TAYLOR LAUTNER IS GAY, OR NOT, OR MAYBE, OR PROBABLY
December 29 2011
Los Angeles, CA – Eventually, inevitably, that which made you will also destroy you, especially in Hollywood. Almost to a person stars ride a wave to success, largely in the modern era off media coverage, and are undone by the exact same mechanism, either broken apart by scandal or simply passed over for the next big thing on the horizon.
No matter who the star is, no matter how big they are, they will inevitably have to deal with one of those two eventualities, scandal or irrelevancy, and it will likely come at the hands of the very same forces which created them.
That is exactly what Taylor Lautner is starting to experience now. The ‘Twilight’ has enjoyed a relatively calm ascent, but now that he has started to get closer to the top, the knives have come out. He’s a bad actor, few will debate that, and he’s not very bright, again something few will argue, but it is Lautner’s latest scandal that will likely define where the star goes in the future.
Specifically, that scandal revolves around a mock People magazine cover which depicts Lautner as a proud gay man, something many are just now going to accept as fact and something which inevitably will dog his career for as long as it exists, or at least until he finally admits that her prefers the company of men.
“Tired of rumors, the 'Twilight' star opens up about his decision to finally come out. ‘I’m more liberated, and happier than I’ve ever been,” read the fake cover which sparked a nationwide sensation, even drawing other stars out to support Lautner.
“...proud of Taylor Lautner for his bravery and his courage,” tweeted Russell Simmons whose proactive support indicates that he may be gay as well, despite having a girlfriend.
Lautner has also had a handful of girlfriends, but that does not mean that he isn’t gay.
“There are very few gay people in Hollywood, at least high profile people, and that really means that there are a lot of people who are still in the closet. Just on a numbers basis, never mind the dramatic flair of gay men, there would have to be more high profile gay men than we see right now and so when a rumour starts to swirl, it’s pretty safe to assume that it’s accurate,” said Scrape TV Sexual Identity ana
lyst Maria Kant. “This is the first time
I’ve heard this about Lautner but it makes sense, total sense in fact. Now I can’t imagine him not being gay, can’t even imagine a time when I could have thought that he wasn’t gay, and that makes him pretty gay.”
Lautner has not been spotted in the arms of another man yet, but neither has Tom Cruise.
“I think him coming out would be a great thing. He is hot and popular and if he came out it would do a lot for young gay men and boys, most of whom probably already know he’s gay. Not that they’ve had sex with him or anything, but they can always tell,” continued Kant. “I mean it’s not like every gay person knows each other or that they have all had sex. There’s just too many and bagging a big star like that would be tough, especially since he is so repressed and trying to keep it quiet. It’s really a shame. He should be who he is, not what other people expect him to be.”
Lautner is not dating any female at the moment, suspiciously.
