's a sad situation, but it's true. If Selleck were gay and came out it WOULD cost him dearly. From that point forward, he would only be offered "gay" roles.
I see it all the time
- I met him years ago on several different occasions. Very nice guy. I don't know if he pinged, or not. My gaydar has always been terrible. LOL.
Johnny
- I did business with him in the '80s and I never got a gay vibe from him at all. I dealt with other celebs who did give off "the vibes" (No, I'm not telling), but Selleck never said or did anything to make me think he went "my way". He was always very kind, charming and witty and always made me feel comfortable around him. I wasn't exactly unattractive back then and if he had given me the "bat-signal", I would have been all over him, business or not. LOL.
Joe
- r96, if you think the personal lives of celebs are none of anyone's biz, then WHY are you on DL?!! ROTFLMAO!!
- I belive r71 r75. I heard something similiar before, awhile ago.
- R99, you ignorant fool, this is a gay gossip forum. DEAL with it.
- R104 - R99 here. I am not an ignorant fool. I am a gay actor. I'm not A-list, but you've probably heard of me. I did not mean for my comment to be rude. I am stating the facts as I see them every day in this business. I am probably C+ list, at best, but I cannot come out in Hollywood unless I want to be pigeon-holed into a certain type of role for the rest of my career. Sad fact, but true. If I come out, I will only be able to get supporting roles on Glee, if I'm lucky. Or maybe I will get the great cinematic challenge of playing Reese Witherspoon's "best gay pal" in her next rom-com. I did not mean to come across as an ass. I'm sorry if I have. However, that's the way it is in this town. Sorry if I have offended, but I live this.
- You just do what you need to do, R105, from one actor to another. I know how you feel.
- Isn't that do WHO you need to do?
- All true R105. Women want their stars to be as straight as they are. They have their favorites that they fantasize to and they certainly would be mortified to replace the vision of you, as an idol, going down on her with the vision of you with a dick in your mouth. It's just a fact of life and it's what sells tickets and the agents push back to this day against anyone who tries to go up against the status quo.
However, everything is in flux now, isn't it.
- R108 R105 here. Yes. It is getting better... slowly. I long for the day when I can be out to everyone, not just a few close friends and family. My agent told me that I can be as gay as I want to be, and rumors can fly until doomsday, just don't confirm it to the press. I can't wait until I don't have to do that anymore. NOTE: I have never used a beard and never will.
Someday I will FLY out of the closet
- God, I would love to think that Selleck is a power-bottom. I would love to have him on his back with his hairy legs up in the air, while I'm drilling his ass missionary style with my thick nine inch cock. When I'm finished I will shoot my load all over that hairy, manly chest and rub it in. After that fuck, it will take two or three hours for that hot, hairy hole to snap shut again. Mmm, mmm, mmm.
Fan since The Sacketts
- I could bury my tongue deep in a 1980's-era Tom Selleck butthole and suck for a week, non-stop.
Robin Masters
- "If I come out, I will only be able to get supporting roles on Glee, if I'm lucky."
Huh? Most actors would kill to get a role on a popular tv show. You are acting like this is a national tragedy.
You'll probably never be A-list even if you remain closeted. Might as well be honest about who you.
- Let's keep it on topic about Tom S! I only watch Blue Bloods 'cuz' he's in it!! Otherwise, I probably wouldn't watch it.Yeah, I think he's still quite a hunk.
- bump!
- [quote]I could bury my tongue deep in a 1980's-era Tom Selleck butthole and suck for a week, non-stop.
That's quite a visual.
