NEW YORK — Harry Potter fans, the rumors are true: Albus Dumbledore, master wizard and Headmaster of Hogwarts, is gay.

J.K. Rowling, author of the mega-selling fantasy series that ended last summer, outed the beloved character Friday night while appearing before a full house at Carnegie Hall. After reading briefly from the final book, "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows," she took questions from audience members.

She was asked by one young fan whether Dumbledore finds "true love."

"Dumbledore is gay," the author responded to gasps and applause.

She then explained that Dumbledore was smitten with rival Gellert Grindelwald, whom he defeated long ago in a battle between good and bad wizards. "Falling in love can blind us to an extent," Rowling said of Dumbledore's feelings, adding that Dumbledore was "horribly, terribly let down."

There is a theory (not mine) that good and evil is all in perspective. That one person’s good is another person’s evil.

Ah, that explains it! Since he’s a coprophile, it makes sense that his name is a play on “Dump Adore”.

Get a clue, America,please. I like you, but Americans have never understood the dry sarcastic/ironic British sense of humour.

Oh, you mean the men-dressing-up-like-women humor? Yeah, it's hysterical. So dry. So sarcastic. And so painfully trite.

In this day and age, there's absolutely nothing funny about sodomy.

Well, I like Harry Potter and Brits in general but the assumption that she is not joking is the one that puts her in the best light.

I mean she's either serious and a mere twit.

Or, she's playing headgames with the child asking her the question and that makes her a complete ass.

Considering she is now a billionaire, I doubt her money will dry up soon.

The Prince of this World always makes sure that his most faithful disciples do well--in this world...

Thank You. I agree. I am still trying to get over my anger over this information
