I have noticed that quite a few people whose blogs and journals I read talk about their Pretend Celebrity Boyfriends and Girlfriends, so I decided it was about time I told you all about
MY Pretend Celebrity Boyfriend. But, "Wait," you might say, "Keepergirl, aren't you a gay homosexual? What would a gay homosexual woman want with a pretend celebrity boyfriend? Shouldn't you have a Pretend Celebrity Girlfriend?" Well, yes, I can see why you might think that. But personally, as a gay homosexual woman, I feel that a Pretend Celebrity Boyfriend is the
very best kind of boyfriend for me to have, because #1, he's a
celebrity and #2, he's
pretend. Perfect! Also, I do have many Pretend Celebrity Girlfriends, but I am always thinking that someday, somehow, one of them will decide to be my Real-Life Celebrity Girlfriend, then learn that I wrote about her here, and get mad and decide to break up with me, and I just can't take that risk. (
But Rachael Ray, if you're reading this, call me!!)
So, back to my Pretend Celebrity Boyfriend. I am so proud of him, because he just won an Emmy award for his role in Angels in America. Say hello to Jeffrey Wright!
Isn't he handsome! And smart! And such a good actor. I think part of the reason I like him so much is because, historically, the guys in my life whom I have been attracted too are generally gay, and he played gay so well in Angels. And he was terrific as the tortured, drug-addicted artist in Basquait and I even (barely) remember him as an attorney in Presumed Innocent.
So that's my Pretend Celebrity Boyfriend. I'm sure we'll be happy together for many years to come. He's promised to let me wear his jacket and class ring and figure out a special signal to send me, like scratching his cheek or winking, in all his movies, so I'll know he's thinking of me. Just like Mark Harmon's character in Worth Winning! That's romance, people!
