Jack Falahee comes out as straight.

He went and partied at the gay clubs of Madrid and then deleted all references to it on his social media. A spanish news source said they saw him dancing with a guy at a gay club.

"Not gay" does not equal "straight."

What R3 said, maybe he's bi?

Are you accusing him of MINCING his words?

No r6, we are accusing him of sucking dick.

Coward always pretend to be be biggest activist . But don't worry 6 years from now when his career will be too totally over then he will come out to stay relevant . Then HRC will give this weasel bravery award and visiblty award just like they did do to Clton gay hanyes.

But then Jack has never bullied gay media or gay blogs through his lawyers like Colto did

He also doesn't calls people poisonous just because they think he is gay (colto did)

Yall are way too invested in other peoples' identity

R9 = str8-worshiping "bro troll"

As others have mentioned OP definitely created his own editorialized title. Jack never calls himself straight in that note.

He's sexually fluid, but prefers girls...

Butch Gays of notoriety like himself should set and example for Men who just so happen to be masculine......except they're gay. Someone (His publicist) is in his ear most likely.....just pushing him half way back into the closet. Lipstick lesbians (at least the ones I've come across) struggle at first with coming out but handle their sexuality more confidently then butchy gay men. No one is asking these guys to do anything masculine at all actually, but they feel as though they have to live up to the Image or idea of what a "Man" is suppose to be. Little do they know.....The majority of these soo called Heterosexual Macho Men are being taken care of by their girlfriends and wives (as if these women are Mommy Substitues) I'm only making these claims because I'm friends with straight males and women as well. I get and see both sides of society and what'a really going on.......at least in Los Angeles?

I believe him. He was an uber driver before he got Murder so for god sakes, there would've been concrete evidence. Pictures of him in gay bars, ex boyfriends, grindr screenshots. Millennial non-famous gay men leave a digital trail of homosexuality.

And his avoidance never rang the same as Colton and Garrett's.

It's weird you bring up Garrett, since ignoring the fact that Garrett is pretty flaming, there is more of this digital evidence that Jack is gay. Did you even look at the thread linked in r1?

Not saying going to gay bars makes you gay, but your response was odd since Jack was indeed hitting up gay bars.

Know your audience. Jack is on a freakin' ABC show. At least now he has the straights in the Trump era on his side. Smart publicist.

If I'm not mistaken, all of Jack's appearances at gay events/bars have come AFTER the show. That can easily be explained by him being supportive, reaching out to the community, playing the game.

I have never seen any pre-fame evidence of Jack being gay.

Honey, I feel for him. They be trying to call me gay, too.

I'll need to examine his mussy before I vote.

Which is all fair r18. I'm just saying as far as I know the only "digital evidence" of Garrett being gay is Noah slyly calling him out in his interview.

No gay bar sightings, no grindr screenshots or any of these things you listed that should supposedly exist for closeted gay guys. Just pointing out I don't think your argument holds up.

I'm just happy he did it to stop the gay baiting nonsense so many young stars try to pull.

If he's straight then will he be more likely to do nude scenes?

Falahee has actually spoken many times about how much he hates doing nude scenes r23. Though he is also one of those actors that can't even handle watching himself on camera, he doesn't actually watch HTGAWM.

I like Jack. He's a good egg. But every celebrity's public image is fake in some way.

I don't watch HTGAWM because the writing is atrocious [R24].

I think the key difference between Jack and Garrett is age. Garrett started getting attention when he was in his teens. Jack didn't get any kind of fame until 24-25. Garrett had people telling him how to present himself. Jack was driving for Uber. If you reversed the age that each became a "star", even a Disney star, and I think the gay trail on Garrett would be considerable. Not that his gayness can't be seen from space.

Jack is so damned hot. I would be all over that in an instant, if he'd let me.

I think it's also cute that he was a chubby kid. They seem to be more empathetic towards gays, since they were probably also bullied as children.

Jerry O'Connell is a prime example.

I hate the fact that he was running around the city where I live, this Summer while filming Mercy Street, a few blocks from my house, and I never ran into him....dammit, I need to get out more often.

How disappointing. I immediately unfollowed him on my DL investigation accounts.

I used to call guys like him tragically straight; hasn't touched a vag in years, but squeals at the sight of cock.

He shaves his armpits, he's not straight.

The best way to come out as straight is to have a gf/wife pop out sone babies for you. Don't just talk the talk, you got to walk the walk.

First Trump, now this 😢

Fuck him! It has been a terrible week for the Gays.

I honestly don't get his post at all.

"The election of Trump was horrible, Mike Pence is horrible on gay rights. This has been such terrible news that I can no longer hide the fact that I am straight"...?!

Of course I never got the game he was playing anyway. I tried to keep my sexual orientation a secret to dismantle the closet?! No. What would this even mean? Straight actors are never pressured to hide the fact that they are straight. Only gay actors are.

I honestly don't understand anything about this.

Why do people keep making this stupid argument about not seeing pictures of closeted celebrities in gay clubs. Colton Haynes, Neil Patrick Harris, Ricky Martin and many other out celebrities have never been photographed in gay clubs and yet they are still gay.

And going to gay clubs doesn't mean you are gay, unless you're making out with dudes

The gay friend that jack is talking about is Augustine Hargrave. I don't know Jack but we have 3 or 4 mutual friends and Augustine is one of those. And yes, Jack is straight and a very humble guy. Saw him and his equally hot brother once at a party.

I'd assumed that Jack might have been dating Augustine Hargrave, as they were housemates (perhaps with a third person) and because Augustine is kind of hot (and he pings). (Jack recently moved into a new place; don't know if Augustine went with him). Jack also has close female friends which straight guys don't often have.

But I believe him that he's not gay; among other things his note doesn't read like something a PR person cobbled together. I can also imagine that Jack took enough gender studies in college to have ideas about dismantling the closet by not being public about his heterosexuality.

Augustine is an attractive guy. He also oddly favors Jack, though he has a body Jack wishes he had.

Pretty lame to try to use the election to stomp on factual rumors that your gay. Dude needs to get better friends, but it's more likely that the friend story is fake.

I believe he's not only straight but his dating his costar who plays Makayla.

Good grief. This will probably start the trend of celebrities coming out as straight. Bradley Cooper will be next in line.

R49 quickly followed by Chace Crawford.

No. I can buy Jack FellateMe, as Dlisted cslls him, as being straight.

Chace and Bradley are gayer than... (fill in the blank).

I'm a little more okay if Connor's the one who dies in the fire.

I don't see why he felt the need to mention that he wasn't gay.

Excuse me, Miss Fayshalee!

R53 By his way of thinking, he was making some sort of statement by being ambiguous about his sexuality. After this catastrophic election, he rethought what he was doing and decided he wasn't advancing our cause by being vague or evasive.

Maybe Ronan Farrow will be next to come out as straight. He likes approximately the same number of half-naked muscle twink photos on IG that Jack does.

Wasnt there a video of him doing the mansex in Spain?

So if Hillary had won, he would have continued to play the faux gay game.

This tweet sums it up for me:

‏@samcorb

I assume Jack Falahee came out as straight because we're entering a time in which gaybaiting is dangerous, not a business model?

r60 Dangerous for the person who is gaybaiting? In other words, Falahee is distancing himself in case any gaybashers who will now be on the rampage will cross paths with him? I suspect people like that are incapable of making much of a distinction between a gay man and man who plays a gay man on TV. They just voted for Trump because they believe the phony image that TV show painted of him, after all.

[quote]I'm a little more okay if Connor's the one who dies in the fire.

You haven't been paying attention.

R15 - screenshots from Grindr and the like can very well be photoshopped and not proven...and also anyone can send pictures over Grindr as someone else, stealing pics from Instagram or Facebook, etc.

However, pics with boyfriends or in gay bars are really the only thing that could be conclusive.

it's probably frank or that newer law student who's pesky (but I like him) who is the corpse in Annalise's house - but if it's Connor then the actor has chosen a strategic time to say to Hollywood: I ain't gay; you can cast me in other parts.

Being in a gay bar is far from conclusive

r45 Now that looks like an Ape without heels.

WE ALREADY KNOW that it's not Connor. He was shown last week as alive.

"WE ALREADY KNOW that it's not Connor. He was shown last week as alive."

When Oliver asked Bonnie in the hospital, "Where's Connor!", the show jumped to a scene of Connor in bed with Oliver's pickup. But... was that a cut to the same time as everyone talking in the hospital , or was it a cut to a bit earlier in the night????? Your're sure??

If Connor could be the dead one, then I vote for R65 's "I ain't gay; you can cast me in other parts" as the subtext of the "I am a proud straight ally of the gay community" tweet/instagram message.

I'm surprised any actors speak out for gay rights. It's a thankless position.

R69, R70, thanks, I am usually pretty good at following these things with the flashbacks and time jumps, but I missed that one.

I'm just glad Oliver's alive. I thought for sure he was a goner.

Looks like it's either Frank or that new guy/law student they're always dissing.

I don't know how ANY of them get any studying done with all the angsty drama.

okay, I just re=watched; don't know how I missed Connor at the end.

First off, man, can Viola snot cry or what!?

Second, I don't think that's a flashback with Connor and Ollie's ex. Though it COULD be.

It's either Frank or the pesky law student who delivered Oliver's flowers to him who is dead.

I'll miss Frank and his abs if it's him.

[quote]Looks like it's either Frank or that new guy/law student they're always dissing.

People seem to be forgetting about Nate. He seems like the most likely one to me.

[quote]Second, I don't think that's a flashback with Connor and Ollie's ex. Though it COULD be.

It's most certainly not a flashback given how it's presented on the show. Conner is sleeping with the guy Oliver is interested in as payback for Oliver calling him broken.

Even if he was telling the truth about being straight (though he isn't), this is so insulting and patronizing. It's like those dudebros saying that they're "so gay" for this or that female actress.

Yeah, I agree, R75, the only thing that makes me think it was Connor (and this was before I re-watched last week's show, must have dozed off and not seen Connor at end) was that Jack came out as straight and I thought perfect timing to tell Hollywood he ain't gay.

So I'm probably wrong.

Hell, I was about Hillary and Trump.

He's not "fluid". He doesn't "prefer girls".

[quote]182. ENTERTAINMENT LAWYER 11/16 **#1**

As soon as this B+ mostly television actor thinks he is about to be thrown out of the closet, he has his PR team send out something to the Kneepadiest tabloids and websites with some crap statement and they dutifully print it even though they know it isn’t true. [italic]Jack Falahee ("How To Get Away With Murder") [/italic]

"Second, I don't think that's a flashback with Connor and Ollie's ex. Though it COULD be."

I think it could be that if the show wanted to fuck with the audience, and pull a "We killed Glenn" type of Walking Dead thing Possibly it would prove that the show would go there and kill a major beloved character, and be a season finale that everyone would gasp about.

But it is just a standard network show, do I guess they wouldn't do that.

[quote]As soon as this B+ mostly television actor thinks he is about to be thrown out of the closet

It would be a stretch to call him "B+." Has he ever done anything of note other than HTGAWM?

The guy who plays Oliver must be a DLer. He is pissed about the election, thankfully he is out and proud.

what is a 'Kneepadiest' tabloid?

The Kneepadiest Tabloids are those who have no problems getting on their knees and figuratively sucking the dick of the subject of the article, just to gain and or maintain access to said subject. But you inferred that already, R85.

Personally, I love him, but God hates his faggy ass.

Miss Falahee keeps posting photos of her fat adolescent ass on her IG.

What's her damage?

Somehow his past fatness will endear him to the Bros.

Speaking of Conrad, he revived his youtube channel

I like Conrad's voice. Kind of reminds me of Jeff Goldblum, only better.

I wonder if Conrad and Jackie get along behind the scenes?

I know at first they weren't especially close. Conrad would come in to do his scenes and leave as he was doing plays in New York so they didn't have a particularly close bond.

I believe him too. Didn't someone post on the main JF thread about him tweeting a pic with a girl captioned 'don't care' just after HTGAWM premiered, which he subsequently deleted? Regardless, just glad he decided to stop with the offensive gaybaiting. Concern for personal safety notwithstanding.

No, he was definitely checking and staying in "Chueca" (Spain's Castro District)and asking definitely asking people what where the good clubs at Chueca . Those tweets were accompanied with an eggplant and wink emoticon.

I lot of us saw those two tweets and we reported it to DL. There might be some screen shots floating around on the internet.

Maybe he was just experimenting and it was just not for him. Who knows?

r98 Honey, that's called gay baiting.

Interestingly, this past weekend Lipstick Alley had a thread asking if he and Aja Naomi King (Michaela) were a couple.

Wes is gone and no loss. The character has always been a drag on the show and so has the actor.

In fairness to AE, he had good moments and could only act what the writers gave him. Nonetheless, he was just very limited in this part. I think his constant effort to do an American accent hurt him. There are so many African-American actors who could probably have brought more to this role.

In any case, AE's hot-ish, an OK actor, and is gone now, never to be seen again on American TV.

Thanks for the fucking spoiler in a thread that isn't dedicated to the show R101

Yeah I don't know why r101 didn't post that in the HTGAWM thread

Spoiler alert: The show is horribly written and only Viola Davis and the gay sex make it anything close to watchable

Sorry, it was late and I was in the wrong thread.

So much for all that Foucault bullshit - I thought this guy was an uber driver before this show?

[quote]In any case, AE's hot-ish, an OK actor, and is gone now, never to be seen again on American TV.

Uh, no. The rest of the season is going to be about discovering who killed Wes, and he's going to be in LOTS of flashback scenes.

Wasn't he in Chueca? Why would he go there if he was straight?

So this good looking guy who is supposedly straight hasn’t even been seen with ONE girlfriend yet in the five years he’s been famous???

R101, I thought Alfred Enoch was a decent actor.

He was also nominated for a couple of NAACP Image Awards.

Alfie does have some acting ability -- he's the son of veteran British actor William Russell (best known to American audiences as Ian Chesterton, the first male companion on the original 'Doctor Who'. Alfie isn't a Shakespearean actor like his Dad (now 94 years old!), but he did an okay American accent, and some U.S. viewers didn't know he is British.

The fact that he is tall and handsome didn't hurt, either.

Here's his Dad:

Nobody was as bad as Rebecca. If I never see that bitch on a TV again, it'll be too soon.

Was Falahee ever seen with a girlfriend or boyfriend? Any WeHo stories maybe?

Who's Rebecca, r115? (I gave up on this show after the first half of season one.)

Wasn't Rebecca that girl that got killed at the end of season 1?

Falahee said he was working as an Uber driver before HTGAWM. If he were gay, I assume there'd be Grindr receipts or pre-fame nudes (love that big dick on Jussie Smollett)

Falahee is a very open minded straight man.

You guys start shit like this that makes them uncomfortable and regret being so open to you all.

Live and let live for chrissakes.

You don’t have to be gay to go to a gay club or bar. Some straight men like to just mingle and drink and some hot ones like to feel fawned over, something many women don’t do, but they know gay men will give them all the attention in the world. Some just get along with gay men. I know someone whose best friends are gay and he’s been that way since High School, which he went to in the 90s when gay was treated as bad. He always sided with and defended and hung out with the gay kids and from then on always preferred them as friends. He’s walked Gay Parades with his friends and all and he raises his son (he’s divorced) to treat everyone as equals etc. Even when he started getting into fights cause guys thought he was gay he never stopped being friends with them.

Another straight guy I know was very supportive when his best childhood friend came out to him, and he has gone to gay bars and clubs with him numerous times, and vice versa.

Also some go with their gay friends out of support.

R123 and awfully talentless...

I love so much, R112, pulling that classic Dionne Warwick line on this closeted hussy!

Alfie looks like the black version of his dad.

Alfie looks biracial. Which he is.

Yes, Alfie's mother is Brazilian, which is why he has dark skin, even though his father is white.

He's even taller than his Dad. The gif of William Russell I posted at R114 is from the Sir Lancelot series he did in the 1950's, prior to being cast on Doctor Who in the 1960's.

I'm fully aware that he's biracial, but he looks like a regular black guy. Someone like Daniel Sunjata looks more like your typical biracial male mixed with black and white.

Either way, he's very handsome. The show hasn't been the same since he was killed off. That was a huge mistake.

I agree that Alfie is handsome, R129. He inherited good genes from his Dad, who as you can see was also handsome at his age. And William Russell has still got good genes today. He's in his 90's and is still going to Doctor Who conventions!

Btw, Alfie is from William's 2nd marriage, why is why he's much older.

Alfie & William a few years ago:

Little Alfie with his Dad:

Alfie does not look typical black guy. He’s got a lot of color but his facial features... come on. Some of you are so color obsessed.

It has nothing to do with being color obsessed, R135. Get over it. I think he looks fully black and you don't.

If he wasn't a semi-famous actor who was just walking down the street in America, no one would think that he's "biracial" based on his looks. Maybe you're from the UK which is why you don't think he looks like a typical African American male who happens to be strikingly handsome. African Americans are a multi-generational mixed race group where many have features just like Alfie.

So maybe in the UK he doesn't look typically black to you, but to me, as an American, he does. In any case, I'm not denying his mixed race. He is.

Mixed race American guy here. Alfie is much darker than me and I am a bit surprised he has a fully white parent. But genes are funny like that. Tamera Mowry's daughter has 3 white grandparents, 1 black, and she's very black-looking. Genes are a roll of the dice and you never know what you'll land on.

No, I would know he is biracial cause of his nose and lips and face structure.

R138 That's because you have the stereotype of the black nose/lips/face structure in your mind.

Exactly, R139. There is no set of nose, lips and face structure that's exclusively "black." I know many black people with two black parents with the same nose, lips and face structure.

Anyway, let's get back to the topic of Jack Falahee "straightness," or lack thereof

Show me a black man with two black parents with Alfies nose, lips and face structure

Dude, get over it. I'm not about to go back and forth with you about this silly ass topic. I made a passing comment about Alfie's looks and you're having an aneurysm about it. This thread isn't even about Alfie.

ANYWAY... do any of you remember that one thread about Jack Falahee where some Datalounge detectives discovered that his former roommate is also his boyfriend? I can't remember the name of that thread, but it was a good read.

[quote]In any case, I'm not denying his mixed race. He is.

I'm not R135, but when has Alfie denied he is mixed race?

ENOUGH ABOUT UGLY ALFIE! This thread is about Jack! Go start an Alfie thread if you want to talk about him.

Back to Jack - it is a VERY good question why he's never been seen with a girlfriend in the years he's been famous. And don't give me that "he's private" crap because he posts on Instagram almost daily (sometimes multiple times a day).

r144 is right. Jack loves dong.

If Jack loves dong, where's the tricks or boyfriends? Garrett had evidence, Colto had evidence, Jussie had evidence, etc etc.

I'm not buying that a non-famous gay guy living in LA (as he was before the show) wouldn't leave some kind of trail.
