Among the worst kept secret non-secrets in Hollywood is Kevin Spacey's sexual orientation. For whatever reason, Spacey chooses to remain mum on the topic, and it looks as if Andy Cohen is having none of it. According to The Gaily Grind (link below), Cohen has raised the issue of Spacey's sexuality a number of times recently, and has been very blunt in his assertions.
“Watch What Happens: Live” host Andy Cohen has outed Oscar-winner Kevin Spacey as gay in his new tell-all book, “The Andy Cohen Diaries: A Deep Look at a Shallow Year.”
Cohen writes in an entry dated Sept. 9, 2013, that he and his dad were at the U.S. Open men’s finals: “Kevin Spacey was in front of us with a face full of makeup and three male companions who were definitely NOT raising any questions.”
When openly gay star Neil Patrick Harris dropped by Andy’s show, the two debated Spacey’s sexual orientation. “NPH and I talked about a lot of gay stuff, including debating Kevin Spacey; I still get enraged when I think about him talking about being in love with that woman on 60 Minutes. Come out, sir.”
This coupled with The Enquirer's story about Spacey playing "naked butt bongos" with some male friends in Croatia in 2008 will hopefully light a fire under Mr. Spacey's bum, but in the end, it's ultimately his choice to disclose his sexuality. For the life of me I will never understand famous and influential people's fear over this. The incredible conversations and challenges they would offer people by coming out far outweighs the potential risks in my book, but I can't possibly hope to get inside the head of a famous person.
