From La Dolce Musto:

What celeb's ex-husband just had a threatening e-mail sent to MICHELANGELO SIGNORILE? Free answer: DAVID GEST. His office demanded for no specified reason that Signorile remove from his site a three-year-old article he did chronicling the media's speculation about the guy's sexuality (and in fact that he remove any mention of him)? Honey, if Gest is trying to flush all gay online references, it might be easier for him to just shut down Macintosh and Microsoft. Signorile responds, "This is ridiculous. I'm not taking down anything."

It would be fun, if only he wasn't s'darned creepy. I hate to contemplate him either canoodling with Garland's daughter, or with a Garland fan at the Stonewall Inn. You can pull it up, tighten it, buff it, but post surgery, Mr. G still looks like the drawing on the Oil of Olay jar.

Oh my god. If evocative, accurate writing were one of those Test Your Strength things at the carnival, Auggie, you just knocked the bell off the board.

Wait DAVID GEST is Gay? Who says? Man, why people gotta be dissing my man David? Why can't you accept a totally heterosexual man who's obsessed with Wizard of Oz & Disney Memorabilia, who has had more plastic surgery than Joan Rivers and worships Judy Garland?

He was married to Liza Minnelli, for God sake! Would a gay man Marry Liza Minnelli, I ask you????

This blind item made me the theatre queen in me (which is 99 44/100% of me) take notice:

What composer read a diva in front of people for ****ing with the character, but he still gets her parts anyway?

My bet is Sondheim and Lupone.

"Would a gay man Marry Liza Minnelli, I ask you????"

Of course he would, especially if he wanted to do her bodyguard.

That was my first thought too, Robbie.
