Brandon Routh: “I’m Not Gay”

This shot is an outtake from the upcoming issue of Vanity Fair. See the full set here.

Brandon Routh, in Australia for promotion of Superman Returns, told the Sydney Morning Herald that he is prepared for the onslaught of fame: “It will be different. Every day I am learning how to deal with it and make it work for me … I don’t have any secrets so it will be fine.”

And I am not (gay) as well, but people will have that discussion as much as they want – it is a topic for people to talk about.”

Actually, I wasn’t planning on talking about it, but now that you bring it up…
