Why haven't we discussed this BI about a poz closet case yet?

Really nasty if it's true (and it sounds plausible to me):

Twisted F**k:

Everyone loves this actor. If you ask someone if they like him, they will say yes. He started out on television as a teen on a hit network show and has had some decent movie roles over the years. He is a lead, but one of those quiet leads who straddles the line between indie and box office getting those quiet box office movies. Generally the movies he leads are your movies that look like they are going to have some Oscar noms but always fall a little short. You all know him. Name to face? It is a tough one, but you all know the face. He is married. The thing is though, he is the guy who always leaves his wife at home even if he has a premiere. He got married to have people stop asking questions about his private life.

This story happened about a year ago and the actor paid a settlement and the victim signed a NDA, but is willing to speak here. Apparently our actor, even though he lives in town got a hotel room. He then found our victim on Grindr. Our actor is HIV+. Our actor didn't tell the victim that though. Our actor told the victim he liked rough sex and offered the victim $1000 for rough sex. The victim agreed and before he knew it he was tied up and being used. Our actor didn't use any protection and beat and basically raped the victim multiple times while the victim was restrained. At the end of it, the actor released the victim and actually gave him $1500 instead of the $1000 but had him sign an NDA. The NDA also included a provision that forbid the guy for suing if he caught any kind of STD from the actor.

Fast forward about six months and the victim discovered he is now HIV+. The only person he had unprotected sex with was the actor. When he tried to reach out to the actor he was shut down by his legal team and a pair of security people who visited the studio apartment of the victim. He was reminded of the NDA. When he threatened to go to the media, a repeat visit from the security guards and another letter from an attorney who threatened to sue the victim even though the victim was HIV+. Our victim got a lawyer. The lawyer managed to get $20K from the actor but that was it. He did also find out, the actor has done this to other men before. At least three other men that the lawyer discovered.

At AGC, they're guessing that this is Joseph Gordon-Levitt.

Yes its very plausible OP. We all know most POZ guys are pieces of shit who abuse their partners and rapists. Typhoid Marys deliberately spreading their deadly disease to innocent victims. None of them take the treatment but they lie and say they do. Stealthing is their mission. We should lock them all up.

by Anonymousreply 1April 12, 2018 9:36 AM

Still more fake CDAN bullshit. If it were true, how exactly would anyone have known such details? I'm so sick of hucksters spreading fake stories under the guise of blind items.

by Anonymousreply 2April 12, 2018 9:40 AM

Well, r2, it's obviously the victim who's talking off the record because he's pissed off, but can't go public because he signed the NDA.

Getting an addiitional $20K out of the rapist (only because they found out he's done the same thing to three other men) is pretty stingy, but then again, how are you going to prove that he's the one who infected you?

by Anonymousreply 3April 12, 2018 9:59 AM

Joseph Gordon-Levitt. He's obviously near death from AIDS, won't go near the toxic medicine, and he's raping guys and stealthing because he's so bitter about his fading career.

I was thinking Jason Bateman.

by Anonymousreply 5April 12, 2018 10:08 AM

I sincerely hope some of these posters are kidding.

Regardless of the personal story (sexual orientation, HIV status) of either of these straight-identified, married actors is, they're both allies to G&L and HIV-related causes. So I choose not to believe it's true.

by Anonymousreply 6April 12, 2018 10:15 AM

I remember how people used to make fun of "Ted Casablanca" and his writing style?

This really isn't an improvement.

Why are the majority of blind items so badly written. I mean, if you're writing fiction, have some style...

by Anonymousreply 7April 12, 2018 10:18 AM

Didn't we discuss this earlier this week? I knew it was JGL before I opened it because I read about it already.

by Anonymousreply 8April 12, 2018 11:52 AM

I'm not a fan, but I seem to remember reading a lot of gossip about JGL being on the downlow.

If he's bearding, I wonder why he bothers, and what's in it for his wife...is he rich? They have two kids IIR.

by Anonymousreply 9April 12, 2018 1:44 PM

R9 he's bi, so marriage is probably real.

I don't like JGL at all, but I kinda doubt this is him.

by Anonymousreply 10April 12, 2018 1:56 PM

Sorry, meant I doubt he's like this. I feel like there would've been rumours of violence. He's more of a garden-variety egotistical douchebag. BI seems to point to him though.

But you never know I suppose.

What TV show was John Cusack on?

by Anonymousreply 17April 12, 2018 2:21 PM

The 'victim' willingly didn't use protection and got paid 1500 for it. Then he got paid another 20,000. Even if it was true, that's more than most people who get HIV ever get in life.

by Anonymousreply 18April 12, 2018 2:45 PM

It's Will Smith, and why does Joseph Gordon Levitt look East Asian?

by Anonymousreply 19April 12, 2018 2:47 PM

Will Smith does not do ANY independent movies, r19, nor does he do any "quiet box office" movies (unless you count the ones that bombed as "quiet").

Also, was he actually still a teen on Fresh Prince, or did he just play one?

I used to work at an entertainment mag and we did a blind items page.

I was saddled with writing a lot of them. I'd ask other editors to help pitch in with stuff they'd heard, but they didn't offer much help. Don't blame 'em.

Anyway, I'd change so much of the stuff to disguise who the people were that they didn't even make sense.

Eventually, the column went away.

Oh, obviously.

It couldn't possibly be fiction posted here by CDAN shills. Nope. It's direct from the unimpeachable victim themselves.

by Anonymousreply 27April 12, 2018 4:53 PM

Of course it could be fiction posted by CDAN, r27, but r3 was answering the question "how would anyone have known such details?" from r2.

The victim (if this blind is true) would have every reason to talk about it "off the record" -- I sure would.

by Anonymousreply 28April 12, 2018 5:07 PM

Enty is going to be interviewed on some radio show today. Wonder if he'll mention this blind? I'm surprised he's allowing an interview like this, Surrey his voice could lead to him being identified? I mean, he's surely pissed people off with his blinds before.

Bateman has been married forever to Paul Anka's daughter and isn't remotely sleazy on either side of the coin. No way it's him (if it's anyone).

by Anonymousreply 31April 12, 2018 5:32 PM

If this actor knowingly had unprotected sex while being positive, that's a crime. NDAs are invalid in that case.

by Anonymousreply 32April 12, 2018 5:40 PM

Because CDAN is fake, OP. They are known to make shit up, hence why BG refuses to use blinds from them.

by Anonymousreply 33April 12, 2018 5:41 PM

I mentioned in an earlier CDAN/Enty/gossip thread about how I used to send in anonymous tips - completely made up; some with unbelievable facts or information which could be easily verified - and nine times out of ten, they would inevitably be printed (of course, with the names removed and some info either edited out or changed). In short, Enty - as presumably many other gossip sites - will print any type of BS just to attract readers/clocks.

I believe the guy. Sure. I mean, the actor was the only person the guy had unprotected sex with. The only person, the single one person he had sex with as an escort. Right? Who wouldn't believe this?

by Anonymousreply 37April 12, 2018 6:01 PM

Leaving aside the fact that NDAs can't be enforced to cover up crime, the "victim" would not merely be forbidden to discuss his story with the media, he would be forbidden from disclosing it to anyone. Publishing means telling any third party.

Ricky Schroder, (one E, since he's not Dionne Warwick) who is 48 today (which means he is 4 times as old as he was when [italic]Silver Spoons[/italic] began and has been legal for 30 years), is (finally) divorced, so it can't be him. I'll kill myself if it is either of them.

While NDA can't be used to cover criminal actions, those would be pursued by a DA or grand jury. The victim would have to file a complaint and have the DA believe it enough to seek evidence of an arrest. Most NDA also require the signed party give the person notice if a subpoena for testimony is issued so they can fight the subpoena.

by Anonymousreply 45April 13, 2018 3:12 PM

R45 Interesting, thank you. Not as straightforward as it might seem.

I came of age in the early '80s and just as I'm tinkering around with the idea of having sex in college, Newsweek magazine does a cover story on the 'gay cancer'; I think they were still calling it GRID.

No, the government didn't do much, but the media was relentless in reporting stories. I saw a poor guy being interviewed on the news: he had a bandanna on his head; lesions over his body; emaciated, and he says 'we're not dying of AIDS, we're LIVING with AIDS'; and I thought how tragic. The guy was probably dead within a year, and a painful death it was.

Geraldo and Donahue did extensive shows on it, sending home one clear message: Gay = AIDS = Death.

After Rock Hudson's diagnosis went public, the National Enq. put a screen shot of Daniel kissing Krystle on Dynasty -- back then people weren't sure if casual kissing could transmit the disease. So many men saw their sexual prime being wasted, but, hey, at least we were alive.

You didn't want to die? You didn't have sex. Eventually, I relaxed enough to have some very safe fun and have been tested a few times much to the amusement of my doctors when I describe what I engage in.

Decades later, no cure. Strides in treatment that have made people think AIDS is a chronic condition in which one can live a normal life. Perhaps that's true for some, but others? Not so much.

If you're at all apprehensive about having unsafe sex with someone whose history you're unsure of then don't do it.

The NDA means ZERO if he caught an STD from the closet case, and it matters not of the STX is herpes or HIV. It’s illegal to infect anyone with a sexually disease, transmitted disease, that you already know you already have. It matters not of you wore condoms, it is the responsibility of the person who has the infectious disease to either abstain, or have sex with another partner who is also poz.

You cannot mitigate transmission or consequences thereof, via an NDA, no matter what your freakin attorneys tell you.

You know how people sue Monsanto and end up with billions in a class action lawsuit filed by former employees? Well, this is sorta like that.

This is why I tell people that NDA are absolutely WORTHLESS. They’re worthless in dozens of other ways, too, btw, and unenforceable if the person you had sign it know their way around the legal system, or hires an attorney who will immediately delegitimize the NDA some other attorney wrote up.

Not purposefully, but knowing it was a possibility.
