Roberto Bolle

Oh please! *LOL*
There are plenty of Italians who consider themselves "conservative" Catholics that are out and otherwise proud.
Quite honestly until stumbling upon this thread assumed RB was direct. Every glossy spread I've seen the guy in is with a female. Ditto coverage at this or that event, certainly nothing with this guy until I found that above linked photo taken on Capri.
Being as that may perhaps Mr. Bolle feels no need to announce his private affairs but otherwise things are known to those that see/care to look. There is no way you can consider RB and Massimiliano Neri "friends" even by the standards of Italian manhood. The body language from those beach shots suggests otherwise.
Both Nureyev and Baryshnikov were considered studs of the ballet world in their day; one was gay the other straight, so don't think anyone would examine Robert Bolle any less masculine if he came out.
If marriage and other gay equality is going to advance in Italy it can only be helped by high profile gays making that move.
| by Anonymous | reply 72 | January 12, AM | Ballet dancers are washed up and contain broken joints by the time they are thirty, but 6'2" Roberto Bolle is forty as of ! Ballet dancers are also very competitive. A Moscow member of the Bolshoi Ballet threw acid on another performer to sabotage their career. How dramatic! Another hazard is having to look silly in public. Bolle has had to dress like Liberace on stage some times, love a Chippendales dancer others. Guess which look I prefer? A few years ago he sort of fell out of the closet. (Yeah, he's forty, rich, gorgeous and single.) Apparently being Gay in ballet is bad. What? I assume it would be common. But the ballet troupes are very conservative. It is feared women won't go to the theatre to notice a guy like this if he is not straight. Yeah right. Like all Homos Roberto loves falling out of his clothes and getting attention on stage. Everyone raves about his performances and his looks. Bolle (born ) is an Italian danseur. He is currently in a leading LGBTQ Ballet DancersLGBTQ Ballet The world of the Ballet dancer is a unique one. As an esthetic venture that incorporates athletic ability, esthetic expression, and general performance, it demands a significant amount of talent for the individual designer. Similar to many demanding professional sports, it tends to be a profession for the immature that takes a heavy toll in terms of second, energy, and physical and mental stamina. LGBTQ ballet dancers have been a visible and essential part of the arts community for many generations. As an artistic field which appreciates its talent, it is a profession that has accommodated LGBTQ individuals even in conservative political and religious environments. A survey of professional ballet dancers in revealed that they themselves believed that percent of the men in sway companies overall were gay, while they considered 53 percent of the men in their control companies to be gay. Indeed, many past high profile LGBTQ ballet dancers are household names. These include Erik Bruhn of Denmark, Jerome Robbins of the United States, and Vaslav Niji He has been called one of the most beautiful men in the world, and I can hardly dispute that assertion. Standing 6&#;2&#; in his tights, Roberto Bolle is an Italian ballet dancer, currently a principal dancer with the American Ballet, also holding guest artist status with The Royal Ballet and La Scala Theatre Ballet. He has also appeared in numerous fashion and style magazines and holds something of a rock celebrity status in his native Italy. Bolle was born in in Casale Monferrato, in the Piedmont region of Italy, near Torino. At age six, he used to watch ballet on television and would start dancing in front of the set. He asked his mother if he could learn ballet, but the family wasn&#;t able to swing lessons at that time. Three years later he asked again and was successful. He went to classes in Piedmont for several for two hours twice a week. Then his mother decided to let him try, at age 11, the audition for Milan&#;s La Scala - the best ballet school in Italy. Roberto was accepted. Though he later came to see it as the right |
