"I don't know how to react to this. Any kind of recognition is a blessing. I don't believe in discriminating against any people. As
long as any community loves me for doing what I do on screen, what more can I ask for?""Of course I'm flattered and I feel hugely complimented. It's not everyday that one gets singled out by a very important and sensitive community people. Of course I enjoy the thought of being a gay icon….though let me tell you, I don't think I deserve it."
"I don't take these appellations seriously. My main job is to be an actor. And all these wonderful appellations come from that job. If I wasn't an actor I'd be neither considered sexy---whatever that means—nor a gay icon."
"I concentrate on my job as an actor. The rest I treat as bonuses given to me for doing my job seriously. My responsibility is towards my audience and entertaining them. 'Sexy' and 'gay icon' are terms of affection that are here today will be gone tomorrow. I value them as long as they're mine."
"I really don't know what being sexy is."
