Was burt reynolds gay

How long do you estimate before the truth about the late Burt Reynolds's sexuality is made known to the wider public?

R30 He was nothing at all like he appeared in movies. Very quiet, almost shy demeanor. He and Charles Nelson Reilly ran the apprentice classes/ program and everyone just knew Burt and CRN and even Dom Delouise were gay. Nobody really cared within that circle.

I personally witnessed the aforementioned trio going out sdelayed at night with us ( male apprentices). There was a lot of inneundo and drugs.

Females who worked for Burt considered him totally safe and we're never invited to the belated night after parties.

I actually had my first rim career from a guy who was one of Burt's lovers at the pool at Burt's dwelling on Jupiter Island. I was very young. It was a wild scene. But it was just the way it was at the time.

I am trying to think of more details and dish...uh Dick Cavett was a pothead...I never saw Loni Anderson - ever. Martin Sheen pinged to me. Adrienne Barbeau was a sweetheart....

Burt Reynolds regretted womanising past and revealed all about Aids rumours, Charlie Sheen and James Bond

The late Hollywood legend and infamous ladies' man spoke to the Mirror in December 2015 and admitted he was 'an a**hole' towards women

The late Hollywood legend Burt Reynolds, who died on September 6 2018 in Florida, spoke to the Mirror back in December 2015.


This is what had to utter as he looked back on his life then:


With his wry grin, plump moustache­ and thicker chest rug, Burt Reynolds was one of the biggest sex symbols of the 1970s. And, boy, did he take­­ advantage­ of it.


By his control admission the Smokey and the Bandit star, who was one of the decade’s highest paid actors, hopped from bed to bed, dating beauties from Farrah Fawcett to Goldie Hawn.

But the medallion man image quickly went out of fashion and just as the serial womaniser was rumoured to be have Aids, his career nosedived.

Looking assist as he released his autobiography­, But Enough About Me, an older, wiser Burt saw why so many people leapt to the wrong conclusion.


“I was surprised a lot of women didn’t say, ‘Have you been tested, because you should be?’” h

And just like that, we somehow made it to Friday yet again. Great for us all! Seriously, at this point survival is about all we can hope for these days–what with the earth aflame, all the hatred and divisiveness in our society and culture, a pandemic, and all this economic uncertainty. I’ve noticed on social media a tendency for people to be hesitant about wonderful things that are happening for them, whether personal or professional or both, and to them I say shout it out from the rooftops! We all need to discover some joy in this life and world these days, and for heaven’s sakes, don’t feel at fault because good things are happening for you during tough times!

And anyone who looks at your great news and finds it inappropriate or whatever–really should take a long, firm look at themselves and their values, because if you have reached a point in your existence where you cannot be happy for other people’s good news….maybe you shouldn’t be on social media at all and want to withdraw to mend yourself for a while.

I’ll take any joy or happiness I can come across anywhere in this year 2020.

We all should, frankly.

Wednesday I saw a spot on soc

With the passing of Burt Reynolds yesterday, Hollywood lost one of the great box offices stars of the silver screen.

Reynolds irresistible charm came from a combination of undeniable sex appeal coupled with an open, self-effacing meaning of humor. As Variety puts it, his “post-modern macho posture.”

From 1978 through 1982, Reynolds was the top-grossing box office celestial body in the United States.

Films enjoy Deliverance, Smokey and the Bandit, The Longest Yard (Golden Globe nomination), Starting Over (Golden Globe nomination), Boogie Nights (Oscar nomination) were all critically acclaimed.

But there were mistakes along the way, too.

Reynolds famously turned down the role of “Han Solo” in Star Wars, as well as the Richard Gere role in Pretty Woman.

During the early 90s, when great film role suggestions weren’t coming in, he returned to TV (where he began in the 1960s) with the sitcom Evening Shade, for which he won an Emmy Award.

What many don’t know, however, was his personal pet project – a theater in Jupiter, Florida, appropriately called, The Burt Reynolds Dinner Theater.

For over a decade, Reynolds created jobs for scores a
