BELAFONTE'S FORBIDDEN BROMANCE WITH FIDEL!

CALYPSO king Harry Belafonte helped break down racial barriers during his accomplished entertainment career — but sources say the civil rights activist went to his grave unrepentant about his unwavering support for murderous Cuban dictator Fidel Castro!

Insiders close to the Banana Boat singer gab he never reneged on his 40-year friendship with the late strongman, whose Communist regime is believed to have killed as many as 110,000 of its own citizens, while imprisoning millions more in the island nation. Backlash over their bromance hurt Harry’s career.

“Harry definitely had a blind spot when it came to Fidel,” squeals an insider. “He overlooked many atrocities in proclaiming him a hero of the working man.”
