Actor’s slip of the tongue reveals more than intended
Secretive Metrosexual’s (SM) sexual orientation has always been the subject of speculation ever since he caught viewers’ attention in a talent search. There’s really no surprise there—SM’s never been seen dating women despite his physical pluperfection and eye-candy appeal. He was even said to be the apple of Amiable Macho’s (AM) eye for some time before their “special friendship” went pfft.
Other than his sexuality, SM has been keeping another well-guarded secret: He isn’t the son of the man who raised him—which is noticeable in the disparity of his skin color and that of his “father’s.” One fateful interview, however, SM slipped and disclosed why his Caucasian-sounding name wasn’t “in sync” with his less-than-Caucasian looks. “Ah, must be because my real dad is (race),” he quipped absent-mindedly.
Then, SM realized what he just did. Oops.
