Perez Hilton was reevaluating his ***** ual orientation in the days leading up to what his family called a "severe mental health crisis," according to a new report.
"He was telling people he considered himself 'ex-gay,'" one insider told Rob Shuter for his Naughty But Nice Substack on Tuesday, August 11. "He was very serious about it. This wasn't a joke or something he said once. He was telling people that he was no longer gay."
The 49-year-old, whose real name is Mario Armando Lavandeira Jr., was rushed to the hospital on August 4 after seemingly committing acts of self-harm in a disturbing TikTok livestream. His condition "remains serious but stable," his family said in an August 8 statement posted on his website, adding that his "treatment and recovery will be a long process."
In the months leading up to the incident, the celebrity blogger had spoken about his religion more often, even revealing in a June video posted on YouTube that God had told him to relocate from Las Vegas to his hometown of Miami.
Sources told Shuter the formerly proud LGBTQ+ voice — who controversially "outed" multiple celebrities in his heyday — had become involved with conservative Christian communities.
