Michael K. Williams -- gay?

He's the black Clint Eastwood -- Omar from The Wire. He's 50 but never married and well he was very convincing as a gay man on The Wire.

Any rumors? Now and then he's seen dating women but well, you know ....

How is he the black Clint Eastwood?

He's always among a movie's highlight. Deserves a good lead role.

r2, he's not its just some cunts way of sounding cool.

I remember reading somewhere that he was, the source sounded pretty convincing but take that for what it is.

I've thought so only because he seeks out gay roles: The Wire, Hap and Leonard, he played a drag queen/maybe a trans woman in "Triple Nine" (a very small role), and the upcoming Dustin Lance Black miniseries "When We Rise".

I think he is. If I remember correctly from a radio interview he did with Wendy Williams years ago, she ran into him having lunch with a guy in NYC, and I think they both just implied it was a business lunch, but you know messy ass Wendy wouldn't have brought it up for no reason.

He is bisexual, and it is obvious. He is also a great actor.

He lives in Brooklyn crown heights. I am not sure if he still lives there. He looks like he might be Haitian.

He's a great actor and needs a lead in a movie. If he's gay, lovely.

He is probably bi. He is currently dating the actress Tasha Smith. I guess it could be for publicity but why? I have seen them together several times in Atlanta,

R12 he also dated Heather Hunter and she is also bisexual, and would not date a man unless he was going to fuck her.

OMAR!

I love Omar. Always brilliant. I want to see him in a movie with Don Cheadle, another brilliant black actor.

I think he's gay or bi. His biggest inspiration is Janet Jackson and he used to do the choreography for house music diva Crystal Waters (100% Pure Love video is his work).

There was a Breakfast Club interview a few years ago and I think for some reason there was something in the news about whether a gay rapper/actor could come out or whatever. I don't remember what the specific question was (it might have been later in the interview), but he gave a very vague answer about 'some things he's done in his past' - "and i'll just leave it at that" and he said it in such a way that they knew not to ask anything more about it.

I know that's vague as hell and my memory is foggy, but he might have just been talking about his prior drug use (he was a hard core junkie) or homosexuality or whatever. Not to stereotype but I got the sense he indulged in a lot of debauchery in his youth and was probably giving it up to anyone (for drugs or just for fun lol).

The interview should still be online but they are long and i'm too lazy to watch through them.

I think he's an excellent actor (amazing presence more than anything), comes across well in interviews, and I love Tasha Smith too. Fun, quirky couple. I think she actually has some lez rumours as well (never married, no kids, etc.).
