Another day, another reason for us to dislike Todrick Hall. Of course, these are allegations, but if this latest one is true, then he must really be competing for human trash can of the year…
Adult performer Tommy Italiano worked for Hall back in 2017 and now on the Zen Blonde podcast, he’s cliaming that Todrick threatened to out his HIV status and “destroy his career”.
“It’s been a tumultuous relationship from the beginning,” Italiano recalled. “Workwise and personally. He is someone that’s very manipulative.”
“I was able to look past some of the things he was doing because he really made me believe I was part of his family. He would call me his brother. His mom would tell me I was like a son. So I really became invested in him as a person and as an artist.”

He goes on to spill an entire kettle of tea, including a number of accusations that we’ve heard repeatedly before; not paying his staff, exploiting fans and cyber bullying one of his dancers.
His behaviour on the most recent Celebrity Big Brother US makes this all the more believable; Hall was seen weaponising race, telling Lamar Odam that he as a black man should save him over ‘some white blonde chick’.
However, things took a really nasty turn after Todrick’s former dancer Tom White exposed his behaviour in a Twitter thread, something that Tommy defended. Hall then called Tommy, a conversation that saw Italiano demanding an apology from Hall for how he treated him.

Tommy told Todrick that if he couldn’t apologise, he would make the news public.
“Then in the middle of the conversation,” Italiano continued, “he started threatening me and says, ‘Well, if you say anything about me, I’m going to go on my YouTube channel and I’m going to say that you have HIV and that you have unprotected sex with people and you don’t tell them and I’m going to destroy your reputation. I’m going to destroy your career, and this will be the last time you ever work again.’”
While Hall did not publicly expose him, he did call Tommy’s mother and reveal his HIV status to her.
EWW. Honestly, who would do that? Trash.
Italiano also posted on Twitter a while back, that Todrick repeatedly sexually harrassed his employees “treating them like escorts” by touching them inappropriately and exposing himself:
