Any fan of Tori Spelling (how could you not be a fan of Tori?) would have known Zachary Quinto as her gay friend Sasan on the show So NoTORIous. However if you lived under a rock and never saw Tori's show, then you will probably know him from his evil portrayal of Sylar on NBC's Heroes.
I love Mr. Quinto, but he gives me the creeps as Sylar. Heroes finally returns on April 23rd and I am so excited that I just can't hide it. (No, seriously... I'm Pointer Sisters excited.)
Ok, ok, ok. Sylar is mega evil, but you can't help but think...yeah he is kind of hot. (For someone who steals peoples' brains, that is.)







I find myself waiting for him and Mohinder to start making out in every scene they share. I used to feel totally awful about that because -- as you said -- hello, creepy. But gods, it would be *so hot*!

There's a great "is he or isn't he" thread on IMDB. I think the evidence supports that he probably is.
They point out that he has pretty consistently plays gay characters (the gay priest in the play LAYING OF HANDS, the bisexual "Real World"-er on OFF CENTRE --where he actually says "Taste My Bisexual Fury!" no joke--and the probably gay Adam on "24").
Then there's this amazing quote from an interview he did with Six Degrees Magazine: "Well, Ugg boots came and went, thank the sweet Lord....I’m kind of over skinny jeans. They seem to be all the rage right now, and I could do without those."
If he's gay, he seems fairly "out" and that's hot to me, and if he's straight and this is how he rolls, then he's even HOTTER to me due to his unattainability :-( Either way, he's going places.

Well, he is not gay! He's been in a relationship with this girl until 2006 and now he's single.
And even though some people tend to think he is, despite the fact he was with girls before, and say maybe he doesn't want to come out or something, i think it's not because he was very open towards the gay parts he had to play, and stylish and all, that he is gay, see what i mean. I feel gays, and he is not... definitely!
or so i wish... I've been dreaming about him for as long as I've discovered heroes and sylar... and i've just started dling so notorious because i need to see him lol...
This man is so hot! oooohhh! lol

If This man was gay I'd cry!!! He is so adorable and you know what he deserves the best! I hope even after heroes ends that he will get awesome, creepy, villainy roles to play. Cause he for sure knows what he is doing. Even though he's gorgeous, he can be pretty creepy playing Sylar.
I root for him!!

I'm sorry to those who desperately don't want him to be gay, but... I just so happen to be in a long-term relationship with someone Zach went to high school with (Central Catholic Hish School, in Pittsburgh. I've seen the yearbook pictures, so I'm not making this up). And my partner tells me that Zachary was, and is, beyond ANY shadow of a doubt, gay. He and Zach got along okay, but apparently Zach could be rather rude to others (He had somewhat of an ego, I understand). My partner and I are also friends with someone who went to CMU (Carnegie Mellon University), who was in the Theatre Arts department (She was a technical theater major, while Zach was an acting major), and she has told us in the past that although Zach didn't go out of his way to flaunt it or publicize it, it was very commonly known around campus that he was gay and dated several guys. If Zach is publicly being seen with a girl right now, it is most likely to throw the press off the scent, especially since he's been thrust into such an intense spotlight as having been cast as Spock in the STAR TREK remake. I'm sure he knew the scrutiny he'd receive and is understandably trying to maintain a low profile as far as his personal life is concerned.

Gay, straight, bisexual. Who the F**K cares? The man is scorching hot and will make a damn fine sexy Spock.

Totally hot. He's in town (Toronto) for a Heroes appearance... I was desperately hoping he might check out one of the gay bars/ Alas.

WHaattt!!! NO NO NO!!! Heaven forbid it!! Zachary will not be a gay!! And if he was ever a gay, I'll pray and fast for him.... He may not be a gay!!!
He is too hot and too handsome to be a gay T_T no no no!

I hate it when people say "he's too hot to be gay".
Hello?! Everyone knows the hottest guys are always gay.
:P
Posted by Paul | September 12, 2007 2:07 PM
I've seen him at gay bars in West Hollywood. Unless he was doing "research", the man is gay.
Posted by Brian Chan | September 25, 2007 3:22 PM
OMG!! are you guys/ girls serious!!! what the fuck are all of your problems!! GAY
Posted by Lorenzo | October 4, 2007 6:08 PM
Sorry to be the spoiler to the girls, but yup Zach is gay. We dated on and off, I always promised never to say a word about it. (Zach you know what you need to give me back, and my silence will continue).
Anyhow does it really really matter? Of course NOT. Zach is a talented actor and his career is just starting to gain momentum!!! You GO Zach! (You know how to reach me)
Posted by Mr Abbey | October 5, 2007 12:12 PM
Hmmm... He's too hot to be straight.
Posted by Zak | October 12, 2007 8:58 PM
All I can say is that I'm crossing my fingers that he is gay and someday, somehow we bump into each other and fall in love. ^_^
He's so friggin hot, I love him to death. :)
Posted by Adrian | October 30, 2007 12:33 PM
He's gay?! I knew it! Anyone by any chance got some more dirt on him? *calls out former boyfriends of his*
Posted by Patrick | November 13, 2007 5:36 PM
So what if he's gay..Can he be bribed?
Posted by pa | January 7, 2008 10:01 PM
Quinto... hot??? I mean, c'mon! what are you talking about? I find him very unattractive. How come every man becomes hot once he gets on TV?
Posted by phoenix | January 8, 2008 5:47 AM
Come on, guys! Who cares whether is gay or not? Do you expect to go out with him?

Ok, man, it's not that I don't like Tori, but you know, everyone does not live in the United States and I don't think this show interests people a lot in the rest of the world (which remains the main part of it :; )

I think it's extremely rude of everyone here to make such a big deal out of whether or not Zachary Quinto is gay. NONE of you are his close personal friends, and therefore have no real knowledge of his personal life. I'm not jumping up and down saying that I know more about him, but I do know that people deserve their privacy, especially celebrities.
Get over yourselves, and stop trying to badmouth someone just because they're a public figure. It doesn't make you look any better, and it certainly isn't keeping Mr. Quinto out of a job. He is hardworking, and charitable, and if anyone doesn't like it ... they can find someone else to nitpick!

These threads always amuse and annoy... What we do know is that Zachary is attractive and talented.
We'll also enter a gentle reminder -- the anonymous pool of blog commenting is rife with gossip and misinformation. There's always the mythical "friend of a friend" reference.
My position is this -- if someone is gay and wants the world to know, they'll make it happen. (There are probably hotlines set up at a few magazine for just such a case.)

I think on the comment above is a wrong sentence: It has to be "If he isn't gay it's better but if he IS I won't kill myself..."
I agree!!!
Posted by ♥♥♥ | March 23, 2008 11:33 AM
I just want to mention that I have run into him quite a few times, and all I have to say is that he a genuinely nice, friendly person. Isn't that all that matters?

I too am a member of the SArmy and i totally agree with roxrsoxof. His talent has nothing to do with his sexuality and it doesnt take a genious to act gay! (not slating zach's acting, he's amazing) but does it really matter whether he is gay or not, as long as he is happy!
I know many guys who have been to the club G-A-Y in London and none of them are gay, they go for the scene...the music...and anyway, arent most homosexuals generally nicer than Heterosexuals..hence no bar fights in gay clubs!
You should all seriously get a life and stop questioning his sexuality. When or IF he wants to publicise his sexuality, he'll do it in his own time...not that he needs to, its his own personal life, so none of our business to be honest!
