While he’s never actually confirmed (or denied) his sexual identity one way or the other, Gil is on a mission to clear the air once and for all.
After being romantically linked to actor Eddie Murphy on more than one occasion, he’s now decided to speak out about those “pesky” gay rumors.
Details below…
Hip Hollywood’s Kevin Frazier recently interviewed Johnny Gill and blatantly inquired about the relationship rumors concerning he and the popular A-List actor, asking:
“What do you think about the rumors about you and Eddie Murphy having a relationship and what does Eddie say about it?”
Johnny threw everybody in the mix in his response…
They said it about Oprah and Gayle.
They said it about Will [Smith] and Duane Martin, so I guess we fit in the group of… because we’ve always been tight…
Eddie could care less about it… and Eddie’s always been Eddie and anybody that knows Eddie knows Eddie lives Eddie’s life and he will look at you straight up and tell you, “Aye keep messing with me and I’ll hit you with my wallet and knock you out and keep it rocking!”
And while his answer didn’t necessarily quell any rumors about him or his sexual preference, Gill, 46, who reportedly dated R&B singer Stacey Lattisaw when he was 15-years-old, continued in his quest to clear the air.
“I mean, you gotta remember, before there was Twitter, and Facebook, and all this other stuff, you know there was just the rag magazines. Whatever they say it was like that was the truth. People believe whatever it was,” he said. “But I don’t feel as bad anymore, because when I go on the Internet everybody’s gay … I’ve just always been a very private person.”
He continued…
“Let me make sure we are clear on something. Whether it’s being called gay, accused of being gay, accused of a thief, accused of being anything or somebody’s lying [about] you and saying something about you that’s not true, it just doesn’t feel good … I have such compassion for gay people now more than ever. Just simply because in some odd way I’ve been able to walk in their shoes or to see … how they feel and how people treat them and deal with them because of their sexuality.”
Gill also revealed to Frazier that he went so far as to take a lie detector test to PROVE to his girlfriend that he wasn’t romantically linked to his good friend Eddie Murphy because she had been hearing it for years as well.
“I’m going to tell you guys something off the record that I know my girlfriend probably won’t be happy with me for saying this, to talk about this. But I’m going to say it. When we first got together – we’ve been together for five years – there was so much stuff floating around why are you dating this guy, this guy, he’s gay, blah, blah, blah, Eddie Murphy.
All this stuff is going on and I’m like, ‘Do you believe it?’ She says, ‘No, I just hear everybody just keeps saying,’ and I said, ‘Let me tell you something. Here’s what we are going to do…’ Woke up, we got the yellow pages, and you know, I mean, that was five years ago … So, we called this guy, he brought out his machine, strapped down to take a lie detector test.
I wrote down questions, I made her write down questions … When the guy called back with the results and we both laying there in the bed. Tears came down … I would never want to lay next to someone that might even remotely have any doubt or question of who I am.” (FULL ARTICLE)
Now I don’t know about you… but er ummm…. a lie detector to PROVE you’re not gay? If his lady is/was that adamant about him proving his sexuality to her, I think she already knew the answer.
What do you think about Gil’s recent “revelations”?

Translation= "we fck from time to time.our relationship is like our booties…Open
I wonder who’s the pitcher/catcher? Eddie looks like he can take some mean pecker!
Dead…LOL!
got me saying my my my my my my my …… in my best johnnie botty man voice
I a’int entertaining the idea if sharing a bed or anything else with someone who has to prove their sexuality/sexual preference by a lie detector test…let’s face it, it is usually too damn late by the time the results come in.
how in the world did those rumors get started in the first place? was it because he friends with Eddie? is so that’s a shame – we all know that Eddie was busted with a he/she to each their own but Johnny comes across as all Man – I don’t think he going to get pass the gay rumors – someone is going to keep that rumor alive behind his back
I agree. I never believed the rumors either and it’s a shame they won’t let it rest.
They started because of his friendship with Eddie. After Eddie got outed any one seen with him was his suspected boyfriend
IF SO that’s a shame that having a good friend makes a man gay IS what I WANTED TO SAY IN Johnny case is how it seems how many gay friends do you have? just because they are gay it makes you gay? not saying Eddie is gay – I’m not all up in the man business but if he is and Johnny so what who really cares – life goes on
I think it is just shameful that whenever two black males are friends in the entertainment business everyone labels them as gay. Can’t men just enjoy each others company without the wives and girlfriends without being labeled gay?
…that seems to be the standard these days. As he said in his interview, everyone is gay now. Damn, remember back in the day when we only knew that someone famous was a damn good actor/singer/model. Now we need and feel entitled to know everything about them….from what they had for breakfast to when they shitted it out. It kind of takes the mystery out of it and makes them, I guess normal. But I guess I live for the gossip/drama just like everyone else who frequents sites such as this. Just makes you realize that the whole rich and famous thing a’int for everybody.
In this day and age why in the world does he even have to reply to such nonsense? I for one don’t care who anyone lays up with, not my business, and, every person has a right to love whomever they choose.
These sorts of rumors seem to come out of jealousy and bitter people who can’t get a man or woman and keep them more than anything else, although, the only thing I would tell him is lose that silly nose ring, you are way to old for that nonsense.
Johnny, c’mon son!!! I mean got damn!!! He is trying to put these wildfire rumors out, but look at the pictures above of this nigga! This is not Saturday Night Fever! How many niggas rock a button down shirt like J’lo’s infamous Grammy dress?!! I mean if he is, I don’t give a shit, it won’t change the fact that "Can You Stand The Rain", "Boys To Men", "Rub You The Right Way", "My, My, My" are still classic joints…..wait, pause…there is a hint of…aww fuck it.
He’s a cum catcher!! BUT ITS OKAY!!! LIVE YOUR LIFE!
Still didnt really answer the question. Buttboy
If he straight then that Nicki real her on the article below .
I look at Johnny Gill the same way I did Little Richard..who you trying to fool? I never checked for Johnny so g’head and admit you damn near diabetic behind all that sugar you have in you and keep making love songs no one takes seriously…
I dont know if the man is gay or not not but that outfit sure is…just look at that belt!
Right. Quite "Y-M-C-A"-ish.
If you watched the episode of Unsung with Mr. Gil, he addressed specifically addressed the issue by saying that he is and has always been a heterosexual man.
This negro gave an encyclopedia as his response and still didnt say, No I’m not gay. GTFOOH.. He sweeter than a bucket of cotton candy. But to each his own,, just man up to it. No big deal. If you like tossing Eddie’s salad then you like tossing salad. Stop faking.
Let’s talk about how I don’t give a damn if he is gay or not-as long as he can keep hitting those notes and singing his face off the way he does, that ain’t my issue. Save the gay rumors for those auto-tune dudes and let our real artists get their shine, plz and ty.
Yep, what you said. Really doesn’t matter…that boy can saannngggg!
When he’s not yelling…ugh.
He might not be gay, but in that pic with him and Ed-wina, they look happier than 4 sissy’s locked in a phonebooth
Did u just call him..pause..EDWINA?LMAOOOO!
a phonebooth….lol..o my goodness, that was funny
Well gay or str8 I don’t care now these days people choose what they want.And besides why answer question with sueing someone cause seems he be doing that all his life.
Constantly sticking successful black people in unflattering categories.
Calling tall black women ….men. Calling short black men gay. Stop drinking the haterade. Real talk.
This is the first I hear rumors of Johnnie bei
ng gay. His response-suspect!
I think it was because they hang out together and Eddie was caught with that prostitute that turned out to be a transgender years back!
People have let the rumors rest. The news guy is the one brought it up: I guess he didn’t have anything else to talk about. BUT, notice: he didn’t deny that Eddie and he didn’t have a sexual relationship. Moreover, he said that he keeps his private life private.
That’s Johnnie’s business.. Who gives a FUCK REALLY
Black people see a good-looking sensual man WITH REAL TALENT and immediately want to call him gay. They trying to know more about his business than HE does! What woman wouldn’t wouldn’t jump at the chance to be with Johnnie Gill? You lying if you say you wouldn’t! They just hatin’ cause they know it’ll never happen!
You are QUITE delusional dearie..there are many women who do not want Johnny..gay or straight..his color has nothing to do with it..there are PLENTY of white folks that put the gay radar on full scream as well..
Why couldn’t he just say No, I am not gay. He seemed to put a lot of time shuffling around the block.
This is just as bad as Kordell telling his team mates you better watch your wives and girlfriends.What!
I personally haven’t seen people work so hard to prove that they are straight or gay. That is ridiculous.
But for his girlfriend go through with giving him the lie detector test….she has some doubt herself…smh
Why is his shirt always unbuttoned showing his taco meat. In the pic of him an Eddie, they got that look on their face like… Damn i hope nobody saw us hunching in the restroom
He could possibly be telling the truth. It also could be that he really don’t consider himself being gay if he is the giver. Also I heard from a very reliable source who saw him and Tyler Perry at a club. Tyler had a beard with him who stood between him and Johnny. Tyler would whisper something to the beard and then the beard would whisper to Johnny. This went on for over 30 min. People can change but I am like this if you lived the life don’t make comments just live your new life as a straight man because there are witnesses out there who just not trying to get paper for it. IJS
Its more than just the friendship with Eddie Murphy. Michael Bivens was the first to question his sexuality. Him living in Eddie Murphy’s guest house for 4 years sure didn’t help things…
Yeeeeaaaaahhh….
To all the women leaving comments about Eddie and Johnny being together, honey don’t go around calling the Kettle black when YOU may have hidden black dark shit in your own kitchen. Meaning, you women should probably look at your own men, that is, if y’all have any…
If they are together the problem I would have with them is being involved with women and not saying anything.
I personally don’t like liers.
