I heard from a friend the other day that the wrestler "The Rock" came out on the Ellen show. They said he was in a film where the character was gay. Him and Ellen were talking about it and he came out and said he was gay...I have been searching to try and find the answer, but no luck. Can anyone tell me if this rumor is true or not?

errr. Dude, google it. If it's true, it'll be all over the place.
Methinks you have a friend who plays on your gullibility.

He may have said it in jest. Or he may have said something along those lines without ACTUALLY saying it. But he's married. I think he's just in touch with his feminine side, believe it or not. On the commentary track on Walking Tall, he is hilarious and he comments on one of his male co stars having a hot ass and then wonders if thinking a man's ass is hot makes him gay. Make of that what you will.

I think he's straight. I don't really know why, because its believable that he could go either way.

Yeah, this happened. My cousins' babysitter saw it. Too bad they never rerun it. It's kind of like when Olivia Newton John admitted she was a Lesbian on the old Tonight Show. That was a shocker! I think it was the same night that Jim Nabors & Burt Reynolds announced their wedding. Or was it David Geffen and Keanu Reeves' wedding? I wanted to go to that but I had to take Richard Gere to the hospital to get the gerbil out of his butt. While I was waiting for them to cure the human habitral who do I see but Rod Stewart getting his stomach pumped! I wish I would have grabbed the Advocate I was reading that day-- it had the article where both Jonathan Taylor Thomas AND that woman from Desparate Housewives came out.

Lies? Wishful thinking? Bitches? I vote one from column A, one from column B, etc!

Puhleez...
He was on Ellen last year to chat about that sequel to Get Shorty, where he played a gay character. He was sweet, homofriendly and clearly devoted to his wife and kids.

Yea, I saw him interviewed (not sure if it was Ellen or not) where one of his co-stars mentioned what a hot gay man he made and how IF he were gay he would go for the Rock! (I don't think it was Travolta...maybe Vaughn?)

being a fan of both wrestling and college football from way back i can say with certainty that the person now called the rock is indeed gay. he is also an alien replicant who took control of the young dwayne johnson during treatment for the 1995 back injury which ended johnson's hopes of playing in the nfl alongside his miami teammates warren sapp and ray lewis. he soon gravitated to wrestling, a venue long dominated by gay aliens: the iron sheik, rowdy roddy savage, gorgeous george. i think his first wrestling pseudonym says it all: flex kavanah. gay space aliens stol the body of dwayne johnson and have been using it to perpetuate a race of giant gay wrestlers.

i'd go on, but i see the mother ship in final approach and must make sure that my family's foil helmets are in place to escape their evil death rays.

POP CULT BOY: i enjoyed WALKING TALL okay, but not enough to research the DVD. Do you recall which co-star assets Dwayne admired? thanx.

I rented it from Blockbuster Online as I missed it in the cinema. and I don't quite recall whose ass it was. It wasn't Johnny Knoxville's, I think it may have been the bad guy who ran the casino.

Great picture, but I rarely find him attractive.

My Rock question has always been - black or white? Or what?

And I saw that Ellen interview too - he did not come out.

Yes Latins still use the term "mulatto" but not necessarily for someone who is half white/black.
