Frankly some's private life should be private - whether you are gay or not is irrelevant to your acting abilities.
I have never really seen the problem - surely the great advantage of gay actors/boy band members is the fact that their female fans know that no other woman will take 'their man' so they remain available.”
It would be fine if life worked as sweetly as that.
As it stands presently, we have straight actors/actresses who are able to divulge at great length on film and print, on their relationships, partners, ideals, wants, needs and also able to take their partner of choice down the street freely, or to a premiere or opening of an envelope.
Then we have closeted celebs who....can't.
And a media and PR industry that thinks that's just dandy.
