It's way past time for a gay actor to w an Amy Award! * gay oscar winners 2022 *

Wanda Syk promised – and therefore me, specifilly – a gay Osrs show. And we certaly got a wele gay-as-n-be moment on the Osrs DeBose pped a stunng awards season by wng the bt supportg actrs award for her role as Ana "Wt Si Story" – beg the first openly queer Ao-Lata to w an actg Osr.

And for you people  Florida, we're gog to have a gay night, " Syk, who is a lbian, said at the top of the Osrs show, directly mockg Florida's legislatn. Syk' -hosts Amy Schumer and Rega Hall echoed her, sayg "gay, gay, gay. "While sayg "gay" solidary is certaly wele, wouldn't have been enough to ll this night any kd of gay succs if a queer person didn't w.

But Ian McKellen is still the only out gay male actor ever nomated for an Hudson was nomated for bt actor 1957, but remaed closeted until he died 1985 of AIDS; two-time Osr wner Kev Spacey announced he was livg as a gay man only after he was acced of sexually harassg a teenage boy; and Jodie Foster is still the only bt actrs wner to e out (and years after her w, at that).

Gay person to gay person. Brg on the mic:Beyoncé serv an ace Osrs performance wh assist om Serena and Ven WilliamsIn se you missed:Florida's 'Don't Say Gay' bill sparked natnal backlash. The former, Ang Lee's adaptatn of the Annie Proulx story about a tortured gay affair between two wboys, earned three Osrs and was favoure for bt picture, before beg ntroversially pipped to the post by Crash.

The latter, a bpic of San Francis's first openly gay mayor Harvey Milk, won Sean Penn bt actor, and the pre-ement gay wrer Dt Lance Black bt adapted screenplay.

OSRS 2022 HOSTS AND AWARD WNERS COMMENT ON CONTROVERSIAL 'DON'T SAY GAY' BILL

‘For you people Florida, we’re gog to have a gay night,’ said Syk * gay oscar winners 2022 *

The qutn of whether straight actors should be so often tsted wh gay rol, and whether that is to the triment of LGBTQ+ performers, is one that has been creasgly bated recent years, but particularly flar up whenever the Osrs roll around. No openly gay male actor has been nomated for an Osr sce Ian McKellen for playg Gandalf Lord of the Rgs: The Fellowship of the Rg (Cred: Alamy)On the one hand, an argument put forward by the lik of leadg gay screenwrer Rsell T Davi is that LGBTQ+ rol are bt taken by LGBTQ+ performers bee lived experience lends an abundance of thenticy, But a mon unterpot to this view is that 's an actor's job to fill the sho of characters different to themselv – 's lled actg, after all.

The problem wh that, crics suggt, is that isn't a two-way street: straight actors will get the awards kudos for gay rol, but gay actors aren't given the opportuny to play straight major – and award-wng – movi. Televisn is a more progrsive field this regard – one needs only look to Jonathan Bailey, the gay leadg man playg the straight romantic hero Netflix's Bridgerton (2019), or Neil Patrick Harris's stt as the womanisg Barney Stson How I Met Your Mother (2005-2014). When McKellen himself was asked about why no openly gay man had ever won the bt actor Osr an terview 2016, he implied that that was down to "prejudice", rather than chance: "My speech has been two jackets… 'I’m proud to be the first openly gay man to w the Osr'.

I've had to put back my pocket twice, " McKellen told The Guardian – while when asked to ment on the fact that Tom Hanks, Philip Seymour Hoffman and Sean Penn had all won bt actor Osrs for playg gay men, he rpond "How clever, how clever… what about givg me one for playg a straight man? The latt, this year, is Benedict Cumberbatch, who is nsired a bt actor ontnner for playg an implicly gay rancher The Power of the Dog. ”Wanda Syk sgg “Gay!
