Malakar: 'I'm a good gay best friend'

Sanjaya Malakar has dismissed speculation that he is gay, despite admitting that he would make a "good gay best friend".

The former American Idol finalist opened up about his sexuality to rumoured love-interest Holly Montag during a chat on last night's I'm A Celebrity....

"A lot of people want me to be their gay best friend and I make a really good gay best friend, but I don’t like guys, so it confuses people," he explained.

"I connect with gay people really well because we understand each other. I’m like, 'Hey!' and they’re like, 'Oh, hey!' and I’m like, 'No, but I’ll hang out with you'."

The 19-year-old went on to admit that he was "not that classic, stereotypical macho guy" because of his upbringing, adding: "I was raised by women so I kind of have a connection with my feminine side.

"But, I’m attracted to women so it’s like, people like to kind of throw that at me, like, 'Oh, you must be gay' but I’m like, 'Whatever, gay people are awesome'."

Their discussion was prompted by fellow contestant Janice Dickinson suggesting that Malakar wear her eyeliner.
