It is obvious that the gay rumors shimmer when the man is not in the dating relationship. Brendan is a gay supporter and posts on his social sites in favor of gay community. In September 2014, he made a tweet supporting LGBT community along with a song dedicated to them. In this context, he is also assumed as gay because he had no any romantic encounter with a lady in the past. But it is not veracious that he is a gay only by his support towards gay.
