7 Celebrities Who've Denied Gay Rumors

May 8, 2013 - 7:25 pm by Terry Carter Jr.

Hot 97's DJ Mister Cee was caught soliciting a male prostitute in Brooklyn this past weekend (May 4), according to the New York Daily News. And it wasn't the first time he'd been involved in a gay scandal. In 2011, Cee pled guilty after being arrested for receiving oral sex from a man in his car. The DJ spoke out against gay allegations, stating that he merely has an addiction to prostitutes and enjoys quick sex. "Let’s say for argument’s sake, let’s say I’m lying…that’s my choice," he said. "Even if I am lying and I choose to not come out, that’s my choice."

Sounds iffy to us, but Cee's not the first famous figure to deny being gay. Click through for 7 other celebs who've ducked the rumors.

Raven Symone

Ms. That's So Raven grew up in the public eye, so it was shocking to some people to hear that she might be living as a lesbian.

I'm not one, in my 25 year career to disclose who I'm dating. and I shall not start now. My sexual orientation is mine, and the person I'm datings to know. I'm not one for a public display of my life.' Raven added, 'That is my right as a HUMAN BEing whether straight or gay. To tell or not to tell. As long as I'm not harming anyone."

John Travolta

John Travolta is one of Hollywood's most respected actors, but the rumor mill hasn't stopped twirling that he might be secretly gay. To add fuel to the fire, in 2011 Travolta was accused of sexually harassing Fabian Zanzi, a male cruise line employee. The lawsuit states that Travolta exposed himself naked and asked for a massage from Zanzi and even offered to pay him $12,000 to keep quiet. Travolta denies any wrongdoing, saying the rumors are "false and malicious."

Marques Houston

Marques Houston was caught in the middle of a hot mess when Raz B accused Marques of molesting him when he was younger. The former B2K member went into great detail describing the events that occurred while he was in the group, but Houston took to the radio to clear his name. "It was a big joke to me," said Marques. "It’s all BS. He jumps on the fact that he’s an attention whore. He wants that attention because B2K was huge and everybody knows how big B2K was. And when something like that is stripped from you and you can’t get any fame, you go to the extreme measures and the dude is psycho…"

Shemar Moore

Shemar Moore is known for his large female fan base, but even they started to question whether he played for the other team when he was spotted naked on a gay beach in Miami.
