Why Do People Think Jonah Hill Is Gay?

There’s typically a reason behind the rumor, even if it may sometimes be a stretch. Here are two main points people make when questioning Jonah Hill’s sexuality.

His Heartfelt Apology To The Gay Community

Jonah Hill is more than just a masterful comedian; he’s also a staunch LGBTQ ally. He’s voiced his support for the LGBTQ community on many occasions, which pushed him to go on live television and apologize when he mistakenly used a gay slur against an aggressive paparazzo.

While most celebrities would have typed out an apology on their iPhone notes app and posted it on Twitter, Hill wanted to take things further. So, he appeared on The Tonight Show and explained his actions in arguably the most genuine celebrity apology we’ve ever seen.

Jonah Hill talked about how the paparazzi in question “hurled insults at him and his family,” which he described as genuinely hurtful. As a result, he wanted to “think of the harshest thing he could say” at the moment. But, unfortunately, that was a gay slur.

However, his acknowledgment and understanding of how the slur can hurt people made folks wonder if he’s had any personal experience with it.

His Saturday Night Live Performance

Comedians are no stranger to playing absurd characters in unbelievable situations, but sometimes audiences can confuse a caricature with the actor themselves. In 2013, Jonah Hill played himself on a Saturday Night Live skit alongside Andy Samberg. In it, he quietly called his co-star for a chat over some coffee.

Over this quick rendezvous, Jonah confessed to “dating Andy’s dad”. This admission was accompanied by a humorous montage of Hill passionately kissing Jim Downey, who was playing Samberg’s dad.

Jonah Hill’s Dating History

Celebrities don’t usually have to come out for fans to recognize them as gay or otherwise, often because these high-profile individuals are almost always caught out in public with a lover. So, who are some of the people Jonah Hill has dated over the years?

• Jordan Klein (2009-2011): Jordan Klein was Hill’s non-celebrity high school sweetheart. They were reported to be on the way to marriage before breaking things off.
• Ali Hoffman (2011-2012): Shortly after this split from his ex-girlfriend, Jonah Hill started dating Dustin Hoffman’s daughter, Ali.
• Alana Haim (2012): Jonah Hill was rumored to be dating Alana Haim after being seen together multiple times. Some have speculated that the two called it quits over Alana’s tight schedule.
• Isabelle McNally (2013-2014): Bates Motel and House of Cards actress Isabelle McNally was in an exclusive relationship with Jonah for a few months. Unfortunately, this was relatively short-lived.

After his last few relationships with fellow celebrities, Jonah dated a string of non-famous individuals. At the time of writing, he’s reported to be in a relationship with Sarah Brady.

So, Is Jonah Hill Gay? Final Thoughts

No, Jonah Hill is not gay. Over the years, he’s been seen dating numerous women, and his roster of romances is distinctly devoid of any male lovers. Furthermore, he’s never come out and talked about his sexuality in any way that’s hinted at him being gay or even bisexual.

Most rumors revolve around his stance as an LGBTQ ally or his comedic performances depicting him in romantic situations with other men. However, neither can be taken as hard evidence that Mr. Hill is anything but straight.
