Just out of curiosity, how long ago was this, and how old was he at the time? I would think that being gay in LA within the last... gosh, like 20 or 30 years now... hell, even 40 or 45 years... wouldn't be a big deal.

But I guess the entertainment industry is an odd duck. I remember the big stink when that actress from "Married With Children" came out. And of course the whole Ellen thing. And this was in the early and late 90s respectively.
