Character Quote by Sean Hayes

“When I play a gay character, I want to be as believable as possible. And when I'm playing a straight character, I also want to be as believable as possible. So the less that people know about my personal life, the more believable I can be as a character.” quote by Sean Hayes — Download Open image
