Zachary Quinto Comes Out
Thank goodness Zachary Quinto has finally come out. In an interview with New York Magazine, the actor said about bullying, "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.”
I have for sure one blind item about Zachary but because it would have outed him I never revealed it. I will find it today and reveal it tomorrow. I am glad Zachary had the courage to come out and hope he gets a lot of love and support with his decision.
Good for him! And I'm glad you didn't out him. It's personal and I think everyone should have the right to reveal to who, where, and when they want.
ReplyDeleteIt's not like we didn't know, but good for him! It's fucking 2011, people should be able to be who they are, and not be ashamed.
ReplyDeleteAgree with the above sentiments- good for him, and wish him only the best. I too am glad that no one outed him other than himself, when he was ready and comfortable to do so.
ReplyDeleteAnd I still have the hots for him. Such a gorgeous man.
I love Zach Quinto a lot, and I love him even more right now. He did it his way, on his time, but this interview will help a lot of people today and I really, really, really admire that. Yes, a lot of people knew, but a lot did not. This makes today a very good day. :)
ReplyDeletenice for him and it's not a secret
ReplyDeleteHere's what ZQ wrote on his website:

judging by the responses I'm seeing on twitter, there are plenty of people who are surprised to hear this.
ReplyDeleteClassy, Zach, I like you even better now.
ReplyDeleteFS - It's hard to remember that the majority of the population don't frequent gossip sites, lol
He was great as Sylar in Heroes, when the show went downhill I kept watching just to see his character.
ReplyDeleteHe was looking so skinny for awhile, I hope he puts on a bit of weight.
I'm not familiar with much of his work but I'm happy he's able to come out. Best wishes to him.
ReplyDeleteI read his blog earlier today. It's been such an open secret. I mean, how could people be surprised unless they were just deliberately ignoring the facts? I have great respect for Zachary Quinto.
ReplyDeleteMore power to him.
I am so glad he did this. Even if most gossip-hounds already knew, this will make a big difference to a lot of people who had no idea. Good for him!
ReplyDeleteGood for him! I think his post will make a difference.
ReplyDeleteGood for him! Hope he feels relieved for not having to hide.
ReplyDeleteOn the other hand, bullies are there for every kind of person. I just had a conversation with a friend about a boss we used to have who very much is a bully (and we're all women). I do think, though, that in general, the extreme bullying we hear about is a small percentage of bullying. And now that it's a buzz word everyone wants to say they were bullied. Yeah, join the club. I don't think bullying is ever going to go away because it's something that may be ingrained in certain people, but definitely should work toward doing something about those who take it to the extreme and cause violence. Don't know how, but we should :-)
Good for him! And I like that the Post didn't turn the whole interview about him being gay- that it was just something he mentioned a couple of times. Because really, it's just another facet to a person- not their whole personality.
ReplyDeletelove him! glad he was comfortable doing this!
ReplyDeleteLove him! Sylar kept me watching Heroes for a long time. ZQ is a great actor.
ReplyDeleteNot surprised by this. Proud of him for being himself.
I remember a blind about a gay actor who refused to pander to his publicist and use a beard. I'm thinking this was ZQ.
Love him and glad he came out his way! I think he is hot hot hot in the movie Star Trek!
ReplyDelete@Sis - I agree, he makes a hot Spock!
ReplyDeleteI feel very happy for him. No one should have to live their life in lies & cover-ups, and that is a hard thing to do even when one is not famous.
Glad we live in a day and age where he is able to do this. Good for him!
ReplyDeleteAnd water is wet.
ReplyDeleteDidn't anyone see him on NoTORIus? No to the duh!
ReplyDeleteGood for him! Posts like these make my day better!
ReplyDeleteGood for him..........It won't hurt his career.
ReplyDeleteGood for him! Who's next? Jakey?
ReplyDeleteI am glad he did this. For all the people on other sites saying "oh, that just kills it for me" all I have to say to that is....Your chances of being with him are the same now as they were before. He's still hot.
ReplyDeleteGood for him. I wish him all the best.
ReplyDeletegood for him, people should be able to be just who they are. Not what the mob of society expects them to be.
ReplyDeleteI like this guy he looks like a very nice, easy going person. Whether he is gay or straight people should not judge him. The way I see it everybody has their right to live as they like.
ReplyDeleteHe's so intelligent, and pretty hot. Glad he got to a place where he is at peace with himself.
ReplyDeleteYay for Zach!
