Obviously Doogie Howser is one, who are the other ones?

- Danny Pintauro and his musky hole

Tina Cole

Kathy Garver

Ann Jillian

The original Woim

Patty Duke's brother on her show.

Shawn Pyfrom, apparently.

David Henrie

Should just be child actors of any note, not completely obscure ones.

We didn't grow up with Heather Matarazzo, but she was a child actress of note, starring in Welcome To The Dollhouse, and continuing to get work in movies and on tv to this day.

Her Dollhouse character was a target of bullying, often being accused of being gay, and Heather says, while filming the movie, she suddenly realized what they were saying about her character was true about her.

Geri Jewell, briefly a successful stand-up comic, and then briefly a Facts Of Life cast member.

Ricky Ulman from Disney's "phil of the future"

Johnny Whittaker (from "Family Affair" and some Disney movies) allegedly.

One of the twins who played Tabitha on "Bewitched"

David Henrie? Oh, that would be so sweet. Now if only the ass would strop growing.

Wesley Eure was in his early twenties when he did Land of the Lost, but his character was younger than he was and it was a show aimed strictly at kids.

Sheila James, daughter on "The Stu Erwin" show in the fifties, became California state rep, under real name Kuehl.

Johnny Crawford from "The Rifleman." Married in 1995 at 49. No kids yet.

You are being facetious with most of your list, are you not, R5? Ann Jillian? Kathy "Cissy" Garver, for goodness' sake?

um r23 some of these actors are controversial at least in being Gay but great list for gossip though

Nicolas Hoult is NOT a fag, and I'm the dame who can prove it!

What ever happened to Omri Katz?

[quote]Geri Jewell, briefly a successful stand-up comic, and then briefly a Facts Of Life cast member.

Also know for her time as Ginger Spice.

Most of r23's list is wishful thinking.

Two more are Roddy McDowall and Tommy Kirk who starred in and played, among other things, the older brother in Disney's Old Yeller.

If you're talking about Geri Jewell, I think you mean "Jerk Seasoning" R32.

I hope Ricky Ulman is actually gay. He's a cutie.

I'm going to need stories on Lucas Black, David Gallagher, Freddie Highmore(!) and Paul Dano.

Omri Katz retired from films. He's a hairdresser now. Not bad looking, but probably hideous by DL standards.

Was Tina Cole ever a child actress? Someone should start a thread on her. She was the one straight women gay men would turn straight for.

She was MUCH better than the clunky old Polly Chip married and don't get me started on Doodie and the replacement from Petticoat Junction.

Hey there's a thought do one thread on the girls from My Three Sons and one thread on The Ladies of Petticoat Junction.

The little girl and the brother's best friend (Anthony Rapp) from Adventures in Babysitting are both out and I definitely grew up with that movie since my sister watched it a million times.

Besides Jack Wrangler,Have any former child stars posed nude or done porn?

R43: Dana Plato and Scott Schwartz.

What's potentially "controversial" is that it feeds into the stereotype that boys with overbearing, pushy, and in this case stage mothers are more likely to be gay.

So does "nurture" factor in at all or what?

Isn't Jamie Bell married to Evan Rachel Wood? She doesn't seem like someone who would beard.

"What's potentially "controversial" is that it feeds into the stereotype that boys with overbearing, pushy, and in this case stage mothers are more likely to be gay."

I don't think child actors are any more likely to be gay than actors who started their careers as adults. And not all kid actors have pushy stage moms - some have pushy STAGE dads.

I thought ERW was the biggest little dyke in Hollywood, R51. I could swear I read about her coming out somewhere recently. Aaaah, it must have been here, where no one is straight.

Evan rachel wood is openly bisexual

[quote] thought ERW was the biggest little dyke in Hollywood, [R51]. I could swear I read about her coming out somewhere recently. Aaaah, it must have been here, where no one is straight.

Evan Rachel Wood and Anna Paquin have both come out as bisexuals.

The Who's the Boss kid owns this thread. You could tell he was gay from the very first show when he was only about 6 years old, at least I could.

What about that "I see dead people" kid?

It's strange to me that I can think of tons of "former child actress" lesbians (many named in this thread), and few just plain "actress" lesbians.

Glenn Scarpelli from One Day at a Time.

Canadian Adamo Ruggiero from Degrassi.

I want to talk about how ugly Heather Matarrazzo is. and I've also seen pictures of her cuddled in her lovers bosom that looked like long duck dong and marlene from 16 candles. not a cool look.

I thought for sure Mackenzie Astin was a gay boy on Facts of Life, but maybe I was wrong cause he's married to a female.

Mackenzie Astin's brother Sean has had a nice big fat ass since at least that movie 'Toy Soldiers' lol. There's no way that hasn't been used.

From the UK, Aaron Renfree from S Club Juniors.

Helen Hunt was closeted...between my thighs.

Johnny Crawford does big band music, which seems awfully gay, but also spent a lot of time at the Playboy mansion in his younger days. According to Wiki, he also encouraged the career of the dreadful Victoria Jackson.

Ellen Page.

Can't believe it took 48 posts before Jodie Foster was mentioned by R49.

[You do realize that this is a troll, right? You might want to stop talking to it.]

R32 aren't you being just as "wishful"?

r73, that was a pretty sad attempt at trolling

[quote]Homosexual is caused...

by bad grammar.

they guy who player erection on growing pains

How soon we forget- Tinky Winky.

Corey Haim, Gods rest the poor man.

He was considered straight as a teen but he behaved more or less openly bi as an adult. No-one liked talking about it because of the tragic miserable fact of his sexual history and the fact that he never had a publicly-acknowledged boyfriend, but he did sleep with and date men (pl.) as well as women.

Adric? Or however it was spelled, on Doctor Who

^Aileen Quinn, really? I always figured Rosanne Sorrentino (Pepper in the movie, and Annie herself for the 3rd National Tour) for the babydyke in the 1982 movie version of ANNIE. Good lord, was she butch and vicious. Must be the Long Island attitude oozing out, like with Rosie O.

"AH, go blow it out ya wazoo."

Astin is bisexual, R66, he's talked about being attracted to men before.

Nicolas Hoult might be bi but there is no way he is gay. Jennifer Lawrence definitely loves dick and there is no way should would beard.

R83, Rosie Sorrentino is now a teacher and an administrator on Long Island.

Didn’t someone on DL several years ago say they were cruised by Nick Stahl on Sunset?

Nick is best known for ‘edgy’ teen movies of the 90s like BULLY & DISTURBING BEHAVIOUR, but he was a child actor before that. He did a couple of Disney Westerns, and MAN WITHOUT A FACE with Gibson.

R80 I told this story here before but during a Toronto comic/horror convention he signed a poster for me. His gaydar was great and immediately picked up on my gushing. He saw me outside as he was smoking and started chatting me up. Eventually he said I could go back to his hotel and fuck him for $1500. I declined. Later he saw me with my BF and he again started getting friendly and said we could tag team him for $1500, then lowered his price to $1000 then said we could both cum in his ass if we wanted to. When we said no he asked where he could score some Tina cheap.

Drake Bell, who played the kid who told Tom Cruise to fuck off in JERRY MAGUIRE, is bi or so I heard.

He doesn't like talking about it, though. And he spends all his time trying to score HS girls on SM, so fuck him.

R91, he also has a large penis.

Isn’t one of those Sprouse twins gay, and the other one bi? I can’t tell them apart.

Alison Arngrim Kirk Cameron (well, I think he is deeply closeted)

[quote] William Kirby Cullen

Really? I thought he dropped off the earth long ago. I googled him and only found a few pictures from the One Day At A Time era.

Sheila Kuehl aka Sheila James is ancient history from the 1950s. She played obvious bull dyke Zelda Gilroy on The Many Loves of Dobie Gillis. She has been an openly gay California politician since the mid 1990s.

^^ even before that, she played the younger daughter on the Stu Erwin Show, which must be from the very early 50s, or maybe even late 40s. She was really adorable as a little kid.

[quote]Besides Jack Wrangler,Have any former child stars posed nude or done porn?

When was Jack Wrangler ever a child star?

Hmm. Here are a few movies he might have made if that were true:

Lassie Cum Home.

Cloudy With a Chance of Balls.

Hairy Pooter.

Willy Wonka and the Hershey Highway.

The "Leggo!" Movie.

The Jizzard of Oz.

A-Lad-In.

Peter Peen.

The Loin King.

Honey, I Fucked the Kids.

Pete's Drag Queen.

Allison Arngrim isn't gay

R101, she’s not? Iguess she’s just a gay icon and ally.

My apologies (not that there’s anything wrong with it).

The second oldest kid in Malcolm in the Middle

The kid in Modern Family

Ana’s son in Ugly Betty

[quote]Isn't Jamie Bell married to Evan Rachel Wood? She doesn't seem like someone who would beard.

He was married to her, last year Jamie married Kate Mara, actress and sister of Rooney Mara. He's only 5'7"!

Michael Cera is gay and closeted.

The late Brad Renfro was gay and deep in the closet.

Corey Haim was bi according to Corey Feldman. While anything Feldman says is usually suspect, I think he is telling the truth on this one.

Carnivàle is what I best remember Nick Stahl from.

Jamie Bell, star of "He puts his penis in my mouth and moves it rhythmically back and forth until white stuff comes out"?

R99 He acted on a religious TV series with Miss Eleanor Powell.

Mark Indelicato, who played the younger brother on "Ugly Betty".

R116, he played Betty’s nephew.

Mara Wilson has said she's bi, I think.

[quote]Will Estes

The first thing I saw him in was American Dreams. What was he a child actor in?

No mention of the old DL rumour about the male kid from the Nanny and the guy who played Reese on Malcolm in the middle? You bitches are slipping!

Thank you, R120. I would not have known of IMDB were it not for your generous sharing.

What I wonder remains the same. Will Estes has a shitload of credits prior to American Dreams. Is there a program for which he is particularly well known?

R111 he sure it. And that is a tacky & disrespectful attitude toward your fine community.

R121 my all-time favorite episode of MALCOLM IN THE MIDDLE is the 4th episode of the last season, where Jessica tricks Malcolm & Reese into thinking the other brother is in the closet. The funny part is that against all expectation both boys (normally a bullying delinquent & a superior misanthrope who both make frequent "fag" comments) are totally supportive and try to understand it as well as help the other 'come out'. Once the joke is revealed and they discover the truth, the start of their revenge plot involves Reese giving Malcolm a hickey.

Berfield & Muniz had some of the best chemistry on that show, only slightly behind Muniz & Krasinsky.

That is a funny one, r125 (although it wasn't from the final season.) I remember back at the time insisting Berfield had to be gay and all my friends said no way, it was Muniz who pinged. I don't think Berfield ever officially came out but Muniz is evidently straight.

How can you mention Lisa Whelchel and not Nancy McKeon?

Brice Beckham from Mr Belvedere

Rashaad Petterson and the guy who played Mickey from Kids Inc.

Will Estes is currently one of the 'stars' of BLUE BLOODS, a 'hit' show on CBS.

r128 Is Brice Beckham out? I never heard rumors about him. More please.

Heather Matarazzo and Ellen Page are gay now.

But they're not household names and their shows are not exactly heartwarming standards.

Except in my house.

R121/R126 in later seasons of MITM there were a ton of Easter egg jokes pointing to Reese’s homosexuality, so Berfield was probably comfortably Out to cast/crew.

Writers involved Malcolm in a few of these ‘Reese might be gay’ plots too which made the whole thing come across weird, but then that was the tone of the show.

Tina Cole comes from royalty.

Jamie Bell is not gay. He was also married to Rachel Wood and she’s bi not gay.

R6 We don't hear much about Shawn Pyfrom anymore, although he does guest appearances on TV shows now and again. You certainly don't hear anything about him being gay aside from the fact he played a gay character on "Desperate Housewives."

Any info on Miko Hughes, who had the famous "boys have a penis, girls have a vagine" line from Kindergarten Cop. He's been in a million other things too like Pet Cemetery and The New Nightmare.

Jamie Bell is now married to Kate Mara (House of Cards subway casualty). I thought I remember it being said that both Jamie and Evan Rachel Wood are bisexual. Kate Mara seems like she could fit in that club too. I'd loooooove to take a ride with grown up Billy Elliott.

r134

I bet Lani O'Grady was on the set everyday waiting outside her dressing room..

Erik Per Sullivan is the gayest child since Danny Pintauro.

Buddy Handleson from Nik came out last year

The gay kid from School of Rock, Brian Falduto
