Jane Lynch: Ellen Helped Me Come Out of the Closet

Jane Lynch is thanking Ellen Degeneres for helping her to come out of the closet! The Glee star appeared on her talk show yesterday to promote the upcoming season, and to show her gratitude for help in telling the world she’s gay!

Jane told Ellen, "I was more closeted in my life when I was younger.” She added, “I used to lay in bed at night and say, ‘How will I come out or won’t I come out.’

"It made it so much easier for me when you [came out]," said Lynch. Lynch then mentioned how much harder it would have been if she were a Julia Roberts-type actor. In response, Ellen asked, "So you're saying Julia Roberts is gay?"

"That's what I'm saying," Lynch joked. Check out the hilarious interview below!
