Tab Hunter


Tab Hunter was just one of several 1950s and 60s heartthrobs who were gay.
He didn't come out until 2005 when he was age 74.

  1. Boy-next-door, all American heart throb, what's not to lust over?

  2. And to think Tony Perkins and Nureyev got a piece of that, or was it vice versa ?
    Tab’s career was almost destroyed when he got caught in a police raid at a gay party in South LA in 1951….:)

    1. The studios had people whose job it was to hush up such matters.

  3. Henry Willson through him under the bus when people started talking about Rock Hudson. Rock was the bigger star and the money maker. In the miniseries Hollywood ,Tab's long term partner threatened to sue if they used his name when they did a three way scene with Rock and Rory Calhoun. They made the name up for third party.
