Which actors are gay?

Answer 1

Don't Believe Everything You ReadUnless the celebrity has "come out of the closet" and confirmed they are either bisexual or gay, then it's unfair to drop any celebrities name just for the sake of gossip. Example: A tabloid made the statement that Tom Cruise was gay and he sued and won. If you aren't gay then you certainly don't want to be dubbed gay. If gay, then there should be no reprocussions from this and it should not interfere with being an actor. Actors should be able to play straight people, gay people, or a straight person should be able to play gay (Robin Williams did in "Bird Cage" and was dubbed as being gay.)

Here are a very few names, but it will get you started:

• T.R. Knights from Grey's Anatomy
• Rosie O'Donnell
• Neil Patrick Harris as Doogie Howser, M.D.
• Lance Bass ('n Sync member)
• Ellen De Generes
• K.D. Lang
• Carson Kressley/Ted Allen/Thom Filicia/Jai Rodriquez/Kyan Douglas from "Queer Eye for the Straight Guy"
• Ru Paul (runway model and Drag Queen)
• Cynthia Nixon
• Richard Harris as Survivor winner
• Melissa Etheridge
• Chad Allen (in "Dr. Quinn Medicine Woman)
• Nathan Lane (Bird Cage)
• Dan Butler (played "Bulldog" on "Frasier")
• Sir Elton John
• Harvey Fierstein
• Rupert Everett
• George Takei (Star Trek)
• Greg Louganis (former U.S. Olympic Diver)
• George Michael
• Boy George
• Danny Roberts (of "The Broken Hearts Club)
• Christopher Rice (author and his author mother is Anne Rice)
• Fred Schnieder (lead singer of the B52s)
• B.D. Wong (plays Dr. George Huang in "Law & Order)
• Sandra Bernhard
• James Dean (bisexual...deceased)
• Madonna (bisexual)
• Courtney Love (bisexual)
• Alicia Keys
• Anthony Hopkins
• David Bowie
• Clay Aiken

Ever since Hollywood first began there were tales of wild times and orgies (and there were) loaded with drugs, prohibition booze and according to everyone else, everyone was gay. It was said that many Casting Directors wanted, shall we say favors for a good role and this also not only included women breaking into the acting business, but men.

Answer 2

There are many gays in the acting industry. There are also a lot of rumors. It is best to only believe what the actors are open about themselves. There are probably too many gay actors to create a full list, but some openly gay actors are:

• Clay Aiken

• George Michael (singer/songwriter)
• David Hyde Pierce
• Neil Patrick Harris
• Luke MacFarlane
• Lance Bass

• Ru Paul
• George Takei
