I can NOT believe anyone is defending this guy. I don't know if he's gay, but he sure as hell is crazy. If you are in a GAY bar, and accept a drink from a GAY male couple, then you are sending the "available" signal. You don't do that in front of the significant other. Blaming her is the height of manipulation. It's the Shaggy song "Wasn't Me". Most people don't get "friendly" this way.
Then again, do straight men really casually lead gay men on this way? If you accept a drink AND go over to the table, you are accepting an invitation. Those acts are why people think he's closeted. Most people have the decency not to lead other people on about their interest.
As for the leather pants, the 80s called. It wants them back. Who wears leather pants these days? Does he have a Duran Duran haircut, too? Or was he in Prince mode? Or was this just a Eurotrash moment, wearing them with his velvet jacket? I stopped seeing leather pants on anyone outside of a Hoodah parade in 1988, I think.
Nominate him for What Not to Wear. Please!
