Wasn't NPH on an episode of Will and Grace a few years back where he played a "cured" gay man who Jack (I think that's his name; Will and Grace's gay buddy) had a crush on?

Am I the only one who thought when they saw this "is this new to anyone?" I just assumed after seeing a few interviews and such that he was. It seemed apparent to me knowing the emcee role in Caberet.

BTW the emcee in the production he was in (the Roundabout Theatre Company) was a bit racier then the one Joel Grey played in the 50's.

Re:Emcee role in Caberet

I don't know about you, but I ALWAYS get a gay vibe from the actor playing the emcee, whether he bats for the team or not. The emcee is SUPPOSED to give of a "gay vibe."

My friend told me and my reply was, "And in other news, the Pope is Catholic." Same thing I said when Lance Bass decided to come out.

My mind completely went into the gutter when I read this. I blame the thread topic.

How stupid of me. I forgot to out Doogie Howser on the Lance Bass thread. He is so obvious. I also forgot to mention almost every constestant on You think you can Dance especially the winner and anyone over 12 that still uses the name Benji. I think Howie Mandell might be in the closet.

Well just because you play a role of a gay - or sexually ambiguous - character doesn't mean you are.

And, while the Roundabout's version may seem racier, for 1966 the Emcee was pretty edgy. Probably more so because they didn't have so much gay/bisexual culture out in the open.

And thank you, MystiCat! I was like 50s?!?

It may have been edgy then (forgive me for getting the date wrong, obviosusly I wasn't around then and I didn't look this up online before posting, I should know around here to always triple check facts before I say anything) but I was basing my opinion off the Alan Cumming version and having seen him (and spoken with him) several times I knew the part was beyond edgy, it was just plain raunchy. My best friend refers Alan C. as Sex on a Stick in this role.

Yes he did.... and now that episode looks even funnier in light of this revelation.
