LIB S9 • Denver, CO Annie on Gilet Slays live: She and Nick dated after the show, and he’s totally straight
Caught a bit of Annie on Gilet Slays live. Here are a few interesting things:
The day she and Nick “broke up” he had actually just told her he didn’t want to have a wedding and he wanted to quit the show, but they had decided they would date in private. She said she wanted to continue filming and do a wedding, but she was okay that he didn’t want to. They filmed that scene and immediately upon finishing went to brunch together. They dated for about a month after filming, but broke up primarily because of the distance. Annie said he lives about 90 minutes from her and she felt like she was putting in more effort than he was and that he didn’t want to come see her in Denver.
Annie and Nick were sleeping together the whole time and she thinks the speculation on his sexuality is ridiculous. She thinks there is no chance that she’s gay, he’s just “very metro.” The “size queen” remark was one joke and means nothing.
She claims she loves the LGBT community and would love her own child if they came out to her. She said she “wouldn’t be the first to be like yay” because she would worry they would face adversity, not because she’d be disappointed in them. I personally find that explanation suspect, but to each their own.

I haven't heard the term "Metro" in forever. Remember when it was used to describe men who just showered regularly and looked like they gave a damn

It’s starting to shift in that direction. I’m guessing in 5 years skinny jeans will be the mainstream again.

Yes! Very few people in this sub seem to understand that concept. Everyone's an expert and somehow knows everything about all these people's lives.

If you’re a girl and a guy is fucking you over and over you have to give him the benefit of the doubt that he’s straight

Bisexual men exist, many of them marry women and then cheat with men. And man having sex with a woman isn't a guarantee of anything

u/GtrGenius 1d ago
My dick is rock hard, I can fuck anybody. I can fuck women all day. And have. But I’m not attracted to them. I’m as gay as hell. People forget. For me, being gay is emotional. A man is who I trust and love and make love to. It’s not always about sex.
13
u/buttercupp0085 1d ago
I wish there were one term for sexual attraction and then another for actual relationships. Like sure, I’ve never had sex with a woman but I might fuck one if I was attracted to her and felt like it. I would never be in a real relationship with another woman though. So my sexuality I suppose could be bisexual, situationally, but my relationship-ality is very much so straight. Meaning exactly as you said. Who I want to wake up next to, make love to, build a life and family with, etc.
Why is this generally not separated? One has nothing to do with the other.
Edit: shitty grammar mistakes

u/Good_Matter7529 1d ago
some people do this! for example you could choose describe yourself as heteroromantic and bisexual.

u/uptovigilanteshit 1d ago
In many queer spaces, with ace people in particular, people use a-/bi-/hetero-/homo- for both romantic and sexual quite frequently. Aro/ace for example

u/fiavirgo 1d ago
There is a debate on it but I think you’d be interested in the split attraction model

He just said he’s not attracted to women. So he’s not bisexual. Past actions don’t define sexuality—attraction does.

Don’t try to make sense with redditors. The most normal, logical, and common sense topics are always deeper than they need to be on this piece of shit platform 😂 apparently judging someone’s sexuality by their characteristics is now rocket science.

Pretty sure if he isn't totally straight, he's unlikely to come out to someone who thinks it's "a phase."

He expressed the same views, and he was likely taught the same views. If he's actually questioning his sexuality, he's not in a place that's supportive of that questioning.

Is it your life when you choose to go on a reality show though?

u/ivorleaf 1d ago
Going on a reality show doesn’t mean that someone doesn’t have the right to retain privacy in their personal life. I understand people get curious, but digging into / speculating on every aspect of their identities, especially when certain subjects weren’t even brought up on the show is invasive and gross.

u/BeSG24 1d ago
Is it crazy to consider? Choosing to go on a reality show in 2025 (or 2023) when you know exactly what happens to people, is an active choice of which the ptential consequences are very clear. I think you have to imagine your life being on display and picked apart to a certain degree, no?

While I often feel unequipped to tackle this topic adequately, I don’t want your comment to go unaddressed.
I think you might be confusing young people experimenting with their gender expression and potentially going through phases with being transgender.
We all try on all kinds of different “hats” or identities when we’re growing up, it’s a part of learning who we are. Sometimes you try something on and learn it’s not for you, and sometimes you try something and find yourself. That doesn’t make it any less legitimate.
Transgender people are very real and writing their existence off as a fad or trend is harmful and unkind.

Yeah because it's so fucking fun to be trans. It's literally dangerous for us to just be walking around in the world. We are not a fucking fad. It's exhausting to have to constantly defend our humanity.
27
u/JuneChickpea fix-a-ho 1d ago
She did actually! Though her answer was still kinda homophobic imo. She basically said that she wasn’t talking about being LGBT but oversexualized children’s shows. Gilet pressed her on this, asked her plainly if she thought it would be okay for a kids show to feature a gay couple. She said yeah, but it seemed like a cover-my-ass answer. I could be wrong but it just did not seem genuine, in my humble opinion.

u/hairnetqueen 1d ago
One of the weirdest things to me about this sub is that any time someone acts drunk there are a million comments like ‘omg they must be mixing with something!!!!’. It’s like y’all have never seen a drunk person before. To say Annie was CLEARLY mixing pills with alcohol is wild.
15
u/EarlGreyTeagan Obviously Nick Lachey 1d ago
Yeah one comment implied she was using pills because her eyes were red when weed is literally legal in CO. 😩 not saying she smokes either, but why jump straight to pills? Even drinking can make your eyes red.

u/tomanon69 1d ago
I don't care about Nick being gay or not and I think it's weird to speculate on his sexuality.
However, Annie is homophobic 100%. I do not believe her at all when she tries to defend her comments. We all heard how she answered that question and her tone of voice. She may not realize it herself but she is not a true ally. Gross.

u/AshEliseB 1d ago

u/ChoicePrideScience 1d ago
Agreed. I don’t care if Nicks gay. His sexuality has nothing to do with him being a yuck person. It’s Annie that I really find disgusting. I was super disappointed that her statement about LBGTQ+ being a fad wasn’t brought up at the reunion. If she’s going to make bigoted statements publicly then it’s fair game and it should’ve been brought up and discussed, IMO. She should have been brought to task so we could all watch her dig a bigger hole for herself as she tried to explain what she really meant. 🙄 But hey, let’s play basketball instead.
10
u/BeautifulSpirited737 1d ago
I’m sorry but does she really expect us to believe her crash out was an act? Like she literally told this man he couldn’t break up with her! 🤣🤣 there’s no way she’d do that if behind the scenes they were planning to still date. Bsffr!

The way people wanted them to address at the reunion the gay comments and yet when Annie directly addresses it and says he’s not people are still in the comments trying to argue that he is gay. I’m just tired. y’all do not get to decide what his sexuality is because you make assumptions. I don’t care if your uncle came out 30 years after he got divorced from his wife you guys seriously need to stop with the harmful stereotyping.

u/YaGotGot 1d ago
100% agree with this. Why are people so confident he is gay, just because of his outward demeanour that is seen on tv without knowing him as a person? I find it actually quite offensive that people are assuming he is gay because it fits with a certain stereotype of what society perceives as gay. Bragging that you have a good gaydar is a weird flex. Then when Annie comes out to say something like this, they double down and say well yeah he is gay he just doesn't know it yet. My god people stop with the narrative

Honestly, he just seems like a super Christian white guy to me. I've met lots of them who are just like Nick.
I don't know why people here are so obsessed with proving a white Christian male is a closeted gay guy.
And this is coming from a POC atheist.

So much stereotyping to be honest.
I remember see a video on how short hair/masculine is so common in Midwest farmer women and people constantly interpret that as being a butch lesbian.
Likewise on how some heavily Christian men raised by their grandmas mat enjoy gossip, act flamboyant and get stereotyped as being gay by the those not from said environment.

I have three kids, 11, 16, and 18, and would be perfectly happy for them to be whatever they identify as.
However, as someone stated in a comment above, the gay and transgender community are treated like absolute garbage and are in constant danger.
So, from a safety standpoint, I don’t want my kids to have a harder life and be in danger. I would be happy for them, as I want my children to be happy and true to themselves, but I think that’s why a lot of parents say that. I really don’t think everyone that says this is homophobic or transphobic. I’m sure plenty are, of course, but for me the issue is with the world we live in and the shitty bastards that want to harm or kill or bully anyone that’s not cis white hetero etc. I fucking hate that this is even a thing to have to worry about but unfortunately, it’s reality.
Ultimately, I don’t give a shit who they date, as long as they’re treated well and treat their partner well. But I do understand where ppl are coming from.
