Luke Macfarlane opens up about working with former Hallmark homophobe Candace Cameron Bure
Queerty, you know that we’re fond of hunky, out Bros star Luke Macfarlane, and we especially love the fact that he has starred in over a dozen Hallmark Channel movies—where, yes, he frequently plays straight.Though the network has come a long way in being more inclusive to LGBTQ+ stories—especially during the holidays—there’s just something to the idea of smoking hot gay stud essentially “infiltrating” one of the most heteronormative subgenres!In any event, it’s a gig that’s essentially made Macfarlane the King Of Christmas.
So it’s fitting that, over the holidays, the actor appeared as a special guest on the Tosh Show podcast, where he gave a particularly juicy interview to host and comedian Daniel Tosh.Subscribe to our daily newsletter for a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.(Remember Daniel Tosh, by the way?
For years he hosted Comedy Central’s Tosh.0, where he mostly stood in front of a green screen and made snarky comments about internet videos, and he was… divisive, to say the least.)As it turns out, Tosh is a major Hallmark movie fan, so he was positively giddy to have a Hallmark all-star like Macfarlane on the show.
And, in turn, the host’s clear reverence for the genre seemed to put the actor at ease, meaning he had no issue spilling some piping hot cocoa holiday movie tea.For instance, did you know that Macfarlane’s making bank from these?
