It’s hard to imagine that Al Reynolds could possibly want to give up Star Jones, who strutted around St. Barths last month in a bikini.

Rumored gay Al Reynolds, and former Mr Star Jones, tried to do a funny list of sexy women video, which wasn’t funny. Al really lacked inspiration, which he may have gotten from a sexiest man list.

Al Reynolds is speaking out on his divorce. He even made his own YouTube channel to vent whatever is troubling his soul. Among other things Al says:

• I am not a homosexual.
• I still very much love her [Star Jones]. I do. I can’t lie to you.
• I feel like I’ve still got a little bit of healing to do.
• He and Star had a prenup.
• He and Star are not talking.

Blah blah blah.

Al Reynolds admitted today the picture above really is him, and it’s not a fake as was first suspected. His publicist, Howard Bragsman, said:

"Don’t try to make a shirtless picture something it’s not, that’s my comment."

Like what? Like a picture of Al that makes him look even more gay than before?

Al Reynolds is trying to set the record straight regarding the media’s portrayal of Al’s character. He posted this entry on his MySpace blog today:

Dear Friends: If you think you are having a tough day, may I propose you walk in my shoes for a few hours. In my mind, it feels like “Dump on Al Month.” And I’m not having fun yet. I have been called a gigolo, a freeloader, unemployed, a sham and many other things that don’t bear repeating. People on television, radio and the internet have spoken disparagingly of my life, my sexuality, my career and my integrity. The media has barraged me (at my home), my friends, my family(including my 79 year old mother), my college classmates, my students and my professional colleagues. Yet, despite this intense level of provocation, I have said nothing. My Publicist has put out a one sentence statement: “We’re taking the high road.” And we have and will continue on that path. As much as I want to defend myself, it seems like a silly and futile exercise. It’s clear that the media doesn’t want to let the truth get in the way of a good story. I hate to ruin their fun. I take great comfort in the fact that my loved ones and those people who really know me continue to love and respect me. Thank you “all” for the endless emails, phone calls and words of encouragement. I know in my heart that I entered my marriage with love and the best of intentions and leave it with great sadness that it didn’t work.

What I want people to know is that I am not the caricature portrayed by the media. I am complex, contradictory and capable of great intelligence but also remarkable stupidity. In other words, I am a human being. To me, labels are for clothes, not people. So…..Please don’t try to define me; don’t try to categorize me; and most of all, don’t label me. Instead, JUST GET TO KNOW ME. And if you see me, just call me Al.

If Al wants us to understand him, maybe he should just tell us a lot more about himself, in detail, otherwise we’ll just keep wondering if he really is "Big Gay Al." When bad things are said about someone, and imaginations are then allowed to run wild, no good can come of it.
