NPH tells Out Magazine that Danny Roberts from "The Real World" was an early role model...

Here is the Out Magazine cover of Neil Patrick Harris one of his quotes that I found interesting and sweet:
The first face that empowered me was Danny Roberts from "The Real World: New Orleans." I think before him I'd never seen anyone wear [homosexuality] so comfortably. He was around my age. I could look to him as a role model -- if you could say that, even though he was on a reality show. He represented a way that I could behave and stand tall comfortably without being an overt advocate and without being someone hiding in the shadows. I liked that.



Danny Roberts has been great about touring the country and talking with people about his sexuality and the importance of tolerance. Neil picked a great role model.
