Yep....He's Gay! Grey's Anatomy Star Comes Out

Thursday October 19, 2006
What's that strange sound you hear? It's the sound of millions of hearts breaking all over the world. Grey's Anatomy most loveable doctor has admitted he is indeed gay. In an interview with People Magazine, T.R. Knight puts any and all rumors to rest concerning his sexuality stating, "I hope the fact that I'm gay isn't the most interesting part of me." Whether or not there is a significant other is unknown. Will Grey's Anatomy eventually make Knight's alter ego Dr. George O'Malley gay? It's doubtful, but in TV land, one never knows.

I don’t see why the fact you’re gay should change opinions of your acting. You know you are a good actor when people recognize you as the character you are playing. When I went to this page I spotted your picture first. Then
I read the article. When I saw the picture of Dr. George O’Malley, I didn’t know he was played by T.R.Knight.I like Dr.George,I like his ethics, so far.He really stands out, with his everyday problems every one shares, even if you aren’t a Dr.
Thank you for sticking with it and being Dr.George.

What is the hype about being gay? I admire the entertainers that do. I am gay and to see gossip about the stars, are they gay or not. IT IS THEIR BUSINESS.. Take a look at Ellen , Rosie, Queer as Folk. If you notice most of the new shows have at least one gay character and I say good for them. It could be interesting if Dr. O’Malley and Dr, Mc Dreamy had a fantast bit. Let him come out and show we are everywhere..
