Reporter Responds to Louis Tomlinson, Denies Calling Him Gay
Louis Tomlinson created headlines when he ranted at a reporter he thought was calling him gay when she was really just applauding him for supporting the gay community… and now the reporter is responding to the tweets.
“The fact that you work for such a ‘credible’ paper and you would talk such rubbish is laughable. I am in fact straight,” the 22-year-old One Direction singer said while defending his sexuality.
Jenn Selby, who works for the UK outlet The Telegraph, took to her own Twitter to tell Louis that she never insinuated anything about his sexuality in her article.
Hi @Louis_Tomlinson thank you for your tweet. I'm sorry you found our article in any way insulting…
