[Blind Gossip] At a post-Emmys party, these two industry types were talking about a winning project and one of the actors in that project.
They were talking about how surprised they were that [Actor] was so vocal about his girlfriend. One of them said that she thought he would not even mention her because she is a beard. The other one said, “No, it’s actually smart of him. It’s his way of doubling down on straightness!” They both agreed he would get more work that way.
Sounds like our actor won’t be kicking down the closet door any time soon.

Normally I have a live and let live attitude about closeted actors. But something about the whole Glee/Ryan Murphy closeted actors sitch (Matthew Morrison, Darren Criss, Diana Agron, Chord Overstreet etc) just irks me!
yo1774 says
I agree. Ryan gets a lot of praise for cast gay actors but he clearly has a preference for the closeted ones.
I get that being gay in Hollywood makes things more difficult (because they are a bunch of hypocrites with two faces) and the truth is Ryan and others (like Greg Berlanti) generally give job to a good bunch of gay actors, but most of them are closeted (or were closeted during the show, like Charlie Carver and Colton Haynes on TW) and the main character generally goes to a straight one

Actor: Darren Criss, who won the Emmy as Best Actor in a Limited Series
smittenkitten says
Sounds like Darren and it hurts my heart. Honey, your most notable and high profile roles have been playing gay men and a transgendered woman. The world is changing. The more you double down now, the harder it’ll be to come out in the future. I hope to god he doesn’t actually marry that girl.
amagod121 says
Probably the Jonas brother who is getting married very soon.
Grade: Z for “Zip It,” as it sounds like they did enough proselytizing for a thousand years!

It’s Darren Criss. I didn’t even know he had a girlfriend until he proposed 😐
I haven’t watched the Emmys since forever ago. I only read the list of winners and get outraged when I don’t see my favorite shows winning. It would be worse if I actually watched it.

Darren Criss, no doubt ?

Darren Criss received Emmy and spoke of his ‘GF’

I read that Darren Cross won an Emmy, so this must be about him.

Actor. Matthew Rhys

He’s married to Keri Russell
Mia444 says
Don’t know who this is, but mentioning a beard TOO often is a rookie move. It makes the savvy among us all the more suspicious. One huge movie star (hint: Huge JAckman) does this all the time; it’s ridiculous how often he’ll work his wife into non-relevant comments.
boyjack4 says
Darren Cross
He should just come oit
ninanicole says
If this is Darren Criss, which I’m sure it is, why is it surprising? They’ve been together for a long time and they are engaged, beard or not.

It was meh. Fred and Maya was painful.
OharaBanana says
I thought it was common knowledge that Darren Criss is gay. Didn’t expect a lot of people to say that this BI is about him.
chickiepops says
Darren Criss is still trying to play it straight???
not buying it says
I am doubling down with Darren Criss. That man needs to just come out already. I think his fans would respect him more.
Grade D for dull
yashenny says
I had no idea Darren Criss was still in the closet.
