When Food Network&#;s Secrets of a Restaurant Chef actor Anne Burrell&#;s colleague Ted Allen mentioned meeting Burrell&#;s girlfriend on the &#;Derek and Romaine&#; exhibit last week, some gasped in horror and shock — But Anne Burrell isn&#;t out! What has he done?

Anne Burrell herself, however, was not one of the gaspers and her shock was limited to wondering why Allen&#;s comment was being interpreted as an &#;outing.&#; Her publicist told The New York Post: &#;Anne does not feel she was outed. She has made no confidential of her relationship [with a woman]. It is no covert in the culinary world.&#;

In The Huffington Post,SiriusXM radio host Michelangelo Signorile noted: &#;Chalk it up to progress that some celebrities are now embarrassed to be thought of as having been in the closet, which increasingly seems like a relic from the last century (even as it still endures mightily). More and more gay, lesbian and bisexual actors, and TV and media personalities, don&#;t want to be associated with the often laughable and torturous subterfuge of it.&#;
