Rowling confirms Dumbledore was GAY!

Source - Yahoo News

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."

Dumbledore's love, she observed, was his "great tragedy."

Well, but in this instance, it is the sexual trait of the person she was talking about

So whats Hagrid then.. zoophile ??

r u sure the source is authentic?

It is by an AP National Writer, featuring on nearly every news website from the Washington Post to minor ones.

Oh Really! Who cares

Well this wont change my opinion about Dumbledore any bit.

Ha ha ha !! I guess she wanted to keep a smaller (age wise) audience in view.

~snipped~

^^ Why are you having tension man? Getting angry?

yeah. the most noble, the greatest character of the series was dumbledore or Jo ne kya kiya uske sath. wat will the children learn????

fun2sh please change ur location it messes the entire page ....

Dumbledor was not the greatest character. He was a fool....

I would say serius was. Everyone else seemed too smart at one point and too foolish at another point. Only serius remained the same till the end.

lol

bt y is it no going to next line. one time some has written that "the name of locaction is so big that it would not fit here so i m not writtin it." it used to goto next line. why is mine not goin to next line. any forum bug??

Dumbledor was not the greatest character. He was a fool....

I would say serius was

the greatest in my opinion was Severus Snape..yes the most hated villain in the end becomes a hero....the greatest Snape who was a Spy of Dumbledore ...and he had a mission in life to save his love (Lily Potter)'s only child HARRY

three cheers to Snape

^^ Snape is another story. His character was made great. Serius is great :-D

By the way
@ fun2sh, try adding a space in your location mane. Maybe the new word will move to next line.

Did'nt Hagrid mention that his dad was a "Tiny" guy, so how the hell did he get it on with a 20-foot giantess!!!!!!!!!

He died, didn't he?

Just came to my mind...
If harry knew that his HeadMaster was G@y he would have never named his son albus ..... hehe

What about Dumbledore and prof Minerva McGonagall?
I just thought they were in love with each other in Harry potter and the Goblet of fire

K

^^ There wasn't any love between them. They just respected each other. btw are you talking about GoF book or movie?

A

GOF movie

K

^^ Then i think you must've deduced the above conclusion based on the fact that dumbledore and mcgonagall danced together at the yule ball. That's utter bullshit as they never did in the book. In the book, dumbledore danced with madam maxime. You shouldn't really trust what you see in those movies. Most often than not the stuff in the movies is changed from what really happened in the book.

Movies suck (It's HP movies I am talking about.... take a look at the godfather....)
