In the January 2014 issue of Esquire U.K., 52-year-old Hollywood heartthrob George Clooney addresses accusations that he’s a closeted homosexual. It all started, he told the magazine, when he responded to a headline that read, “George Clooney is Gay-Gay-Gay.” His response? “I’m gay-gay, the third one’s pushing it.”
Fire was added to the speculation in 2011, when ex-girlfriend Elisabetta Canalis told People that she and Clooney had a “father-daughter” relationship, saying that their relationship ended because of their “personal needs.” Hmmm …
In the Esquire interview, he said “[I’m] not going [to disallow it], because that’s planar out insulting to the gay community.” The statement mirrored a similar one he gave to The Advocate last year:
“I think it’s funny, but the last thing you’ll ever look me do is leap up and down, saying, ‘These are lies!'” he said. “That would be unfair and unkind to my good friends in the gay community. I’m not going to enable anyone make it look like being gay is a bad thing. My private life is
Do gay people believe George Clooney is gay (and beards in 2016)

First, just to get it out there, I’m very pro-LGBTQ rights, and anyone should be free to be what they crave sexually so drawn-out as it doesn’t hurt someone else.
Second, I care about who is queer only as a matter of curiosity; e.g., if people say someone is gay, I might wonder, Oh, is that really true?
So… it would never have crossed my mind that Clooney is gay. I hadn’t thought much about it. But my gay Pilates teacher not only thinks so but was telling the whole class his theory about how he is same-sex attracted and the studio has him wedding beards and whatnot. He was quite insistent that it was so! I also asked my gay friend on FB with whom I talk just about every evening what he consideration, and he agreed that Clooney was gay, though he couldn’t cite an exact reason.
I also happened upon a theory that Jay Z is male lover and Bey is his beard. I was just looking up his status as a rapper (good or bad), and this theory was all over the place.
So act are beards really still a thing in 2016?

George Clooney Totally Cool With Queer Rumors: "Who Does it Hurt?"

So what did he have to say?
"My private life is intimate, and I'm very happy in it," he told the mag. "Who does it hurt if someone thinks I'm gay? I'll be long dead and there will still be people who say I was gay. I don't give a s--t."
He stresses, though, that it's important he remains sensitive to how he addresses the speculation.
"I think it's funny, but the last thing you'll ever see me execute is jump up and down, saying, 'These are lies!' That would be unfair and unkind to my good friends in the gay community. I'm not going to let anyone build it seem like being queer is a bad thing.&quo
