If you need a good laugh and love gossip, our friend Michael Musto has a new book for you. La Dolce Musto (Amazon $10.85) is a collection of his most entertaining columns in The Village Voice through the years. John Waters describes the deliciously eccentric Musto as “the best social columnist in New York.” We love the fact that he asks the TOUGH questions. For example, he asked Carrie Fisher if the urban legend about her walking in on her mother (Debbie Reynolds) in bed with Agnes Moorehead was TRUE.
And for those of you who love blind items – some examples:
What late star’s husband went home with a female impersonator dressed as his dead wife?
What animal activist hypocritically uses dead cows in the form of leather and other S&M paraphernalia when he has sex with young hustlers?
What children’s icon was caught out of costume- and character – shopping for dildoes on the west side?
Any guesses?
About The Author
I got to interview Debbie at her Las Vegas casino several years ago. After watching her mind-blowingly energetic one woman show, I asked her: “Of all the stars you’ve worked with, that are no longer living, who do you miss the most?” Without missing a beat, Debbie’s big eyes welled up with tears and she instantly responded, “Agnes Moorehead!” Undoubtedly, Debbie was/is the toughest, hardest working hoofer in Hollywood! And her slot machines were the greatest: Three “Debbies” and you were a winner!
Just ignore the creature everyone.
I love Musto. He is fearless, both in his writing and transportation (he rides a bike all over NY)
What late star’s husband went home with a female impersonator dressed as his dead wife? I cannot think of any stars that were still married when one of the them died.
What animal activist hypocritically uses dead cows in the form of leather and other S&M paraphernalia when he has sex with young hustlers? gotta be a fashion designer. Marc Jacobs? I don’t know.
What children’s icon was caught out of costume- and character – shopping for dildoes on the west side? Barney? Big Bird? Could be anyone.
I don’t know if he can be considered a kid’s Icon but I used to own a sex shop in the west village and one year the original host of “Blues Clues” came in and bought a choker with a leash a whip and two dildoes. No lie! he was cute too.

The last BI has to be Joe from Blue’s Clue. He’s the most easily recognizeable out of character and out of costume, considering is costume is just a striped sweater.
Of course if he’d followed Helen Lovejoy’s advice and “please, thought of the children”, he would have bought them on the Web and had them delivered. 🙂
Most the posts are foul and unnecessary and I do hope the posting system changes quickly. Why not email privately amongst yourselves, so the rest of us can enjoy the board.
For the animal activist I’d say it’s Alec Baldwin. In an article years ago, it was mentioned that Baldwin intertained men and women at his home in the Hamptons.
Finally checked his site.
Very cool!
I have always heard the rumors about Debbie Reynolds and Agnes Moorehead. Some years when I was rehearsing at the Debbie Reynolds Dance Studio on Lankershim in LA, I accidentally went through some doors and ended up in Debbie’s office. On the wall was a huge portrait of Agnes Moorhead as a perod Queen. A picture can mean 1,000 words.
I would never have thought of Debbie as bisexual. I suppose there are a lot of individuals who are, we just don’t realize it. I liked Agnes Moorehead, but had never heard anything regarding her sexual preference. Any possibility they were just very close friends?
My girlfriend was in a play with the man who played Grandpa on the Waltons. He was openly gay, but hid it during his TV years, as having a gay Grandpa would not set will with the “Little Parries” set. It’s actually a shame that people have to hide their sexuality to please others.
this is the most juvenile bunch of crap i have ever read.
