'Big Bang' Geek Emerges From Glass Closet

Jim Parsons, the Emmy-winning star of TV's barely watchable The Big Bang Theory, has just come out of the closet in the New York Times. He starred in The Normal Heart on Broadway last year and now he's doing even more Broadway, playing the lead in a revival of Harvey, and thus it seemed an appropriate time to admit what everyone pretty much already knew. Also, he's been in a relationship for ten years, so anyone who's really into dorks like him can just settle down... you can't have him. [OUT, US Weekly]
