Neil Patrick Harris is gay and wants to quell any rumors to the contrary.

"(I) am quite proud to say that I am a very content gay man living my life to the fullest," Harris tells People magazine's Web site.

The 33-year-old actor said he was motivated to disclose his sexuality because of recent "speculation and interest in my private life and relationships."

I'm shocked.
"Altruism is killing America. We who want to save America must repudiate this killer, root and branch. We must understand and explain to others that the acceptance of altruism necessitates the violation of individual rights... and that the arguments for altruism are baseless..."

"Neil Patrick Harris stole my car."

"NPH wouldn't do that."

Not shocked that he's gay. I knew he didn't screw every chick on the set of Doogie.

Hasn't everyone known this since, like, the 80s?

I heard a rumor that Richard Simmons is gay.

One time I saw two guys holding hands.

They were playing basketball and one had fallen on the ground. They only held hands for a second, but then I saw another basketball player smack one of his teammates on the butt. Coincidence?

I'm shocked and angry about this, perhaps scientists should stop messing about with flu vaccines and invest a little more time in developing a proper cure.

I think it makes Barney an even better character. It takes some serious acting skill for a gay man to play such an awesomely mysonginistic role.

Can't we just move past the point that it is "news" every time someone is gay? We don't need press releases about where you put your genitalia.

When celebrities comeout, it is going to be news to someone, at least in the USA. The last "coming out" I can remember was Lance Bass.

NPH in Harold and Kumar = ACTING. Good actors can do a lot of things that aren't them. Wasn't it Lawrence Oliver who said "I'm an actor, of course I can portray a heterosexual!"...

Anyway, I really never have understood why the press would be so interested in what celebrities do in their off time-who gives a rat's naked tail? Oh yeah! I remember! The tabloid industry depends on this sort of news! Think of the poparazi who could be rendered unemployed if idiots stopped reading tabloids! </sarcasm>

I know
But since I was never into gossip, I had no idea this was a `hot topic' nor did I even really care for his true sexual orientation

Me neither. Probably people will be shocked to hear that [insert favorite celebrity here] uses toilet paper just like anybody else!
