American comedian Matt Rife has had his sexuality questioned for years. So, we decided to look into and find out if there’s anything to the gay rumors.

Is Matt Rife gay? Is he straight? Does he swing both ways? We’ll answer all of these questions and more in this CelebSexuality.com review.

Rife has joked about gay issues a few times

We always try to figure out where a celeb stands on LGBTQ+ rights. It’s hard to say with Matt Rife, but he’s probably fairly neutral on the issue.

Rife once Tweeted that “not everything needs to be gay” when his Uber car was rainbow colored. He said he didn’t care where people stood on that issue.

He also Tweeted “if you don’t like gay people you’re probably out of shape.”

There are some old Tweets that people dug up and said were homophobic, but Rife is a comedian, and it’s always hard to tell what’s satire and what’s real. The same is true with other comedians like Joe Rogan.

Is Matt Rife bisexual?

The rumors about Rife swinging both ways mostly come from his suggestive Instagram photos. The guy likes to pose with his shirt off, but honestly, that says nothing at all about his sexuality.

Matt Rife dating history

We’ve noticed something about comedians – their dating lives are very simple and uncomplicated compared to actors and musicians. We assume that’s because they’re funny and so women actually like them and stay with them for longer.

Rife has only been publicly linked to one woman – Kate Beckinsale. They had a relationship in 2017 that didn’t last too long. We don’t know who he’s dating currently, but there’s no reason to believe he’s gay just because he’s not romantically involved.

So, is Matt Rife gay?

No, we don’t see any reason at all to believe Matt Rife is gay or bi. He is private about his life and is still very young. Perhaps in the future we’ll learn more about his sexuality, but for now, we’re going with the notion he’s straight.

British comedian Russell Brand has long since triggered the ‘gaydars’ of some people. His flamboyant style and out-there personality has always prompted questions about his sexuality, yet, as you’ll soon see, his relationship history suggests he’s straight.

Is Russell Brand gay? Some people certainly seem to think so, but we’re going to find out for sure in this CelebSexuality.com piece.

Brand says he “doesn’t think so” to gay question

Anyone who knows anything about Russell Brand knows he’s a nonconformist and doesn’t fit the usual moulds and personality stereotypes of society. He’s a truly unique individual and is very open minded. Like rap star Post Malone, he has a dress style that leads many people to question his sexuality, but that’s ridiculous stereotyping in this day and age.

When asked if he was gay during one 2011 interview, Brand responded “I don’t think so, but it’s possible.” He clarified that he’d never felt the need to label his sexuality and that he was open to all forms of love.

Could this be similar to singer Robbie Williams‘ “man crushes”? Brand didn’t say that, but it sounds like he views sexuality on a spectrum rather than as a black/white thing.

Russell Brand is an outspoken LGBTQ+ ally

Brand leans left on the political spectrum, and he makes his views extremely clear on his hit podcast. As such, he’s an outspoken advocate of LGBTQ+ rights.

Like his fellow comedian Joe Rogan, Brand is all about equal treatment, acceptance, and tolerance for each other, celebrating our differences and uniting. However, that doesn’t mean he’s gay himself.

Is Russell Brand bisexual?

There’s no evidence to suggest that Brand has ever had encounters with a member of the same sex. His relationship history, which we’ll explore next, suggests he’s straight. However, he did say “it’s possible” that he’s gay, so he may have some tendencies. He once said he wished he was bisexual, suggesting he’s not.

Russell Brand dating history

Brand has been in relationships or has had encounters with a litany of beautiful women. They include Jessica Renton, Becki Seddiki, Cassie Summer, Imogen Thomas, Kate Moss, Peaches Geldof, Kat Shoob, Georgina Baillie, Teresa Palmer, Nikolett Barabas, Isabella Brewster, Geri Horner, Zara Martin, and Jemima Kahn. He was previously married to Katy Perry and has been married to Laura Gallacher since 2017.

So, is Russell Brand gay?

No, he isn’t gay. His relationship history and public statements suggest Russell Brand is straight. He’s an LGBTQ+ ally, but he doesn’t swing that way himself.

Pete Davidson is funny as hell, and like many other comedians, he seems to draw a lot of questions about his sexuality for some reason. That’s especially so because of his flamboyant style and appearance.

Is Pete Davidson gay? We’re going to find out in this post.

Pete Davidson went to gay bars and watched gay porn

Pete Davidson said once that his friend Miley Cyrus took him to gay bars on New Years Eve. He said this on an appearance on Saturday Night Live (SNL).

This isn’t uncommon for celebrities. For example, James Bond star Daniel Craig has said be goes to gay bars to avoid aggravation and drama. That does not automatically mean someone is gay.

According to Davidson, this was just part of a fun New Year’s eve, and we probably shouldn’t read too much into it.

On the same SNL appearance, Davidson admitted he watched gay porn to explore his sexuality. So, there was at least a question for him as to whether he was gay. Again, he’s not the first celeb to have explored. Despite being straight Tom Hardy says he has slept with men, and Coldplay frontman Chris Martin says he was confused about his sexuality at one point.

Is Pete Davidson bisexual?

We can certainly see where this rumor got its legs. He dresses like many gay men (then again, so does Post Malone and he’s straight), and he gives off certain vibes that suggest he’d be open to anything, but there’s no actual concrete evidence to suggest Davidson swings both ways. As his dating history shows (next), it’s beautiful women all the way down.

Pete Davidson dating history

Pete Davidson’s dating history is chock full of beautiful women. He’s been involved with Carly Aquilino, Cazzie David, Ariana Grande, Kate Beckinsale, Margaret Qualley, Kaia Gerber, Olivia O’Brien, Phoebe Dynevor, and Kim Kardashian. Clearly, this guy is into gorgeous women.

So, is Pete Davidson gay?

No, there’s no solid reason to believe that Pete Davidson is gay or bisexual. His dating history is a catalog of beautiful women, and while he dresses funky and has admitted to exploring his sexuality by watching gay porn, he’s a straight man.

Dave Chappelle has caused quite a stir within the LGBTQ+ community in recent years, with an offensive brand of comedy that many view as crossing the line.

But is Dave Chappelle gay himself? We’re going to look at all of the publicly available evidence to determine his sexuality.

Dave Chappelle Netflix special draws heavy criticism

Dave Chappelle’s Netflix special ‘The Closer’ has been labeled “blatantly homophobic and transphobic by some in the LGBTQ+ community.

To say it’s provocative would be an understatement. Many felt that Chappelle simply crossed the line with some of his jokes, and widespread protests have since caused some of his live shows to be canceled.

Instead of apologizing, Chappelle has doubled down and called his critics “transgender lunatics.” This has bolstered his support in some areas of society but has caused him to lose support with the majority of LGBTQ+ folk.

Dave Chappelle comes out as gay

When accepting the Mark Twain Prize, Chappelle said he was “looking forward to seeing what being gay would do for his career.”

Of course, this wasn’t an actual admission that he was homosexual, but rather was yet more doubling down on goading the gay community for laughs. It didn’t cause as much of a backlash as his initial show did, but many still weren’t happy with the statement.

Is Dave Chappelle bisexual?

There’s no reason whatsoever to believe Dave Chappelle is bisexual. He’s been in one long-term, committed relationship since 2001 with his wife Elaine Mendoza Erfe. He’s never been publicly linked to another man in any way, shape, or form.

Dave Chappelle dating history

Like many other comedians such as Joe Rogan and Jimmy Fallon, Chappelle doesn’t have a complicated relationship history. He’s been married to Elaine Mendoza Erfe since 2001. There are rumors that he once hooked up with Azealia Banks way back in the day, but nothing ever came of it if it’s true.

So, is Dave Chappelle gay?

No, Chappelle isn’t gay, and what’s more, he’s no ally of the LGBTQ+ cause. Rather than realizing his jokes offended many and went far across the line of what’s acceptable, Chappelle is intent on cashing in on goading the gay community. As far as his own sexuality goes, though, he’s straight, and there’s no reason to believe otherwise.

Like many other comedians, Jimmy Kimmel’s sexuality is a hot topic online. However, unlike some of the others, there are actual fair reasons for people to wonder which way Kimmel swings.

Is Jimmy Kimmel gay? We’re going to find out by looking at the actual evidence.

The kiss between Jimmy Kimmel and Johnny Depp

Rumors began flying in 2013 after Johnny Depp kissed Jimmy Kimmel live on his show. This caused many to wonder about both men’s sexuality. They have remained friends and clearly have some sort of bromance/chemistry going on, but there’s nothing more to it than a publicity stunt as far as we can tell.

Kimmel apologizes for offending LGBTQ+ community with Tweet

Kimmel, like many other comedians in recent times, got himself into a bit of trouble with the LGBTQ+ community when he engaged in a spat with Fox News’ Sean Hannity about his devotion to Donald Trump, questioning if there might be more to it. He called him a “whole ass circus” in response to Hannity calling him an “ass clown,” and many took offense at that.

Kimmel clarified that he didn’t intend to belittle or upset members of the gay community” and apologized.

To be honest, while comedians like Dave Chappelle can go too far and cross the line, we think this was probably innocent enough and does not lead us to believe Kimmel is homophobic.

Is Jimmy Kimmel bisexual?

Rumors about Kimmel’s sexuality have come mostly from things he has said and done on his show. There’s the kiss with Johnny Depp, and there’s a comment he made about letting someone have sex with him for $1.3 million. As far as we can tell, this is just his style of humor and shouldn’t be used to draw any conclusions about his sexuality.

Jimmy Kimmel dating history

Kimmel has a relatively calm and uneventful dating history. He was in a relationship with Sarah Silverman for a long time, and he’s been married to Gina Kimmel (1988-2002) and Molly McNearny since 2013.

So, is Jimmy Kimmel gay?

We don’t think so. While there are some things that might suggest he is bisexual, or at least is open to it, there’s no hard evidence at all that Kimmel is anything other than a straight man with a wicked sense of humor that people consistently take the wrong way.

Jimmy Fallon is no doubt a funny guy, and like lots of comedians, many people wonder about his sexuality.

So, is Jimmy Fallon gay? We’re going to dig into his background and see what way the comic swings in this article.

Nicole Kidman thought Jimmy Fallon was gay

There are very few straight men who could walk away from Nicole Kidman trying it on with them. And she knows it! 

This is why the Aussie actress thought Jimmy Fallon might be gay. After being on The Tonight Show with Fallon, she told him she liked him, and reminded him how he had turned her down.

“We were at David Finch’s house, I think it was David’s house, and it was when Brad and Jen were still together, so it was a long time ago. And you could’ve asked for my number then ‘cause it was round two… and you still didn’t ask for it, and you know that’s true. So do not pretend!” – Nicole Kidman

Fallon played shocked and realized he had blown a chance to date one of the most beautiful women in the world. Did his nerves get the better of him or was he oblivious? Nobody will ever know but Fallon himself.

Is Jimmy Fallon bisexual?

Some Reddit sleuths have pointed out how Fallon looks at other men on TV and concluded he is either in the closet or bisexual. This has been the source of lots of speculation within the LGBTQ+ community. However, it’s not actual evidence that Fallon is gay. Like fellow comedians James Corden and Joe Rogan, he’s often accused of being gay for having bromances or admiration for other men. However, that doesn’t mean anything in and of itself.

Jimmy Fallon dating history

The comedian has been in relationships with Nandia Dajani, Jordana Brewster, Tara Subkoff, and he possibly had an encounter with Winona Ryder. He has been married to Nancy Juvonen since 2007.

So, is Jimmy Fallon gay?

We’re going to say no. He’s married with kids and has always maintained that he’s straight. Just because he looks at other men on his show in a way that sparks rumors and because he blew a chance to date Nicole Kidman doesn’t mean he’s gay. So, we’re saying that Jimmy Fallon is straight until some actual evidence to the contrary surfaces.
