Matthew Morrison Opens Up About His Sexuality

For the past four years Matthew Morrison has starred as choir director Will Schuester on Fox's hit show Glee. While the show has made him a household name, Morrison fondly likes to say, "At the end of the day, I'm a song and dance man."

To prove it, he's recorded his sophomore album, Where It All Began, which features standards and classic Broadway tunes, including "Send in the Clowns," "Ease on Down the Road" with Smokey Robinson and "On the Street Where You Live," the song Morrison said he has sung at every audition, including Glee. The project marks the first from 222 Records, a newly formed label by Adam Levine and the last from producer Phil Ramone, who died in March.

The title of the album is apropos. The 34-year-old California native's big break came when he made his Broadway debut in Footloose and went on to star in Hairspray and The Light in the Piazza as Fabrizio Naccarelli. That role earned him a Tony nomination for best featured actor in a musical.

With Glee being referred to as the "gayest show on TV," much has been written about Morrison's sexuality. But make no mistake: Morrison, with his boy-next-door smile, curly hair and chiseled abs, is not gay. He's used to the gossip, though. After all, he's been singing and dancing since he was in the fifth grade and says he's heard it all.
