LOS ANGELES: Kevin Spacey came out as gay early Monday and apologized to actor Anthony Rapp, who accused the Hollywood star of making a sexual advance on him at a 1986 party when he was only 14 years old. I have loved and had romantic encounters with men throughout my life, and I choose now to live as a gay man. Rapp said Spacey picked him up, put him on the bed and lay on top of him. The now-disgraced tycoon was sacked as co-chairman of The Weinstein Company and also resigned from its board. “‘Sure, I may have tried to rape a 14-year-old boy when I was 26, but I’m gay!’ is a pretty horrible defense,” conservative commentator Ben Shapiro tweeted.
