Noah Galvin plays shy gay teen Kenny on ABC’s family sitcom The Real O’Neals, but in a jaw-dropping interview with Vulture, the out 22-year-old actor is anything but timid—taking Colton Haynes to task for his belated coming out.
“That’s not coming out,” Galvin said of Haynes’ recent EW interview. “That’s fucking pussy bullshit. That’s like, ’Enough people assume that I sleep with men, so I’m just going to slightly confirm the fact that I’ve sucked a dick or two.’ That’s not doing anything for the little gays but giving them more masturbation material.”
He also lashed out at A-list director Bryan Singer and the Hollywood casting couch.
Yeah—Bryan Singer likes to invite little boys over to his pool and diddle them in the fucking dark of night. [Laughs.] I want nothing to do with that. I think there are enough boys in L.A. that are questionably homosexual who are willing to do things with the right person who can get them in the door. In New York there is a healthy gay community, and that doesn’t exist in L.A
And don’t show up on Galvin’s set if you’re in the glass closet.
” There was a kid who guested on our show. He was flirting with me so blatantly, to the point where he asked me out a few times.
At one point I turned to him and was like, Are you gay? And he was like, ’Well … I don’t know. I’m more like, go with the flow.’ And I was like, Shut the fuck up. Get out of my face with your wishy-washy bullshit answer. You’re a fucking faggot. Like, I know you are. You know you are. Stop beating around the bush. Just go make out with me in my dressing room. “
Even Modern Family, which airs on the same network as Real O’Neals, gets a tongue-lashing.
I think as wonderful of an actor as Eric Stonestreet is — I’ve never met him, I assume he’s a wonderful guy — he’s playing a caricature of a caricature of a stereotype of stereotype on Modern Family. And he’s a straight man in real life. And as hilarious as that character is, there’s a lack of authenticity. I think people — especially young gay kids — they can laugh at it, and they can see it as a source of comedy, but like, nothing more than that. And I want Kenny to be more than the funny gay kid.”
We’re impressed that Galvin is speaking is mind—but how will that sit with ABC and Hollywood’s gay elite?
