Although new OL books may sustain the fans interest. R60 That doesn't explain the hiding and do you really think that Sam doesn't have enough money to rent a suite??? But the stalking thing is the real concern. r291 Sorry about the tardiness weve been battling fires here first time we could take off breathing apparatus/masks in days. All good networking. Having that kind of power over people and using it must warp the soul. He didn't say anything we haven't heard before. But it wasn't so long ago that a 'like' was proof of a relationship, was it not? We will see it all on sm because S will post it on sm. [R401] Perhaps he doesn't run his Twitter account himself, at least not all the time .' [R229] You nailed it !. 4,461 notes. Jesus, Heughan. ah, the hubris of celebrities who believe their own publicity ! And oh according to purv the woman/G is an aquarius just like one of his "exes"(ex-beards). Friends, my private blog has under 150 women. Feel sorry for the guy, this is the second HW film he's failed to make an impression in. Of course a lot of his worshippers WANT him to be their hot stud that they can sweat over and throw money at, and he has to protect his market. It's going to be interesting to watch the verbal gymnastics of the cultists as they try to turn this into their god SH's stellar break-out role, which it definitely is not. The shipping, increasingly bizarre as it has become, has been so important not only for his cover but for promoting his financial interests, most of which are firmly associated with OL and the Jamie/Claire magic. And the fans would pay up. News flash -- alcohol is a risk factor for breast cancer in that demographic. ; He might be; No, Yes, Maybe; Not of course that it matters if he is (like hell), but hes not; Ah, hes just fucked up when it comes to women, doesnt mean hes gay! As well as a world first gin tasting, Sam told me all about creating the gin, what botanicals have been used and what inspired it. Here we go again - anon feed into some blogs saying Heughan was seen out to dinner with an attractive blonde and he was whispering in her ear and she was rubbing his thigh - same old, same old, and just before the Bloodshot premiere.) Id miss knowing what was going on, but eventually Id get over it and move on. Youre stuck, sweetie. In the longer term though, it will have challenges in the wider market - too many competitors, a lot of people don't drink blends (must admit to being a biased single malt drinker myself), it's quite expensive, and when OL ends, as it will in the fullness of time, not sure that the fans will keep buying. R46, I wouldn't, but the kind of public recognition actors sell themselves to achieve sounds nightmarish to me. It's a 50/50 he'll be at Landcon. r377 But isn't he HugeOne? ", Hmm. or he's going for the hetero me Tarzan look (anal itch is another possibility I guess). This really comes down to Andrew Scott really, cause that man. [ correction should read the best ], He admitted to having financed it(partly anyway) himself. I often wonder does he ever manage to reconnect with who he used to be? He is an extremely handsome guy, even dosed up with Ibuprofen for a cold) but Monty can turn him into a Ken doll. I think that's the joy of it, being other people." [Sam . The tweet is in part 36 of the old threads R219/ Part 36 R304. Pretty extreme attempts to present themselves as Super Fans and get his attention. So our sam is thinking that maybe he has a twin! A bit of a hitch, though, they aren't passing the name on because they don't want to do his PR work for him - burned before, were they? And we choose to respect that. Of course he does still get the multiple-voting fan awards run by JJ etc, and he did get a Saturn award, but some of them were a bit of a joke. S and D both in Somerset area while S shooting the Paul Newman bit part. For those of you who were regular readers of the blog jamesandclairefraser, imagine if this was three years ago, and Jess had decided shed had it with the trolls, she still wanted to continue blogging, but she wanted it to be a more intimate experience, so she invited a small group to join her as she made her blog private. JA again keeping a very close eye on Heughan. I've actually always thought that the Great Arse of the Great Ass is a bit flat - maybe that is why his pants often seem to be half falling off (no, on second thought it is more likely to be teasing the worshippers). But with no major starring roles in the offering he decides to go it alone and produce and star in his own plays and films.Would not surprise me if he mounts a production of 'The Scottish Play' , directed by Graham Mactavish, with Heughan as Macbeth. As in, how do all these people accidentally meet SH only they just happen to be carrying an Outlander book for him to sign etc.. Something DL pointed out years ago. If they are indeed together, SH has great taste and more power to them. I dunno - I pick up more of a clinging wannabe from Alex. And his bearding activities could take a hit too - there are likely to be really diminished crowds in touristy areas such as Malibu Pier for him to conveniently do a hetero pap walk. What are you doing, JA??? Two-day cameo. Yeah its Jennifer Allen banging her head against a wall. Sam is well suited to his role in OL not because he is gay but because he is a fine actor. Just sack him, Sam. (Someone just remember the polishing cloth for TMGD). So I would expect that a TV series with trite dialogue, highly improbable story lines, weak characterisation which has to change with each new twist in the plot and mostly wooden or over emphatic acting would present few problems. Sam grew nearby Kenmure castle, where he and his brother played as children. The next authentic Scottish product to be launched by The Great Glen Company is the Sassenach Tartan Hernia Truss. It's not objectifying at all of course. He will need to get a move on with getting more movie roles, because OL seems to be deteriorating in quality, with some really poor writing, and some poor performers, particularly Skelton, and since mid Season 3 he has increasingly been an emasculated 'eye candy' side player. When he's not busy filming season 7 of the Starz show or promoting his new book Waypoints, it seems like the actor has . Imagine how the extreme conservatives in his fanbase would react to any revelation about his sexuality that they didn't like. R110 so he could be single, hope he kept his sexual preferences "straight" ;) I seriously wonder if he would fill out in the app that he's gay. Outlander's season six finale just left us with one hell of a cliffhanger. She has the best potential to age gracefully. Even the suggestion in this 'poll' (a few weeks old now) that over half of its online voters thought it didn't matter if he was gay would have had Heughan's homophobic worshippers pouting if they'd seen it. haha r133 Maybe that would have been too crass even for him. However, the enthralling couple has been quick to shut down any rumors that they could be a couple. Can't really blame him. From minute 10.04 he asks her if the glasses are for reading or just fashion and asks her how many fingers she sees. Cree bodily jumped SH at the Paris con today. Also he seems very annoyed with CB(and vice versa), her reaction to "the sexiest couple". r515 Yes, I would have thought that such a trip wouldn't require a director, but maybe they are pulling out all stops - the American market, north and south, would prove quite lucrative. I hope Sam reads here sometimes because DL has already given him tons of new ideas for his company. Thats why Sam gets away with so much fuckery. He went to a prestigious acting school in order to become an underwear model. Seemed to be about one every month or so usually very young, usually blonde, short, athletic, conveniently offshore, and a shared belief that their thong-clad bum was their best side. Great - Jeffrey Hirsch is now the boss of Starz. Are you really all that comfortable being babysat by Alex, Sammy? 381.4K Followers. A little goes a long way. How is this even credible for any of these two guys. (assuming of course that it is her in the photo, but the point is that people think it is). But wait.. she was saying just a few days ago that because Hannah James was staying at the hotel where Sam was attending the TCA event, it's 'Samnah', people!! After the 2020 presidential campaign of Donald Trump, the group officially changed its name to Sam and the Delta Variants. This type of film seems more his style, and Bonneville and Keeley Hawes are great actors and he can learn a lot. Is that ok? If he opened a bus shelter his crazy fans would go to see it and endlessly discuss the time table ! That he wanted to be involved in the process of creating it. Youve earned it. Hes got a new beard. - Hunts with aggressive flock members such as Shitner and Camuso. Because a gay Heughan is not acceptable but we all know better.. hopefully he will find the courage to lose this shit. R510 sounds about right. Just an advocate for? R516 MPC/Great Glen Company has a very small team of employees and most of those employees are working on MPC. I'm all for people doing well in their business ventures, good luck to them, but he really does seem to be veering a bit to kitsch. Sam Heughan Tumblr Just Make It A Double - Sam Heughan Tumblr Sam Heughan Outlander Jamie Outlander Funny. I have met Sam during his Batman tour. [R429]To be a hardcore fan of the books your literary critical faculties must be pretty low anyway. Wtf. r370 Yes, it is wrong - always has been and always will be. Such manipulation is almost beyond credibility ! I'd say it's time to ban the troll again. Do they really believe that they could ever have a chance with Gay Sam??? Honestly what to make of a character like Jamie(as an actor) and Claire is annoying, very annoying. He'll send out whatever innuendo, hints etc etc he thinks will get SH's notice and thanks, and that other attention seeker, Purv, is only too happy to help. Web despite being branded like a whole new game, overwatch 2 is largely just an expansion of the original game. simply because the need their king of men to be straight? How did this one get past JA? Perhaps the part will suit him , requiring more brawn than brains more physical presence than actual serious acting!! Wouldnt JA want something a little classier for such a major star? I hope for Sam that it will do well amongst the OL grannies(no I don't like them one bit, they get what's coming to them). At least his love of Scotland seems to be one of the genuine things about him (but of course he wouldn't pass up the opportunity to make some $$$ as well). Hes gay. I assume most of you would do the same, as well. Please click here to register for free. You take on board their life to live like they do. A moving tale of murder, revenge and desperately late busses .no time travel but buss time tables !! [147] Thanks for the welcome and your reply.

They can snarl at each other but dont often descend into abuse. Beards R Us on standby? An accomplished stage and screen actor best known for his leading roles in Starz TV Series . R67 How typical troll that a closeted gay actor is your hero. Christina or Georgia. Now that everyone THINKS it is, hes stuck with it! **************************************************************************************************. r433 Well, SH didn't go to anything Oscars at all. Love the article's claim that 'Many of the gay rumors surrounding Sam Heughan (Outlander) seem to be tied to his obsessive attention to his body, like most actors', what a cop-out bloody excuse that is - hadn't seen that one used before. Not much help, I know, but hopefully someone else can give a better explanation. Shitner, Purv and Camuso will hang around often being enthusiastically less than helpful , the Bond speculation will wax and wane - watch this space, the parade of cookie-cutter gfs may continue or a more steady candidate may emerge, or (please) he may keep his private life really private and lay off the PR games. R27 I don't like his current Bloodshot look .agree he looks incredibly tired. Watched the Bloodshot trailer with Heughan in his cyber suitthought it made him look kinda sexy.. His career could do with a " stand out " performance , certainly that didn't happen in The Spy Who Dumped Me No idea what his performance is going to like in S.A.S Red Notice.. Why wasn't he carrying a bottle of Sassenach whisky ? Who the hell in their right mind would call me a Queen Shipper? On thread subject Sam: he looks lovely (And gay) but appears to have a serious need for adoration as evidenced in his tweeting history. {R328] Does she have a regular boyfriend ?. No One Can Resist Him.". And we are still here, bigger + better than ever. r530 Maybe he'll do a presentation of a bottle of it to someone on the red carpet like he did to Balfe at the OL premiere - that was a bit awkward. Surely they won't drag out another beard, but you never know. Heughan considers it a compliment and not 'hate' to be called homosexual. From the time I was a kid, I have never been able to understand attacks upon the gay community. r366 Yeh, it can be pretty frustrating. Her outfit was gorgeous. Bit of a giggle posting from a tumblr-ite, and she's right. [R512] You make a good point about a liquor distribution trip but surely that would be a job for an employee/salesman not for directors. Then SH/JA/PR team decided to go for hetero player lets see, we had Yoga Girl, mystery blonde, Ochoa, Hannah, Georgia, and probably a few more Ive forgotten. "I know Ive got competition out there, so well see what happens. - you sure have, mate, and a lot of them have far more impressive CVs (so far of course), and probably far more developed networks. She is the very worst and is a coward for blocking me and not allowing feedback to her vile posts. His acting ability is very limited hence the business ventures are his way to insure his financial future. Too many in the fandom cant grasp the concept that Jamie isnt real. Wasn't so important that Cait be sold as a single, heterosexual woman. Hmm A few tumblr-ites are now having a bit of a squabble over whether Heughan is with Duncan - posts like these would just never have appeared on tumblr even a year ago. Wonder if Heughans being paid to promote Scotland on Instagram ? Shitner is age-ing, and quite a few in HW really dont like him, but its in SHs interests to keep him onside. Sam Heughan is a good actor with an excellent range of talent. If Camuso was such a close friend of Sam as Camuso and Purv keep insisting, surely there would have been a photo taken of him with Sam and then splattered all over Camuso's and Purv's SM. Watch this space, I guess. As for Camuso, he likes to get SH's attention to feed his obvious crush - he'd love to be his Bond Girl - dream on, Paul. Why do you even care about me enough to research my archives? Directed by Grayham Mactavish and staring , a mostly naked, Sam Heughan as Macbeth. This "man whore" image and "eye candy" poses, are what will lead to even more serious assault and abuse incidences. Why not just shine a fucking klieg light on yourself, or pose for a mugshot? He has NEVER mentioned his sexuality on Twitter. Another in a spate of Express articles pushing Heughan as Bond. He has not found his inner self confidence until today. R421 My guess is that hardcore OL fans are for a big part hardcore book fans and those bookfans, the grannies, they are obsessed and anything but open minded. It wasn't all about Claire, though the acting was bad in general..Sam is definitely the best one they have. Me, of all people. But there is no reason or benefit for the rest of the world gay actor Sam Heughan launches his "own whiskey", his own "tartan scarf" or any future thing he gives his name for. Whatever you say.

Interview April 2015 - another time, another Heughan _________ BROWN: Is there a lot of pressure to capitalize on your current success? A blogger is saying Camuso was invited to the OL5 premiere. At the most itsillegal, at the least itsunethical. Found this quote in an old Out Magazine article: "I think there are four kinds of gays in Hollywood, explains Howard Bragman, CEO of the PR firm Fifteen Minutes. But, a new angle.. drum roll..steady..wait for it. '"Camuso and his sidekick Purvelina control this disgusting site". SM is erupting: a female fan pinched Sams butt onstage at a con today. But hey, it all helps that manly image he really really wants. The fan who posted this sighting in Memphis knows who Alex Norouzi is, so she would have mentioned it. Then you're told straight out or it's hinted very strongly that you will most likely be unable to use that success as a stepping stone to wider fame and HW blockbuster films and lots of money unless you deny your gayness and closet. Sounded defensive and insisted that she always tells the truth, just like it is. While most of his ardent worshippers would never accept even the most remote possibility that Heughan is gay, the number of posters questioning the narrative has been growing, very slowly but still growing.

This desperation, while entertaining, just makes her look tiresome (and if Heughan/JA are feeding this, they look just as tedious). Heughan wearing his wiglet again at NYCC and a really hideous [ leather ? ] I find it interesting to venture in every now and again to see what opinions are out there and to revisit my own views if you dont you can get into your own bubble of repetition. [R268]Agree,,grossly over developed upper body contrasting with under developed spindly legs, makes him look like two completely different bodies joined in the middle. R336 I'm sure she'll confirmation from her "source" in the industry. Fourth bit: This year also saw setting up of non-OL roles that will come to fruition next year Bloodshot, SAS Red Notice and playing Paul Newman in an as yet untitled (?) R360 isn't there a chance that it's all made up by desperate fans? With a lack of LGBT+ roles and an ongoing debate over the ethics of straight actors nabbing most of them, it is depressing to see the same lazy tropes being used when there are so many more authentic queer stories to be told. From minute 10.04 he asks her if the glasses are for reading or just fashion and asks her how many fingers she sees. R288 brilliant post R289 and he is still like every single pic of MM too, why oh why. Happy New Year [ correction should read [R287].

I guess I was in love with what I perceived was their love and wanted it to be true. And association with her is useful - 3.6 million IG followers and she's been promoting his whisky and showing one of his tartan scarf products that he gave her for Christmas.

Even they know that, at this point and after 5 years of PR fuckery and lies, Sam being gay is the ONLY scenario that MAKES SENSE and explains EVERYTHING. One that made me giggle a lit bit, but also sit up, was a woman said something like, "Ooof. So one of Heughan's fan clubs seriously thought that it should be registered as a real Scottish clan?

If Heughan were really a straight guy, why would the trolls bother to "defend" him? So now he's following the private RAYA App - presumably he's applied. . I just don't think Heughan has the 'gravitas' for the role - too pretty, too heart-throb (Daniel Craig made the role far more gritty) - of course Heughan's image may toughen up quite a lot with the release of his two movies, and his fan base is sure to expand beyond the adoring female OL lot (thankfully for his longer term career - he can't be trapped as Jamie Fraser for years to come, no matter how good it may be for his wallet).
