Is cyrus gay in scandal

Olivia Pope and Associates staged a high-stakes gay marriage between Cyrus Beene (Jeff Perry) and his escort boy toy, Michael (Matthew Del Negro), and tons of Gladiator-style drama ensued. Tonight's Scandal showed us what would have happened to OPA and co. First, after losing the election, Fitz left Mellie Bellamy Young pretty quickly and flew to California to propose to Liv, and suddenly they were getting married in a lavish ceremony. Fitz got his own news show, and their relationship quickly started to fall apart.

You weren’t the only one kept in the dark about Cyrus Beene’s sexuality on “Scandal.” Jeff Perry, who plays the series’ Machiavellian White House Chief of Staff, didn’t know his. By Melissa Locker. Scandal is filled with complex characters who make shocking choices on a weekly basis. Perry, for his part, loves it.

Here's a bit of background: After his husband James was killed, Cyrus turned to a gay prostitute, Michael (Matthew Del Negro), for companionship and really hot sex. The relationship came to. Thursday's episode of "Scandal" proved to be an interesting one as Cyrus Beene Jeff Perry finally tied the knot with his partner Michael. After some leaked photos of Michael with another man were released, Olivia Pope Kerry Washington wastes no time in doing some damage control. She talks to Cyrus about his on and off again relationship with Michael, saying that the two should get married at the White House as soon as possible.

On the one hand, Cyrus and James are obviously not the first well-written gay couple on television. But they are different. Cyrus is, for one, a villain of sorts. He’s the White House Chief. They will become sort of drag-ish, predictable and mundane. There is no element of surprise in the plot and we kind of know how the characters will respond and react. Every single season, they increase the thrill, suspense and plot twist.
