Bravo's well known and much loved Watch What's Happening Live! host, Andy Cohen, reportedly claims to be sick and tired of Kevin Spacey ostensibly living a lie in Hollywood the for more than 20-years. According to the latest gossip news updates, the openly gay television producer/personality virtually outs the House of Card's President in his new mini-memoir, The Andy Cohen Diaries: A Deep Look at a Shallow Year. Apparently, Cohen recalls a dinner with How I Met Your Mother actor, Neil Patrick Harris, at which the caddie Cathy's railed against the Call of Duty star's decision to keep his homosexuality a secret.
Word has it that Andy Cohen has devoted a few pages in his latest book, The Andy Cohen Diaries: A Deep Look at a Shallow Year, to once again out Hollywood icon Kevin Spacey as a closeted homosexual.
In the excerpts from the book published in In Touch Weekly's December 8, issue, Cohen goes over a particularly revelatory dinner conversation he had with Neil Patrick Harris, whereat Spacey's sexuality was the singular subject:
"NPH, and I talked a lot about gay stuff, including debating Kevin Spacey; I still get enraged when I think about him talking about being in love with that woman on 60 Minutes."
Cohen goes on the recall when sitting behind Spacey at the US Open that Kevin didn't seem like he was trying to fool anyone -- at least not successfully:
"[He had] a face full of makeup and three male companions who were definitely not raising questions."
In truth, this is far from the first time that Spacey has had to deal with reportedly being outed by someone looking for attention.
The first time it was openly and officially alleged that Kevin Spacey was secretly gay was in Esquire's 1997 story entitled: Kevin Spacey Has a Secret.
While the House of Card's actor didn't deny of confirm the allegations at the time, he did liken the article to the Communist witch-hunts of a bygone era (via E! News):
"Esquire has made it abundantly clear that they have now joined the ranks of distasteful journalism, and this mean-spirited, homophobic, offensive article proves that the legacy of Joseph McCarthy is alive and well."
In more recent and enlightened years it has been gay men, like Andy Cohen, sometimes calling for Spacey to make his sexuality public in order to lend support and legitimacy to the gay struggle for full acceptance and equality under the law.
When asked way back in 2010 by Willa Paskin why, "gay men have always proudly claimed you as a member of our tribe, and yet you don't proudly claim us back," Spacey didn't shy away from the question as he asserted his right to separate the personal from the political (via Vulture):
"Look, I might have lived in England...but I'm still an American citizen and I have not given up my right to privacy.
"I just don't buy into that the personal can be political. I just think that's horsesh-t.
"No one's personal life is in the public interest. It's gossip, bottom line."
Spacey also calmly answered the accusation that by not openly talking about his homosexuality, he was living a lie:
"It's just a line I've never crossed and never will...[but] I don't live a lie.
"You have to understand that people who choose not to discuss their personal lives are not living a lie.
"That is a presumption that people jump to."
What do you think? If Kevin Spacey is attracted to men instead of women, does he owe it to the gay community to make that public knowledge?
Or should Andy Cohen just mind her own business and let Kevin Spacey keep his open-secret for as long as he wants?
