I think it makes sense he went to Paris considering he had the bag with him. Just because he wasnā€™t photographed doesnā€™t mean he didnā€™t attend. Page Six would have gotten the guest list or seen him there.

Almost all of the stuff for the event starts about 10 hours ago so that's a good gauge that is probably when it was. Even with the short travel time 6:30 in London seems unrealistic.

*** This is the last post in the previous thread. NOT THE OP but I agree with some of it***

Brandon will be fine. He knows who he is and isn't afraid to show it. Confidence is what people in this industry are looking for. I wouldn't be surprised if they offer him a bigger role next.

Richard on the other hand is being very secretive in hopes it won't shatter his strong leading white straight male image. He wants the cake and he wants to eat it too. If he didn't care about the big $$ he would've stayed in the UK and not make the move to LA to break in to Hollywood aka the big $$.

It makes me think that he genuinely thought the public and the press would buy the "roommates" story so he wouldn't have to worry about not getting the big mainstream straight roles he wants (Bond etc.) Again with the double standard in Hollywood that straight actors can play the leading roles but non straight ones are only cast as such. And I believe that this is his biggest fear. He just comes off as someone who is afraid of showing the world who he is and would rather cater to the masses. The exact opposite of Brandon.

R110, I think that post give one too much credit, and the other too little.

If Richard is cynical, it's not like he doesn't have reason to be.

And Brandon obviously isn't wholly confident in himself, certainly as a public figure. And why would he be? He's not long out of college, he's still a beginner.

by Anonymousreply 112June 21, 2019 6:27 AM

r110 Richard's always been secretive. Even when it comes to dating women. Yes, we know a few things but that's it. Something that you can't quite compare to Brandon since their relationship hasn't reached the length of time of Ellie or Jenna. I don't think it's fear. It's just who he is. He likes to focus on the work.

What is there to understand about whatā€™s going on? They are two men who have been together for at the very least 6 months but likely a bit more, clearly obsessed with each other, and canā€™t get enough of each other. donā€™t care if people think or know they are together and are clearly out and comfortable to their family and friends about the relationship.

R119 Yep, thatā€™s pretty much it. I became invested in the thread solely for their relationship as I didnā€™t care for them before as actors. Luckily, I binged Bodyguard and both seasons of 13RW was well as their interviews, and I can happily say that I am now a fan of their professional work.

by Anonymousreply 125June 21, 2019 8:00 AM

R124 I think he would be okay with being open about it on his own terms (like how he would post about Sam on his IG). He just wants to be in control of his personal life and that includes his sexuality and relationships in general. I think him and Richard will be okay if they just block out all of the noise and continue to build.

He comes across as an extremely positive thinking person overall so I donā€™t think so. And why waste their time doing what theyā€™re doing if he believes itā€™s ultimately going to fail? Spending time away from Charlie and his friends.. nah, he thinks itā€™s solid Iā€™m sure

by Anonymousreply 127June 21, 2019 8:04 AM

I doubt Brandon is worried about a "phase". He may feel that he, as the perceived "gay" one, is the stimulus for much of the attention - especially if Richard's been able to fly under the radar with other boyfriends in the past.

by Anonymousreply 128June 21, 2019 8:04 AM

R128 I donā€™t think heā€™s worried about it being a phase for Richard himself, but I think heā€™s probably annoyed by the insinuations made by the media regarding that. Theyā€™re always talking about how shocking it is since Richard has only publicly dated women - which is TRUE, but if Iā€™m his partner and Iā€™m reading that over and over again, it would start to seem like people are doubting the legitimacy of my relationship just because itā€™s same sex.

I def donā€™t think he meant these quotes in reference to Sam and him, because literally EVERYONE in the media wrote positive cutesy articles about them and their PDA. There was even a point where speculation was going around that they were engaged which people seemed happy about (ofcourse their reps both denied it).

by Anonymousreply 129June 21, 2019 8:08 AM

R126, there's some naivete to that, though. You can't date someone who's "hot" now and not feel the glare of the media spotlight. "Don't write stories about this, write about that." If the Marvel movie becomes a hit, and sequels are ordered, maybe Richard will become a bit more confident about being open (if still private). The paps can only do so many "roommates walking" posts before it becomes a non-story.

I didnā€™t think he could do comedy because heā€™s been in so many serious roles, but his comedic timing is so so great in this film. I would watch it mainly for him and his body (plus the romantic scene towards the end of beyond cute and hot).

I don't think Brandon can be compared to any previous girlfriend. I doubt he would do so, especially as he said "I like women." He and Richard may understand each other better than anyone has hitherto guessed.

by Anonymousreply 134June 21, 2019 8:14 AM

R110 - I agree with that as well but I don't see it as that black and white. R is certainly insecure and I agree that he probably doesn't want people to see the real him for that reason + it's the easier path to success that he wants. I share the idea that he probably thought they would get away with the roommates story (at least until they would be ready to publically come out as a couple if they stayed together) hence the lame article about B being an influential Hollywood figure. Which also answers the question people here ask occasionaly - the first pap photosets weren't definitely staged, at least not with R's knowledge. Someone might have sent them there but I doubt he was aware.

And I guess I get where his anxiety he talked about recently is coming from because hell, who wouldn't be anxious in a situation like this. It's sad that he feels the need to act like this because of the paps, society pressure or whatever made him insecure, on the other hand, I feel like he's making it worse for himself as well (and it might come across as a bit hypocritical tbh). The public eye is the price that comes hand in hand with fame and wealth. That's just how it is. I hope he somehow manages to get it together without a cost (like his career, Brandon, mental health or whatever).

Brandon comes across as more confident but maybe a bit naive person. He seems like one of those people who wear the heart on their sleave, are very loyal and put their partners first (like both of his relationships with Sam and Richard show, judging by how differently they are presented). Guess it's up to Brandon if they last - how passive he is, what are his expectations etc. and how are they handling communication.

I don't know them or anything, it's just the impression I get from watching from the safety of this anonymous sub. For all I know, I might be Věry off.

R135 I honestly just think Richard is private. Yes, he most likely is nervous about being in a public relationship with a man for the first time, but regardless he wouldnā€™t talk about his partner even if they were female. Heā€™s focused on life ambition, but itā€™s clear heā€™s career focused. This is the same guy who responded to a question about ā€œwhatā€™s next?ā€ during golden globes interviews (right after winning) by saying Rocketman and 1917 were his next projects and the interviewer was like ā€œummmmmm I meant parties BUT OKAYā€ hahaha.

I know itā€™s already been concluded Richard couldnā€™t have gone to Paris yesterday (which I agree with, he couldnā€™t have made it back to the hotel in the time he did) but I thought Iā€™d chip in to say, I donā€™t think him having the bag with him has to mean he travelled anywhere yesterday. He had it with him the other morning when he met B-hating liar fangirl too, remember? Itā€™s why I personally thought they must have just had the hotel for the night of his birthday and he was going home.

I came across this interview with Richard talking about his childhood. Itā€™s interesting and I think Richard probably still struggles with the memories of being bullied, though I think heā€™s more accepting of himself as heā€™s gotten older. But the fact that his bullies would pick on him for being gay simply because he played a kid who got raped by a man... Iā€™m just so happy heā€™s never let that keep him from being himself and also playing other gay roles.

Yeah, he must have had it rough. There was another interview in which he talks about being bullied on a daily basis and he seemed to think that it happens to everyone and that it was just par for the course of growing up, and the reporter had to stop him and say no, actually, it doesn't happen to everyone. Imagine having to deal with that shit so much that you actually grow up thinking it's a normal part of growing up?

I also wonder about the kids who tormented him in school. Do any of them regret it now, or are they jealous of his success? (And the fact that he grew up to be a fucking hottie.)

ā€œThereā€™s a big problem with masculinity and homosexuality that they canā€™t somehow go hand in hand,ā€ he said.

R192 I don't think he meant he likes women when he said that. I think he was using it as an example of the fact that he never came out officially with a statement. By saying (and I'm paraphrasing), "I never came out and said 'I like men... I like women'" he was just using it as an example of what someone might have to say when coming out.

Heā€™s not coming out as not gay, because he didnā€™t COME OUT as gay in the first place. That is part of what he was saying! The media decided that was that. He himself has said he came out as bisexual. Who knows what the full story is, but this interview was about him being not straight, which clearly, he isnā€™t. He just didnā€™t put a specific label on himself. He may be bi. He may indeed be gay. He may not even HAVE a label that he feels fits. (Sounds like heā€™s still figuring it out to me personally.) God, this is exhausting. All of this was said already! This is why I asked if people would please mind having the conversation in the thread dedicated solely to the interview. Iā€™m not trying to ā€œcontrol the threadā€, not at all, itā€™s just that so much of this has already been SAID.

Do you think the reason the airplane dude believe Richard was alone is because Brandon didnā€™t sit next him and they walk out further apart so not to get caught together? I wouldnā€™t be surprise because itā€™s similar to what they r doing now in London... idk for me I would be exhausted but I guessed Richard is still paranoid...

by Anonymousreply 256June 21, 2019 3:55 PM

R251 No. He didnā€™t come out as gay. He came out, according to himself, as bi. After the Instagram post, he was out as not straight publicly. But he apparently wasnā€™t meaning to make that a coming out post, and he didnā€™t say ā€œHi Iā€™m only into guysā€ ever. He has REFERRED to himself as gay since it was known he isnā€™t straight, which is a different thing. As has been pointed out to you many times, many people, especially of his age and younger, use it as an umbrella term. It is also possible it was the label he felt best described him at the time. Heā€™s still pretty young, maybe heā€™s got some figuring out left to do. Thatā€™s not a bad thing.

Nah, airplane dude lied.

He tweeted out the flight number.

His next tweet was a reply to a day old tweet referencing Brandon and homophobes. He asked the tweeter if "he" was at that Boston event. Richard was tagged in many tweets about that event (some with video of him present), many much newer than the tweet to which airplane dude asked the question. I think airplane dude was asking about Brandon with his "he" question.

He knew the 411.

He said something like ā€œletā€™s leave him aloneā€, didnā€™t he?

Gay is not used as an umbrella in these current times, especially by young kids. Anyone that is an actual Bisexual or Homosexual would know it.

More than ever Bisexuals are coming out as defined by their own sexuality, Bisexual. This is not the 1970 were Bi people were scared into calling themselves gay or straight. Especially young people today, they are more bold and identifying themselves as Bi.

On the other hand Queer is becoming an umbrella term when in other decades was used as a term to identify (whether negatively or positively) gay people.

I think it's safe to say that Brandon would know exactly how the word "gay" would be perceived by the public. By the majority of people it's perceived as gay only (not bisexual or whatever). If you say that you're gay in an interview that usually means that you're gay/only like men. I doubt he would use it as an umbrella term because only some people would even consider it as an umbrella term whereas most other people would have never heard about gay being used as an umbrella term like queer for example. He would have used a different term if he wanted to leave his sexuality ambiguous.

R346, "I love your work", "I love you words of inspiration" is not the same as "I love you." In the interview Brandon refuses to be drawn when the interviewer questions him re followers. He put a clear line in the sand: those in his life and those observing from the outside. Celebrity is based on identification mixed with hero worship, but it's worth reflecting when the mark is overstepped - when identification moves into the realm of "speaking for" as if you know X.

As someone who works in the information field, we have done countless of surveys and research to target LGBT media targeted at young and old.

He gave thoughtful answers and didnā€™t sugarcoat the challenges. So the article made me admire him more because he could have taken the easy path of hiding his sexuality in Hollywood as many do then I came to DL and all hell had broken lose! Lol.

Man, the irony of Brandon speaking passionately and openly, at length in that interview, about how much he wishes people could stop classifying as ā€œthe gay actorā€ or ā€œthe straight actorā€, the ā€œgay movieā€ etc, how it should just be ā€œan actorā€ ā€œa love storyā€ etc in that interview, how heā€™s just a person and wishes to just be seen as such... and then some people on here utterly fixated on ā€œbut is he gay or bi, he should have said whether heā€™s gay or biā€ to the exclusion of everything else other than whether he is gay or not. Itā€™s something.

R355 We're not talking about media, we're talking about how individuals refer to themselves. Queer is ONE of the umbrella terms used currently. Gay is the other, sadly. I myself (20 something) have gotten into various arguments with people younger than 20 who were complaining about those like me who don't think the word should be used that way. Anyway, I'm leaving this discussion. You have multiple people in this thread telling you that they do see gay used as an umbrella term and still you insist on acting like it's not a thing that's happening; it's just just willful ignorance at this point so there's no point in arguing.

I think Brandon will mostly be a TV actor. Nothing wrong with that. It's a steady paycheck if the show is successful.

I don't think his reasoning has anything to do with his lack of ability to portray a hetosexual man. I've never seen his work on 13rw so I have no idea his skill level but he'll be fine.

I think R and B have had very meaningful talks about this.

R417 I didnā€™t finish GOT but I remember finding Kit impressive on the scenes I did watch. I just found Richard to be completely committed and show stopping in Bodyguard - I was so stuck my seat while watching all six hours back to back because of his performance. Gold derby experts did suspect that Kit may sneak in since 1) GOT wont ever be nominated again for an Emmy and 2) he was already nominated in the past for best supporting actor.

My guess is that either Sterling or Kit gets snubbed - I could see sterling being snubbed since heā€™s won Emmys already multiple times for this show AND the OJ vs The People limited series.

Of course he woudln't admit to losing sleep over the BAFTA snub. That would make him sound petty. And Richard is too aware of how the PR game works to admit something like that. He knows exactly how to answre. But it seems like he actually cared a lot about not getting nominated. And Rocketman for sure doesn't require him to do promo for an Emmy for a different TV show. Netflix also can't force him to do as much promo as he did. They wouldn't even be able to force him to do the Bodyguard Emmy screenings but of course he would agree to that. But what Richard has done with all those articles about him in magazines was mostly arranged by his publicist and not Netflix. So he surey wants to be nominated very badly.

R449 That sounds pretty canon to me. Brandon is big into his weed and music, so makes sense. Also, I remember that one time a few weeks back when we all suspect that Richard flew back to LA (and was followed by the person spotting them with Charlie), they were both silent on social media until like 8:30PM PST which was hilarious. The marathon sex has to be a common occurrence for these two. It really does seem like R452 said, that they only leave the house for Charlie or brunch/dinner. They seem like a pretty secular couple. Brandonā€™s friends are probably used to him being like this and Richard most likely doesnā€™t have many GOOD friends in Cali so works for both of them.

R451 I havenā€™t seen two of the performances nominated so I canā€™t speak to all of them, but I wouldnā€™t have thought he was any less deserving of a nom than Hugh Grant was (who I thought was terrific, by the way) or Cumberbatch. I thought he was equally as deserving of the nod.

by Anonymousreply 455June 21, 2019 9:31 PM

The BAFTAā€™s also keep nods to 4 spots and do not (for the acting categories) make a distinction between series and limited series. If they had separated out acting categories Cumberbatch and Grant would have been in a leading actor limited series category. When you lump in performances like that, someone also worthy is not getting nominated (i.e. Richard or Lennie James for Save Me).

by Anonymousreply 456June 21, 2019 9:39 PM

When they get quiet like this I assume they're wrapped in their bubble.

I imagine it was some sort of female validation. She didn't mean it in a bad way of course, but it was still gloating. I imagine it's how many of the fangirls felt yesterday in this thread. "he's not a fag nanana" It's harmless gloating I guess.

R483 R485 I think Brandonā€™s smile and personality drew him in when they first met those few times and then the sex sealed the deal. Bflynn is just too good of a guy to pass up and the timing was beautiful. He was the impetus for Richard to finally get up out of London. Iā€™m sure Richard wouldā€™ve eventually, but probably but not at this quick pace.

Iā€™m curious if either were familiar with the bodyguard or 13RW (in terms of being a viewer) before meeting each other.

According to the linked article, it appears that 1917 actors in costume were finally spotted up in the northeast of England about 20 minutes away from Darlington (where the girl on Twitter mentioned her mom works at a hotel that R would be staying in) so perhaps he will finally be going up there to do some shooting this weekend/week

It's actually really funny going through Brandon's IG posts - like there's a good amount of famous & older gay men leaving playful/flirty comments - ex: Billy Eichner, Xavier Dolan, other popular gay writers/twitter celebs, etc. Also if anyone has seen Brandon's interview for Persol Eyewear - it's called #GoodPointWellMade - the interviewer, an older guy, is so clearly flirting with him it's kind of amazing. That interview is also really good actually - it really made me go damn he's cute.

R493 OH MY GOSH, the interviewer 100% is flirting with him. ā€œDid it teach you how to get good looks?ā€ and Brandon says ā€œno my mom taught me thatā€ and was def flirting back. I totally believe Richard threw stuff at him and Brandon flirted back not thinking anything of it at first, but Iā€™m sure the texts became more graphic and blunt on Richardā€™s end. I could see him saying ā€œwhen I fuck her, Iā€™m only thinking about youā€. That Scottish Charm.

also Xavier Dolan is the THIRSTIEST. He wants any young twink in Hollywood lolol. I actually suspect Brandon will work with him after 13RW concludes:

by Anonymousreply 496June 21, 2019 11:31 PM

Ok so i was just thinking about what B and R have on their slate for the rest of the year. B - well nothing that we know of but that could change! All he has for sure is 13RW promo which probably won't take up more than a few weeks for him at most. Looks Can Kill is done filming. So his summer and fall looks pretty open as of right now. Then we have Richard - after he finishes 1917 (which seemingly will be wrapped up by the end of next week or so??) he's basically done until Eternals starts filming in mid-September. But of course he'll need to start training for that and probably have some stunt training/nutrition etc. But I think that can easily be done in LA. So I'm gonna guess once he's done 1917 he and B will be in LA for most of the rest of the summer.
