This video describes the challenges and societal pressures faced by these individuals, shedding light on a complex aspect of their personal lives that remained hidden until the end.

We saw Sherman Hemsley in Las Vegas- being driven in a car right next to us!!! a station wagon!!! We lost our minds- our faces were hanging out of the windows and we were screaming, "WE LOVE YOU!!! WE LOVE YOU!!!" He was laughing- the man sitting next to him was laughing- the driver was laughing- we were just star struck

Sherman was one of my all time favorites. I was young and up into my teen years when The Jeffersons was on. George (Sherman) could make me laugh out loud!! Love him and I'll miss him always! 🎉❤🎉

I was a waiter at a high end restaurant in Peoria, Illinois. One night around 9:00PM Richard Pryor came in with a very lovely young lady. He said I know it’s kind of late but could we have some coffee and pie? Of course we were delighted to serve them and he was a true gentleman. It was a $12.00 check and he left a fifty dollar bill. We served a lot of celebrities but he was my favorite!

She does not "sell" that to her Black fans too hard, her fan base would shrink further and she's pretty much "informed" us of this in not speaking too much about her "wife". She, I'd say, about, 2 or 3 months ago was on Sherri Shepherd (daytime talk show) and got a standing ovation because she is the Queen (rapper, actor, philanthropist), lol, but DID NOT answer any questions about her love life - which I'm sure she made clear with show producers. Luther Van Dross was a gay man, a soul and r&b singer whom was singing love songs to women, not that it wasn't known that he was gay but had he come out as a gay man those album/music sales would have dried up. Patti LaBelle, a best friend, told him his career would be die on the vine had he come out as a gay man singing love songs to women, his songs would have been disingenuous had he been openly gay. As we all know Freddie Mercury was a gay man but was Fari, Muslim. Though the joke was on us "Queen" was masterful in being macho and hyper-masculine in their songs and on stage. Though eventually he came out he did so at the point of death when AIDS had consumed him. Otherwise, he'd probably may not have been as public due to his "religion". We are not perfect beings, famous or everyday people. Some things should remain private and off the radar. I think it depends on the level of fame one wants to receive - the larger one is the more private, I think, a person should be. Life doesn't always work that way though. That's my 2 pennies, lol.

Others who wouldn’t reveal or at least downplayed their being gay were: Liberace, Paul Lynde, Gilbert Harding, Robert Reed, Marjorie Main, Spring Byington (she and Main were said to be lovers), Richard Deacon, Raymond Burr and Nancy Kulp. Charles Nelson Reilly was rumored to be gay for years. He did reveal that he was toward the end of his life in his one-man show “Save It For The Stage: The Life of Reilly.” Roddy McDowell was also rumored to be gay, but no one has been able to give evidence of it. He always showed up at different gatherings and events alone, he was never reported to be connected to anyone, and he never talked about his private life, so it’ll probably never be known what he really was.

[@christopherhebert8939]

When the Fascist American Left comes into control of an entity, be it an industry such as the movies or a University or a corporation, the nature of the beast called Authoritarian Socialism is such that it must eliminate from it's presence and hearing any opposition. A different view of life is an opposition to them. A religious view of life, ie, religious morals, constitute unacceptable opposition to them. There has always been some affinity for or attraction to the theater/cinema world for homosexuals. Now, it's a political mandate that LGBTQ ideology be elevated to the level of enforced policy. It's Marxist doctrine to use sex/sexuality to destroy middle class, Christian society. It's all politics. And as President Franklin D. Roosevelt once said, 'Nothing in American politics happens by accident'.

Of course there are heterosexuals, just think of Harvey Weinstein 🤣🤣🤣But I think at least since modern times, arts in general were a haven for outsiders where they freely could express themselves without considering social constraints. That may explain that gays are represented disproportionately in that field. A certain sexual disposition may not nessessarily come along with superior talents, but still culture-, film- and showbiz provide attractive environments where they are more easily accepted for what they are. Just my five cents, of course!
