Doug Savant Quotes

During my first year on "Melrose Place" (1992), there was a great deal of pressure from the network (Fox TV) for me to out myself as a straight man. The producers of "Melrose Place" (1992) kept telling me I had to say publicly that I was a breeder. They said too many people assumed I was gay. I know the truth of my life, so I didn`t have to play the network game. For three years, I was the spokesperson for the AIDS rides (yearly cycle-thons) in California. I was flattered that people assumed I was gay. To me, that was an affirmation that I was doing my job.
