Michael Stipe

Ewww.

Like a walking, unwashed Petri dish.

Hard pass.

Some frau on another thread swore he was straight!

Casey Spooner had him.

That beard on Stipe is far, far from flattering. Why oh why. Did he having an urge to look like Allen Ginsberg?

Actually, Ginsberg wore the look better.

Ah yes, the Pete Wentz style optical illusion dick pic - slightly pull on it to make it look longer

He’s always been so self righteous, too. Turn off.

Courtney Love has sucked that ginger pubed cock. They were doing drugs and he let her for the fuck of it. Gross

So did Natalie Merchant.

I've never heard of anyone as universally loathed as Merchant as a musician.

We did!

I've posted this before but he was obsessed with my husband's roommate at UGA. Stalking behavior. This was in the late 90s and when I mentioned this online someone had a similar experience years earlier. He loves those boys

Stipe was out of college in the early 80s so he was obsessed with a kid half his age ?

Maybe Michael wanted Natalie Merchant to suck his cock to prevent her from singing.

Yes.

A friend of mine, who is originally from near where Stipe lived in Georgia, claims he would have a string of barely legal skater boys in and out of his house. The kid from the "End of the World" video that we all had crushes on as gaylings was very much his type.....allegedly.

When he was in college, he was quite popular with older men. So when he became the older man, he returned the favor. His husband is 20 years younger than him.

No idea if he's still there, but he was teaching art (!) at NYU 8 years ago.

Not clear how exactly he's qualified to teach art. But NYU loves its celebs.

I first heard the chicken hawk rumors going back to the early 90s. I grew up in Georgia and was a big REM fan. The End Of The World video was directed by Michael's friend James (Jim) Herbert. Herbert and Stipe go way back in Athens. I suggest you take a look at Herbert's work. He loves to paint massive canvases of young boys having sex, often group sex. Do they have the same tastes? Hmmm, I don't know, but that is the longstanding rumor.

R7 That is just old Courtney joking around. I survived the AIDS crisis, do you think I’d allow her to blow me? Surely you jest. As for the insinuation that I liked ‘em young, I can assure you the fellas were all legal age. I’m not stupid. Any more questions? I have lots of free time now that I am geriatric.

[quote]so he was obsessed with a kid half his age?

How shocking that would happen!

Oh, man. I’ve seen repellant pics before but OP’s is way up there in the ranking. YUCK.

I don’t have anything against his penis but I think publishing that picture was in very poor taste. That is NOT what serious alternative rock musicians do.

Michael Stipe had the most famous bathroom on the internet there for awhile when Guyswithiphones was a thing. There were a lot of attractive guys who took their picture in his bathroom.

Young, attractive guys

I remember reading that Cunty Love tried to make Kurt present hole for Mikey. I don’t think Kurt was all that interested. I would have hooked up with Kurt Cobain. He was cute before he got hooked on smack. Michael Stipe? Not so much.

He's a chicken chaser like Gus Van Sant

I thought Courtney said that Kurt was interested in having sex with men, not necessarily Stipe, though. Courtney said she told Kurt to go for it (have sex with a man) and then called him chicken for not going through with it.

R27 I would take what she says with a grain of salt. Kurt wasn’t bi. I think she just tried to force it on him. If he really wanted cock he could have had some the best.

Was Stipe the only gay member of REM? I remember hearing stories about Peter Buck being quite the pussy hound back in the day, so I know he's straight.

Stipe is the only homosexualist from R.E.M., that is correct.

Remember when he nearly killed Lukas Haas?

Despite his unibrow, I always thought Bill Berry was the hot one in REM. Looks like he'd be a fun fuck.

Wtf is Michael Stripe?

I can never remember if it’s Peter Buck or Bill Berry I thought was handsome. I will say, it’s one of them who always sang the harmony parts, and whichever one that was, he’s a knockout as a harmonist.

DADDY! Yum!

Who, R35?

Mike Mills had that geeky cute thing going on back in the day.

I wish it were Bill Berry flashing his bush and cock, not Stipe.

R31 I don't

Peter Buck was smokin' in the 80s. Now he's like Jimmy Buffett, married to wife #3 (ex-beauty queen) in Margaritaville/Hawaii, so gross.

Stipe has had a weird contra-renaissance since ending whatever semi-straight charade he had going on, and coming out publicly. His band's music got shittier and more sell-outy, his looks deteriorated,, and he had less interesting things to say. I would have thought the opposite would have happened once he "aligned" his public and private realities.

NOT ME

Ben Gibbard wrote a song about Peter Buck and what a pathetic drunk he was (apparently he's sober now.) Buck is gross, but the song is sweet, I guess.

OP, do a fucking search next time.

I'm not sure if I'm relieved or even more grossed out that the nudie pic is at least 11 years old, per R43.

Ah my joke was all wrong. I was confusing stipe with Moby. Silly me.

Asshole, R43, why don't you take a fucking Midol? A thread from 2011?

R32 get new glasses stat.

To each his own, R47, okay? Now go fuck yourself.

Not very clear photos. Can't tell for sure if he's circ'ed or not.

R49 He is

The entire band REM was, I'm almost positive, cut.

She's a smug cunt on so many levels.
