Anderson Cooper Reveals He’s Gay!

I never knew there was speculation about Anderson Cooper’s sexual orientation but apparently there has been. To put an end to it all the CNN anchor and daytime talk show host came out as gay.

Seriously what is up with extremely hot men being off-limits for us gals? First my latest obsession Matt Bomer and now The Coops! Maybe some things are too good to be true. These men ARE just too pretty! *sighs and snaps self back into reality*

The Coops, yes we’re calling him that now, sent a very long, intimate email to political writer of the Daily Beast, Andrew Sullivan explaining his apprehensions to come out publicly and why he waited until now.

Cooper writes, “Since I started as a reporter in war zones 20 years ago, I’ve often found myself in some very dangerous places. For my safety and the safety of those I work with, I try to blend in as much as possible, and prefer to stick to my job of telling other people’s stories, and not my own.” He continues, “Recently, however, I’ve begun to consider whether the unintended outcomes of maintaining my privacy outweigh personal and professional principle. It’s become clear to me that by remaining silent on certain aspects of my personal life for so long, I have given some the mistaken impression that I am trying to hide something — something that makes me uncomfortable, ashamed or even afraid. This is distressing because it is simply not true.”

He proudly states, “The fact is, I’m gay, always have been, always will be, and I couldn’t be any more happy, comfortable with myself and proud.”

Good for him! I say as long as you’re happy with yourself and you have people who love you nothing else matters!
