Derenle speaks on gay rumors and his ideal woman

Is Derenle Gay?

    I think people believe what they want to believe.

But a lot of people believe you are. And to prove them right, a picture of you Charley Boy went viral on the internet recently.

    I don’t read the news, I make the news. The thing is people tend to look for loopholes when they see you doing well. And since people feel I’m feminine in nature, then they think I’m gay. But the truth is I don’t really care about what people say because I’m not fashioned according to what the society expects. And also I think for my personality, if I were gay, the news would have grown from speculations and would have been in people’s face.
    On the part of Charley Boy and me, I was not expecting the paparazzi that came with the picture.

Peter and Paul already have kids; and we all know their heartthrobs. Can you tell us the one in your life? Why are you people always forcing me to come to the public?
I don’t want to be a celebrity and I am not one of them. I don’t sing, dance or act. I love where I am now (hiding myself) and if I love to do that, how do you expect me to introduce the lady I am dating? Back to your question, I have somebody, yes but I won’t tell you her name.
