TALKING OUT LOUD

Living in Hollywood, when you keep hearing consistent chatter about someone, it is usually a fact. Do any persistent names come to mind????

We always heard chatter that Zachary Quinto was gay. Finally!!! We can report it!!

Not once but twice, Quinto refers to himself as a "gay man."

In an interview to New York Magazine, the actor discusses his role in Angels in America (Quinto played Louis Ironside, a man who abandons his AIDS-stricken boyfriend):

“ [This is the] most challenging thing I’ve ever done as an actor, and the most rewarding.....

At the same time, as a gay man, it made me feel like there’s still so much work to be done, and there’s still so many things that need to be looked at and addressed.”

*******

[Quinto] speaking of the cultural bipolarity that can see gay marriage legalized in New York in the same year that yet another gay teenager, Jamey Rodemeyer, was bullied and killed himself, Quinto says, “And again, as a gay man I look at that and say there’s a hopelessness that surrounds it, but as a human being I look at it and say ‘Why? Where’s this disparity coming from, and why can’t we as a culture and society dig deeper to examine that?’ We’re terrified of facing ourselves.”
