The 34-year-old comedian, who hosts SNL this weekend, told the audience in the special premiering today: "I had a secret. One that I kept from my father, my mother, my family, my friends, and you. Professionally, personally. And the secret is that I’m gay.” After a long silence, Carmichael's revelation was met with applause to the comedian's relief.
