I think that one was, by far, the single biggest moment of prescience on DL since I've been here.

Gay Kevin Spacey comes a close second.

Third place goes to calling NPH, Wentworth Miller, Colton Hayes - while all the stans were wailing how straight they were.

Gay Kevin Spacey? I didn't need Datalounge for that. I knew that for years.

NPH has been out for decades.

DL wasn't just right about Spacey being gay, there was tons of dirt here about him being a chickenhawk and a predator

DL was also right about Revolta assaulting masseurs

[quote]Gay Kevin Spacey? I didn't need Datalounge for that. I knew that for years.

DL was discussing gay Spacey a long time before pictures of him kissing that dude emerged while the majority of people were still arguing that he was straight.

At the time, people were running with the usual "gay people think everyone is gay" schtick.

[quote]NPH has been out for decades.

Yes, he came out in Nov 2006, so decades. However, DL was discussing his being a homosexualist years before that.

You both don't seem to "Datalounge gossip...that turned out to be true."

DL is the first place I heard of Epstein and I didn't believe it could be as bad as DL was making it out to be.

I was at Spacey's Iceman Cometh with NPH and his male date (I don't know if it was David at that point). It was "common knowledge" then that NPH was out. I even sent in a postcard back home.

Didn't Ricky Gervais kind of out some very famous actors who were Scientologists at the Golden Globe some years ago? I forget it he actually said their names though.

Poor Robert Sean Leonard was probably mauled by Spacey nightly in that production. He sure wasn't there for his acting talent.

The Harvey Weinstein stuff was widely discussed on DL at least 15 years ago. I don't know if DL is the first place I ever read about it -- god knows, the stories about him have been circulating everywhere for years -- but I do remember that every DLer knew about it at least a decade before it blew up.

Same goes for the Bryan Singer dirt.

Not that I disbelieved any of that.

I do agree that the Bruce Jenner transitioning story just sounded way too over-the-top to me when first discussed here.

I knew about Spacey from hearing about all the actors who've been preyed on by him. I even have a relative who was accosted by him. I've known about that pig since the late 90s at least.

I suspected he was closeted but I didn't think he was such a creep and a predator.

Knew about Spacey because he hit on my best friend (a male). But I was thrown by Jenner.

I don’t think I’ve ever seen anyone claim Colton Haynes was straight. The controversy here was over how much shade he deserved for hiding.

Gossip here that Prince was terminally ill, had full blown **** ,refuses to take his medicine anymore and would die within the next few months. And then only a few weeks later he actually died.

DL was where I learned that Bruce Jenner was a cross-dresser, and this is well before the Kardashians were famous. His ultimate transition didn't surprise me.

The stories about Bryan Singer. I figured yeah he's probably gay, but that he was drugging and raping teenagers was discussed here and it was true.

That Karl Lagerfeld was about to die, was announced some weeks here before he actually died. Didn't hear rumours anywhere else. only on the DL.

The evil National Enquirer had all of the same info as DL about Kevin Spacey and Bruce Jenner at the same time.

DL was not ahead of either story with those two.

The Whitney rumors go back to 1987, predating Datalounge by 8 years.

NPH coming out and Bruce claiming he's a woman are true things.

Bryan Singer stuff is still gossip, and, thus, not fitting the requirements of OP's question.

R27, the Enquirer outed Spacey around the time American Beauty came out. DL outed him years before then.

Why do people who have no clue what they are talking about pretend as if they do.

R35, yes, it was. DL goes back to 95 or 96. There was dirt about Spacey from the beginning

by Anonymousreply 38January 3, 2020 10:38 PM

From the David E. article in the link:

"To begin at the beginning of his sexual notoriety, I trust many will recall an incident during the shoot of “The Usual Suspects” in 1995: Spacey was called to the set and when he didn’t come right away, director Bryan Singer went to his trailer and found him doing the horizontal mambo with Singer’s boytoy du jour. The news of this went all over the net in nanoseconds. On Datalounge, the most delicious gay gossip site in cyberspace, it was under discussion for months afterwards. But what’s said in Datalounge stays in Datalounge, and Spacey’s performance in “The Usual Suspects” won him his first Oscar.

A short time later, Singer, who loves to walk around LA, ran into me up on Sunset Boulevard across the street from the DGA Theater. I had never met him before, but he clearly knew who I was because he came up to me and said, “I want you to know Kevin and I are friends and the kid is no longer in my life.” Wow, the director reads Datalounge! "

I believe it was here that the gossip about a very young Jamie Bell living with the Billie Elliot director Stephen Daldry was bizarre and very unusual. Eventually Jamie Bell moved out and back in with his parents. This was before the mainstream gossip sites were discussing this.

That "Linda" troll used to tell real whoppers about being in the same UCLA transitional program that Jenner was in, which I think caused a lot of people to disregard the actual rumors we were getting.

Celebrity Caterer had GREAT stuff here, including about Mariska Hargitay, but was chased off by assholes. He would ask people to guess who he was talking about, and would pepper the thread with hints. When we got trolldar some absolute idiot said he "discovered" CC was "replying to his own posts with sockpuppets" when in reality CC was just giving people hints as to who he was talking about. CC got fed up and left.

CC posted a blind about Rachael Ray being in the closet years before that rumor made it into gossip rags.
