SPOILER ALERT! Glee has played a pivotal role in shaping a gay character with Kurt Hummel and has really helped create a good role model for teens struggling with their sexuality and helping with gay acceptance in its story lines. That role was then assisted with the addition of Kurt’s first real love interest in Blaine played by Darren Criss. However, the newest Glee spoiler is causing all of us to turn our head and get a little confused, and we’re not the only ones.
According to a Glee source, the character of Blaine is about to have an intimate encounter with someone of the opposite sex. This interaction causes Blaine to have second thoughts about his sexuality and begins to wonder if he swings both ways. I am going to go on the record in saying WTF!?!?
I’m sorry but is that plot really struggling so bad that we need to start switching up the sexualities of some of our characters?
IMHO, I think this potential plot shift is completely uneccessary. This new insert changes the character of Blaine completely. Blaine was the one who helped Kurt come to terms with his sexuality and pronounced it so loudly in a love song in a GAP on last week’s episode. So why the change? I have no idea. What are your thoughts on the newest Glee spoiler?
UPDATE:
Creator, Ryan Murphy hit the web this morning to clear up the speculation of the Glee spoiler stating this in an official email:
“Blaine is NOT bi. He is gay, and will always be gay. I think it’s very important to young kids that they know this character is one of them.”

Bullcrap. I can already see the right-wingers saying how this shows just how confused gay people are – even the most confidently gay man realises he should in fact be banging women and not leading other young vulnerable confused males astray. Praise Jeebus!…… I hope this is only a rumour.

the storyline only lasts one episode though, it’s not a multi-episode arc, so the plotline is resolved by the end of the episode. Blaine probably watches Rachel sing and thinks he gets turned on, but by the end of the episode they figure out its all just a silly misunderstanding or something like that

=)) Tell me I’m crazy but, it really happened sometimes that I thought I feel for girl (in some cases) too so I don’t surprise with that confuse thing. But hey, for Blaine?! =)) It’s gonna be a big confused thing ever on Glee! =))
Anyway, suddenly I start to expect for the appearance of Anne Hathaway in Glee at this point! :) Maybe she can pull Kurt and Blaine closer somehow, not just BFFs like now! :)

OMG, thank you Ryan Murphy. That would have been THE worst possible “plot twist” for Glee, ever!

They’re drunk playing spin the bottle and him and Rachel kiss.

Have they lost their senses, Blaine has expressed his 110% unconfusion and proudness of his sexuality now to be reverted ? And he already had an upclose and personal with Rachel and told her where to go .. as again, he was 110% GAY … changing it now would just be stupid!
