Any truth that Tony Danza was/is bi?

A friend insists that Danza went to a lot of the bars in NY in the mid 1970s during his boxing years but stopped when he became famous with "Taxi".

My buddy said he was very gay positive and even though he identified as bi he leaned more gay than bi so much so that he divorced his wife and started dating men exclusively.

As for details, he said Danza had a little above average uncut dick but it was really thick and larger than average balls and a really hairy ass and crack.

Loved receiving oral but did not like to reciprocate, and always asked to be rimmed. Loved kissing and was a voracious bottom usually going 2 or 3 times a night.

When he was discovered and cast in "Taxi" he became a bit more closeted and stopped going to bars and by the eighties pretty much cut off all ties with his old friends and the gay community.

A male friend of a friend supposedly had a fling with Danza in the late 90s. According to the story, they met at the gym (Gold's, I believe) in LA.

"Loved kissing and was a voracious bottom usually going 2 or 3 times a night."

Which I assume gave him the edge when he auditioned later for "Who's The Bossy?"

"Was" bi?

Like it goes away?

I always heard he was at least bi. Two marriages, two kids, apparently close to the kids, is a grandfather…

And in case anyone wonder why remember him as he was even if we like him as a daddy, here.

I don't know if Danza is bi or secretly gay but I do remember when slammed Ellen DeGeneres and Anne Heche.

This was when Clinton was still in office. Danza (a Republican) and his wife and DeGeneres and Heche were at some kind of White House party/reception thingy.

Danza complained to a reported that DeGeneres and Heche were all over each other the entire time, even when they were talking with President Clinton. Just basically openly kissing, cuddling and slobbering on other.

The reporter replied that DeGeneres and Heche were a couple who are in love and were showing affection to each other.

Danza replied, "So? I was there with my wife. My wife and I love each other and we didn't stand there making out in front of the President."

I got the feeling Danza thought that DeGeneres felt she some special right to act that way because of her gay-ness. (This was DeGeneres had her big, ratings and fame-generating "coming out" episode.)

When asked to respond to Danza's comments DeGeneres' publicist said, "Ellen is really feeling attacked from all sides right now." (Oh sweet victimhood!!)

I kind of thought Danza had a point.

Tony was one of Merv Griffins boys. I remember reading a story written years ago by an older guy who worked at Merv's hotel . { Vegas or Palm Springs, can't recall}. This guy was asked to bring lunch to Merv's private bungalow. The bungalow had its own private pool. When The guy entered the area he saw Merv sitting on a patio chair watching a young very naked Tony Danza emerge from the pool and continue to dry himself off. The lucky guy said Tony was completely uninhibited by his nudity and it was obvious that Tony was there for Merv's enjoyment.

A little gossip on David Morris, the Danza look alike discussed a little earlier. Even though he looked italian, he was jewish (Reingold). He developed a major heroin addiction and contracted Hep C in the mid 80s. Heard he was mainly straight in his personal life and had a thing for being dommed by women. He did an occasional gay or bi scene in early in his career when he looked much better. He stunt assed for George Payne in Centurians Of Rome after George refused to bottom. He claimed he got 10 grand for CoR (yeah, right). He also occasionally escorted for women and men (George Payne did too). The two scenes linked earlier in the thread were late in his career when he was starting to lose his looks a little. He ended up ODing and didn't die right away and suffered from major damage and lingered on in a nursing home until he died.

Danza claims that rumors started by gays to get back at him for above claim say that his name was found in the black book of a Hollywood pimp, arrested for tax evasion, who supplies young men to celebrities. A steamy story in the June 1999 issue of DUDE said Danza regularly regularly employed the services of gay male porn star KEN RYKER. It's a vicoious lie by gays out to get me, said Danza. And did the magazine print the name of this pimp who supposecly supplied Ken Ryker. No, because he doesn't exist. It would be laughable except it hurts my family, Danza added.

I first heard this rumor on Sept. 18th, 1979. It was a very hot day and I had on a new pair of jeans I had bought at The Gap in Santa Monica on Wilshire. A blonde sales clerk asked me about Tony while I was trying the jeans on. They were playing My Sharona on the stereo system. I had just run into Carole Demas who was the original Sandy and Grease and she asked me if the rumors about Tony were true. Carole had on a lovely pale green pant suit but she had lost one of her earrings while she was on her lunch break after temping at an advertising agency in Century City. The Shubert Theater was new in Century City and I had seen my friend Sandy Roveta do a lovely take on Cassie somewhere during the run of A Chorus Line.

The rumors have been around NYC for nearly 40 years. He's very self hating and only fucks escorts and "the help". I've heard he may be more at ease with it recently however, hence the divorcing his wife in 2013 and shacking up with a long term companion, but I can't confirm it.

And NO, he would not have gone for Danny Pintauro. Two bottoms don't make a top and Danza is a VERY bossy, demanding bottom.

Unfortunately, David Morris only did gay porn when he was older and totally used up. In his younger hot days, it was strictly the straight stuff.

My next door neighbor used to work for this guy whose sister found a wallet on the 7 train and when she went to return it to the owner it turns out he knew this other guy who was waiting for a bus one day and started talking to this lady whose cousin went to school out west someplace and one of the girls in her cousins dorm used to live down the block from a guy that does hair, and I swear this is true, one of his clients was getting her hair done one day and she totally said that Tony Danza is totally gay. I swear.

r149 - 90's was not his date they were not together at all as far as it appeared. I think Tony got him there to be ready to leave but they were not together. Rex laughed when I recognized him, she said "keep it cool." I happened to know a few other porn guys from weho so We talked most of the night. I never put two and two together until he said "hey I gotta run now" and got in Danza's limo.

Judith Light is one of Tony's best friend, you can't get any gayer than that.

I vividly remember that Tony Dazna gave me the first "gay" boner I ever remember having. This was in the late 80s when Who's the Boss was at the height of its popularity I was 13 or 14. At this particular point in the show, the wardrobe people had moved Tony away form the darker 70s style blue jeans he wore for the first couple seasons into the lighter acid wash jeans that were stylish in the late 80s. They were super tight on Danza and his ass and thighs would bulge in them. In this episode, Tony sits down on the couch with Sam's character and he clearly winces because the jeans must have squeezed his balls being very tight. For the rest of the scene he's clearly trying get his balls to move to stop the pain by moving his thighs back and forth but in the process you could clearly see everything flopping around, balls and cock. My just entering puberty pecker enjoyed it a lot. Side note, late the show's run the put Danza in much looser fitting jeans and they did not flatter him.

PS he fills out this spiderman costume wonderfully.

R158, standard 80s sitcom fare... but this was entertaining.

The cougar lady went on to play plain Ruth on Y&R, Carl Williams' new girlfriend after he got amnesia.

Dori Brenner was a bit of a scene stealer as Angela's pal Wendy. Sadly, she died of cancer at only 53.

Big Grant fan here, but he played every line perfectly. Took the beats, got his laughs. Wasn't afraid to do hunk roles.

Spelling used him in a rare miss called Dark Mansions, I think. He did one or two other things and then back to Springfield.

by Anonymousreply 175May 26, 2020 2:25 AM

There is at least one thing that is certainly 100% true in the original post.

He DOES have a very hairy ass. I remember seeing him from behind without his shirt on, probably on an episode of Taxi, but maybe something else, and he had a very noticeable patch of dark black hair on his lower back. Nowadays he likely would have been told to shave or wax it off, but late-70's, early-80's it was acceptable.

And there was an article in some magazine, it was either an interview with Marilu Henner or Tony Danza, where it talked about her teasing him about that patch of overgrown ass hair.

So, gay or bi, top or bottom, who knows...but hairy ass, most definitely!

[quote]It was implied that Danza cozied up to the production to get them to pick him. How he did that isn't known, it could be sexual or simply being a suck up.

To be fair, Danza had a lot more charisma and his character had more personality. I am guessing if they had asked the viewers who to keep it would have been Tony.
