Whether maybe because they're fearing the backlash that they would receive if they come out or because those rumors are simply not true, some stars like Odell Beckham Jr. and Elijah Wood insist they are straight despite rumors stating otherwise.

AceShowbiz - Taron Egerton, who plays openly gay singer Elton John in biopic "Rocketman", got people confused after he posted on Instagram a photo of another man with the caption "Cutie. My boy" and liked a comment that read, "does that mean he's got a boyfriend now?" Fans, however, were not sure if he was being sincere or just joking.
The 29-year-old Welsh actor later addressed the question about his sexuality during an appearance on Radio Times. "One of the lads was at my London flat and I Instagrammed a picture of him and said 'Look at this cutie,' and a million outlets reported I was coming out as gay," he said of the said Instagram post, stressing, "I'm not gay." Adding that "it was a joy" to support his friends who came out as gay, the "Kingsman" star said that he's "not going to stop calling my mates cuties and gorgeous, because they are cuties and they are gorgeous."
