Sandy Gallin is dead to me!!!

F&F OP for not providing a link

Jesus Christ, Bruce Bozzi knew him back in 1992. Did he fuck everyone in the gay mafia?

Sad. He had very good taste.

the press is saying he worked for Cher but I remember him being linked to Dolly more

I thought he died the other day already?

Unlike Geffen and Diller in the Gay Mafia Sandy had heart, the other two were just and are pompous assholes, At least he lived and was loved and sought it out , Geffen and Diller along with Klein are just rent boy whores and always will be.

Hmm, who gets his money and estate ? worth at least 50m plus, no children or family....Any knowledge out there ? Charity?

Is he still married to Bryan Fox ?

Yes, from what I read, R8.

My God! He is dead? Were Sandy and David friends at the end of his life? Dolly must feel sad.

I just want a to know was he the one who got Keanu Reeves started in show business? He made an award winning TV movie with. Keanu's stepfather and for some reason Keanu spent a lot of time with his gay stepfather, who was only married to his mother for a year. Just curious.

Who will get the black book of hustler contacts?!

RIP. Thanks for the link to the article. He lived a great life.

I had the impression that he liked. Barely legal, am I wrong.

Who did he leave his money too?

He certainly had a mighty big face

I dated and lived at his house for a summer when I was in my early twenties. He was very nice to me, but some of his friends treated me like dirt. I got to meet Dolly briefly.

[quote]some of his friends treated me like dirt

David Geffen? He seems like a cunt.

r16, details please!

Gallin seemed to have worked with every star on the planet.

He seemed to be close to Anderson Cooper, Andy Cohen, Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos.

Sandy is a girl's name. Why he have a girl's name? Is he like Bruce Jenner?

Anderson Cooper posted this on his Instagram: [quote]How many hikes? How many late night talks? How many stories told? How much laughter did we share? Sandy Gallin was a friend to so many, and i am lucky that i knew him for as long as i did. Another like him will not pass this way. He was deeply loved and will be deeply missed.

R21, who are the guys to the right of Gallin in that photo. Handsome hiking partners. Even Anderson looks kind of hot there.

Come on, we need some gay mafia dirt. Spill it!

R22, I have no idea who those guys are either.

I'm with R23, where's the gay mafia dirt??

Richard Pryor said he had to suck Gallin off to become a star.

Did Sandy pimp out hot boys to Anderson?

For some good Sandy Gallin gossip, read this memoir, "Michael and Me" by Shana Mangatal. I stumbled across it a few months ago and was pleasantly surprised by all of the juicy gossip. She was Sandy's receptionist at his music management company for 7 years, during the MJ years, and writes about what she witnessed. Including all of the young, inexperienced guys hired to be managers just because they were attractive. There's gossip about Madonna and Elizabeth Taylor in there too. I guess they were good friends of Sandy's.

If she's claiming to have "romanced" Michel Jackson then she's full of it.

The one on the right in R21's pic looks like Dylan Walsh. A younger Dylan Walsh

Isn't that Andy to his right(well his LEFT actually?)

Finally, my butthole can start healing...

With Michael and Madonna

[quote] Who will get the black book of hustler contacts?!

Dibs!

Wasn't he Bryan Lourds Boyfriend for a longtime?

I think so R30.

I was invited, out of the blue, to a party thrown by the managers of an up and coming actress/singer.

I was only 15. She was beautiful and charming and older (early twenties) and said that they're looking for young, talented guys to represent and that I should come - that it would be a lot of fun.

I distinctly remember the mangers were Katz Gallin.

I was thrown that this person even knew who I was, let alone went out of her way to pull me aside and offer a personal invitation.

I was excited more by her approaching me than the prospect of going to the party.

Something seemed forced about it, and kind of hinky.

I was shy, and declined, but always wondered 'what if'.

It's very common that Gay Mafia types have people on their payroll who look for boys as party entertainment. It's not that different from what Jarec Wentworth did for Donald Burns (Jarec got paid for each guy - usually Sean Cody models - he introduced to Donald). The only big difference was that this was mainly for private encounters while the others recruit and lure hot boys and guys to show up at parties and have some fun (getting to drink and given drugs even when they are not yet legally permitted to drink) and be introduced to party guests who want to know the boys or guys a little bit more.

^^^Imagine that!

bumping for more gossip

R22 to the right of Gallin are Mark Consuelos and Bruce Bozzi.

Consuelos and Bozzi Along with Anderson Cooper and Andy Cohen constitute the pathetic last vestiges of what was once the gay mafia, through their association with Barry Diller and Bryan Lourd (Bozzi's husband).

With all respect, I think that is Andy, not Mark Consuelos. It's the mouth which is the giveaway.

Consuelos is indeed a similar, if not swarthier type.

"I was shy, and declined, but always wondered 'what if'."

DRAT!

R13 How about illegal instead.........

R17 Queen Twink AKA Geffen has mellowed out in his old age. He's not the dick he once was. Diller is still the cock he always has been.

I agree about that not being Mark, R41. The shape of his face and head is all wrong even if there was more weight involved.

In that book that was posted, "Michael and Me" in [r27], the author said that Michael Jackson told her that David Geffen tried to kiss him. Michael rebuffed his advances and their friendship was strained after that. He said that Madonna did the same thing to him-kissed him and then wanted to have sex...but Michael was turned off by her aggressiveness. Geffen is the person that introduced Michael to Sandy.

yes, I remember madonna tried to put the move on MJ, they went to oscars together that year, it was that night I believe. Madonna said nothing happened.

We had enough of his influence on our entertainment. If celebrities thought he was a great guy well that's lovely, but if he abused minors in any way, then it will emerge and his death (the real cause please?) will be something to celebrate

R46, Michael was never Geffen's type. That "author" sounds like a lying fangurl.

From THR:

Andy Cohen Pens Tribute to Late Manager Sandy Gallin: "Funny and Outrageous," "Legendary" Parties

Having Sandy Gallin as a friend was like winning the joy lottery. He was generous, upbeat, hilarious and knew everybody. Though I'd like to think I was one of his inner circle of special friends, the truth is, Sandy's inner circle was as big as Manhattan.

His stories — often told in his unmistakable Five Towns drawl bellowing on a speaker phone while he was flat on his back on a massage table — were a glorious part of the soundtrack of his friendships. His was no typical Hollywood shtick — Sandy spent his life in the room where it happened. He picked up The Beatles at JFK, bailed Richard Pryor out of jail and teamed with Dolly Parton as she crossed over into … everything. How about when Sandy found out that his clients Milli Vanilli couldn't sing? ("What do you mean they can't sing?!" he demanded — until he found out they literally could not sing.) You could listen to the Michael Jackson stories forever, and there was plenty to tell. But as funny and outrageous as his tales could be, it was always clear how much he loved and respected the people he worked with. He never betrayed them. And it always somehow came back to Mac Davis, but that's another story.

His parties were legendary, and leather-bound books of photos commemorated them all: Barry Diller's 40th, a roller-skating party for Cher and, one of the first I attended, Christmas 1997 at the Fifth Avenue apartment he shared with Dolly. I was Bruce Bozzi's plus-one, and I felt as if I were walking into heaven. There were stars and laughter everywhere — Roddy McDowall, Joan Collins, Henry and Stacey Winkler, Carole Bayer Sager, Calvin Klein and Dolly, who in Mrs. Claus-red could've been mistaken for Mrs. Gallin. There also was plenty of window dressing; it was never a "Hard Candy Christmas," as Dolly once sang, at 600 Fifth Ave...

Now that he's dead we need a juicy biography!

Fuck Andy Cohen fame whore , he never knew Sandy in his golden years , when he managed the best, all he has are Sandy's stories from the past which he never was a part of , I actually was and knew his boyfriends and assistants as well, the only reason Sandy had anything to do with Cohen was to stay relevant with the times. Sandy RIP great guy.

Loved Sandy soooo sweet rip

I once spent a summer fucking him off the coast of the Atlantic in his ass. He was cold inside and I made a lot of money.

What was the deal that Andy Cohen was talking about Sandy gallin and Mac Davis? I need Mac Davis stories ASAP

[quote]He said that Madonna did the same thing to him-kissed him and then wanted to have sex...but Michael was turned off by her aggressiveness.

Aggressiveness- is that what he called an adult vagina?

FYI - I know nothing of any of these stories

he flew my buddy, a facon star of porn, to his home for sex often, who was passsed around by several of the velvet mafia, they all paid well. some just wanted company....

he was a wild one, but liked by many, unlike others in that gay mafia.....
