I mean, technically he didn't say he was gay in his article, the reporter did. But that doesn't mean he's insecure or ashamed. Colton has always struck me as someone who doesn't want to be the voice of gays, or stereotyped, or seen as anything less than your typical male hollywood lead.
But i respect that other guy more, because he's outspoken and honest. Reckless, but honest.
He is going to be looking for him.
