Kudos to Matthew Bomer



Many may cheer when yet another former boy band member hits the cover of People Magazine with 'Yes, I am Gay' as the headline. I cheer when anyone, celebrities or not, simply live their lives and quietly state their truths. No actor Matthew Bomer did not really scream anything yesterday on The Today show yet his statement was oh so powerful. Take heed Meredith Baxter.

What did he say?

Hey Marlen,

Unlike Ricky Martin and Neil Patrick, Bomer shared he has 3 children. Did not explain how or with whom. It was not so much what he said but how, he was nervous and you could tell he knew it could be a story.

until he says the words, 'I AM GAY...' he's a coward/closet case in my opinion!!! He talked about having three kids- that he gets back to see as often as he can- a straight actor would have acknowledged a wife who was taking care of them on a regular basis- because he's with a powerful publicist, everyone knows not to ask him the million dollar question....any straight guy on the today show wearing a wedding ring would be asked about his spouse- especially one who just mentioned 3 kids.

I hear your point but in 2011 there should not be a need for anyone to 'come out' Coward is so far from how I view it.

I'm with Tye -lay off the "coming out coward" crap! Who cares?!? He has a family & I imagine he is an amazing father! Does it matter that he has to 'say' "I'm gay"??? Really?

It's HIS life. If HE is happy, then who gives a shiny hole what anyone else says or thinks!

Maybe I'm missing something, but if you're going to blast someone for not saying they are gay, shouldn't you at least post your name and not do it anonymously?
