I never thought I would be somewhat of a gay icon.

I've become this sort of icon for the gay community. I don't like the position.

I am a huge fan of gays. They love me, and I love them. They think of me as sort of a gay icon.

I'm not homophobic.

Am I a homophobe? Look, I work in show business. I am awash in gay people, as colleagues and as friends.

I'm not a gay rights activist.

I am a proud member of the LGBT community and could never bear the idea that someone could say I was closeted.

I am not homophobic - in no way, shape or form.

I was homophobic because I obviously didn't know that I was gay.

I never said I was gay, because I don't think anyone is.
