Joel Mchale has addressed rumors he's gay, saying "I take it as a compliment" and that "I still see that on Twitter every day. It's flattering" The actor has been happily married to Sarah Williams since 1996 and is a father of two, but many gay fans still hope that he's in the closet. The 'Community' actor and 'The Soup' star told The Advocate "I always find it really weird when guys flip out over someone thinking they might be gay. If a guy gets offended by that, there's something's wrong with him."

He says that when he was a struggling actor getting his start, other men hit on him a lot. Mchale said "Back when I had just moved to L.A., before I was on any show, I was meeting a friend at a bar connected to this restaurant we went to. When I got there, I was the only one in the bar. While I was messing with my phone, I didn't notice the whole bar fill up with men. Guys kept coming up, asking, 'What's going on, man?' I figured they'd seen the commercials I was in. Then I realized that these men were coming on to me because I was alone in a gay bar."

Whoops. And apparently, other gay men were very devoted. "Much like in Say Anything, guys usually stand outside my house with a boombox over their head blasting the Indigo Girls", the star said.

McHale even joked that he has crushes on Brian Williams, Kobe Bryant and Chaz Bono.

Legions of gay fans are nothing to sniff at, because Community's struggled in the rankings recently. "Community needs all the help it can get, so thank God for our gay fans. Our young gay fans especially are the loudest and most Internet-savvy," the star said.
