Who doesn’t like gossip, huh? As bad as it may sound, probably most of us enjoy hearing some new rumors, doesn’t matter if they’re true or not, but, well – everybody likes some drama, especially when it’s about someone that we like or don’t like.
However, you know what’s probably even more interesting than hearing some random gossip that probably is not true? Finding out rumors about celebrities right before the whole world from some, let’s say, reliable source.
One Reddit user recently started a thread online asking people online to share some celebrity rumors that they heard long before the news broke. And let’s just say – many netizens came onboard. So scroll through and check them out!
Someone in Vegas on reddit once mentioned they worked at Planet Hollywood and said Britney Spears would order a lot of flowers to design bouquets to pass time because she wasn’t allowed to go out much and it seemed she was very lonely and isolated.
I worked at The Biltmore Hotel in LA in the mid 80s, and was a butler for Robert Englund of “Nighmare on Elm Street”. I knew before just about everyone else that he was actually a really nice person.
A friend of mine told me this story when he used to work at a film studio and one of the guys he worked with was closely related to Mel Gibson. One time Gibson ended up hanging out with them – drinking, smoking, shooting the s**t. Gibson told them that he hated Harvey Weinstein, then said was a scumbag and had a weird f****d up mushroom penis. He also said he was a “really weird gross creep with women” and said something else to imply what we all know to be true now, but stopped short of outright calling him a serial [predator]. He also said everyone in Hollywood knew about it.
Saw Bruce Willis condition in 2015 working on a movie with him. They knew then already. He had giant cue cards for every scene and still blew it often. Very Sad.
Went to high school in Latin America from 98-02; there were rumors of Ricky Martin being gay long before he came out in 2010. For the record, I’m happy that he’s able to live his truth openly now.
My friend and I got into an argument because I tried to tell her how horrible Ellen DeGeneres is but she wouldn’t believe me. I felt so vindicated when everything came out about her being a bully!
I know someone who worked in Hollywood decades ago. He *detested* Bill Cosby. Like the Jell-o dude was like the worst person on earth or something.
A nice one: Neil Gaiman writing for Doctor Who. Was told in person by someone who is a friend of both Neil and Steven Moffat, so I knew it was true, but it wasn’t confirmed for weeks.
I posted this a month ago in response to a similar question: When I was in High School in the 70s, in English class, we were having a discussion on what Hollywood stars were hot (not sure how that conversation started). Anyway, one of the students asked our teacher Miss W. if she thought Rock Hudson was hot. She said, “Yes, but he’s gay”. Everyone was shocked and asked how she knew. “I have a lot of gay friends and they always talk about who in Hollywood is gay and they tell me he’s gay”. What’s amazing is this was pre-internet. We were in the Midwest in a small town. The only gay people we knew at the time were the Village People and perhaps Paul Lynne. (The fact that our teacher had gay friends was a shocker) At the time, my best friend was gay and in the closet (even to me). How this tidbit travelled is pretty remarkable.
