I guess, understandably, it really bothered him in to his adult years. I just wish Jimmy had not felt the need to keep it a secret. It sure as fuck wasn't his fault. May the minister rot in hell.

James Dean's Secret Shouldn't Have Been a Secret at All
Evidently, it has come to light that the actor James Dean was molested by his minister as a child. Liz Taylor made a journalist (Sessums) promise not to reveal it until she died. I find it thoroughly sickening. I loved James Dean. I have photos of him and Marlon Brando in my bar area at home.

I wonder what secrets Michael Jackson told her?
You are full of gems today - light workload?
Dean was a victim of the times - he couldn't talk about it - the victim always carried the shame.
Pammie,
Yeah, or Monty Clift. The mind boggles. Thanks for reading and commenting. Come back any time.
Jeannie,
It's a self-imposed working vacation day. Laugh.
Kinda explains a lot.
ack! i had no idea! poor james. he was so young and beautiful and talented and troubled. and boy did his life end too quickly.
i have a picture of he and one of my queens, eartha kitt, in a dance class together!!!! back in 1953 it looks like.
That really could have affected his self-esteem. Very sad.
