-MM: Were you worried that playing a gay character would hurt your career?
-JGL: Oh come on! The Rock played gay! None's worried about that anymore. I'm about to do two studio movies, and none of the directors or studio people were like: "I don't know... I think the kids think he's gay!" Plus to me, gay is a normal person who likes people of the same sex. The character I played in "Mysterious Skin" had a very damaged, unhealthy sexuality, whether he was with women or men.

-JGL: Fame has always been a downside to acting for me. It gives me the creeps.
-Esquire: Even the women? The Money?
-JGL: I have a lot of trouble getting turned on by girls who are turned on by celebrity.
