Papa Bristow Comes Out

Victor Garber, the erstwhile no-nonsense Jack Bristow of TV’s Alias, has confirmed that he is gay.

I had a feeling. He’s a theater man. He has an innate elegance to himself. He’s besties with Jennifer Garner (I mean, he married her to Ben Affleck).

All kidding aside, I just...knew. And it just didn’t matter, no, not because he’s not sexy (he is), but because, unlike what some Hollywood people may think, a large chunk of the audience doesn’t care about that aspect of an actor’s life.

They care about good acting, and Garber’s aces.

But, anyway, the actor was recently asked about his sexuality and whether it is true what Wikipedia says, that he has a bf, to which he did rather nonchalantly say, “I don’t really talk about it, but everybody knows.

That would be, as Jodie Foster pointed out in her oblique coming-out at the Globes on Sunday, everyone, y’ know, that the man actually knows and should and would know.

He also confirmed that his partner – Rainer Andreesen, an artist/model who is f---in handsome as all get-out – will accompany him to the Screen Actors Guild Awards later this month. So keep your eyes peeled for that one if you are so inclined.
