I don't even know why ATRL did what they were told. TMZ painstakingly looks at every single court document. They would have published the story in a heartbeat if Colton's team followed through with the threat. ( which they would have lost)
It's just the nerve to call these pictures "photo shoots" when they are clearly being taken by him and look like just a boys night in with friends. If they were for a photoshoot then are their any receipts of the alleged "photoshoot" in any magazine or flyers, ****, ANYTHING?!
Being gay is working out very well for Sam Smith not hiding his identity and Matt Bomer is a hugely successful out gay actor like , it's more embarrassing hiding it this badly when the pictures and proof are splattered all over google image.
They need to be more concerned with getting those pictures off Google than worry about some forum that will go ahead and still post pictures of him regardless since technically it's NOT illegal since Colton and his PR people don't legally own the pictures. Unless Colton will admit to OWNING them, but seeing he can't be bothered by being associated with his suspicious gay behavior, then they can't threaten legal action. It's not defamation if the pictures clearly were not tampered with and he is in them. They would have had no case.
