Original Note:
Queerbaiting is a manipulative marketing tactic that hints at a fictional queer character or relationship without actually committing to any actual queer representation.

And yes, that includes celebrities. https://capitalcurrent.ca/queerbait/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Queerbaiting https://augsburgecho.com/2022/12/12/real-people-cant-queerbait/ https://www.vice.com/en/article/g5vkny/how-queerbaiting-became-weaponised-against-real-people
