Celebrity Outting of the Week

[Grazzt]

George Takei. (http://www.gaywired.com/article.cfm?section=10&id=7488)

Of course, many would not consider Takei an actual "celebrity" as per say, but I'm sure the geek population of these boards ensure a healthy number of Star Trek fans. :D

So now that we have a gay cast member, maybe they'll give in and finally get a gay crew member for the next incarnation of Star Trek (always assuming there is another one).

I'm still surprised no one thought Takei was gay.

I mean yeah, he's the patron saint of Dandies, but C'MON!!
