I know this won't stay up as I have no links but save this or make a mental note. Back in the late 1980's I had purchased a house under the Hollywood sign and was getting lots of work as an actor plus doing some small rewrites on feature films(mostly for dialogue which I was known for). So, back then, I was told about Newman and that he was a 'chicken diddler' which at the time I had no idea what it meant. I was then filled in and told that he liked young boys, around 12 years old. Around the same time, a male model from Europe had rented a room off me in my house and he told me almost the same thing. On top of that he claimed Newman had come onto him. All this saddened me as Paul Newman was one of my favorite actors. Since all this, I have been told by at least 3 different sources(none of them related) that Robert Redford was reknowned for his penchant for call girls. I was even told by a woman I knew who used to work with Heidi Fleiss that on the day that Fliess's black book came out, Redford's name was the only one taken down and that he was listed but only for 1 day. Redford apparently would fly into Santa Monica airport and get in his grey porsche and pick up a call girl and then go to his home that he owned or rented in the Malibu Colony. Interesting that I remember on the Howard Stern show that a woman called in and said her daughter had been a call girl and that Redford tried to silence the girl, hiring someone to break in her home and chased her around dressed as Ronald McDonald. Of course people listening to this on the radio thought that the woman was nuts but later I found out these are tactics used to make someone appear crazy, or mentally ill if they ever tell anyone. yeah, just a big laugh for everyone but the young call girl who felt her life was in jeopardy.
But please, take note of Paul Newman. I told some others what I had heard about Newman and some of the old school friends that I had then were not shocked and I guess it was known that Newman liked them young. I am obviously putting myself in danger by writing this but curious if anyone else has heard about Newman. To say the least, I was, as I said a big fan of his(he had a huge influence on me wanting to be an actor) and was devastated to hear all this.
See, I worked with Redford and admired him and was disappointed to find out first hand that he was a bit of a phony. The fact that him and Newman were such great buddies and each of them had their dirty secrets. Redford must have known about Newman but chose to be quiet about it They both had children and if this is true I find it unforgivable.
