Matthew Morrison, who plays choir
director Will Schuester on the Fox musical-comedy Glee, says
that he doesn't care if people think he's gay.
The 34-year-old Morrison, who is
currently promoting his sophomore studio album Where It All Began,
was asked by The
Huffington Post whether rumors about his sexuality upset him.
“I know my own truth,” Morrison
said. “I'm in a great relationship with a woman. Maybe before it
used to bother me. Then I was like, 'This is so stupid that this
bothers me. Some of my best friends in the world are gay, and if
this is bothering me, then that means I have an issue with that.'
Once I figured that out for myself, I thought, 'I don't care what
anyone thinks about me.' That's why I think I've become an ally for
the gay and lesbian community. I just got [an Ally for Equality
Award] the other day in Atlanta. I've very proud of my role in the
community. So say what you will.”
Morrison is currently dating Rene
Puente.
