Jake Gyllenhaal Gay? ‘Brokeback Mountain’ Star Feels Flattered To Be Asked Questions About His Sexuality

In an exclusive interview for an upcoming episode of 'Inside The Actors' Studio', 33-year-old Jake Gyllenhaal reveals that being asked if he's gay does not intimidate him at all. He actually finds the question a "huge compliment".


The 'Prisoners' actor was asked several questions during the interview including his family's Hollywood background as well as his working experiences with celebrities like Anne Hathaway.


Talk show host James Lipton also asked very intimate questions such as the details of his Bar Mitzvah as well as his feelings for the death of his 'Brokeback Mountain' co-star, Heath Ledger. The Academy Award nominee describes the experience similar to "losing a family member."


He has also acknowledged the role of his sister, Maggie Gyllenhaal, in his career: "My sister is probably the reason why I do this. [She's] somebody who I admire more than most anybody in the world, and she drives me f-king nuts sometimes."


Although the actor is romantically involved with Sports Illustrated model Alyssa Miller, he is still not exempted from gay rumors. Nonetheless, he did not bothered to be asked such question about his sexuality.


His answers will be detailed during the episode's airing on September 19 on Bravo.
