Taylor Lautner is massively not gay

GAYS! Sadly for you, it appears that Taylor Lautner is not down with the Wang Clan, despite the “out and proud” cover of People magazine which circulated around various social networking sites over Christmas.

You see, sadly for those of us who like more gays in the world (or at least the whispered mutterings that accompany such news), the cover has been outed itself as a raging fake.

The cover itself said: “Out and Proud: Tired of rumors, the Twilight star opened up about his decision to finally come out.” You can see it here for yourself.

People magazine had to come along and spoil the fun by setting the record straight, saying it’s “100 percent fake.” People spokeswoman Julie Farin told Reuters, “This began as a ridiculous Twitter joke that went viral.” Even Lautner, star of the Twilight films, himself spoke about it, tweeting: “So false!!! Don’t believe everything. Rumours = Lies.”

He’s not talking about Fleetwood Mac LPs.

The cover looked so real that it tricked a lot of people, including Def Jam co-founder Russell Simmons, who congratulated Lautner on Twitter. Alas, when he realised he’d been had, he wrote: “Disappointed that people would joke about someone coming out about their sexuality. Let Taylor Lautner be whoever he wants to be.”

So, there you go. Someone’s sexuality isn’t what everyone thought it was. Unless it is and he had his parade rained on by a leak.
