Did you guys know that? More importantly: did you gays out there know that? 'Cause we had, like, no idea. No. Idea. Frankly we're a little surprised he had sex at all! See, we grew up watching reruns of Perry Mason every morning during summer break, just before Dick Van Dyke. And frankly that whole time, or in all the years since: never once did we think about Raymond Burr's sexuality. Not once. And then, you know, here we are, years later, chatting with the roomie and drinking our coffee, nice Sunday afternoon, and all of a sudden, there in PageSix:
Michael Starr will discuss his new bio, "Hiding in Plain Sight: The Secret Life of Raymond Burr," on the "Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson"
Which, like, what the heck else could that mean? That he was Mossad or something? Nope. Apparently the unfailingly generous star of Ironside and the American version of Godzilla was so determined to keep his longtime partner Robert Venidedes a secret that he invented wives -- and a son who died in childhood! -- to keep his cover going with the press. Which, now that we think about is, is some Mossad kind of shit, actually.
Woah, hang on - should we be impressed or depressed by this? Again, we have, like, no idea.
