Danny Gans killed by steroids? The Globe and Perez Hilton pick up our exclusive story-- 28 days later


Twenty-eight days after the sudden, tragic and mysterious death of Danny Gans, the Clark County Coroner has still not announced what killed the Las Vegas headliner-- but The Globe tabloid is now reporting what Tabloid Baby reported exclusively the day of Gans' death: that friends suspect steroid abuse.

The Globe reports in its latest issue that friends say Danny began to look "unnatural" and feared drugs were the reason.

Said one: "You can never look good enough or appear strong enough. People here believe it took it's toll on Danny."


As we reported on May 1st:

"Police say they do not suspect foul play in the death of Las Vegas superstar Danny Gans. People we've spoken to say two things: 'steroids' and 'Mirage curse'..."

We also reported on May 2nd:

"Vegas insiders have whispered to us about longtime suspicions that the former athlete had used steroids or human growth hormones. His facial characteristics had changed to the point that when we saw him on Larry King Live a couple of weeks ago... we didn't recognize him..."

Perez Hilton, who has not picked up our reports, follows up the Globe story and says: "No one can confirm that Danny had used steroids, but it hasn't stopped people from talking in Vegas and they feel Danny had used the drugs in secret for a very long time.

"'His facial characteristics had changed to the point that when we saw him… a couple of weeks ago, we didn't recognize him,' adds a source."

As for the Vegas media? From McCloud impersonator Tom Mitchell of the Las Vegas Review-Journal to casino-beholden comp queen and Tabloid Baby stalker Steve Friess (below left, who, after attacking and trying to stop our investigation, wrote on May 15th that "Gans' suspected steroid use has been out there for years"), not one so-called local "journalist" has investigated the issue that's been the talk of their town even before we broke the news on May 1st and, hours later, John Katsilometes of the Las Vegas Sun tiptoed around the subject.

We talked with a spokeswoman for the Clark County Coroner minutes ago. She said the long-awaited toxicology report on Gans is "still pending. Call back next week."

As for the Enquirer report? She put us on hold, came back and said, "We have no information on that."
