Hollywood Publicist Jeff Ballard Is Dead to Me

He was responsible for twinks like Chandler Massey and Garrett Clayton… and Charlie Sheen.

He posted a photo of himself in the hospital and in a diaper last month.

You forgot to mention, OP, his role as Paula Abdul’s sidekick/publicist in Bravo’s Hey Paula!

So he was a random publicist?

Be sure to let us know when the key grip from Hocus Pocus passes away.

"He's the one responsible for MILK, and BEEF..."

I didn't know who this guy was until DL but he has always creeped me out.

The cancer had clearly spread to his brain by the time he posted the photo at R1.

Why would you ever.

He's also responsible for Ryan Seacrest.

It's always striking to me how no one at all cares about Hollywood publicists or agents except people who actually work in those fields.

Yet they always assume the public cares about them. It's like asking the public to care about the key grips.

He's with his mother Kaye now.

He was also responsible for Zac Efron.

ENTERTAINMENT LAWYER 02/11 **6**

How is it that the obituary in one of the main trade magazines and all of the statements from celebrity clients failed to mention, the now dead publicist's long issues with child molesting and child p**n. Are we just going to pretend it didn't happen? I bet the former A+ list actor with the troubled history is probably breathing a sigh of relief that a bunch of their shared secrets are headed to the grave.

He was Adam Rich’s too

by Anonymousreply 15March 2, 2023 5:09 AM

Brandon Beemer too.

Whoa, I was looking at his IG acct and he posted a photo from his 25th birthday party which would have been 39 years ago, as he was 64. In it is a photo of Ryan Seacrest, who claims to be 48. So that would mean Ryan would have been 10 years old at this party. Does he look 10? He looks at least 20 here.

Jeff Ballard Is Goals.

Omg. Is he ever goals.

He seemed to overrepresent yiung teens and men

Were they from China?

by Anonymousreply 20March 2, 2023 6:15 AM

He seems like he was a nice man, given the images he posted of being supported by the young men he represented.

One wonders if the private stress of being openly slandered as a pedophile by this Gabe Hoffman creature contributed to his cancer.

Those who conflate pedophilia with homosexuality really are the utter pits.

Has Chambo Massey commented yet?

After Merv died he wrote how happy he was to have met him in his youth. Like Merv, he was a big fan of Reagan's.
