An amazing actor, singer, and host, Neil Patrick Harris is a multiple times award winner for his brilliant personality. However, despite being so renowned, the 50-year-old star faced much backlash for innocently revealing that he has a crush on the Disney icon,Nick Jonas.
Appearing onThe Wendy Williams Showin 2015, when Harris was asked who his celebrity crush was, he most honestly responded by taking the then-underage Disney icon’s name, adding,
“And he was really good-looking before it was kind of allowed to think he was good-looking, which was a bit of a problem. You kinda had to wait until he turned to be, you know, 19 to 20.”
Since being gay at that time was not common, Harris faced much backlash as his feelings for Nick Jonas were considered‘inappropriate’, judging how the singer was a minor at the time. However, as the video resurfaced recently, several fans have been standing up to defend theHow I Met Your Motherstar, claiming its‘double standards’to call him out for honestly revealing who he liked.
