“Would you like some watermelon juice? It’s low-calorie. I’m trying to lose a little weight.'”—Barbra Streisand offers an interviewer a refreshment. Now, let me get this straight—watermelon juice? Does Tropicana make that or does it come in crystals? Knowing Babs, her watermelon is probably fresh-squeezed every morning by James.
I’m seriously considering undergoing Baliage. It was all the rage back when Billy was a mere undergrad….er, high school student, strike that, junior high student. It’s a highlighting technique used on people with short hair who want it to grow in naturally—and if there’s one thing I want, it’s for my unnatural color to look as natural as possible! Now I’ve just gotta find someone in WeHo who’s old enough to Baliage with the best of them.
Discussing frosted hair and the ’80s brings up one of my favorite people—Belinda Carlisle. Last September, I told you that Belinda would be playing ice queen “Velma Von Tussle” in the Broadway production of “Hairspray”. Before that could happen, the show closed. Babe really wanted to play the part so now, a year later, I’m thrilled to announce that she’ll join the London production starting on October 26th. I’m gonna book my trip FAST!
When I met Derek Hough from “Dancing with the Stars”, I was sure he was gay…and I mean that as a compliment. Hot little body, frosted hair, overly tanned skin—it was almost like looking in a mirror, albeit one in a funhouse! Of course, Derek was dating Shannon Elizabeth, who we all know has never met a gay man she didn’t like. When the couple split, the “Enquirer” decided to turn speculation into fact. According to the rag, the schism was caused by his sexuality—or, rather, the wagging tongues. Allegedly, Shannon never believed the rumors, but they took a toll on her. I, for one, refuse to believe it. At least, I refuse to believe it was only a rumor!
Is it just me, or is Heidi Klum saying “Welcome to Project One Way”? I love her, but I think she’s turning into the Barbra Walters of Lifetime. Lots of my readers are totally into contestant Logan Neitzel—another one who looks gay, but is allegedly straight. At least that’s what “Project Runway” alum Chris March says on his blog. While recapping the pregnancy challenge, he writes, “Logan, even though he has sex with girls, has never gotten one pregnant.” Sounds a lot like another Shannon Elizabeth situation! Straight or gay, he had the good sense to have his shirt off while making an omelet on the show. You missed it? Check him out on BillyMasters.com.
Elsewhere in the world of reality television, fans of Scott Herman from “Real World: Brooklyn” can’t get enough of the abs-olutely gorgeous fitness model. We’ve seen pretty much every inch of him—except the most important inches. But we’re getting closer. The hottie has been filming video vignettes for fans, and the most recent one raised more than our eyebrows. It’s direct from his shower, and he talks about the importance of getting a close shave on his torso when prepping for a fitness photo shoot. “Now, you have to be really careful because you don’t want to cut your nipples, because that hurts….a lot! I’ve done it once or twice. It hurts like a bitch if you cut it.” Riveting. Not the brightest bulb, but he does look hot in the shower. We’ll post the vid on BillyMasters.com.
Since this is going to keep coming up, I have to make a decision—do I start calling Trevor Neubauer by his “Trevor Donovan” moniker? In truth, when he was born in 1978 he was called Trevor Donovan Neubauer. As a model, he didn’t put much thought into a stage name. Clad in undies for such brands as A&F, Jockey, and Calvin Klein, his name wasn’t so important. In 2007, he took a shot at “acting” on “Days of our Lives” and decided to become Trevor Donovan. Who cares? He’s gorgeous, bleached blond (I’m seeing a trend) and shaved within an inch of his life (the trend continues). He joins the cast of “90210” playing “Teddy Montgomery”, who he calls “a new kid at West Beverly High”. Playing a high school student sounds like quite an acting challenge for this 31-year-old! I haven’t heard such ridiculous casting since…well, since the original “90210” was on FOX! Be that as it may, the paparazzi caught him shooting a surfing scene in Marina Del Rey. He was later snapped walking along the beach with his wet suit rolled down below his waist. The drool-worthy pics can be found on BillyMasters.com.
Our “Ask Billy” question follows the natural progression of this column. Ron in Orlando asks: “Did you see ‘The Ugly Truth’? In one scene, Eric Winter is naked. Aside from his hot ass, I swear you could see his dick.”
I must confess that it takes a lot for me to go to a Katherine Heigl movie—no offense. But the promise of every angle of Eric Winter tempted me to get off my ass and check out his. Well, my dear Ron, it was well worth the hardship—and I mean that almost literally. Certainly Eric Winter is fabulous to look at from the waist up. I remember touching that very torso in Kathy Griffin’s kitchen…but that’s another story for another column. In “The Ugly Truth”, Winter’s character has just gotten out of the shower, clad only in a towel, and he’s flossing when Heigl, the first lady of film, falls out of a tree holding her pussy! I’m not making this up, you know. Eric dashes out of the house to help her, the towel goes flying, and there is his ass. But if you focus on that, you’ll miss the very brief glimpse of his penis. Well, you won’t miss it after we post it on BillyMasters.com.
Could it be that a certain rocker of yesteryear has traded in life on the stage for life in traffic school? His inability to tell green from red has landed him in hot water twice in the past couple years and has most certainly not filled him with glee. It’s not always about the destination. Sometimes it’s about the journey.
When I’m falling for Winter’s full moon in the summer, it’s time to spring ahead and end yet another column. Let me slip in a last minute item about my pal Jim Verraros. The openly gay contestant from the first season of “American Idol” married his boyfriend this past weekend. OK, so the ceremony was in Illinois where gay marriage isn’t yet legal, but why quibble? Congrats, boys. Don’t forget to check out www.BillyMasters.com for all your gossip needs. If you’ve got a question, write to Billy@BillyMasters.com and I promise to get back to you before Luke Perry gets cast as Trevor’s younger brother! So, until next time, remember, one man’s filth is another man’s bible.
