People magazine has confirmed that the publication cover that appeared on the internet claiming that Taylor Lautner has admitted he is a gay is a hoax. The cyber world went abuzz when what appeared to be a genuine People magazine cover emerged which showed the actor announcing that he’s “out and proud”.
According to the website Gossip Cop, a spokesman for People had confirmed to them that the cover is “absolutely fake”, the Daily Mail reported. Many fans were fooled by the faux magazine cover, which was dated January 7, 2012. It used a fake quote from Lautner, saying he is gay and “tired of the rumours”.
He was quoted as saying he felt “more liberated, and happier than I’ve ever been”. The actor had earlier denied being gay in an interview in the November issue of GQ Australia.
