DL Fav Brian J Smith comes out on the cover of Attitude Magazine

Finally!

About time!!! With that being said I mean it could have been said before I am almost certain him and Max from sense 8 fucked!

He is gay? I am shocked. SHOCKED!

Is he still with his twink boyfriend or did they break up?

Anyway so happy for him

Anyway so happy for him

Bro?

Here is the article

I have some upsetting new for y’all

Brian has come out as queer

Here is the whole article (first page is above)

I thought he was already out, but if not good for him!

Wow, that whore finally did it, good for him. I mean, there's no way that glass closet would have been tenable anyway, what with all those guys he's plowed through over the years...

Good for him!

Good for him. The road to going public is not an easy one.

N.B. He's hot stuff

Aww, that pasty hairless body is so delicious.

I’ll take your serving, R15, if you’re not hungry. The man is sex on a stick.

I can see how film stars are reluctant to come for fear of not getting roles, but if your bread and butter career is on TV, then I think sexuality isn't all that big a deal.

Brian likely sees TV as his future and coming out doesn't matter all that much these days.

I keep thinking, perhaps wishful thinking, that once one celebrity comes out that it will trigger others to do so. I'm still waiting, realize that I might be waiting for a long time.

He’ll be the first openly gay action hero, though certainly not the first LGBTQ one.

A couple of spidermen, an iron man, a fast and furious one, and a Belgian one come to mind.

Those videos of him making out with two of his Sense8 male costars at pride in Brazil were glorious ... and yes, also quite telling!

R20

Ahem r19!

He doesn't even mention his fight to stay closeted as an actor? I wanted to hear him talk about it.

A trip down memory lane, though I give him credit he hasn't deleted it

Another

I usually like Harol Baez's work, but these photos are awful. They make his many many moles look even more malignant.

She has commented on her IG!

R10 He likes going to XXL when he lived in London? I wonder if he frequented the infamous darkroom...

For sure r27, he talks about in the interview how much he liked the hedonistic gay clubs of Berlin.

Congrats, bitch! Now let’s see that onlyfans page

Good for him. Let's see how much work he will get now. Especially straight roles.

Lachlan Buchanan (also gay) liked the IG post. Cel Spellman liked it too :)

I like him on Stargate Universe.

Didn't bother with Sense8 since it got cancelled.

Shenshate.

[quote]He’ll be the first openly gay action hero, though certainly not the first LGBTQ one.

I personally count Luke Evans as an action hero - he appeared in THE HOBBIT as a heroic archer, two Fast and Furious films, and MIDWAY which comes out this week is an action packed film about The Battle of Midway and he plays a fighter pilot.

I LOVE HIM !!!!!!!!

R23 R24 I live his closeted Tweets.

Do you think he and Max Riemelt went back to their room and fucked liked bunnies after they kissed at r21?

I’m glad he’s finally out. When I knew him in 2012-2013, he told me the not coming out was all management. That he didn’t hide anything from anyone, he just kept up the glass closeting in the press and media because his manager advised it for the kinds of jobs he was after. He also said his immediate family knew at that time, but he hadn’t told his old country grandparents in NC that he was close to.

He fucked Quinto. Better get her checked.

We been knew.

Here's his boyfriend.

Oh please, as if he’s bother with that common twink.

R42 did you miss them vacationing in upstate New York last month? Brian was seen chopping wood in one of Daniel's stories. Oh yeah, then there's the fact that Daniel congratulated Brian on his birthday last year and literally said "my boyfriend" in the caption. Of course said post was deleted, but I swear it happened.

If you want to sit in a glass closet for years, at least shut your mouth and don't give silly interviews or tweet embarrassing shit. Those tweets are incredibly embarrassing in retrospect. It's great that he finally came out, but I also lost a lot of respect for him. We make fun of Russell Tovey here all the time for his masculine statements, but at least he was always out and isn't a fraud and claimed he liked pussy to get better jobs and a bigger career.

Who’s next? Miles Heizer, we’re looking at you...

LOL that tweet where he says "Me Likey Girls" -- reminds me of Michelle Rodriguez with "Michi Likes Sausage"

"Those tweets are incredibly embarrassing in retrospect."

Maybe, but a lot of stars who are now out were closeted at some point. That's not unusual. Look at Luke Evans and his "I'm in love with my female publicist!" period. It's more common for stars to come out eventually than it is for them to be out from day one.

Maybe r47, but no one forces closeted actors to say stupid shit like 'Me Likey Girls".

Bottom?

I know someone who hooked up with him, and apparently Smith topped r49.

r48, he probably wasn't FORCED to say it but I bet his "people" pressured him to make a denial

Btw, over the years there have been many posters with stories about Smith's grindr habits. He's supposedly a top.

R50 Not surprised because his boyfriend looks like a bottom.

Celebs are supposed to present a mass appeal friendly image. They are still being told that being gay is too niche and has no mass appeal and that it very well might scare off casting agents, producers and studio execs to cast openly gay guys for leading (straight) roles. And talent agencies want to make the big bucks and not waste resources on clients who chose to come out and limit the agency's means to make serious profit off that client.

Just look at the trolls posting their "I can't buy so-and-so in that role, takes me out of the whole damn show!" comments.

Good for Brian J Smith to come out.

R53 Being gay IS niche. It is acceptable for the mainstream as long as you’re discrete like Luke Evans.

More gossip about him! Is he good in bed?

I love Tay

So...how long until he and Gus Whatshisface become the obnoxious "super gay" couple that you people are going to obsess over for the next two years?

That wouldn't work. They're both total tops.

R58, LOL!

He come out as "queer" or gay?

R9 Lame... at least he's out, but maybe he's bisexual.

Is he GAY or {shudder} "queer"?

If only that had been answered nine posts in

It was? Because in the agenda-driven article I read, the author is the one using the term "queer" over and over and over.

Direct me to BJS choosing "queer" as his label and not gay.

R64 He mention "queer hug" nothing more, he don't was clear about his orientation, but he clearly don't identifies as "gay". I think he's bisexual.

r65 Nice try troll - but he didn't say growing up bisexual in the south - it was growing up gay...

R66 Where's he said "growing up gay"? I did not see he saying that he's gay, just not straight.

I hate these "profiles" where the reporter narrates the story peppering quotes from the subject but the reader has no idea how much has been filtered out or shaped to conform to the story the journalist wants to tell. But beyond that, this particular writer's prose is too melodramatic and at times contradicts the facts as stated. For example, a paragraph on the "Tea Party" takeover of the Republican party with the election of Ronald Reagan - he means the Moral Majority (Fallwell's branding - Robertson, etc. all tried their own branding but Fallwell's took), an explicitly conservative evangelical political project fusing libertarian economics, reactionary attack on the small progress women and gays and racial minorities had made in the 60s and 70s. The Tea Party was an astro-turf Koch media operation that downplayed social conservatism in hopes of whittling the federal government back down to pre-new deal impotency. Why am I not surprised that Attitude has no fact checkers because that never should have made it past first draft. Also, if he is 38, he was born during Reagan's first term so I doubt he has any memories of the actual Reagan administration - Clinton and Bush II would be the presidents during his teens. Small point but makes me doubt how much of this is just the impressions of a mediocre "reporter" rather than a window into Smith's soul. Finally, phrases like LGBTQ youth and queer youth come off as too PC, especially during his youth, and the article is peppered with lamentations on his privilege of being a "cis man" and the mystical wonders of gender...Ugh

He's looked better. Much better. Those photos are horrible.

r67 the article is literally subtitled "growing up gay and terrified in suburban texas" but I'm sure you will ignore that because trolls gotta troll....

R70 I'm not a troll, I just wanted he saying that he's gay with his words, in the interview he don't mention that he's gay, only pc bullshit.

Well that was a useless puff piece that completely dodged the issue of the Hollywood closet and his active denials of his sexuality (I'm sure his publicist was even more emphatic when fielding questions from reporters and industry folks). If Sense8 was such a liberating experience why is he only coming out now when he is promoting a new series (he managed to plug 3 different projects throughout the articles - talk about product placement).

And I am not buying the contrast between Berlin vs New York bar/club scene - yeah Berlin is more overtly sexual and kinky in some places but to claim that NY gays are somehow more obsessed with masculinity than Berliners (the Leather and BDSM scenes are about as hyper masculine as you can get where the contrast between Doms and Subs literally forces you into heavily gendered roles). And I had to chuckle towards the end when he was praising the joys of authenticity in the least authentic coming out profile I have read in a while...

Attitude was always shit but they might as well just farm out the writing to publicists and cut out the expense of paying scribes to play act as "reporters" - the prose would probably be much more professional and, wait for it, authentic!

I wish he was more clear with his sexual orientation, It's practically ambiguous... But he preferred follow the PC agenda... Awful.

He and I sucked each other off in Chicago. I only knew his name was Brian at the time (this was pre-Sense8). And yes, we both swallowed. I fell in love with his Cavalier King Charles spaniel. He was nice.

"I'm not a troll, I just wanted he saying that he's gay with his words, in the interview he don't mention that he's gay, only pc bullshit."

Using right-wing talking points on a gay board is pretty trollish, btw, conservatives dismiss things like gay marriage as "too pc"

So who won the coming out poll?

R75 The classic "right-wing" rhetoric because I don't think as you, geez. grow up... and gay marriage is another thing don't fucking mix the things, moron.

Didn't even trend on Twitter...

R34, I think Luke Evans was back in when he played his action hero roles. Has he officially come out again in advance of the Midway role, or is he still being coy with the press?

R78 Not many people know who this guy is. It says a lot that he had to come out in an international magazine... he’s not a name in the States.

[QUOTE] Didn't even trend on Twitter...

Yes it did. That’s how I found out about it.

Mainstream sites finally caught up

R82 I just don't get it, in his interview he don't say that he's gay, only the magazines/sites is assuming this, he confirmed?

Just because he doesn't say it, doesn't mean it's not true R83

R84 Incorrect, If he really is he should say this with his own words... I hope he makes things clearer later because it's still ambiguous.

Look fraus, he's not going to fuck you.

R41 so many hotter bottom twinks in LA...

How old is the bottom?

[quote]Look fraus, he's not going to fuck you.

Don't be so sure. This man has fucked so many people over the past couple of decades that even the normal, "You didn't know he was gay until he said it!" "power" gay brigade on Twitter shut the hell up. The man was on Grindr every time he was single, he was out and about in bars openly. No, I'm not shaming him. I'm just saying he did the least to hide it in his personal life and he wasn't picking a choosing a certain type.

To his credit: every person who said they slept with him all said he was a nice guy.

Also, there have been plenty of actors around his age who simply refused to talk about their personal life rather than ever say they were straight.

It seems like he has settled with whoever this guy is and that's probably part of the reason (the other also being 38 and not a movie star) he has come out.

38 is too old to come out.

38 is too old to come out.

And I had to chuckle towards the end when he was praising the joys of authenticity in the least authentic coming out profile I have read in a while...

R72 Also the London club he mentions, XXL, which has closed now, was a men only club that used to literally turn people away if they were too feminine so...

Trolls troll and don't let actual facts get in the way.

I think he is dreamy. And hot as fuck

Does he have the potential to replace Russell Tovey as the masc gay bro cover boy?

"Smith said he felt a special sense of relief when playing the Pansexual character Gorski on Sense8: 'I thought, "Finally, I can just be myself, I don't have to put on airs for any of these people."

Interesting that he identified with the sexuality (pansexual) of his character than gay...

Since when was Russ Tovey Masculine?

Coming out to whom? Everyone and their mamas know he's gay.

Pasty delicious

[quote]The star of Sense 8, World On Fire & Treadstone

Who? What? Huh?

"Well this is awkward."

Gordillo was only pansexual in the sense that those eight characters were interconnected sensually so when one of them had sex the others felt it, sometimes ending in an all around orgy. Yes they depicted same sex sensuality but it was more like a masturbation of sorts. His character identified as a heterosexual man, not pansexual.

Gorsky ^^

Someone was apparently misinformed on "the gay thing", while his fucking, dating and lusting for men was all over social media. Oh Brian, I know people here think your publicist forced you to deny this "gay thing", but writing stupid shit always bites you in the ass later.

r74 What was his cock like?

R97 compared to some of the other gay celebrities he is considered "masculine ".

r81 It really didn't. I was checking all day.

[quote]@gaby0070 lol, thanks for the link. I'm glad the guy's a fan, but alas he's misinformed on the gay thing. Me likey girls.

Truly a closeting quote for the ages. Opportunistic whore.

The fuck? Why do these sites all say he came out as gay if he didn’t?

Is Max Riemelt gay or bi...or straight?

Is Max Ryemelt losing his hair?

Miguel next!

I too would want to know if Max is straight or gay. I've read that he has a daughter but I don't think anyone knows much about his personal life.

Max Riemalt and his "Free Fall" costar both said they were straight. Which if you like Max and you haven't seen that movie, do it, he is gay and naked.

R109 I'm saying the same thing but the others are calling me "troll" because of this, only the sites are assuming this. One thing we know for sure that he's makes clear that he's not straight, but he hasn't said he's gay yet.

Max did full frontal not two movies including free fall and sense8. He looked uncut in one and cut in the other.

I know he could’ve pulled it back but it didn’t look that way.

What’s Brian’s cock like?

It's shaped like a big plantain and slides right in !!!!!

Glad to see Brian finally come out....good for him! I've posted this way back in the day but I lived in Vancouver at the time Brian was filming Stargate Universe. Brian and his co-star David Blue used to hit the bars in Davie Village regularly.

Didn't realize Brian had so many fangirls. The man's gay.

R120 Show me where's he said that he's gay himself, I still don't find.

I guess he's Schrodinger's gay

R122 i.e Bisexual or 'no labels" (I bet more in "no labels")

You people really are hung on dudes specifically using the word “gay.” It’s almost 2020.

Me also likey girls!

A lot of celebrities who are now out lied about being gay in the past. Usually they come out in stages:

Stage 1 - I'm not gay

Stage 2 - no comment

Stage 3 - I'm gay

the headline says gay, what the fuck are you idiots even going on about?

Where does he say he's gay?

Straight, but bottoms on occasion. It happens. Get over it.

Lol. He's not straight, or a bottom.

R130 I didn't say he was straight, he's very obviously gay. My issue is that he had to let the magazine talk for him. That makes him a coward.

me likey big long dingle-a-ling

I might be wrong but I think there is it was a porn actor who slightly looks like Brian.

Liam Magnuson? r133

I would think if he weren't gay he'd be correcting people, like when people kept saying

Hit send to soon

Should have said, kept saying Daniel Newman was gay when he was bisexual

I knew him pretty well for a couple of years, 2011-13, and have communicated with him intermittently since. He’s mostly a top, but in recent years has been bottoming some, for you people that want to know. He’s exactly what he says he is, a fairly masculine, Texas gay guy who repressed it for years and had tons of anonymous one-night-stand, Grindr and club sex. But he’s always been open and out to friends and castmates since his mid 20s. It was his family, specifically his grandparents in NC who he’s very close to, that was his major personal stumbling block with being out. One time we were talking on the phone in December of 2012 when he was at his grandparents’ house and he was on their porch talking to me for privacy, even though it was freezing out.

R137 What's his dick size?

Has he listed all his diseases?

Saw someone uploaded his leaked nudies to the torrents, but they got quickly deleted before I could get to them.

[quote][R97] compared to some of the other gay celebrities he is considered "masculine ".

In EVERY thread like this. God, can you people just die?

R139, he has pre-diabetes. It runs in his family.

I think him and Max fooled around for sure. Max may be straight but he is from Germany I’m sure he has crossed the line before. The male straight Germans that I know are freaks and a few have admitted to me they have fooled around.

He must have been really scared of coming out if he didn't come out to his parents until he was 30.

Ghjj

He's pathetic.

Who's had him? Is he good in bed? Big dick?

Is he cut or uncut?

I'd be surprised if he wasn't cut, considering his age and where he was born.

I love how T H I C C and pale his body looks.

No not him R134.

I want him to load me up with his baby batter...

R152 Speaking of that he just exudes the energy of a copious cum shooter, I bet he leaves guys drenched both inside and out.

I would gargle his cum !

Good news for Brian's career!

----

Who the fuck is that?!!

I loved him in World on Fire, when he tried to pity fuck the chick and she told him to jog on, delicious

He does top his best friend in the horrible film “War Boys”. Maybe that was foreshadowing.

Sorry, I call bullshit on his too afraid to come out. I know a guy who fucked Brian when he was in Toronto in 2005 promoting his film "Hate Crime." he was out then. The only reasons he didn't come out publicly was because he was afraid it would hurt his career.

Did you miss the part where he didn't come out to his family until he was 30? R160

Oh Erna @ r152 he’d certainly need someone to hold into his ankles.

R147, he is cut and his dick is somewhat above average. He cums a lot and also leaks for-fun and is a great cocksucker. And a nice guy.

YUMYUM

R161 It's possible he was out to friends but not family. It's not uncommon for family to be the last to know, especially if we're talking about a conservative family.

He's going to be in the upcoming Matrix sequel

Good for him

Given he was in Sense8 under the direction of one of the W sisters, no real surprise.

Bumping

Will he hook up with Keanu on the set?

R170 Will he hook up with Jonathan Groff on set?

Will Jonathan, Brian, and Keanu have an orgy?

I'm sure Brian and Keanu have already seeded Jonathan numerous times.

I'm not gay. I have a girlfriend!

Must be awful to go through life with such a boring, template name like Brian Smith. Wouldn't you have picked something different for a first stage name?

He did. It's Brian J. Smith. That J. really makes it noteworthy.

Horton hears a...who?

Wonder if he really hooked up with max on the show?

R178 Of course

I can’t believe he kissed that guy.

Is the Corona forcing him back into the closet?

He's currently quarantining somewhere in Germany and talks about missing his friend Miguel Angel Silvestre.

[quote] Wonder if he really hooked up with max on the show?

Max Riemelt is gay??

I think he has had some rumors but that kiss between him and Brian makes you think. I’m sure he knew Brian was gay at the time.

Yea based on that video it was Max idea and he was very into it. He could just be fluid but both looked like they very much enjoyed that kiss!

Max has a daughter so that makes him a gay dad.

Bi or a fluid Dad!

I enjoy watching Brian on that world ward 2 drama (World on Fire) on PBS on Sunday nights. What do we know about the tall dark guy who plays his lover on the show? Is he gay?

Brian went MIA

R188 Parker Sawyers played another gay character. This time in a movie with Henry Golding. Where they are playing gay characters.

He's back home in New York.

Where was he lol

Somewhere in Germany r192.

I wonder if him and Max hooked up in real life. We all know they made out on that float, but I remember him also posting one time how much he missed max.

Why must gay men insist on having pansy dogs?

I'd never heard of this person except on Datalounge, but I was watching the Poirot (TV) episode of "Murder on the Orient Express" and saw his name in the credits. He played (appropriately, I guess) MacQueen.

He's so hot

ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

Is he still with the twink bf?

He looks better with longer hair than with a buzzcut. Hope to see more of him on season 2 of World on Fire.

Who is he fucking during quarantine?

Who?
