Dean martin gay
Here's a reprise from 9/7/04. Amazingly, the links in it are still great. Since then, I've read a lot more FBI reports that have leaked out onto the net and they all seem to be like Dean Martin's, full of info that wouldn't even satisfy the accuracy stands of TMZ or Sean Hannity. Makes you wonder how the bureau has ever caught anyone…
I was just browsing over at one of my favorite sites, The Smoking Gun. The folks there manage to delve up a expansive array of suppressed or otherwise occupied documents which they gleefully make free to all. One of the many categories, and perhaps the most marvelous, presents a stash of old FBI dossiers. Your government actually spent (and probably still spends) your tax dollars to compile "files" on prominent people…and judging from the ones that are available, these files contain a mix of readily-available info — the compassionate of thing you can find in the person's professional bio — mixed with gossip, much of it blind-sourced and often inaccurate.
In 1972, a announce on Dean Martin was requested by Alexander P. Butterfield, the Deputy Assistant to the President. We will forever be grateful to Mr. Butterfield for it was he who revealed
Did Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis ever fuck?
Well, Jerry Lewis did write a book called "Dean and Me; A Love Story".
He makes no bones about it. He worshiped Dean Martin but at the same time, the press, producers and the audiences wanted more Lewis. Lewis' mark of comedy was something brand-new , whereas Dean Martin, as talented as he was, was just a straight man and a crooner. This made Martin sour and increasingly standoffish with Lewis. Lewis didn't understand why and was increasingly hurt by Martin's distance.
He does recount the closest they ever came to having sex. They were in a hotel room and Jerry was increasingly itchy. Dean Martin knelt before him while he took down his pants and examined him. It was crabs (which Jerry had never had before). Jerry recounts saying, while Dean was examining him, 'I always knew we'd come to this' and Dean replied 'The morning that happens, the partnership is over!'

Thanks for your kind words! Glad to you dived into the emotional rollercoaster that is this fandom! haha
Sorry about taking so long to reply!
The record so upset the FBI that they kept bringing it up as some sort of evidence of moral depravity that Dean and Jerry dedicated. Edgar J. Hoover was obsessed with finding out if people were either gay or communists basically. I'm not sure how reputable this person is who outed Dean and Jerry and "classified them as gay." They are only known in the FBI files of Dean and Jerry's, as an "admitted homosexual" since the name is blacked out. I presume this person may still be alive, since their name is still redacted.
Jerry defeated a contract to operate on a project that he wanted the FBI to be portrayed in. FBI agents brought up Jerry's records (The Caddy outtake and the suspected gay accusation), to the FBI director who approved the project, and he canceled the contract and the approval of any FBI portrayal in Jerry's tv series that he wanted to produce.
Also Edgar J Hoover refused to meet with Jerry when he wrote to him asking for a meeting, because he suspected him of being queer
The Straight Man, The Monkey, and The Unspoken
“Help!”
Somebody is drowning.
“Help!”
As a sense of alarm creeps over the crowded Atlantic City beach, a body swiftly cuts through the confusion and dives into the ocean. Pulled from the surf is a skinny young man, seemingly unconscious. As a crowd forms around the body, his dark-haired savior readies himself to accomplish mouth-to-mouth resuscitation. Right as the anticipation of glimpsing a heroic feat begins to backslide into the panic of witnessing a horrific tragedy, the lifeless man’s eyes take a photo open and he springs upright.
“I’d rather have a malted, sir!”
“We’re fresh out,” retorts his Italian cohort. “Hey, don’t I know you?”
“I’m Jerry Lewis!”
“And I’m Dean Martin!”
“I comprehend that–I’m at the 500 Club with you, first exhibit is at 8 o’clock!”
The plug delivered, rescuer and rescuee then run prefer hell before the crowd has a chance to strangle them.

The phenomenon of Martin and Lewis was always less about the uniqueness of the gags and more about the recognition of the spark between them. Legendary comedian Sophie Tucker gleamed this almost immediately when, one time at the beach, she saw and recognized this drowning stunt a
