\'X Factor\'s Austin denies gay rumours
Quote:
X Factor star Austin Drage has spoken out about his sexuality after an internet site described him as 'openly gay'.
Gay website DNA reportedly posted topless modelling pictures of Austin alongside profile information which sparked rumours about the aspiring singer's personal life.
Drage's page read: "Multimedia star from the UK, Austin Drage appeared in the Guy Ritchie movie Snatch as well as on TV in Casualty and The Bill. Openly gay, his main love is music. And he appeared for a time as part of the band 5Boyz."
However, speaking to the Daily Star, Austin insisted: "I am sorry to disappoint but I am not gay. But I am very flattered to have a gay fanbase. And I appreciate all the support I have been getting while on X Factor."
The 22-year-old's voice coach David Gregory added: "I started coaching Austin from the age of 12. I explicitly refute those accusations about Austin being gay. Austin confided in me with everything. He never said anything about being gay."
