I remember a BI being discussed on here that was about a closeted Hollywood star beating up his male lover (perhaps even hospitalizing him, I don't remember). The most popular guess with Will Smith - which I dismissed at the time, cause it seemed so at odds with his affable personality. Now that has completely changed of course, and the story seems much more believable!

No. It does not. Stop grasping at straws.

Now that I think about it it may have been a violent sexual assault rather than a beating- does anyone have a link to the original BI?

Wasn't that the rumor aimed at James Franco and later revealed to have been deliberately started by a journalist knowing it was fake?

I think James Franco was the other popular guess at the time; I missed it being revealed as fake though - do you have a link?

Wasn’t that revealed to be ZaSu Pitts?

[quote] Gawker, however, took it one step further: they accused Franco of being a gay rapist.
[quote] On August 18, 2008, the New York Post ran a gossip blind item that read: “Which hunk in a summer movie is a violent, closeted homosexual? The heartthrob snuck into his ex's apartment a few months ago and raped him so violently, the ex ended up in the hospital - and the actor paid him $500,000 to keep his mouth shut.”

Sorry, forgot to quote the third paragraph as well at r7
Back before Denton’s “change of heart," Gawker had a tendency to blindly speculate about gossip blind items—which, for all we know, could be completely made up. [bold] But they took particular interest in this one, with then-Gawker writer Richard Lawson penning a follow-up post guessing that the gay rapist might be either Will Smith, Christian Bale, or James Franco, based purely (or rather, impurely) on Internet rumors.[/bold]

Will Smith is a cuck and most likely a bottom. Slapping a much smaller Chris Rock in front of millions sealed the impression. There's no "tough guy" at the Smith house outside of Jada

Yes, I remember that. And I remember thinking the same as you, OP.
When I heard it the first time, I remember thinking that Will wasn’t too far from his Six Degrees character.
Speaking of old gossip, here’s the vintage “A-List Gossip” from 2004:
“ Smith, Will. No longer refreshingly down-to-earth and unpretentious, his stardom has now gone to his head, and he's turned into a raging, vain asshole. "A swinger, along with his wife." Bisexual. Lying about his age. Linked to Jada Pinkett.”

Except it turns out Franco isn’t gay…

According to Brother Bilaal, Will Smith beat up and hospitalized Jada when he caught her fucking Mark Anthony.
