Кое-что, из интервью... Ну, что мне Очень понравилос...
"I knew I was gay when I was 13," he tells me. "Actually, I'd probably begun to realise when I was nine."
"I remember looking at a photograph of a man and a woman, and my eyes went instinctively to the man."
"Growing up, I didn't lie about my sexuality, but I did pretend. I had a girlfriend at college - you don't know if you don't like it until you try it."
"I can't answer that. I don't have a desire to do so, but that doesn't mean I don't find women sexy."
In 1992, while starring in The Phantom Of The Opera in the West End, he decided it was time to tell his family about his sexuality.
"There was a lot of fear of Aids, and I was scared because I hadn't been feeling very well," he says. "So I flew home to break the news."
They sat down at the kitchen table and Barrowman blurted out: "I'm gay and I need an HIV test."
His parents said they had already guessed he was gay and that it was no big deal, but urged him to have an Aids test as soon as possible."
"It was a relief," says Barrowman. "And when I had all the tests they were negative - all I had was some gastric trouble and a chest infection. That was a big relief. From then on I could live the way I am openly."
The only time he did consciously camp things up was when he and Lloyd Webber were on Jonathan Ross's TV chat show last year.
After a play on words about them being a couple, model Janice Dickinson, a fellow guest, took the remarks at face value and assumed Barrowman and Lloyd Webber were gay partners.
"The next week Andrew's wife, Madeleine, came up to me and said: 'My husband will never appear on TV with you again.'"
"I said: 'Madeleine it was the best thing that ever happened to him,' and we had a good laugh about it.
"Andrew is very camp, but you can be camp and not gay, and you can be gay and not camp."
For 15 years John has been living happily with his partner, architect Scott Gill, whom he met in 1991 when he was performing at the Chichester Festival Theatre in West Sussex. *Вот, теперь я знаю, кто такой Скотт Гилл

"When Scott came round to my dressing room afterwards, I knew I'd found my soul mate," he says.
"It's taken me 30 years to get this way, and I don't intend to let go. I work hard, but I play hard, too, and that's the one part of me that nobody sees. But I intend to be around for a long time yet."
Да, я восхищаюсь им!... :give_rose:
