I've Had Enough Of Being A Gay Icon! I've Had Enough Of All This Hard Work, Because, Since I Came Out, I Keep Getting All These Parts, And My Career's Taken Off. I Want A Quiet Life. I'm Going Back Into The Closet. But I Can't Get Back Into The Closet, Because It's Absolutely Jam-packed Full Of Other Actors.
