1. I'll bite!, Merv Griffin?
I would say impossible. I never could imagine that he found work as a big band singer. On second thought, how the hell could he have ever become a star without resorting to some form of blackmail?

2. Vincent Price? ALLEGEDLY?
Be serious. The man was a total flaming queen!

Little Richard - under 50%??? Have these people SEEN LR lately?

Tab Hunter - admittedly gay - people uninformed.

Andrew Sullivan - why is there even a question here? That's why he's a commentator. Or Common Tator.

4. Sherlock Holmes? He's fictional.
If it wasn't written in the stories, it didn't happen. Why would they put a fictional character on the list?

George Clooney is SO not gay.

I thought Anderson Cooper and Rex Reed were out?

5. they are...
which is strange because George Clooney is more "gay" than Anderson Cooper...methinks some hetero males hijacked this poll because they were jealous of Clooney

6. LOL - oh, quite right. I don't think all the names on the list are gay.
But I know when I'm right...
