He never fooled me. Paul Newman had just as many on-location affairs as the rest of us, and he was just as bisexual as I was. But, where I was always getting caught with my pants down, he managed to do it in the dark.

I knew that Brando was openly a bisexual and admitted he often preferred sex with men over women but I didn't know Newman was a bisexual until just a few years ago. Even though Newman and Brando were bisexuals they were still 2 of the greatest actors ever.

I'm sure they both pitched and caught when hanging out in Hollywood's finest coke and orgy clubs.

When you say "even though....." it kinda makes it sound like you mean it's a bad thing. Don't think that's what you meant, but that's just what it sounds like Honestly it doesn't bother me at all. It's alot more common than most people realize

Because one's sexuality really is a measure of how they do their jobs

I didn't know being bisexual had any effect on your acting ability.

And who knows how good they could have been had they only been full on hetero.

For someone who's gay, you sure do come off as homophobic.

Didn't you post a screen test the other day featuring Newman and James Dean where Newman looked like he was about to jump Dean's bones?

I didn't realize that either actor was gay.

Kind of a lame statement, IMO.

on his regret at not appearing in the movie version of Cat on a Hot Tin Roof (1958)] I know more about being a homosexual than Paul Newman. It's very clear to me that Tennessee Williams modeled Alexandra Del Lago after Tallulah Bankhead. I surely know how to appear opposite a Tallulah character better than Newman.

He never fooled me. Paul Newman had just as many on-location affairs as the rest of us, and he was just as bisexual as I was. But, where I was always getting caught with my pants down, he managed to do it in the dark.


hington, May 14 (ANI): Paul Newman was a bisexual, and had many on-location affairs - these are some of the claims writer Darwin Porter says were made by Marlon Brando.

Porter, in his book Paul Newman: The Man Behind The Baby Blues, alleged he interviewed Brando about Newman before the former passed away in 2004.

“He never fooled me. Paul Newman had just as many on-location affairs as the rest of us, and he was just as bisexual as I was. But, where I was always getting caught with my pants down, he managed to do it in the dark,” Contactmusic quoted Porter, who further quoted Brando in his book, as saying.

The author told America’s the Globe that he had been following Newman’s secret sex life after first meeting the acting legend in 1959.

He alleged the late star, who had been married to actress Joanne Woodward for 50 years, had been in bed with icons like Grace Kelly, Natalie Wood and Marilyn Monroe, and even had a gay affair with James Dean.

But Newman’s family was said to have slammed the scandalous book, dubbing the allegations “disgusting”.

A source said: “Paul knew there were rumours out there about his sexuality and to have to face them when he’s not here to dispute them is Joanne’s worst nightmare.” (ANI)

So A writer whose purpose is to sell books waits for Newman to die...then comes out with a book and some quote by what appears to be a jealous-crazy Brando who outs him, allegedly, all the while the fact that neither Brando or Newman can be held accountable to. What a slanderous piece of a trash. Anything to sell books.

James Dean was queer? I don't believe that. Credible link?

I don't know if it was ever proven, but I think it's kind of been known for a while.
