Luke MacFarlane: I’m Gay

Canadian actor Luke MacFarlane reveals that he is gay in an exclusive interview with Canadian paper Globe and Mail.

“I don’t know what will happen professionally,” MacFarlane said. “That is the fear, but I guess I can’t really be concerned about what will happen, because it’s my truth. … There is this desire in L.A. to wonder who you are and what’s been blaring for me for the last three years is how can I be most authentic to myself - so this is the first time I am speaking about it in this way.”

In next month’s season finale of Brothers & Sisters, Luke, 28, will suit up and say his vows as his character, Scotty Wandell, marries his partner, Kevin Walker.

“From a standing outside perspective, and also as someone who is gay, I think that it’s a very exciting time,” MacFarlane said. “How exciting that we’re saying, ‘This can be part of the cultural fabric, now,’ because it is two series regulars, two people that you invite into your home and you see every week. It’s telling of the beginning of more waves and I’m very proud of that.”

When asked whether or not he was currently dating anyone, Luke declined to comment. And although Luke is not a paparazzi favorite, photogs did catch him hanging out with Prison Break hottie Wentworth Miller last summer.

never heard of him.

“…deniers. Get a clue!”

Well, to “deny” something, you must have the proof first, no?

Oh yeah they are two hot guys, with a preference for Went ;-)

If Wentworth Miller isn’t gay, he certainly is on the waiting list

Handsome man.

And I love his smile!

gay is like being black in hollywood, your roles are severly limited, why limit yourself by telling being your gay, all these people who are saying it doesn’t matter to me if when is gay, or that luke is, it does matter to Hollywood producers and cast directors, he will never get any leading roles, being an actor and a celebrity implies that people know about your personal life, when something as your sexuality comes it, it changes the way people percieve, you become associated with everything gay, GLAAD starts calling, people (gay) and organizatins (gay pro) starts using you as their poltical puppit, you become owned by a label, its sad, but its reality, its never inn to be GAY, being straight is much easier because people get to know you for your roles, I can’t watch a Jodie Foster movie anymore without thinking wow she is a lesbian, she is lying when she is playing a straight role, or have someone come in a tell me you know she is gay, this will not change for a while, RUMORS are only cool when there rumers, once their confirmed it changes everthing,I see to WENTWORTH, whether he is or not, keep telling people that your straight, and who are we to say that he is gay, only the person in question knows their own sexuality

Come on the reason why Luke hung out with Wentworth last summer
was for a publicity stint. Unknown celebs do that all the time.
Duh!

sona.. I got the sarcasm… Although, for the benefit of any not-so-bright users who may be reading, you might want to add some html at the end of your post. :P

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Haha, you know, I never even THOUGHT of doing that and then I posted and I was like “well crap, people are gonna jump over that thinking I’m serious!” so I made a second post to point out my sarcasm, haha. Next time I will remember my emoticons! :D

i know that …old subject

where can i find his telephone number?

I’m glad to know that Luke came out so now he can do what he wants and people will stop speculated about him!!!

About Wentworth, he can do what he wants too, if he’s gay or not it’s NOT our businness!! C’mon people go out and have a life!!

i’m agree with jake (#66).

BROWN-EYED GIRL @ 04/16/2008 at 8:08 am

LUKE IS OUT??!!! NO SURPRISE HERE!!! Now hopefully Luke will step out with his real life boyfriend and prove once and for all that he is NOT and NEVER WAS with Wentworth. He’s been with his artist bf the whole time the gay rumors with him and Wentworth surfaced. But Luke, the idiot, remained silent the whole time and let the rumors snowball all for the sake of his own career. Like everyone didn’t already know he was gay, give me a break! He’s a selfish jerk. While Wentworth’s reputation was on the line, he’s sitting back and enjoying notoreity. What kind of friend is that?!!!!

To all you delusional people who think Wentworth is gay, WAKE UP because he is NOT!!! Wentworth has said a few times already that he is NOT gay, so get over it. Went is an honest man with integrity and morals. He is not going to lie over and over again to his fans whom he cares for about his sexuality all for the sake of his show or career. He’d rather not work in this business than to lie. He’s an upstanding man with principles. Anyone who is a fan of his knows this about him. So all the people accusing him of lying are haters of Went.

I have proof that Went & Luke are NOT and NEVER WAS an item. And it’s obvious Went is not that good a friend of Luke’s either, let alone his bf. Luke’s father passed away in December, 2007 and was buried on December 20, 2007 in Canada where Luke grew up. On the very same day JUST JARED posted photos of Wentworth Christmas shopping in L.A. Obviously Went & Luke were not an item because Went would have been with Luke at his dad’s funeral. So there’s the proof, look it up. And stop saying they were together all because they hung out one day last Summer. The rumor is just that, a STUPID - ASS rumor that should have died by now. Only STUPID - ASS IDIOTS keep it alive.

BTW - JJ should not have mentioned Wentworth’s name when posting Luke’s coming out. That was low! Now this whole gay debate is starting all over again. HOW PATHETIC!

Brown-eyed girl

Sorry, but you are the idiot, not Luke. And Went Christmas shopping photos was taken on December 18 and look at his face…

not to fuel the rumor, yea, went did look kinda in a non-smiling mood in his banana rep shopping trip pics. but if the pics were taken on the 18th, and luke’s dad funeral was on the 20th, that means.. what? what’s the custom in canada? did the family wait 2 days? but even if went is upset over the news, why would he be shopping on the day? doesn’t make sense.

let’s analyze and play detective, folks!

If you’re going to speculate then probably best to speculate about accurate dates. Luke’s father died on the 14th December, the family received friends at the funeral chapel on the 18th (same day as the pics of Went shopping) and the funeral itself was held on the 19th.

I knew it, first time I saw Wentwoth I knew he was gay

yup, wentworth IS gay. I have it from a reliable source in south Texas. No shocker here folks.

“I didn’t think i’d have to say this again. I posted earlier, in January maybe, that Luke is somebody I’ve known for several years and he NEVER dated Miller. At the time he was photog with Miller he was in a relationship with D.G. who is a painter and a musician like me. I know them both and they joked about the story. Luke even said that he didn’t know much about Miller who was polite and friendly but very secretive. He doesn’t know if Miller is gay or not. Don’t believe me if you like and carry on speculating, I don’t care.

Just a thought... @ 04/16/2008 at 11:18 am

Just a thought, but what if Wentworth didn’t go to the funeral because that would potentially have made it into a circus all about him?

Imagine if someone had taken photographs of the two of them together there? Then a very sad and private family moment would have become the subject of massive internet traffic and rumors.

Wentworth certainly looked sad and preoccupied in those photographs taken on the 18th December — and he could have gone shopping in order to get out of the house and occupy himself.

I’m not saying this is the reason why he didn’t go to the funeral with Luke, but it’s a possibility.

OMG I can’t believe you are actually talking about Luke’s father and speculating about when exactly there was the funeral… I mean you girls are SICK, did you know that? Please go out and have a life!

If Wentworth is gay or not, the truth is: you can’t be his girlfriend because he’s gorgeous and everything but he is a famous person so he’s unapproachable. He can be your favourite actor not your husband!
End of discussion.

congrats. for people who r asking where he is from, he’s in Brothers & Sisters

http://arabaquarius.blogspot.com/

First of all… I thought he already was out. Hm… and secondly… I’m *so* glad Kevin gets to marry Scotty… I hate the good Senator’s brother… both the character and the actor are creepy *shudders* I just adore Scotty. And Kevin of course LOL.

Now, now… that’s not true ;)

Good for this guy coming out of the closet….

BROWN-EYED GIRL @ 04/16/2008 at 5:32 pm

@jb,

No you’re the idiot. Too bad I got the date wrong. Either way, Went was NEVER in a relationship with Luke so get over it you dumb-ASS. The point is Went was NOT with Luke during his father’s funeral. If he was his boyfriend, he wouldn’t have been in L.A. hanging out and Christmas shopping. So stop with all your stupid rumors. You are delusional.

And why should Went be smiling in those pics of him Christmas shopping? He doesn’t even know he’s being photographed. Do you smile constantly while shopping? He’s expressionless, not sad. Grow up you idiot!!!

Read “Datalounge’s” comment #79. He is telling the truth!!

I can see you are gay…

At #? Anyone Who Thinks Wentworth is gay

First of all, all the haters out there who keep saying that Wentworth is gay, calling people like me, deniers, and idiots and $#!t, you are the ones in denial, you are the idiots and you are the delusional ones. Wentworth has said time and time again that he is NOT gay. If you don’t believe the words from Wentworth himself, then that would make YOU all that I previously mentioned, not us, the ones who believe him.

Second of all, only YOU would turn this whole story around and make it about Wentworth being gay. I have to say that it’s not just your fault though, Jared is just as much to blame as you. He just had to mention Wentworth’s name again but your stupid asses fell for the bait. Everytime you comment on this, that’s one more hit added to his site. This story is about the gay guy–>Luke, not the straight guy–> Wentworth.

Jared, I am slowly but surely becoming a non-visitor to this site if you keep this $#!t up. And it not just because it’s Wentworth. I’m pissed at you for doing this no matter who the person is that you keep victimizing with this charade. Luke has been seen with lots of men since last August. You DID NOT have to, as Wentworth would say, “feed this beast again.” And right now, I’m really hating you for it, too.

I’m in total agreeance with Brown-Eyed Girl.
For all of you “people” who are hatin’ on Wentworth, are gay and just want him to be gay to fulfill your “deviant fantasies,” or for those of you who are straight freaks and love to watch gay sex, or the mention of anything gay because you’re young, stupid, and trendy, and it’s the “in thing” right now, YOU need to get a clue. Wentworth is not gay. I’m done with this $#!t! As of now, this topic is so dead to me.

**AMEN**AMEN**AMEN**AMEN**AMEN**AMEN**AMEN**AMEN**AMEN**AMEN**AMEN**AMEN**

fangirls are SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO stupid, wentworth miller IS gay!!

It’s Official
Luke MacFarlane is officially ‘out’ as a gay man. But, this should come as no surprise to readers of PerezHilton.
We told you repeatedly about Luke’s relationship with closeted Prison Break hottie Wentworth Miller.
MacFarlane also briefly dated Grey’s Anatomy’s T.R. Knight last year.
He gets around!
Luke, a Canuck, tells Canada’s Globe and Mail that it’s the upcoming marriage of his gay character in the ABC hit show Brothers & Sisters that inspired him to go public with his sexual orientation.
MacFarlane admits feeling a bit ‘terrified’ about the public revelation. He says, “I don’t know what will happen professionally … that is the fear, but I guess I can’t really be concerned about what will happen, because it’s my truth.”
The truth will always set you free!
This will HELP your career, honey!
