“Glee” star Matthew Morrison: “I’m not gay”

Yes, he has starred in Broadway musicals, yes he has a lot of gay fans and yes, Matthew Morrison is the star of Glee, the gayest show on broadcast television in eons.

But that does not mean the handsome, sexy and single 31-year-old actor is gay.

Advocate.com has posted a portion of an interview Matthew gave to Elle magazine where he makes clear his sexual orientation:

lle: So, Matt, you’re a musical theater star who’s been interviewed by The Advocate and much discussed on Manhunt.com, and you star in Glee, a program that’s referred to as “the gayest show on TV.” You must feel particularly proud being the first gay man to grace this page.
Morrison: I’m not gay.

I had indeed read in various places that you’re straight, but in light of the circumstantial evidence, I wasn’t sure.
I grew up singing and dancing, so people have been calling me gay since fifth grade. I’ve heard everything you could possibly hear about it. But I do love gay people, so I’m not going to act like I was insulted or angry about it.
