Michael B. Jordan's Former Assistant Says They Had "Moment" In The Closet

MBJ should say nothing.

....

....

Shocked. Shocked, I tells ya. Also... Not as interesting a tidbit as I had hoped.

So handsome.

His name is Amir Yass. He talks about it here at 58:37 with Heather McDonald.

A gay man called Yass?!

He's put on weight recently. But not bad when in shape. Good hair.

Anyone who wants to see for themselves what Michael B's sexual orientation is find some episodes of All My Children where MBJ can be seen playing the character Reggie.

Boy is clearly gay. Look for yourselves, have to say I was shocked when he emerged all grown up and paying straight.

A comment from the McDonald YT video:

[Quote] sh 2 days ago (edited) imm from. newark n hve friends who went to arts higschool with michel b jordn hes been gay since he was a kid, everyone knw even as kids im sure hell come out soon

Charlamagne: "Maybe he is [gay], but doesn't want to be outed. People should mind their business!"

Charlamagne sounded like he was shaking in his boots when he said that!

As much as I and everyone else here would love for MBJ to be gay, I dont think he is. He's just very LGBT friendly. I think he would have come out or be outed by now if he was. Can you imagine the amount of ass that gets thrown at him. Someone would've spilled his teas already.

[Quote] I think he would have come out

You're posting this nonsense on a gay website? Would MBJ happily join all the other out A-List stars?

Hi MBJ cleaner at R12!

Aw. Is this from "The Wire"?

Yes, it is, R15. MBJ was SO good (and heartbreaking) on that show.

lol I knew I was about to get dragged. Its cool.

But this assistant needs some lessons from Mantasia if she's really trying to out someone. No pics of you laid up together or doing watersports on vacation? I need receipts Ms. Yass, hunny.

Heather McDonald is a messy nasty bitch. No wonder Chelsea Handler didn't like her. She's a very messy Bitch.

This is exactly why so many from the LGBT Q community get killed.

Keep you're mouth Closed.

It's the best thing for everyone.

There were gay allegations about him back in 2016. He essentially said this about them:

[Quote]I usually don’t say s---, I just let it roll ‘cause people are going to be people," Jordan said. "Everybody they opinion. That’s what the internet’s for. They going to say whatever.

Truth is, coming out as a gay celebrity is still risky business. He might not truly be gay, but he did give an evasive "no answer" answer to the question.

OBJ and MBJ are on the same page, they just don't give an definite answer.

OBJ says it without saying it.

I believe the rumors

Me too, R23. And he always pinged to me, even back when he was on All My Children.

There were some gay posters on LSA years ago who were familiar with MBJ and his downlow escapades when he was living in Atlanta. And I believe those rumors then as I do now.

I have no idea but totally would love it if he was. He is beautiful and he is exceptionally talented. Outing someone that is not anti gay is not cool though really is it? Is that where we stand? I have hear rumours about Robert Pattinson, Bradley Cooper but who knows? We don’t really unless they come out? If they are gay and have made this decision, well it’s is their decision really. It must be tough though?

....

Omg, listen to the interview. MJB was clearly was clearly joking. The guy telling the story even thinks so.

He may not have been serious but "when are we gonna kiss?" is a little more than teasing, especially as they were alone.

Dude sounds crazy and stupid AF. MBJ should ignore him

The Breakfast Club plays the tape and then criticizes the assistant!

Link?

The term outing someone implies there is something wrong with being gay. It is 2020 folks enough shit has gone down. Just don't care if someone calls you gay or outs you.

Link is in the OP

No. Breakfast Club link?

Michael B. Jordan's pelican jaw is a deal breaker.

If the assistant was a woman, MBJ would've been cancelled by sundown! Some people are saying it was unprofessional for him to walk around in his underwear if he knew this guy was gay. The closet thing could be crossing the line. I bet he'll be keeping his clothes on from now on! There are plenty of stunt queens out there who would totally use something like this to claim sexual harassment, even though they enjoyed it. And you will occasionally get a gay man who does not want advances from their employer, even if they are scorching hot.

Garbage lies

Relationship material.

Nothing is a dumber response than r12's "if they were gay they would be out!". Yikes.

Glad r13 immediately called you out.

I need a movie where Michael B and Michael Ealy play gay lovers with tons of nudity and sex scences.

Well, this explains why Andrew Garfield wanted MBJ to play Spider-Man’s gay love interest.

"Keep your distance, hussy."

Hot.

Michael B. is hot and he's always pinged to me.

Most mostly straight guys would answer, no I'm not gay. If you give an evasive answer you're either gay or bi/pan whatever you wanna call it.

I respect that more than a denial. Remember Matt Dallas calling the Stern show?

The way Michael B. Jordan speaks is similar to this guy's.

[quote] Well, this explains why Andrew Garfield wanted MBJ to play Spider-Man’s gay love interest.

And it was her awkward response to Garfield that made me raise my eyebrows even more that he’s closeted. He was so uncomfortable when a reporter told him what Garfield said, almost like he was afraid of getting exposed.

AMC.

He pinged so much back in the day on All My Children. I knew then that boy was gay.

He certainly could have played Queen Latifah's role in a tour of "Set It Off" back in the day.

B. Jordan either over played the role in R48 or he's real Queeny in real life. Is he a trained actor? That clip is bordering on cringe.

The world needs to see, and hear, more gay dudes like r46.

I am overwhelmingly attracted to Michael B. Jordan

On AMC did he originate the role of "soft butch sous chef"?

R48 That’s all the evidence I need. The boy is not straight.

I cant believe yall are saying he pinged when he was teen actor whose voice was not even done changing lol. Do we have some real teas?

He works out, showers and eats constantly. Oh and he sleeps nude. I guess he can't host for a hookup since mom and dad live with him!

R12/R57, you sure working overtime trying to convince people he's not gay. How much is MBJ paying you to be his cleaner? Is he paying you in dollars or dick?

r58 chile I wish he was paying me in BOTH!

You know, I think Mychal Kendricks is gay, so maybe I can be convinced about this Michael.

Gay men don't want hookups to think of them taking a shit.

He’s not gay

Mychal or Michael r61?

Mychal

His nudes are really fucking awkward.

Booty, cutie.

Well if Mychal isn't gay Michael isn't either!

Why? Where Mychal goes, Michael follows?

Allegedly he got ass fucked on Peachtree Atlanta a popular gay hookup spot.

If you're referring to MBJ, R68, I heard that same rumor as well on LSA.

Does Jordan have a posse?

R69

Yeah, sorry didn’t see that the conversation changed to Mychal.

I didn’t find r48 clip queeny at all..he was teasing her that’s all. Some of you need to get out into the real world and hang out with more straight guys, you have a very fixed idea of straight guys. Having said that, I do think he may have been hitting on the assistant and I wonder why the assistant is talking?

Teasing? The character is threatening her. That is plain as day.

[Quote] I wonder why the assistant is talking?

He is obviously looking to become a Personality.

I miss those AMC days.

I remember the great chemistry MBJ and Walt Willey had. After Michael had been on the show a while I remember noticing how much the character Jack was always touching and handling Reggie. Hmmmmmmm.

[Quote] "I'm gonna get you some food, something to eat. And then you're gonna have to hit the road, alright."

I bet he says that to all the girls.

MBJ was giving sista-gurl neck swirling action in that clip R72. But okay, he doesn't pinged. Not at all. 🙄

And I've been around enough closeted bisexual/gay black men to know one when I see it, and MBJ is closeted.

R73 he’s threatening her but at the same time it seems that there was supposed to be some sexual chemistry between the characters..so he’s playing it like he’s teasing her. Maybe he miscalculated how to play the scene that’s all. It’s not like he was that scary as a villain on Black Panther either but doesn’t mean he was queeny in that too.

r67 Im just sayin, Mychal has pics out here with ass tooted up, and you dont think he's gay, but Michael has none of that and most of you think he's gay. Please splain...

He miscalculated everything. All that handsy movement. Oy.

I only know Mychal for his insider trading. Care to post more booty tooted up pics?

[quote] It’s not like he was that scary as a villain on Black Panther either

I'm probably in the minority here, but I felt he was miscast as Killmonger in Black Panther. He wasn't at all believable playing that character.

He was great in The Wire and Fruitvale Station. With the right role, he soars, but his range is limited.

R77 that sista-gurl neck swirling action is very typical of black guys from the hip hop community trying to act gangsta. Watch any rapper - ice cube, etc - threatening someone in a movie and you’ll see that. Again, not saying that this doesn’t mean he’s not gay, I just don’t think that’s a sign.

I don't remember any gangsta rapper from the 90s -- especially the homophobic Ice Cube -- swirling his neck and sucking his teeth the way MBJ did in that clip. You have to post some examples. I'm an older millennial who grew up in the 90s and around Hip Hop, and I can't think of one major rapper who came off that way (not even the deeply closeted Dr. Dre).

I can think of a '00s rapper...

Touché, R85, Tou-fucking-ché! 😂

r85 😆

Whatever became of Miss Bow Wow?

Last I saw he played Left Eye in the TLC biopic.

Gurl he's on the WE network and he got fat

Bow Wow lives with his mother too.

R84 What if this was MBJ?

What if a man nodding was MBJ?

[Quote] What if this was MBJ?

r92

Sure, whatever. Now, let's turn the attention back to me, a REAL interesting African-American man.

[quote] Gay men don't want hookups to think of them taking a shit.

Effeminate gay men who want to clown women don't. The best thing about dating another guy is to be able to not care about that kind of stupid shit women are programmed to control. Burp, fart and take a shit without a care in the world.

You seem to have missed the point, which centred around hookups.

spilling tea

Fantasies.

[QUOTE] The best thing about dating another guy is to be able to not care about that kind of stupid shit women are programmed to control. Burp, fart and take a shit without a care in the world.

Uhh, speak for yourself. The men I’m with better have some control over their flatulence.

Any tea on Ray Fisher?

Who?

Apparently he's caused quite a stir

Michael B. Jordan Is 'Struggling' After Chadwick Boseman's Death

Send for a sloppy, white PA to help MBJ in his struggle!

Who cares if MBJ is gay or not. It is his own business and nobody else's. He is not some morals campaigner telling everybody how to live their lives nor is he homophobic so if he does happen to be gay nobody should be outing him either.

Down with gay gossip!

Stories like this show how hard it still is for a black gay man to come out.

It’s still hard for most men in the nation and world to come out. Most bisexual men never ever come out. It’s still brutally hard and potentially ruinous to come out

Yeah, R109 seems to forget about all the white closet cases in the world. The fact of the matter is that no parent of a son wants their boy on his hands and knees getting plowed like an east coast suburban cul de sac in February. Parents want their sons to be strong men who reproduce with females and give them grandchildren. I don’t give a damn what race you are, where you live, how much money you make or your religious affiliation: when your parents discover you’re gay, their initial reaction will be disappointment. Some will mask it, some will respond with rage and fury; some will accept it and some never will.

Taking a dick requires more strength than giving it. Your mom probably already gets that.

I have a major hardon for MBJ but that assistant Yass is a scary queen. No way MBJ wanted a piece of him. Yuck

No way Niecy Nash would want a piece of that skinny butch... Oh wait.

R112, I dunno, but even most women think a man who is penetrated is emasculated or humiliated by such an act.

How do those most women feel about themselves? Humiliated by getting dicked down?

R116, we live in a misogynistic world. Women are socialized to have the same anti-woman biases and beliefs as men. Qualities associated with women are almost universally devalued or ridiculeD by the dominant society. Thus, yes, women often think of themselves as less than men in our world. There is no debate about that.

Shall we play into that, r117? Shall we feel sorry for movie star MBJ, who owns the house in which his parents live? He appears to be chillin'... no comment made on this recent story. He's familiar with criticism for his perceived "white women only" dating life.

He doesn’t owe anyone any details about his personal romantic life. That applies to everyone whatever their sexual orientation unless they are advocating public policy contrary to how they are living.

I wish I could console him during his time of grief!

Maybe he will be like Niecy Nash and breakdown the closet door by getting a male wife!

I'm available!

It does matter because gay people are much happier when out, and accepted. That’s the truth

I suspect there will definitely be a girlfriend by the time his next movie is due to open in theaters.

You can’t make people you love accept this part a lot you. Also, many are closeted because they themselves don’t want to be gay. That’s reality

[Quote] You can’t make people you love accept this part a lot you. Also, many are closeted because they themselves don’t want to be gay. That’s reality

Spare us.

MBJ must be like Kerry Rhodes, he likes smaller more feminine looking males. Jussie would be a cute BF for Michael if he wasnt such an asshole. He'd probably be too bossy cause he's older too. Colton would be cute too.

As long MBJ isn't out here pulling stunts with trash hoes like Jeffree Star, he's aight with me.

Jussie likes DS men. This is his most recent bf.

[Quote] As long MBJ isn't out here pulling stunts with trash hoes like Jeffree Star,

Frankie Grande?

James Charles would be great for MBJ

Jussie is too much of a mental case for MBJ. I wouldn't wish Jussie as a boyfriend on my worst enemy.

But R127 is right, Jussie is mostly into dark-skinned black men.

Call me idealistic but I think MBJ could keep Zac off crack.

Why is Jussie being brought up in every thread about black men? Fuck off!

r132 well if you would like to throw other names out there you can, Ms. Bitch!

And the assistant expects a black male star, who has marketed himself to the black community based on sex appeal, to admit his homosexuality? HA!

As opposed to white male movie stars...

MBJ has never struck me as gay, but let's be blunt about something: His career would be ruined if he came out as gay.

R135 Who are more open about sexuality and gay acceptance because they aren't trying to market themselves to a homophobic community. White male stars will admit they've experimented. Black male stars would never in a million years, because that would make all the black women that go see his movies and get horny over him automatically hate him for being a fag.

Zac and MBJ? Hmmm...I'd love to see them go at it.

Mehcad Brooks has recently talked about experimenting.

And white male movie stars (the term I used) are not out. Bromances don't count.

I believe the former assistant. There’s been rumors of MBJ for awhile now.

A male can maybe come out as bi or fluid and still be a leading man or action hero, but certainly not “gay.”

A male can maybe come out as bi or fluid and still be a leading man or action hero, but certainly not “gay.”

Link r139?

Urban men may acknowledge “messing around” with dudes or being sucked off, but almost never do they identify as “gay.” The word is so associated with effeminancy and unmanliness that only urban men who are flamboyant or white adjacent dare take on its profound stigma. Despite unreal expectations here, most of the world has similar views.

[Quote] Link [R139]?

He talked about it on one of his recent Instagram Lives. I haven't the will to scroll though to find which one.

[Quote] Despite unreal expectations here, most of the world has similar views.

Cool story, bro.

Mehcad Brooks has, R139?!?! Link please. I need some JO fodder.

He didn't speak at length. He said the experimentation was when he was 20/21.

The world

Brooks and MBJ are in two different leagues acting/career wise. Brooks has even said before that he's happy to play the buff, sexy guy roles as long as he can. MBJ is one of the best actors of his age, and will be nominated and/or win an Oscar at some point.

Brooks admitting he fucked around with guys does little to affect his career. Jordan has way more to lose.

Brooks was already pictured with Mantasia, so admitting to experimentation may actually be damage control.

Link?

Even if Jordan is gay he isn't coming out anytime soon. It would damage his career with both the African American community, the white community and the ability studios have to sell him as a star oversees. He will be paired with some upcoming actress or model, she will pop out a couple of his kids and he will go on getting blown by some hunky extra.

Mechad is fairly masculine, but he has an artsy vibe that makes him less dependent on machismo identity. MBJ, though a nice guy, has a tougher badass image. His Killmonger role only increased that image.

Mehcad and Mantasia.

A lot of actors are very private too, a lot of gossip about them may detract from their ability to get cast. Even straight ones may or may not disclose who they are really dating until they have been in the relationship for some time.

Nice

Mechad Brooks could fully come out as gay and it wouldn't matter. His breakout roles were on True Blood and Desperate Housewives, I'm pretty sure most of his fanbase won't care if he's a friend of dorothy. MBJ is different. Him coming out would be like Chris Evans or Tom Holland coming out.

Yeah, and why would anyone whose career depends upon projecting a certain image of conventional masculinity and strength, take on an identity that many perceive to conflict with that image?

Gurl I need Mantasia to put me in the loop

[Quote] Yeah, and why would anyone whose career depends upon projecting a certain image of conventional masculinity and strength, take on an identity that many perceive to conflict with that image?

Because the closet kills? I don't begrudge any heartthrob who makes hay while the sun shines in their teens and twenties, but once they get into their thirties it becomes pathetic and, yes, damaging. I'm not clamoring for MBJ to come out but I think everyone loses something profound when they uphold the closet.

MBJ would lose pretty much all of his fan base and marketability if he were to come out. Straight black people don't like gay men, as much as people try to claim otherwise. They'd turn on him overnight.

[Quote] Straight black people don't like gay men

Things are changing. Lots of black entertainment projects have side people/characters who are gay.

I think we can all agree that he'd lose some money if he came out, and that coming out would be good for him on a personal level.

But I dont think he'd lose his *whole* career at this point. He will have all the gay dollars in his pocket for sure. He could diversify his projects and branch out into other areas of entertainment. I think studios would also approach him to make movies with gay subject matter since obviously he would be a draw.

As long as MBJ doesn't end up serving us this...

[Quote] He will have all the gay dollars in his pocket for sure.

Gay men say whether they would smash or not. Beyond that they can't be relied upon as a fanbase for males.

R166 Plus as a black guy, unfortunately, he would attract less gay dollars.

[quote]Beyond that they can't be relied upon as a fanbase for males.

Unless he sold dick on Onlyfans I guess 🤣

No but really, I think MBJ could be a game changer when it comes to that

It is a good idea for MBJ to diversify and get more than vanity producer credits.

Please if you all don't think someone like Denzel wouldn't step in and tell him not to do anything like this, well then you are foolish.

MBJ seems to want it all - prestige/Oscar bait, dumb Zac Efron comedies, Marvel etc. I doubt he's excited at the prospect of making a gay struggle movie. And gay struggle movies (like slave movies) are what the white mainstream want to see.

More Mantasia.

Table talk.

A lot of black actors won't even kiss a white women on screen, so the idea that one of the biggest black actors would come out as gay is beyond reality.

r171 I dont see why he couldn't just tag on gay struggle movies to his resume. Hell Will Smith did it in the 90s way before it was a thing

Yeah, and he refused to kiss his male love interest (on Denzel's advice). I don't think "gay" has anything to do with MBJ's career ambitions.

Disgusting and messy. Some people are horrible

r177, oh my!

MBJ's response to that post @ r177 is at r20

Some people have no moral conscience. Smh

R177 I knew that guy wasn’t lying. Where there’s smoke there’s fire.

I know one thing, if he pulls a Niecy Nash and comes out by marrying a man, it better be me!

Prepare to sing this, r183.

R91 Shad Moss/Bow Wow was raised by his mother, in conjunction with Da Brat or whichever other semi-responsible non-heartless adult was hanging around So So Def at the time.

His biological father is a neglectful alcoholic.

What's all this about Michael Jordan playing basketball in a closet?

Sizzling

What the HELL is a "Charlamagne"???! And, oh yeah, HI RAMI!!!!! I had a good time with you!

Are we sure that fine man is MBJ, r188?

[quote]Outing someone that is not anti gay is not cool though really is it?

Outing in general is either cool or isn't cool. You can't selectively administer justice based on the world view of the person involved.

It’s wrong no matter

I cant believe he has lowered himself for this hussy!

🙄🙄🙄

most of h wood knows he is a gayboy.....but course he gotta find a lady and run into closet....

Bowwow too, google it...many rappers are gay, had older mentors that 'helped' em along da way...

At least MBJ is not a drama queen like Bow Wow

I knew a girlfriend would be incoming after the Breakfast Club discussed the sloppy white gay's podcast claims.

Good for him/them! Beautiful couple

Once you reach the A list there's no way to come out.

Magazines are more than ready to promote fake couples even if the staged pics are very obvious

I hope he doesn't think he's getting out of the Onlyfans thing because he's running around with this hussy.

His older brother is gay

[quote]His name is Amir Yass.

Yass, queen!

[Quote] “You know what’s so crazy? I went to school with Michael B. Jordan at a point in life. We went to Chad Science [Academy] together in Newark and to be honest with you, we teased him all the damn time because his name was Michael Jordan.

We would make fun of him like, ‘What you gonna do with your stupid headshot!?’ And now look at him!” Lore’l joked that she “missed” the appeal that would later come

body looking so good

Both with their tongues out, fishing for a top, no doubt.

His best friend Sterling "Steelo" Brim is cute, they look like brothers

The Martians from OUTER SPACE can tell that MBJ is "a GAY" and he's trying too hard to be STR8!! There are alot of Closeted Black actors in Hollywood. The one I am confused about is Nick Cannon.

Just go back and watch MBJ on All My Children when he was much younger.

The pinging will make you go deaf.

Cute video of younger MBJ when he moved to LA. Yall think he was more than just roommates with his BFF? 🧐

Well, it's over.

Is there any male black celebrity that is straight?

Denzel.
