We couldn't stand to watch this beautiful actor in "The Ugly Truth" but our friends over at Banana Guide have dug up a quote that has the Scottish delicacy starring in our fantasies once again.
They discovered what they claim to be a 2004 article from entertainment website MovieLine.com that contains a passage where the abtastic actor acknowledges his bisexuality.
"I talk about my sexuality, but it's always glossed over. People seem to shy away from the issue. Whenever it is discussed, its distended and exaggerated. Gerard Butler is gay. No I'm not. I don't know myself what I am so it can be bewildering to see that being plugged. I have been in relationships with women. And men. That doesn't make me gay. That doesn't make me straight. It's hard enough to go through these things in my mind without being scrutinized about it so there are times when you want to close the door and say my sexuality is my own personal business"
As much as we would like to relive "300" with this Spartan spurring us on his spear, we're not buying it. Butler, who has many fans of the homo persuasion thanks to his good looks, has only risen in profile since this interview, why hasn't anyone else dug it up before? And it just seems like the kind of thing that someone would make up for a celebrity to say. And the source makes Wikipedia look like the New York Times in comparison.
What do you think? Is Butler ready to give up his butt, or is this all just a way to get us all in a tizzy over nothing?
