The editor of Penguin Modern Classics writes: "And so the new edition of #Morrissey is in, our only author to go from Black to Modern Classic."

I love the way some people desperately cling to the idea of Tina, despite the fact she takes up less than a page in an autobiography otherwise bursting at the seams with homoeroticism and love for gender-bending musicians and films. She's either a total beard, or if Morrissey really is a 'humasexual' it's perfectly clear what gender 95% of his attraction is aimed towards. But people like CrystalGeezer have to keep trying to desperately keep their hopes alive, somehow, I guess. It's all a bit sad.

But yes - equally it's none of our business. But then Morrissey opens the door of his closet a crack, shows us a glimpse, then dashes back inside and tries to close the door - so this game is all partly of his construction. If he'd been honest about things from the start, no one anywhere would care at all.

Lol! His name is Gabriele Grandoni and here he is. He owns a wine bar in Rome and he was Morrissey's boyfriend for a couple of years. This is not a secret, Morrissey wrote about it, and they were very open while living in Rome.

yeah. I remember reading about it on some trashy website around the time his autobiography got published. According to this person, he also used to hit on some other guys. Lmao oh Moz http://ohnotheydidnt.livejournal.com/82505989.html?thread=14548027141#t14548027141 and also: http://ohnotheydidnt.livejournal.com/82505989.html?thread=14548024581#t14548024581

btw i think the humasexual thing is bs. I believe he is gay, but he said it to appear more mysterious and also because he knows he has a big female fandom who would be destryed if they knew moz is 100% gay

blue rose society confirmed it was gelato, they had some of their operatives do an investigation.
they also were able to confirm that the man in the photos is indeed the mysterious gelato.
they were a couple and sat next to each other rather than facing each other when dining.

the tina thing is pure fiction.

Yes, there is no doubt that he is Gelato but in the same blog someone says that his facebook says he is into women. Also, how many people did Moz know in Rome to go shopping with? And to make my standpoint clear, I think he is gay but I simply want to point out that there is no PROVE. Simple as that.

For the sake of argument I'm going to put out there that I...

i suggest you to start writing your 'autobiography'. after publishing, you deserve to be put to 2nd stage of speculations and investigation.


advice adds: give some statement about your ..............sexuality.


this is not bad, you must admit.



p.s. apologies to you. i am on this thread 'cause others are 'empty' tonight.
experts in morrissey's sexuality and 'well-informed' anons are hilarious and sad at the same time.

There's many stories of him hitting on men in LA but the people here are in denial.

 

[Tynamuna]

Gay or not.... I just want to point out too the several anonymous commentors here
That adding words like "was seen", its a well know fact" i saw them" someone who knows Morrissey personally told me" does not confirm or add any legitimacy

 

[Tynamuna]

Look IT works on anything
Example: its a well known fact that the yeti was seen eating dinner with Obama. Insiders who worked with Obama had seen the yeti visiting the white house several Times. So keep living in denial about the yeti and Obamas relationship"

if you think hes not totally gay all you have to do is watch him walk or talk. only gay guys have gay porn stars on the cover of their albums for gods sake.
some so called straight gays go gay for convenience of money, or fame. how many guys here wouldnt go gay for moz.
look at the blue rose society. giving roses to other men and 'claiming' to be straight, thinking their readership are simpletons.

Again, he wrote about the relationship in the book but since it's not a heterosexual relationship it doesn't exist. He can't take walks with a friend who may also like to stay up late?

Funny how when Morrissey and Damon were out with Mando, everyone here assumed the woman with them was Morrissey's partner, when in reality it was Mando's wife.

A photo of Morrissey having sex with Damon could be released and the people here would still say "Oh well that doesn't prove anything"

Oh my god!!! Y'all are thick. That wasn't Mandos wife he was with!!! it was Tina. Why would he be hangin' with Mandos wife when Mando wasn't with him??? Check out his wife's Instagram. They were in SF when Moz was spotted in LA with a woman. Get you're facts right idiot.

in rome as well, with women complaining of his raiding of men at parties. there is the only forum where no evidence is better than reams of it.

Okey tell me an LA story with out resorting to vague "sources" that remain unkown or using phrases as well known

Being a Modern Classic is a step down from a "regular" Classic, not, as some here seem to think, an honour. Penguin are no doubt back-tracking after all the controversy created by immediately publishing Autobiography as a Classic, alongside Dickens, Honer, etc., potentially "damaging" the brand, as some critics pointed out at the time. I,m surprised it wasn't a Modern Classic to begin with.

publisher degraded him! WHY?


why he is not worth to be in company of the greatest?

Good God, they did not degrade him in the least. His book was never meant to be an Penguin Classic. It was a very clever business and publicity stunt which worked pretty well for Morrissey and Penguin. Their desicion now to make it a Modern Classic is nothing but a huge acknowledgement of the book. Game well played, I would say ....

 

[AztecCamera]

What makes anyone think just because he takes some pics with guys that he butt-f***ed them? He's always liked hetero male comradeship because he never had it as a youngster alone in his bedroom writing frightening verse to a buck-toothed girl in Luxembourg.

The 1st pic can be a volleyball tournament on Huntington beach, and the second can be at a Dodger game. I'm sure Nancy could get him good tickets.

 

[Anonymous]

It seems that the anons can't decide what was happenig in Rome. Was he in a relationship with Gabriele or did he hit on random men on parties? Or was he in a relationship with Gabriele AND hit on random men? Together with Gabriele? Well ... Also, I can understand it that someone who didn't just have a random flirt or one-night-stand with Moz doesn't talk about it. But if we actually believe that there were tons and tons of men, why don't they talk? All that we get is people saying that Moz hit on men but never a man who says "he hit on ME". A couple of years ago a friend of mine visited L.A. and was constantly told by people that Moz was around partying and have some fun with men but in the end my friend realized that Moz wasn't even in town at the time. So, naturally, I don't believe stories.

Destroyed? But why? It really doesn't matter if he's gay or not, actually I'd prefer that he's gay. I'm female.

Why? Isn't Gabriele a human being? I thought so as I saw the photos. Maybe we have different ideas about how a human being looks like.

 

[jdbabz]

Maybe... now this is a shocker grip the sides of your chair he was in an open relationship with Gelato.

Besides that why are some of you still shocked. We have autobiography and we have very suggestive lyrics what more do you want.
