Matthew Morrison not 'Glee'-ful about Elle interview
If fans of Matthew Morrison were taken aback by a December Elle interview that seemed to obsess on the straight actor's sexual orientation, they couldn't have been more thrown than Morrison himself.The interview duly noted the "Glee" star's assertion that "I'm not gay," but the reporter went on to say, "I had indeed read in various places that you're straight, but in light of the circumstantial evidence, I wasn't sure."
The questions put Morrison, a Broadway veteran who grew up singing and dancing, in the uncomfortable position of explaining that he wasn't "insulted or angry" about people assuming he is gay.
"That was, like, the worst interview I've ever done, and it kind of turned me off from doing interviews completely, because that guy was such a d**k," Morrison reveals to Zap2it. "It just turned into like a verbal sparring match and I was trying to be polite to him, but just right off the bat he came out with all these crazy accusations and stuff. So I was like, 'Ok, buddy... .' I was completely caught off-guard."

"circumstantial evidence" - meaning any guy who can dance and sing and is on broadway must be gay? This interviewer does seem like a d**k!
And even if he were gay, who the f cares. He's hot! Both boys and girls would love him to play on their team.
I'm so glad Matt felt the same way we did.
You're right Matt, he was a ****.
I'm with the other commenter who said 'who cares?'
It has nothing to do with anything.
I mean if we're coming from the point of view of just wanting to know more about your favorite actor then okay...but he gave his answer. It's not investigative reporting here. Breaking news: Matt Morrison is or is not gay!
Who cares. He answered, leave him alone.
What's with ignorant media and journalist? does everything have to be so mean and crass and downright nasty. What is this teaching the kids who grow up with this as entertainment?
I had never even thought that Matthew might be gay! And whether he is or not...wtf difference does it matter? Matthew - if you are reading this, you are the man of my dreams!
I love Matthew for his talents, don't care if he is gay or not. The reporter was kinda rude.
