Untitled edit
According to Notable Names Database, Chakiris is gay. May Wikipedia address/admit that?
- Absolutely only if reliably sourced. If NNDB is anything like the Internet Movie database, it is not reliable.--Stetsonharry (talk) 02:38, 10 November 2008 (UTC)
- I found a source for this. "Now at the age of 76, the out actor sat down with EDGE to talk appearing in musicals during the closeted 1950s." 72.152.136.241 (talk) 20:41, 16 April 2011 (UTC)
- Who is "people"? Only those who'd read this somewhere they considered reliable, or been told by someone they trusted, would know. -- Jack of Oz [Talk] 06:38, 12 December 2012 (UTC)
- The source linked for the "openly gay" mentions nothing what-so-ever about his sexual orientation. Whether it's true or not, that source does not support the assertion. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.5.5.111 (talk) 04:52, 26 December 2012 (UTC)

- We still have nothing in the article to support these categories, so I've boldly removed them. -- Jack of Oz [Talk] 03:44, 3 March 2013 (UTC)
- I noticed that that Chakiris is in Category:Gay Actors, despite there still being no mention of this within the article and no source to support it. I have removed him from that category. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:1700:EA01:1090:A4B5:1120:6EE4:DFD4 (talk) 11:21, 18 August 2018 (UTC)
- Chakiris and Richard Beymer are both gay. (109.156.191.82 (talk) 19:14, 2 December 2018 (UTC))

Photograph edit
Are you sure that's from 2019? He looks awfully young for 87 even if you assume he's dyed his hair and beard. Kostaki mou (talk) 23:55, 18 September 2022 (UTC)
I was wondering that also. But then I found this photo from 2023 when he was 91. I guess he has good genes? https://www.gettyimages.com/detail/news-photo/george-chakiris-attends-the-16th-annual-national-arts-news-photo/1829733983Pascalulu88 (talk) 00:13, 3 February 2024 (UTC)
