He’s quickly becoming a bankable comedy star. He’s also very, VERY easy on the eyes. Actor Paul Rudd, whose new movie “I Love You, Man” opened at number two this weekend, has had hilarious supporting roles in “Knocked Up,” “The 40-Year-Old Virgin” and “Anchorman,” but his real success started with last year’s gross-out comedy “Role Models.” Rudd opened up to Entertainment Weekly and admitted that he is way in touch with his feminine side.
I always thought I’d be a really good gay guy. I love American Idol. I watch Antiques Roadshow like crazy. Guys like Oscar Wilde, Stephen Fry, Elton John - they’re all very bright, with a razor-sharp wit. David Sedaris - who’s funnier than David Sedaris?
The Saturday Night Live [episode] that I did was such a gay-heavy show. But it didn’t even cross my mind until after. The family that kept kissing each other - I didn’t even think of that as being gay.
I remember doing interviews for The Object of My Affection [in which he co-starred as Jennifer Aniston's gay roommate], and people would say, “What was it like to kiss a guy?” Like it was such a shocking thing. I said, “How many times does anyone ask, ‘You had to shoot somebody, was that weird?’”
I love gay guys. I feel pretty gay. I’m certainly not the most macho guy in the room.
I wonder what Paul’s wife had to say about this little revelation? Heh, heh. Anyway, I’d bet that Rudd has plenty of admirers these days - gay and straight. The actor also revealed that one of his favorite pastimes is going out and singing karaoke with friends. Of course, those friends include Jon Hamm, the star of Mad Men, as well as Peter Dinklage, the star of “Elf” and “The Station Agent.” Not exactly your everyday group of friends. Gay or straight, I’d gladly sing karaoke with Paul any day!

Oh god, there is a puddle on my keyboard from those pictures! I loved him ever since Romeo + Juliet.

Omg! Yes!
I loved him in Romeo + Juliet. Loved him in Clueless, adored him on Friends.
He’s just too cute for words.

Have to admit I mistakenly thought he WAS gay for the longest time. I don’t know how I was misinformed, but it made me love him more.

He seems very in touch with his feminine side and that’s a good thing, women love that. His wife is very lucky.

Paul Rudd is soooooo cute (for an older man)

love him!!!
Just saw “I love you man” and love him (and Jason Segel) even more….

he’s cute and funny, but he’s still perpetuating stereotypes.

Anyone remember his sitcom, “Wild Oats”? He was gorgeous in that too. Wish they would rerun it.
-
Oh, David Sedaris. Flamingly gay and oh so wonderful. I would like to sit down with David, Paul, Michael Cera, Seth Rogen and Jason Segel. What a great day that would be.

I love Paul Rudd, and I just wanted to say that Role Models was definitely not a gross-out comedy! It was a really funny, sweet movie, one of my favorites from last year, and I strongly recommend it.
