Where do they reside? Is either one married? Does either one have children?

for some reason i thought that both had married and moved to l.a. jerome is said to being theatre when he's not touring.

i'm sure someone else knows more.

i thought jerome was gay.
i love him so. especially in utcm

I've read on here that Morris lives in Atlanta and is married and has children if not grandkids now.

I dont' know about Jerome.

I don't think he's gay, but that's just my personal guess.

It's ironic, though, given the whole "shtick" MOrris and he used to do and even the way Tricky acted in UTCM. IN fact, I never udnerstood why they never got flack for using stereoptyical gay/campy attitude? (given most people's attitudes back then)

I don't know if he's gay in real life,but he certainly acted gay in that movie

Jermoe is about as gay as Prince and has Grandkids.

That's not true...Prince is WAY gay. Even if hasn't hooked up w/a dude since the 70s he's super gay.

Anyway...

In 1990 I was insignifgantly involved in the direct action group Queer Nation in Minneapolis. One of the first demos they decided to do was a sorta protest at a GLAM SLAM 'ladies night'. I never understood why people were protesting ladies night, but i went to the dmo anyway, cause I wanted to support the group, and I wanted to hang out @ glam slam (!). I was 18.

So all I remember about the demo really is that it was cold out, and Jerome Benton showed up. I got all exited. I felt more allegiance to Jerome and the Prince camp then i did to Queer Nation. We tried to hand him a flyer saying we were from Queer Nation, and Jerome goes: "If GOD wanted gay people he would have made Adam and Steve not Adam and Eve."

I was pretty dissapointed in him.

You should have asked him why HE acted so gay in 'UTCM'

Y'know, it never occoured to me that Jerome 'acted gay'in Under the Cherry Moon until I read it here at The Org. I haven't seen that movie since I saw it on the first day it came out... the first 2:00 PM show, in Duluth Minnesota, by myself, when I was 14!

couple people here have been sniffin glue.....

I'm so tired of hearing that tired little rhyme. It's usually said by the biggest closet queen in a crowd. Hell, why don't they come up with a new rhyme because they have worn that one out. I would have had a rhyme to throw right back at his little ass too.....

Eve was sent to Adam for them to recreate
But for real satisfaction he had to masturbate
When Eve spit out the brats, her job was done
Then Adam was free to have some real fun
Steve was sent down and he aimed to please
And that….motherfucker…..is the birds and the bees
Now if you don't want a dick, then find a pussy to ram
But as far as you disapproving of others, I don't give a damn

You got something to SAY, Jerome? C'mon, bring it!

What's that from?

JudasLChrist said:

Shit.....I am too.


But now I'm really curious as to why he was acting like such a raging queen in UTCM.

Jerome's acting in UTCM was HORRIBLE!! Especially the part when he was crying after Prince got shot. "OH GOD...PLEASE... NOT HIM!" He looked like he was gonna bust out laughing at any minute!

Just bumpin this so that Jerome can keep up his bitchin....waaaaah. The Org thinks I'm gay waaaaahhhh. I'm the lowest paid member of The Time waaaahhhh

I agree,Jerome was terrible in 'UTCM'.I couldn't believe his character was behaving that way.Remember the scene where he gets his feelings hurt because Prince (Christopher) spends the night with Mary?

"No,you didn't get waylaid...you got la-id"

he acted like a rejected lover,lol

comeongyrlfriend, U know anybody whose $ depdends on Prince's mood's 2 get paid needs all the LOVE they can get

if anybody cares when they check back here Jerome is a married father & Morris is married (twice) & N the 2nd marriage had the special gift of a 3rd (?) child & 1st grandchild arriving the same year yeas....cuzzin works the thang

hey romieroam: don't get twisted like the one who twisted U & 4get who supports yo lifestyle = afterall...them folks was @ yo show

B peaceful

Prince aint gay.
Jerome aint gay.
Morris aint gay.

Jerome is very straight (does he still have a fear of water!)
Morris lives in Atlana or something like that.
As far as anyone saying prince is gay well can't say what he did in his spare time fyi - The boy is definitely NOT Gay.(though he did have an uncle that was transexual that he was close to)
Men that like to wear women's clothing are necessarily gay.
Besides womens clothes used to fit him better.
Have you ever seen a small/ and tiny mens store????

DavidEye said:

oh my god i thought i was the only one who thought he was over reacting to Prince getting laid by Mary!!!

I should start one of those! lol

WHO CARES IF THEY ARE OR AREN'T GAY?!?!?

And it seems pretty obvious by now that they are not. Playing on their sexuality has ALWAYS been a part of their mystique/aura/performance WHATEVER!!!

I agree, last time I checked it was all about the music, not their sexual preferences.

DMSR1671 said:

I'm sayin...

And by now I'm pretty damn sure that Jerome is VERY comfortable with his sexuality...He knew what he was doing when he played and how he played the role of Tricky. Besides men have always alluded to bi-sexuality or whatever in comedy...Whatever crawled up Jerome's cranky ass that night probably had little to do with what we think of his sexuality!

I think Terrilicious & I are the same page...
I think Jerome's comments had to do with the fact that some people post things that may or may not necessarily be true, therefore he was right to a point, they do need to get a life if that's the case. Either way, he's still not putting food on my table and I'm sure he's not sitting at home worried about what's posted on this site.
