Zac Eon has been addrsg gay mors wh class and style for years, so why has taken him so long to get around to talkg to The Advote? Zac Eon’s terview wh The Advote is a chance for the actor to addrs gay mors that date all the way back to his High School Mil days. “After High School Mil and Hairspray, I’ve always felt embraced by the gay muny, and I feel credibly grateful and honored, ” Zac Eon said durg his first-ever gay prs s-down.
Zac Eon, whose latt role is The Paperboy, oppose Nile Kidman, went on to share, “I don’t like to live fear about thgs like mors and backlash to beg wh — that’s the way I was raised — but I jt n’t see what’s so wrong about beg gay. Will we see the heartthrob embrace a gay role on the big screen?
