Hudson wasn't G-manly enough for FBI chief
J. Edgar Hoover's obsession with Rock Hudson's gay lifestyle caused Universal Studios to alter a movie in which he starred, a new book claims. The FBI director, a lifelong bachelor who may or may not have been a cross-dresser, had agents in the L.A. office interrogating men who'd partied with Hudson, claims Nick Redfern in "Celebrity Secrets: Government Files on the Rich and Famous" (Paraview), out Feb. 20. Reports (filed under Hudson's given name, Roy Harold Scherer Jr.) reached the FBI as early as the 1950s that the straight-shooting Hollywood star wasn't quite so straight.

It is likely that output fell marginally in the year, following attacks on its production facilities in Nigeria.
