Male Celebrities Who Never Came Out but Everyone Knew

Hunky Stephen Boyd's Wiki page makes no mention of his gayness yet talks about his three-week marriage and his late in life marriage to his secretary. He died at 45 from a heart attack. After he died, Raquel Welch outed him when she suggested he come in for a drink and he told her "You’ll have to think about it for a moment but I hope you get my drift: An actress is a little bit more than a woman, but an actor is a little bit less than a man." I thought, ‘Oh! He’s not interested in me; I am the wrong sex!’

Anyone else?

Stephen Boyd died in 1977 of a "heart attack" at 45. Yeah right. He was an AIDS death but that is before it was known.

Another cover-up

These old closet cases don't matter.

But let's talk about Raquel Welch. Why didn't she have an even bigger career? Why does she still look so beautiful? Is she a good person, or a phony old slut?

Only two persons claim Stephen Boyd was gay; Raquel Welch and Miss Bitchy Bottom, John Gielgud.

Ms. Welch's main reason for calling Mr. Boyd gay was frustrated sexual attraction and love unrequited. She wanted the man badly, but he didn't give her the time of day in that way.

Thus far as Raquel Welch is concerned any man who didn't want to get with her back in the day (when she was at peak of her beauty), must be gay.

Stephen Boyd was very close friends with Hedda Harper. If there was any dirt to be sniffed out in Hollywood, HH was like a beagle; quick to catch the sent.

R3 Hedda definitely played favorites over the years. Yes, she could be a bloodhound. But she could also be bought off, and she was. She covered for a lot of her friends, and had a pretty transparent need for attention and approval from people who had the career she never got to have.

Boyd was a classy guy. Great way to let Rocky know her pussy wasn't a magnet for every man in the universe.

I'm gay, but even I would want to see Raquel Welch naked. I wouldn't fuck her, though. A goddess like that has surely had the best of the best over the years, and she's bold enough to tell a man when he's lacking. Also, the old slut kisses and tells.

When Hedda wanted to, she would out men she thought were leading women on. When Elizabeth Taylor married Michael Wilding Hopper called him and his "best friend" Steward Granger into her office and demanded he confess his gayness. She even published her speculation in her book "The Whole Truth and Nothing But the Truth. Even though she was half right (he was bi), Wilding sued her, eventually settling for $100,000. Also, wasn't her son William Hopper of Perry Mason fame gay?

Sorry, r7, I am so gay there is no woman, no matter how beautiful or sexy, that I have any desire to see naked.

Hill Harper. I only say this because I think that he is and I know that it will piss off and female lurkers from LSA who believe he’s heterosexual.

Slight flaw in your logic, If nobody knew that AIDS (GRID) existed how could they cover it up?

The much later 'cover-ups' that did occur generally give Liver/Pancreatic Cancer as the cause of death.
