Because I personally don’t think that there is such a thing as gay mannerisms. But that question would be for a different section of these boards 🙂 .

My question is, name a celebrity who acts gay, but who _clearly_ isn’t. I personally am thinking mostly of males. But you can include females.

I would like to start with Michael Dorn, who played the Klingon Worf on _Star Trek: the Next Generation_. He did do a convincing Klingon. But I have noticed that out of makeup he does act a little effeminate. Yet he clearly isn’t. (FWIW [here](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Dorn) is his Wikipedia article.)

Remember no outing. I’m only looking for celebrities who appear to be gay.

🙂

I don’t think the OP intended this to be offensive, but it clearly is.

Closed.
