"HIDING IN HIP HOP" IS HERE..AND WE'RE GONNA GO AHEAD AND OUT SOME FOLKS
Posted by THE fly GIRL at 11:56 AM
So I'm reading bits of Terrence Dean's new "tell-all" Hiding In Hip-Hop, which was sold as the down-low version of Super-Head's memoirs. But really, it's not. It's about as well-written. But what is fails to do is the very thing that honestly drew me and ERRBODY else to it -- name names. So we're gonna do it for you. Hell I didn't spend years in Black Hollywood for nothing.
"Dean is at Keenen Ivory Wayans' birthday party. "There were two male celebrity actors standing a few feet in front of us. They didn't notice us because the club was dark. Both men are young and very attractive and have starred in some comedic and dramatic films. One of the actors, "Junior," is a tall, muscular, brown-skinned brother who got his start in television and is known for his comedic roles in films. He never married, but has a couple of children with a girlfriend. The other dark-skinned actor, "Fritz," has been in a few movies and has starred in a popular television drama."
The two are obviously a gay couple, which surprises Dean, although he says there has been much speculation about "Junior.""
So here's the funny thing about this: I too was at a party (this one was a wrap party for a Damon Wayans directed indie flick about a stripper) in a Hollywood hotspot, when I saw "Dean" who was once again fighting with "Fritz" in the corner of the club. Tonights argument was over a very inflated brunette that kept attaching herself to the secretly committed Fritz. The whole thing became sort of a spectacle and I was kinda surprised.
FRITZ
Dean's friend Sandy is working on a film with some major stars in it. "The lead was "Lucas," who is a megastar. No matter what film project he was attached to it was bound to be a box office smash. In Hollywood, he is considered a golden boy and very bankable. However, there were already many rumors swirling about his sexuality, and even though he married, it was hard for him to shake those pesky gay rumors."
Every day, Sandy says, Lucas' friend "Kareem, a leading [married] sitcom actor," visits his trailer, where they go inside and—everyone believes—have sex. Dean also says that Lucas runs with a circle of high-level superstar down low types. He later meets Lucas again and finds him to be "smooth, charismatic, and charming," and his wife even brings goodies to the film crew."
Meet "Lucas & Kareem"
Now, this one, I'm going to say isn't true. At least I don't THINK it is. While I never spent that much time around Will, Duane was ALWAYS around he really does look at Will as a big brother/role model. Will helped him out when he was dead broke and didn't have a pot to piss in. So take from that what you will (no pun intended). And the wifey in question is Tisha, who BTW can cook her ass off.
More to come...And I'm telling you right now, I'm not responding to ANY angry e-mails from anybody about this.
