The 41-year-old Prison Break star Wentworth Miller announced he was gay on Wednesday in order to take a public stand against homophobia in Russia. He declined an invitation to attend the St. Petersburg International Film Festival after the country passed a series of anti-gay laws.
Read his response below:
'As a gay man, I must decline,' he wrote in his response. 'I am deeply troubled by the current attitude toward and treatment of gay men and women by the Russian government,' Wentworth added in his letter. 'The situation is in no way acceptable, and I cannot in good conscience participate in a celebratory occasion hosted by a country where people like myself are being systematically denied their basic right to live and love openly,' he said. Another straight man gone gay! Wentworth said if circumstances improved he would be free to make a different choice - adding that he had 'a degree of Russian ancestry' and had enjoyed past visits to the country previously.
What a shame! Another straight man gone gay. The last days beckoning?
