Gotta give teen TV soap opera Gossip Girl credit for tossing out a curveball — despite all the hype over it’s cheap “ZOMG! CHUCK IS GOING TO KISS A GUY!!” ratings ploy, his final line in this clip earned a well-deserved raised eyebrow:
This is either a) a straight guy ridiculously comfortable with his sexuality, or b) a bisexual coming-out scene (as in the books the show is based on). Time will tell but this hinting at past adventures certainly gives fans lots more material for slash fiction.
An unlikely inspiration for slash stories would be the bumbling cops in Hot Fuzz but the film’s creator Edward Wright and stars Simon Pegg and Nick Frost had a field day creating some on Twitter yesterday. C’mon guys, save it for the sequel!
