Prison Break Star Wentworth Miller Comes Out As Gay

Wentworth Miller has come out as gay.
The Prison Break star decided it was time to publicly reveal his sexuality after being invited to attend a film festival in Russia.
"Thank you for your kind invitation. As someone who has enjoyed visiting Russia in the past and can also claim a degree of Russian ancestry, it would make me happy to say yes," Wentworth, 41, says in a letter to Maria Averbakh, director of the St. Petersburg International Film Festival. "However, as a gay man, I must decline."

Personally, I can't say \I'm surprised. It's all the rave now to come out as gay. It just goes to show the kind of society we live in, the kind of society our children are going to grow up in.

All efforts to get Wizkid to snap pictures, shake or even show “some love” financially to the cheering crowd fell on deaf ears as Starboy completely ignored everyone as he walked arrogantly into the waiting Porsche Cayenne.
