Louis Tomlinson wants the world to know he isn’t gay. The singer went off on Twitter earlier this week in response to an article penned by Jenn Selby in The Independent. It cites Tomlinson’s donning of a shirt that bears a rainbow-colored Apple logo, with Selby saying this meant Tomlinson had “showed support” for Apple CEO Tim Cook , who recently came out as a homosexual. HOWEVER, this multi-colored logo was used by Apple in the 1980s and 1990s. It has nothing to do with LGBT issues, a fact Tomlinson pointed out to Selby via an angry Twitter message. “@JennSelby The fact that you work for such a ‘credible’ paper and you would talk such rubbish is laughable,” he wrote. “I am in fact straight. Google ‘original apple logo’ and you will see the one printed on my shirt that you reported on. “Trying to look for a promotion? F*cking ridiculous I even have to tweet that sh*t!” The Independent article did seemingly misinterpret the basis behind Tomlinson’s shirt… but it never accused the One Direction singer of being gay. As a result, the handsome young singer has come under fire for reacting so strongly against an allegation that never even existed. Some have accused Tomlinson of homophobia due to the vehement defense of his heterosexuality Then again, talk has persisted for years that Tomlinson and and Harry Styles are actually dating. So it may very well be that Tomlinson has simply grown tired of this chatter and lashed out at what he believed to be another example of a ridiculous rumor. It looks like this was simply multiple examples of miscommunication and misunderstandings and hopefully all involved can move on. 16 Photos of One Direction That Makes Us Wanna Squeeeeaaal! 1. 1D on the Red Carpet Which is your favorite member of One Direction?
