Lukas Gage was one of the guests on Today yesterday. The hosts asked him about his career and his rise to fame on shows such as The White Lotus and You.
Gage, 27, revealed he often writes to industry insiders that he admires to express a hope of working with them. He says he began to do this when he was just 12 years old by writing to the casting director of Donnie Darko!
However, the talk then got more personal. Gage was asked about his “phenomenal” hair, which was looking a little shorter and tidier for yesterday’s appearance.
Gage was told the show had celebrity hairstylist Chris Appleton scheduled to appear later this week: “What do you think he would think about your hair?” asked one of the hosts.
“I think the mane needed to be tamed,” quipped Gage, before adding, “I also needed to be tamed.”
The loved-up couple exchanged adorable messages on Instagram.
Gage was then happy to confirm his relationship with the well-known stylist to the stars.
“I feel very happy. And very lucky. And very much in love.”
The hosts then showed a selection of photos of Gage and Appleton together. Some are vacation snaps from Appleton’s Instagram account.
“We have fun together. We go on adventures,” said Gage. “He’s the best.”
The hosts then suggested Gage come back later in the week when Appleton appears and he said “Yeah!”.
It’s unknown how and when Gage and Appleton met. Their relationship first became public last month. They both shared photos from a vacation trip to Mexico.
Then, on March 8th, the two men posed together on the red carpet at a Vanity Fair event.
Last week, Appleton posted several photos of him and Gage to Instagram, calling him “The apple of my eye.”
Gage and Quinto’s unapologetically queer new movie starts with a “happy ending” and only gets wilder from there.

They’re both coming off like narcissists and clout chasers, using each other for press and validation. Both were single just a few months ago. I’m fine with “sharing your love”. But these extreme public declarations and social media propping after a couple months is giving cringe.
they’re just sharing their love for each other, which nearly every couple does on a platform. How many times do we hear a spouse publicly declare their love for their wife/husband? There’s no difference. They haven’t even kissed, shown pictures of them holding hands, or even publicly said they’re a couple and you already feel it’s “cringe”
The gay community has been sniffing LG’s ass for quite a while now. They might has well take advantage of the limelight now that they seem to have embraced it.
Love321, they’ve literally been dating for a few months. Yet, they’re on multiple TV shows talking about being “in love”. They’re public figures. They’re aware it’s gonna get them attention and headlines. So, it’s not like “any normal couple”. Appleton in particular seems like he’s been desperate to couple with a public figure for a long time.
I certainly don’t want to see public figures in sometimes years long same-sex relationships/commitments hide it or be evasive about it like we still continue to see. But there’s no doubt there’s some rather obvious clout-chasing/searching for public validation and for what has been a really, really short ass relationship.
Go back under your rock, you tired old queen. Finally, two HOT men are talking about their love and their relationship on national tv and you want to complain? Whatever. Your post reeks of jealousy.
I’m glad he’s being open about it now. I remember when Chris Appleton first posted about their relationship – he seemed very happy and in love. Lukas, meanwhile, would only say “you can think that if you want” when asked if they were together. I don’t know their private life, but if I was in a relationship with someone and they said something that glib when people asked about us, I don’t know if I’d be in that relationship much longer…
Mark my words: Lukas is only pretending to be gay for media attention. We all know how a sprinkling of fairy dust lends sparkle to an emerging talent! These dudes are just leveraging gay privilege to underwrite their bid at fame and fortune!
It’s sad that he needed to be in a relationship to confirm the worst kept secret in Hollywood that he’s gay. Too bad he didn’t have the confidence or self esteem to declare it as a single man. And why now? Prob bc he was on the cusp of being cancelled bc he was accused of queer baiting. His move was completely self serving and he could care less about the lgbtq community
Oh please. How about he came out on his own terms. Nothing wrong with that. What is sad is that a bunch of tired old queens use this space to express opinions that, quite frankly, are laughable.
