Calvin Klein's Ex: He Hooked Me Up To A Lie Detector To Prove I Wasn't Cheating

Today Page Six Magazine published a lengthy interview with Calvin Klein's former boytoy, Nick Gruber, who is about to publish a tell-all account of their relationship.  An excerpt:
Gruber claims, Klein's jealousy started to sour the affair. That spring, the designer left town, and Gruber invited a male friend to sleep over at Klein's Perry Street residence for, he says, entirely innocent reasons. When Klein returned, the housekeeper tattled about his lover's overnight guest. Despite Gruber's denials, the designer assumed the worst-and that's when things got ugly, he says. "[Calvin] picked me up in his car, drove me down to the Holiday Inn in Chelsea, and we went downstairs in the basement of the hotel," he says, furrowing his brow. According to Gruber, another man was waiting there with a lie detector. He said he was an ex-detective, and presented a business card bearing the name "Dr. Love." Gruber, indignant that Klein was accusing him of cheating, says he agreed to be hooked up to the machine and interrogated for about two hours. "He made me take a lie-detector test," Gruber says in disbelief. "I passed it. And then, you know, things were much better. But I mean, what kind of partner would make you take a lie detector test? I was like, 'Did you ever cheat on me, Calvin?' I never cheated on him."
Gruber also complains that Klein took back his $250,000 Bentley after they broke up. His book is due early next year.

Headline Of The Day

Details. You'll remember him from this 2011 message to Playgirl Magazine editor Daniel Nardicio: "You only want me because of my fame, so you can go fuck yourself. Calvin [Klein] is my partner -- you don't understand because you don't have that. I am famous now, and people want me for my fame, and you should be careful 'cause of the people I know and what they could do to you."

HomoQuotable - Michael Musto

"Calvin, darling, you're embarrassing yourself. What's worse, you're embarrassing the whole community. You were never really that much of a gay hero in the first place. Remember when you suddenly had a wife because, as AIDS made it uncool to be gay, you took the wussy way out and closeted yourself so you could sell more T shirts and perfume? That was a hideous approach and I screamed my lungs out about it--but it was better than now! Now you've hooked up with that almost-21-year-old ex-porn star, Nick Gruber, and you're fawning over him as if this were real love and not a massive late-life crisis being acted out for the horrified masses. It's not going to work!" - Michael Musto, dishing Calvin Klein for the invitation to Gruber's birthday party, which describes the event at "the hottest ticket for New York's gay and fashion elite!"

Not Pictured: Brooke Shields

Some people are upset with a new Calvin Klein billboard in Soho which, according to the NY Daily News, shows "a teenage girl in a threesome - with suggestions of a foursome."
"It's borderline pornographic," said neighborhood resident Lisa Marchese, 36, a marketing specialist who was disturbed by the youthfulness of the models. "They all look so young, particularly the girl. And to portray them in a threesome - it's just taking it too far." The ad depicts a topless young woman lying on top of a barechested boy while kissing a second shirtless male. They're on a sofa, and below them a third male - pants and shirt unbuttoned - is lying on the floor. Asked about the message in the ad, a Calvin Klein spokesman said the "intention was to create a very sexy campaign that speaks to our targeted demographic."
Free Republic, of course, is flogging this story in their Homosexual Agenda file. Well, the dude on the couch does have his head in the other guy's lap.

First Streaker At Mets' Citi Field Faces A Year In Jail Thanks To Calvin Klein


On Monday a man became the first person to streak across the diamond at the Mets new Citi Field stadium. Meh, boring, and I wasn't even going to blog about it. But today comes news that the man faces a year in jail thanks to a 2005 law enacted by the city after a drug-addled Calvin Klein rushed the court at Madison Square Garden to chat with Knicks player Letrell Sprewell. Klein checked into rehab after the incident. The Mets are pressing charges and have permanently banned the fan from Citi Field. The streaker says he had no idea that the penalty was so stiff.
