Did Shaun Cassidy trick with Sal Mineo?

He like many others would know were Sal lived because the crime scene was reported in the news. The garage of the apartment building were Sal lived!!!!

Are you sure you're not thinking of Bobby Sherman?

"Trick" as a verb. Wow. Retro.

Sal had str8 and gay friends. No big deal.

The whole article is written in retro slang.

Should be narrated by Humphrey Bogart/Sam Spade. Not sure if the point, since the case was solved decades ago?

[quote]Did Shaun Cassidy trick with Sal Mineo?

Shaun's father did.

Why shouldn't Shaun?

My late husband tricked with Sal back in the day. He got around.

Ugh, that article read like it was written by Maynard G Krebs…uncool, big daddy.

Shaun was hot

R7 - Wasn't Jack about three decades too old for Sal?

R11 Sal liked daddies

Sal and Jack both died from unnatural causes in 1976

Sean is packing and a nice guy

Jack Cassidy was 12 years older than Sal

Jack was a bald nerd

Apparently, some of Sal's known associates reported that 16 to 25 was his preferred age range and 25 was pushing it, r12. I don't know what motive they could have had for lying. Mineo seemed well liked enough.

What ways to go. I assume Cassidy was passed out after heavy drinking and didn't suffer too much.

Jack Cassidy's condo (where he burned) was included on the "Celebrity Death and Scandal Tour" I took in Los Angeles. Fun!

R18,fun? I can see going, but fun?

Sal was very sexy when he was young. If it was possible at the time, he would have been perfect to play Giovanni in a film adaptation of Giovanni's Room.

Sal’s career really was a mess by the end of his life. One of his last roles was on Columbo, and he barely even had any screen time in that episode. He went from an Oscar nominee to a bit part character actor.

I wonder if he lived longer, could he have pulled a Brando or Travolta and have a big director revive his career.

I absolutely think he would have, R22. Tarantino or Scorsese or someone would have done something with him. And he would have shined, and had a career again, because he was just that handsome, charismatic, and talented. Sal would have come back.

As for Shaun being friends with him, is that really so strange? He grew up in a show business family, and it was common in Hollywood for straights and gays to hang out with each other. Just look at those Roddy McDowell home movies.

Most of the men in Roddy’smovies were gay or bi.

Sean was great friends with Dominique Dunne

Shaun (not "Sean", moronic R25) Cassidy was late 1970s super cheese...just like Andy Gibb, Donny Osmond, Rex Smith, Leif Garrett, Scott Baio, etc. Worse era ever of "hot" white guys! 🤮

Sal hooked up with Bobby Sherman, not Shaun Cassidy.

R22 I doubt he would have come back in that way. Maybe more like Jackie Earle Haley- I see him as a character actor,

"I wonder if he lived longer, could he have pulled a Brando or Travolta and have a big director revive his career."

John Waters would have had a field day with Sal (see Tab Hunter)

Was Jack Cassidy alive when the condo caught on fire? As in, did his lungs show smoke damage, wh. would indicate he was breathing in the smoke.

Is Shaun Hollywood's most prolific serial killer?

Everybody wanted Shaun, why would Sal be any different?

He was so tiny and fey that it would be difficult pairing him with women. So what's left are bad boy roles, outsiders.

Similar for Anthony Perkins (and probably James Dean, had he lived).

Did Shaun nudity while tricking with Sal?

Jack Cassidy was very much alive when the fire started. He was trapped by the flames and likely burned to death.

Find a Death covered Jack Cassidy's death. He died of excessive thermal burns - meaning he burned to death.

Caution on reading the link. It goes into details about what was left of Jack.

I agree with those who say that Sal would have eventually quit the business but would've come back.

Jack Cassidy seems like he was out cold (drunk? heart attack?) when the fire was ravaging his place, perhaps waking-up only when engulfed in fire. There were plenty of windows for him to escape out of, if he'd been alert and awake.

R38, the fire started on his couch because he had a cigar or cigarettes and passed out with it in hand. He was in golfed in flames as he ran to the door excruciating,horrifying death

Engulfed ! Damm autocorrect

What a stupid thread

Sal had sex with Dennis the Menace Jay North.

#39, were you there? How does someone snooze soundly til they are 'in golfed' with flames? He didn't feel the heat? Smell the smoke? It takes a while for a room to become an inferno.

I bet it was murder. He was a hated person. Someone slipped him a micky or something, and he couldn't function enough to get to a window or door. I believe he was barbecued after death.

Cassidy actually thought he was a Hardy boy.

More like a Nancy Boy.

[quote] He was so tiny and fey that it would be difficult pairing him with women. So what's left are bad boy roles, outsiders. Similar for Anthony Perkins (and probably James Dean, had he lived).

Anthony Perkins was 6'2".

R21 A bit part is 5 lines or less. Like a waiter,or a bellhop who says "May I open a window for you, ma'am?" "Anything else?" "Thank you, sir." Sal wasn't playing bit parts.

Sal was a cluster fuck by the time of his murder. His looks were dead by 1970 and the rest of him was a mess by the time of his murder.

[quote]Sal and Jack both died from unnatural causes in 1976

And you better stick with that story

Agcwebpages.com posted a blind item a couple of days ago that alleged that Cassidy was murdered in retaliation for the sexual assault of someone. He was a real bottom feeder. And so is his ex wife Shirley.

[quote]the fire started on his couch because he had a cigar or cigarettes and passed out with it in hand. He was in golfed in flames as he ran to the door excruciating,horrifying death

Like I could believe that

R51, Teresa, gurl, you had too many Watchtower magazines hoarded in your living room and they caught fire.

Fuck you all

30. ENTERTAINMENT LAWYER 10/03 **6** This actress (Tatum O'Neal) was probably A- list at her peak. She said when she was very young she used to be offered up as a prize when her A- list actor father (Ryan O’Neal) really needed to land a role. There is talk that one man (Jack Cassidy) went too far which is how he ended up being burned alive and not because he had been smoking a cigarette. That man was the father of two celebrities (Shaun Cassidy) (David Cassidy) and the ex-husband of another (Shirley Jones). Tatum O'Neal/Ryan O’Neal/Jack Cassidy/Shaun Cassidy/David Cassidy/Shirley Jones (Jack Cassidy, Actor, Dies at 49 In Fire at Los Angeles Apartment)

You know if Enty claims it, it’s true!! (Not really).

If she was offered up as a prize then I'm a little confused about how Jack Cassidy "went too far". What were the others doing, just gazing at her?

[quote]He was in golfed in flames.

Oh, dear.

Ryan O’Neal was at the peak of his career when Tatum was a little girl so why would he need to pimp her out to a bunch of industry pervs to get parts? It doesn’t make sense.

Also neither of them ended up big stars for more than a few years, so whatever they were doing it didn't work.

[quote]Ryan O’Neal was at the peak of his career when Tatum was a little girl so why would he need to pimp her out to a bunch of industry pervs to get parts? It doesn’t make sense.

He made a series of flops after Paper Moon.

Obviously we don't know if that blind item is true but oddly enough, Leigh Taylor Young lived in Jack Cassidy's apartment after he died.

Shawn is straight

Sal would have been good casting for the undercover cop in "Cruising".

r61

He was dead by that time, dead, cold dead and buried in the Earth, so why bring up that?

Or better yet, why bring that up?

R61 it’s true it does seem Al Pacino took off with the career Sal mineo could have had

Sal liked them young, sometimes fourteen year olds . Did he prey on Shaun and Shaun killed him in retaliation?

So do you buy the black perp version?

[Quote]On December 12, 1976, after a hard night of partying – a Christmas party and bar hopping (with party animal Nanette Fabray no less) – he returned home.

How fabulous that Jack Cassidy's last hours were spent getting shitfaced with Nanette Fabray.

They were friends and former co-stars. Here she talks about his death by vicuna rug.

r1 meant to say Hardy a Secret.

[quote] Did Shaun nudity while tricking with Sal?

ESL?

[quote] Shawn is straight

Who?

If you mean ShaUn, he’s dead so he’s not an “Is” anything now.

Well, hello.

Hi!

Oh, you meant that as an…ya know what, never mind.

I just wonder if Shaun took Parker Stevenson's Big One.

[quote]If you mean ShaUn, he’s dead so he’s not an “Is” anything now.

R71, Shaun Cassidy is not dead. David Cassidy, his brother, is.

David was talented and had that charismatic IT factor .

David Cassidy was one of my first crushes. I was bummed when he died, though wasn't surprised as he became a bit of a train wreck.

David was in a lot of emotional pain

From what r78?

[quote] Shaun Cassidy is not dead.

Well he’s dead to me, for reasons he’s well aware of.

R79, from his dad’s complete rejection of him.

Jack Cassidy sounds like he was a first class prick. And Shirley wasn’t much better.

Who was David’s mother BTW?

[quote] Jack Cassidy sounds like he was a first class prick

Rumor had it he and David both possessed first class pricks

The Cassidy boys were well endowed. Shirley was a very kind second mom to David . I personally believe that Jack was jealous of David. David was exquisite as a child and adult. I hope they are reunited and I do believe this is they’re close again in the next world.

[quote] David was exquisite as a child and adult. I hope they are reunited and I do believe this is they’re close again in the next world.

[BOLD]MARY! [/BOLD]

David's mom was Evelyn Ward. She died of dementia. I've seen conflicting reports on whether David was developing dementia too.

Evelyn was a knock out. David got her hair .

Worst (not "Worse", moronic R26

R59 if after Ryan dies Tatum writes a real let it all hang out memoir, it will melt the paint off the walls. Assuming she still has a few brain cells left, it shouldn't be terribly long.

Why was his music such shit?

David drank himself to death. Liver failure.

OP didn't everyone?

Did Sal trick with Paul during the making of Exodus?

R90 it wasn't really about the music. He was a manufactured pop idol aimed at squealing teens female division

Shaun Cassidy is actually touring again (as a singer, duh, not as an actor). Who the F would go to a Shaun Cassidy concert? Would gay men?

That depends. Is he presenting hole?
