My vote goes to Richard Dean Anderson. He may not seem gay to _you_. But, umm, well, OK, I guess he doesn’t seem gay to me either. But, hey, I can dream, can’t I?. * * * Virtually yours, DrMatrix ---

I missed this thread the first time through, so I’m glad it was resurrected. I see that several people asked about “Jack” on _Will & Grace_, which was going to be my question. He plays gay so well on that show (admittedly, as a stereotype), but he plays straight in all the commercials he’s in (and he’s in a lot – not that there are a whole lot of commercials in which homosexuals are featured). So does anybody know which it is? I think he’s funny either way, but it’s just one of those questions in life… 🙂 ---

Don’t know his name, but the “Jack” actor on “Will and Grace” has indeed given interviews stating that he’s gay. John Waters is a friend of mine, and as far as I know his health is OK–not that he would tell me if it wasn’t. I have it from friends of theirs that both Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman are straight–highly eccentric, but straight. I do wish Jodie Foster would come out–she could do a lot of good and, not being a sex symbol, it wouldn’t hurt her career. And what’s up with Matt Damon and Ben Affleck? C’mon, get a room! ---

Here’s a few for ya: Drew Carey and EVERYONE on “Whose Line is it Anyway”. Yes? No? 😉 ---
