PopUps: Taylor Lautner Parties With Gay Model at W. Hollywood Clubs

It looks like "Twilight" hunk Taylor Lautner had a big gay night out last week, which only fueled the longtime rumors that the actor is gay.
The rumors started to fly after out Andrew Christian model Murray Swanby posted a photo of himself and Lautner on Instagram with the caption:
Ugh @official_taylorlautner #taylorlautner.. I've never been more #attracted to someone in my life.. #husbands??! Hahaha half kidding #hotstraightguy #twilight #hotguys #feck #TouchThursdaysFollow
The pic was taken on Dec. 4 around 8 p.m. at one of the hottest gay clubs in West Hollywood, the Abbey, according to Radar Online.
The website reports that after Lautner, 22, left the Abbey, he went next door to Mother Lode, which happened to be the same club where "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" and "Vanderpump Rules" star Lisa Vanderpump was singing karaoke.
"Taylor only stayed at Mother Lode for a half-hour, but seemed to be having a blast! It is a fun gay bar with super strong drinks and he was in the back with two friends who looked to be very close by their interactions," a source who was at Mother Lode during Lautner's visit told Radar Online. "Taylor was definitely trying to be incognito it looked like, but everyone there was staring at him. I think he left because people kept asking him for photos with him and he declined."
The source also told Radar Online that this was not that first time the act has been spotted at gay clubs in Los Angeles and that the source's friends have "seen him out in the past year on other occasions."
Nevertheless, Lautner has always denied the gay rumors and has been linked to dating A-list celebs like Taylor Swift. Even Swanby came to the actor's defense:
"If Taylor Lautner was coming out, I would have taken him home Thursday night," he wrote on Facebook and Twitter, Gay Star News points out.
