Lou Diamond Phillips
Alice Echols
for the 1987 film La Bamba and the boring box office hit Young Guns
and its sequel -- or was it two sequels ?
Has anyone noticed that his marriage to Julie Cypher might have been a
purple marriage ? Should we really believe that she thought she
loved him when they married, and then she predated Anne Heche in
making a switch to women ? If that were the case Melissa Etheridge
would have milked it for all it was worth. Julie hasn't switched back
to men yet. Lou married a second time in 1994. Wife Kelly was a make
- up artist when they met, but she has dropped out of the
entertainment business since having their three children. You don't
see her in People magazine. Of course, Lou's dwindling fame makes
gossip journalists oblivious to him and her.
When Lou was doing The King and I on Broadway seven years ago (after
he married Kelly but before she became pregnant by him) he suddenly
cancelled a performance so he could fly from New York to Texas for the
funeral of his former acting coach, Adam Roarke. Young New Yorkers
who held theater tickets were upset. Adam had died suddenly of a heart
attack at the age of 58. He ran the Film Actors Lab in Las Colinas,
Texas. Divorced from his wife for many years, she buried him in her
family plot in the Texas panhandle because nobody else wanted to bury
him. Lou was quoted as saying he was emotionally devastated by the
death, that he owed his whole life to Adam. If there's gayness behind
that story, I can't vouch for it.
Oh, screw it. Maybe we should talk about Steve Martin, Coley Laffoon,
Anne Heche and Ellen DeGeneres, instead. That's what the National
Enquirer wants us to do.

*boredly* There was only "Young Guns" and "Young Guns 2."
I don't know if it was a purple marriage, but how annoying would it be
to marry somebody who turned to members of the same sex? What a blow
to the self-esteem.

Maybe being married to Lou Diamond Philips is what pushed her into the arms
of Melissa Etheridge.
Ech.... You'd think that being bi and having double the playing field would
help you *avoid* hooking up with the ickiest members of both sexes.
