Neil Patrick Harris Knew He Was Gay When Burt Reynolds Kissed Him

Neil Patrick Harris poses for a photo with Hedwig and the Angry Inch creator John Cameron Mitchell at the signing for his new book “Choose Your Own Autobiography” on Tuesday (October 14) at Barnes & Noble Union Square in New York City.

The 41-year-old actor’s autobiography was just released and in it he talks about the moment he realized he was gay – when Burt Reynolds kissed him on the mouth while filming B.L. Stryker.

“As a joke at the end of one take, Burt leans over and kisses you square on the mouth. The crew thinks this is very funny, but it makes you uncomfortable. Uncomfortable and, it will ultimately turn out, gay. Burt Reynolds‘ kiss makes you gay,” Neil writes in the book (via Daily Mail).
