John Revolta Tom Cruise Matt Damon and his husband Ben Affleck Val Kilmer Ryan Reynolds Alec Baldwin

Matt Gaetz

Miss Lindsey

"Matt Damon and his husband Ben Affleck Val Kilmer Ryan Reynolds Alec Baldwin"

Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz...

R1, the "the guys I want to be gay ARE gay" troll.

Cory Booker

Rosario Dawson

Simple: People who are in the closet.

R3- Your gaydar SUCKS. I'm NOT attracted to those CLOSET QUEENS

Aaron Rodgers

Cory Booker Shawn Mendes Taylor Lautner

R6, it's not my gaydar, darling.

Timothee Chalamet

Leonardo DiCaprio, Bradley Cooper, Ryan Seacrest

Why do people think Matt Damon is gay? That one I just don't understand.

Because they're deluded queens, R12.

Dame Cliff Richard

R12 I agree. Matt Damon doesn't ping but he's pushed as being closeted gay on many DL threads. Is it just wishful thinking on the part of a few DLers who consistently post about him?

David Muir

How about everyone mind their own business. Let's try that, no one is obligated to anyone else's life.

Zac Efron

R17 WTF are you doing on DL? "Mind your own business"? DL makes everyone's business OUR business!

Miles Heizer

how about people who would be better off if they had stayed in the closet

R7 Remember that OP asked "who'd be BETTER OFF by coming out of the closet." Aaron Rodgers would not be better off coming out as long as he's in the NFL. We'll find out about him much later in his life.

Just make sure you’re career isn’t dictated by crazy hormonal teenage girls who demand that you be straight.

^^ Sorry your

[quote]Aaron Rodgers would not be better off coming out as long as he's in the NFL

So how many more fucking years/decades do we have to wait for a major male athlete to have the guts to come the fuck out while currently playing? It’s getting ridiculous.

Harrison from the Lowe's thread.

R25 Why are female athletes so much braver about coming out than men? Maybe male athletes see how the women are treated after they come out--the public scorn that's heaped on them--and men don't have the balls to take it. They need to keep their macho image.

It's easier for female athletes to be out, that's why

Taylor Lautner recently sold his house. He must be running out of money. Acting gigs are few and far between. It might be time for him to come out. It might revive his career

Shawn Mendes. His career isnt really going anywhere and the fauxmance with Camila, who is also floundering, didnt help either of them. Everybody knows. He could honestly be the new fresh face of the gays if his team/label would allow it. Right now he looks more like a joke.

Andrew Gillum

Lindsey Graham

Richard Madden

Adam Kinzinger

John Travolta

David Muir. We know you don't have a girlfriend, bro.

Anyone over the age of 22 who is closeted.

Sam Heughan

Timothee Chalamet. Everybody knows and he’ll never be able to play straight convincingly.

Shawn Mendes. He can make up for the showmance by coming out and showing that ass of his.

Patrick Schwarzenegger. Living off daddy will be his only talent so why not come out? Arnie knows.

Jared Kushner has sired enough crotchfruits, now he can come out.

R12- A lot of people think he's gay because he is GAY.

Mike Pence.

Timothy Chamlet is so nelly I can't believe anyone thinks he's straight.

Marcus Bachmann

The poster boy for proving conversion therapy doesn't work.

AMERICA SAYS - John Michael Higgins.

Miss Lindz

Henry Cavill

Seacrest...out.

Celine Dion

Zac Efron. Just do it already.

Joe Pesci, Michael Cera, John Goodman, Ed O'Neill, Tarantino, Jimmy Fallon, Joe Rogan, James Corden, Keith Urban, Henry Rollins, Kathy Bates, Kevin Conroy (and yes, I'm serious)

I second Mike Pence..he gave himself away when he made anyone trying to get same sex married in IN go to jail for a yr just for applying!

I will never buy Damon or Affleck as straight and no, I'm not R1 -- while we're at it; Clooney

Is Julian Morris still "in"?

Richard Armitage

Richard Madden

Miles Heizer

Henry "I do my own stunts" "I build big muscles" "I like chicks but Metoo scared me" Cavill.

Tom Cruise aka "Tammy"

- for the love of Xenu, come on out already

I don't know what the deal is with .Damon... There were stories that his wife's brother has lived with them from day one and he is the one Matt is actually with but I've never seen any pictures after all these years...

Aflac I have never thought to be closeted.

In the aughts I thought for sure .Cl00ney, like his fellow tv doctor heartthrob Richard Chamberlain, would come out in his senior years after career no longer mattered and write a book. But now what with his alleged SINISTER activities he has to stay IN and bearded and keep selling the charade til the day he dies.

[quote] I don't know what the deal is with .Damon... There were stories that his wife's brother has lived with them from day one and he is the one Matt is actually with but I've never seen any pictures after all these years..

Does he have a rabbit face too?

[quote]Seacrest...out.

I've never understood what motivates Ryan Seacrest to stay closeted. He never has to worry about money for the rest of his life plus I don't think anyone would be shocked to know he really likes the cock anyway, so what's the point? My only guess is that he thinks of himself as being an all-things-to-all-people kind of personality and being openly gay would "taint" him and thereby make him less appealing to the straight/family portion of his audience.

Since David Muir has kept his private life locked tight, his coming out should be easy.

Saoirse Ronan and Lupita Nyong'o

Steele Johnson ..... so gay here .... the eyebrows!!!!

Queen Latifah.

(I know it's always the women who come out, and good for them, but who would be shocked in this case?)

R61 He was pretty much letting the cat out the bag with his fanning over Henry Cavill. It starts at 1:13

Another vote for Travolta. His career is pretty much over at this point, so what does he have to lose? And if he did come out, then $cientology (likely) wouldn't have anything embarrassing to hold over him, and he could stop being blackmailed into giving them more money for "auditing" or whatever.

Elton John should come out.

Top of the list:

R69, R20

Everyone knows

IMO, David Muir, Ryan Seacrest, and Keanu Reeves could all come out of the closet without huge negative impacts on their careers.

Cory Booker can maybe now come out as bisexual without huge negative impact. If he had not made a big deal out of Rosario Dawson, he could come out as gay. Not sure, though. More stigma about being a gay male in the African American community, though.

I agree about Muir, Reeves, and Seacrest. If everyone knows you're gay and you're likeable enough, you could say you're gay. Or, if you want to play it safe, you can say you're bisexual or an LGBTQ+50 member.

Chris Pine

At this point, Leo would have more respect if stopped with the 23 year old girls and just come out.

Seacrest is doing exactly what Leo is doing, as if he's fooling anyone.

[quote]I agree about Muir, Reeves, and Seacrest. If everyone knows you're gay and you're likeable enough, you could say you're gay. Or, if you want to play it safe, you can say you're bisexual or an LGBTQ+50 member.

I think Henry Cavill can too, in fact, he might get more work than he's got now, which is just one project, The Witcher.

Miles Heizer is the non-ironic definition of “I’m not gay... but my boyfriend is.”

R74 he still helped burn down a fucking rainforest. We don’t want him.

[quote] Damon... There were stories that his wife's brother has lived with them from day one and he is the one Matt is actually with.

This seems to be the set-up Kevin Jonas has with Dani & Mike Deleasa. Having one’s BIL live permanently in the house is a conspicuous arrangement, even for Jersey Italians. Even weirder is how the Jonas Brothers have spent the last ten years trying to prove to the world that they’re ok with gays but won’t come out themselves.

While we’re talking about popular teen stars of the ‘00s, Josh Peck should really just admit that he prefers men. His wife has the baby she wanted from him and she’s from money herself, so she won’t care.

Not sure why qwerty never came out. It was obvious to everyone twenty years ago.

Last I heard he bought a house in the Hills with his boyfriend easy as you please. He’s not really doing much to hide, but still hasn’t said the words publicly. Why?

Hunter Parrish, Chace Crawford, really all the Texans. It's just embarrassing Texans are so backwards.

R63

The comments below are the reason why Lupita won't come out of the closet.

Meryl Streep

not that she's gay, but it would finally be something interesting about her

I don’t think Timotay pings at all. Neither does Keanu

I think it’s time for Henry Cavill to come out. Everyone knows he’s GAY GAY GAY.

So Where have I been why is everyone so convinced Julian Morris is gay? Has there been solid evidence? This is news to me!

Anyone and everyone who is in the closet would be better off by coming out of it.

Shawn Mendes really would benefit. He’s kind of a joke now

JC Chasez.

This would be particularly great because it would make that trembling little snot Timberlake quake in fright for his own dwindling career.

Over the weekend I was rereading a book on being gay in Hollywood written in the 90s. There was a list of celebrities who were supposedly gay but not out. It was fascinating to see who has turned out to actually be gay and who appears to not have been.

I hope I live long enough to do another comparison in 30 years. I'm typically attracted to good-looking but slightly boring straight men. So, I will be waiting to see what develops with Cavill.

R90 So who was on that list ?

Yeah what was the book, r90?

Whaaaaaaat’s in the boooooooook?

David Muir could go out publicly with the boyfriend and not give a shit about being papped. A Jodie Foster type move.

If he's gay, I think Darren Criss could benefit by coming out It might lead to more work than the occasional Murphy project.

[quote] I think Darren Criss could benefit by coming out It might lead to more work than the occasional Murphy project.

Agreed.

David Muir was papped once with the boyfriend. Acted like he didn’t know him in the shot. Obviously Muir does give a shit or he wouldn’t be hiding him.

You'd think somebody would ask why a good looking man in the news media industry has never been publicly seen with a significant other. I give him credit for never playing stupid PR games.

Maybe his PR Team won’t let them ask the question.

There is something else up there than just a glass closet journalist.

Ben Barnes might finally be offered that role in a musical that he wants so badly.

Muir instagrams thirst traps for middle-age ladies who think he is single and hasn’t met the right girl. Wants you to think he is single and workaholic. He does play that PR game....

R86, do a search. He has a longtime bf who he lives with

Here's a good one, r86. They run up to Part 8.

I should've named this thread: Are there any celebrities who could possibly benefit from coming out of the closet?

david muir, gonna die that closet.

I used to hope Dan Harris was closeted but he just seems like a boring straight guy.

Do people no longer think George Stephanopoulos is closeted? Those rumors circulated for years but seem to have fallen off once he married Ali Wentworth.

Sebastian Stan

ABC is kinda gay

David Archuleta should definitely come out. He's not fooling anyone.

Hogan Gidley

is georgie s in the closet?

Who are the people mentioned at R109, R111 and R112?

Masculine actors on soaps.

Jake Gyllenhaal. He ain't fooling anybody.

Another reason why many actors don't want to come out is typecasting. If they come out, they'll likely be cast in gay roles.

Casted.

David Archuleta is a Mormon and based on the stories of his father being an asshole stage dad. I doubt he'll ever come out.

R116 Not true for Luke Evans.

Or Neil Patrick Harris.

Hogan "Quite Big Tits" Gidley

All he has to do is step out of the closet and ditch the ratty Korean wig and he'll get more dick than he could ever imagine.

Most of these people are just Datalounge Gay.

david muir imagine: how hard to hide your “secret” life?

Richard Simmons

R82, staged

R120, what?!

is david muir really gay? or just wishing w/o actual proof?

R127, where's the proof that he's straight?

there is no proof muir he is either than what is he?

R126 It was responding to the two posts above it.

Drake (Bell) & Josh (Peck).

As far as I can tell with my gaydar and my sleuthing abilities, they are in some sort of clandestine on-off relationship, possibly involving beard marriage and a kid. No-one is checking for them anymore, though, so there’s really no need for them to hide it.

R18 — we need Zac Efron to make an OnlyFans. I would pay full price to really see that pinga.

Finneas

Zac Efron, BCoop, Leo , Shalaine Woodley, Sandra Bullock

로버트 스콧 윌슨 and John Legend

Justine Trudeau
