Since I'm still not back to 100%, I turn to one of the Filth2Go editors for
this week's blind item:

Could it be that a self-described straightly oriented actor is a little more
of the bent genre? He's digging his own grave if he thinks that people didn
't notice him hold hands with a guy at a recent theatrical performance in
NYC - his old stomping ground. With his résumé, it's not as if we couldn't
assume that he's playing for our team. But trying to keep it a secret
(especially when you have a past) could cause a career to go under, old
chum.

When I'm handing blind items over to others, it's definitely time to end yet
another column. I actually have a STACK of gossip that I'm not reporting to
you. Why? Because with my limited space, I really feel that the stories
coming out of New York are far more important. Although I'm choosing
stories that are interesting and somewhat entertaining in their own way, I
also realize that we must move on. I'll soon get back to telling you about
that soap actor hitting on his male co-star, or the action hero playing
"hide the cruise missile" with that up-and-coming hunk, or perhaps I'll
reveal which new sitcom star enjoys the occasional company of male day
players! But we'll get to that in due course.

I didn't see any obvious clues in here but I'll just guess Eric McCormack or
Matthew Broderick. Nathan Lane is already out (isn't he?).

Peter Krause of "Six Feet Under."

I think it's referring to Michael C. Hall, who plays gay mortician
David Fisher on "Six Feet Under" and who recently starred as the emcee
in "Cabaret" on Broadway. That explains the "old chum" reference at
the end, as in, "Life is a cabaret, old chum."

How about the "bent" reference. Anyone notable do that play
recently? Richard Gere did it in the 70's.

"Bent" in this case if just a regular adjective, meaning gay (the same
reference that the play used).

If it was Broderick or McCormack where does "digging his own grave" fit in?
That's got to be a clue. And "go under, old chum" makes me think of Australia?

If those aren't clues then it could just as easily be Richard Gere.

The only problem with the above formula is that the variable <money> is often
backed up with <advertising> which is a component of the variable <crud>.
