Other than someopne coming out publicly, what would count as substantial evidence and how comon is that? 90% of the speculation on here is just that speculation mixed with wishful thinking
By substancial evidence I mean, like I said in my post, something that is not tabloid gossip where they imply a celeb is gay because they """heard from sources""" but never say who are said sources, or just post blind items about said celebs.
Something like pictures of them with other men in suggestive situations or, like
@Sunrise_4 brought up, first hand accounts from people in the industry or close to them.
It's obvious a celeb coming out themselves is the only way to know 100%, but if that were to stop speculation then there really is no point in this thread even existing lol
