Al Pacino was a prostitute?

Oh, here is the link.

Scent of a gigolo

I think he's fibbing. Do women really pay younger men for sex?

Scent of a mythomaniac

As if -

He's making shit up because Beverly is putting on the major squeeze for even more major Child Support.

I don't find that too far fetched. Older women have "taken in" younger men before. Particularly widowed ones. He didn't say he was paid money, just given food and a place to stay. Women want more than just sex, most want companionship also. He could leave at any time.

Who knows, he might have had some males too and just doesn't want to admit it. He sure would've had a larger clientele and made money.

I could see him selling his ass. Young Al was hot.

[quote]My customers were women.

Al PacinHO

That whole situation probably looked more like this.

He didn't need to do any prep work for Cruising.

He

Sucked

COCK

He presented 20 year old hole, no doubt.

Didn't David Soul of Starsky and Hutch admit that he was a prostitute for men early in his career?

Actors inventing stories of their youth to make themselves sound more unconventional?

Nah! Never!

I thought that was Thomas Jane of Hung, R14. But could have been Soul too.

Well R16, he does have an arrest record and mugshot. He did also attend a NYC performing arts school where he performed very poorly in his academic courses.

Oh Beverly wants more money....thats a shocker (not).Him as trade....i can/cannot see it. But then having ventured onto 42nd street a few times.In the early days,yes...men were out hustling sex.It actually happened. (Not me before you tramps start)

He was selling his ass in Sicily. Apparently there is a market for 20 y/o cocks and asses out there. Or was.

[R17]

Wasn't Pacino in a gang,hence the record. I don't know if the gang would allow him to trick...unless they all did.Which is hard to swallow

Maybe instead of getting jumped into the gang, he got fucked-in, R20?

Or they pimped him out?

HEs a hOOR NOT A PROSTATUTE !!!!!

His mother must have been so proud.

Hot.

This "older woman" must have been something else if he woke up each morning feeling like 'not really loving himself.'

What the hell happened to his looks? He bears no trace of the li’l hot to death stud he was.

He took too many loads, R28.

Stop slutshaming, OP.

or slutshamming, Al

You gotta do whatcha gotta do.

I don't think it's that far-fetched.

I 've read quite a lot about him over the years and I do not recall him ever living in Sicily as a youth. He had substance abuse problems, drugs and alcohol when in high school and I thought he lived with his grandparents for a while but all of them were in NYC. Al is NYC thru & thru.

Supposedly, Al spent some time in Sicily after dropping out of high school, and that's where he became a whore.

Young Al was hot.

I could see men, errrr, excuse me, "women" paying him for sex then.

I remember Liza dated him back in the late 70s. When that ended, Liza took up with her stage manager Mark Gero, who had a striking resemblance to the young Pacino and who was rumored to have a huge cock. Makes me wonder if Pacino was similarly endowed.

My friend, a gay guy, found himself in a situation where the older lady who took him in wanted sex or at least some sort of sexual interaction with him.

My friend was homeless after a series of bad decisions and a family friend, a wealthy widow, offered him to live rent-free in her big house in exchange for walking her dog and doing some other light errands. My friend also had access to one of her cars and the work the lady required was minimal so he thought that he had it made. Except, after a few weeks, the old woman would burst in on him while he was in the shower, climb into bed with him, snuggle with him on the couch while stroking his leg, etc. He knew that the old bat wanted more than just a dog walker.

Of course, after rejecting the woman's advances one too many times, she came up with a reason to evict him with no warning. She accused him of stealing, started screaming and threatening to call the cops, and that was the end of that.

Maybe something similar happened to Al.

Side profile mugshot.

sure, Al, the notorious sicilian women of the 50s who paid gigolos for sex! OF COURSE!!

The "old woman" was probably a priest who took him in.

R39 here--my friend isn't as good looking or as charismatic as Al Pacino

Probably explains why he was such a natural, fitting in Cruising.

Forgive my naivety, but would Beverly be getting much more money? Their kids are 18 now.

I remember him wandering around Hells Kitchen in the 80s in a samurai costume looking batshit crazy - definitely bipolar

Isn't he like 5'5"? He'd have to play up his vulnerable, Little Boy Lost "charm" to trick or find sugar.

Here's his Sicilian Godmother.

[quote] the notorious sicilian women of the 50s who paid gigolos for sex!

We're notoriously voracious.

R49 is why I love this site.

Did he have a clean hole?

Depardieu has admitted to being a male hustler and I have no doubt Pacino and others were as well. Why we are still shocked by people starting out in show business and being prostitutes to make money or get a foot in the door shocks me. The more aware we are the more naïve we become or maybe it's a case of Oh please make it not be true!

I mean even Billy Wilder admitted to being a gigolo when he was young. He claims he danced with women because he was doing an article on it. Sure Billy.

All these male hustlers and gigolos claiming they turned tricks for women. SURE, JAN!

Inspired by Al's prostitution whore story?

[quote]All these men hustler(....) claiming they turned tricks for women. SURE, JAN!

Then, that's why Pacino is surrounded by so many gay men ?!

The guy is an actor always out for a photo op. Never heard of bearding on the red carpet? And maybe just maybe he's bi.

R52 I've wondered if Holden's self-disgust in Sunset Boulevard ("Why not get the vicun~a? The lady's buying...") draws at all on Wilder's gigolo time.

Al really lost his looks quickly.

He looks great in Godfather and Godfather II, but soon thereafter, he looked awful.

What a whore. Spreading his ass for strange Sicilian men.

He was beautiful when young. Not a trace of it remains.

Young Pacino. He was only hot for awhile, but you have to remember he didn't make it big until after 30.

Pensive.

I’ve heard people say he’s gayfor years. Deeplycloseted.

Whore boys of Babylon

He would have made a great Modigliani both as an actor and as a subject for one of his paintings.

He should have turned tricks at the Vatican. They would have kept him warm, fed, and busy.

Do you think he was a top or bottom? Or any which way for money?

R61 at 20 he made it plenty big enough for the Mafiosi punks in Palermo.

R67, Top for the Franciscans, Vers for the Benedictines, power bottom for Sicilian nonnas.

He was no De Niro.

Al Pacino is gay.

[quote]He would have made a great Modigliani both as an actor and as a subject for one of his paintings.

Gerard Philipe was a hot Modigiliani in Les Amants de Montparnasse.

So did he sleep with anyone to get his big break?

Gore Vidal was probably the 'older Sicilian woman.'

Welcome back from your fifty year coma, OP. I'm sure you'll surprised by many other things that have been common knowledge for decades.

(R75) There are people, here, who are newcomers, they've known the Data Lounge existence for one or two years.......So, yes "we"/I are very surprised and a little bit "choked" because it's the first time I've heard Pacino was a closeted gay man. Incredibly surprising when you see the list of women who shared his life. Odd way to be gay.

[quote]power bottom for Sicilian nonnas.

This seems biologically difficult.

There have never been any credible stories of Pacino hooking up with men. With closeted actors, there will always be stories because they’re not celibate, and people will talk. Nothing like that with Pacino.

He sure was gorgeous from the early- to mid-70s. Dog Day Afternoon is one of my favorite performances by anyone ever. (Or at least it used to be—I might find Al’s hysterics a bit much if I rewatched it.)

Well, he fooled you, R76, didn't he? Deflection.

R73. Well duh. You answered your own question.

I’m sure it was a man.

R70 - and DeNiro was no Depardieu

Gerard Philipe was one of the greats. A beautiful man who had a range from Gabin to Brando to Fairbanks. A tremendously gifted actor who died before he was forty.

I told Bruce(no we are not friends) at FF he had to have a Philipe festival.

Hot hot HOT, R82. Now if only they coulda gotten that cockblocking female out of the way.

R84, to be fair, she's the one forcing De Niro's hand on Depardieu's cock, but yeah, I agree: she needs to leave.

R82, De Niro sure isn't Depardieu, I'm happy to say.

There's a whole decade of photos missing from when Pacino was in his 20s during the 1960s — OP's photo is from 1961. He was probably at his hottest then. Who knows how much whoring around he did then.

We do.

He definitely got much hotter in the first half of the 70s, r87.

Al looks like a twink in OP's photo. Maybe he did twink porn. Was that a thing then?

calm down, Pacino was NEVER "gorgeous". He was passably attractive for few years, but let's not forget that he was legally a midget even then.

what actor in hollywood wasn't a prostitute?

Presenting his hole in Sicily is probably how he got his big break, R73.

He wasn’t loving himself but definitely loving someone....

Greaseball

He was more than passably attractive. That is a beautiful young soulful looking Italian face. And they are not that uncommon in Italy.

Ugly...

The older Sicilian women Al slept with:

He's no Nic Cage

[quote]I’ve heard people say he’s gayfor years. Deeplycloseted.

I'm going to tell you something: we're all queer.

Was that a mugshot for prostitution?

Possession of a concealed weapon, r101.

Was that a gun in his pocket or was he just happy to see you?

I could see men paying to hit that.

[quote]Al Pacino is gay (R71)

Do you have any evidence of that ?

Pacino lived for seven years with Marthe Keller.....What kind of world is it : gay men sharing their private life with women ???!!!!

I know a gay guy who lived a number of years with a woman. Don't know if it was seven but long enough that I thought it was strange. But I only knew for certain after. But they could have been simply roommates.

It's good when you stop trying to figure people out.

[quote]It's good when you stop trying to figure people out

You're right. But as we are in 2019....Anyway, I'm too optimistic and stupid...

You fail to get women. They do not usually pay for sex, but they very much do take in young lost boys to feed and fuck. It was somewhat of a thing in Europe with the recent refugee crisis, or is. Al could be gay and the story about the old sugar momma could still be true.

All Italian men are bisexual.

Preposterous! Such a thing would never happen, but only in the movies!

"I loved the Catholic church so much that I told a priest he could come and stay the night with me. Tee-hee!"

Pacino lives with women, not only dating. He is straight as an arrow. There is always a woman in his life (actress, singer, artist). His girlfriends list is very long....

The DL wants him to be gay but there is no "testimony"of that : no names, nothing concrete, just rumours.

Scarecrow (1973)

How do they know he is gay ? Do they live under his bed ? Do these people know him intimately ?

As disgusting as they are, fish don't pay for sex.

The Data Lounge has been good over the years at predicting which celebrities are/were gay and years before they come out to the public : DL had a "very good Gaydar". Now, we have a "problem" : a lot of threads where all the famous or semi-famous people, are listed as gay ! It dilutes our ability to focus on the celebrities who are GAY IN REAL LIFE.

When you go on DL, suddenly, everybody is gay...and now we can't believe anymore what we read on DL. What a pity !

Who is claiming he's gay? It's just obvious that he sucked cock

R113 has provided irrefutable evidence. Pacino is gay as a jay!

[quote]Pacino is gay as a jay!

Prove it! Do you want him to be gay or is he gay ? because there is a big difference between your desire and the reality....

[quote] All Italian men are bisexual.

Yup. Tell them they're pretty, or a stud, and they start purring like a kitten.

In happened in Tennessee Williams' mind, so it happened.

[quote] Prove it!

I saw him with my own two eyes. He was outside the church, on all fours, getting pounded by the priest.

[QUOTE]The DL wants him to be gay but there is no "testimony"of that : no names, nothing concrete, just rumours.

Maybe he’s gay for pay.

He's an actor. Guilty right there.

I call bullshit. No straight man would feel shitty after fucking a woman for food. Just none.

Also, he looks like a little slut in OP's photo.

[quote]No straight man would feel shitty after fucking a woman for food.

Then, can you explain why so many women shared his life ? He lived with those women and not just dated them as it is said (R112). It's strange for a gay man, isn't it ???

[quote]He was outside the church, on all fours, getting pounded by the priest.

Sure Jan!!!!

Tell us where and when ?

You have a very special sense of humour......

[quote] Then, can you explain why so many women shared his life ? He lived with those women and not just dated them as it is said ([R112]). It's strange for a gay man, isn't it ???

Uh, I think the implication was that he was a straight guy temporarily doing a gay for pay hustler deal. Get a grip.

All those Godfather actors were bi. Starting with Brando. I don't see why so many people are invested with actors being totally straight. Even Elia Kazan who was a pussy hound had a total crush on Brando and I'm sure he would have slept with him if he could have. Maybe he did. No straight man is so obsessed with a male actor like that. It makes no sense. I can't imagine any actress I'd be so obsessed with if I were a director.

ALL THAT TO COME TO THE CONCLUSION : AL PACINO IS STRAIGHT AND HE WAS ONLY GAY FOR PAY.

THEN THREAD CLOSED.

The silly thing is that he told this story, embellishing that he hooked around for older, Sicilian women -- as if women (ever) pay men for sex, and elderly Sicilian women in 1960 nonetheless...

When I think of asses, a man's ass, something comes out of me.

This thread tell us nothing about Pacino. Except we always knew he was straight. The rest are rumours and nothing else.

Pacino is gay ? How is it informed ?

Can you remind us what is the definition of being GAY ?

(R79) Can we still trust the DL's gossips ?

[quote]No straight man is so obsessed with a male actor like that.

Very special case. Brando and Kazan were each blessed with genius, and had the chemistry to make great work. No way sexuality (at some level) wouldn't have added to that unique blend.

Some AL Pacino fan is triggered by this thread.

Al Pacino being "gay" is just laughable.

Get over it guido. Your idol, Al Mr. Scarface Pacino sucked cocks for money.

(R140) Being gay for pay doesn't mean not being straight...

Is he still living with Mental Dohan ?

[quote]Some Al Pacino fan is triggered by this thread.

Sorry, but it has nothing to do with "being a fan". The "Pacino is gay" has never been dissected on DL. And when you don't name names, the posts are not really interesting.

People who know something about his "supposed gayness" should tell us if "something happened"while he was filming and directing "Looking For Richard" with Kevin SPACEY, Richard Cox etc.....What kind of relationships he had with these actors and above all why was he "so closed" to Arnaldo SANTANA the stunning and handsome actor who played in the movie CRUISING.

That would be much more interesting and serious than "shits who don't name names", don't forget it's an anonymous internet board...so, let's go.

Did Al bottom?
