Is Luke James Gay?
No, Luke James is not gay, and the recent rumors are unfounded.
The rumors started because Luke James' character in the show The Chi dated and kissed a trans woman who transgender model Jasmine Davis plays. Because of who Davis is and because James kissed her without hesitation, many fans began to wonder if James was gay.

Many people in the forums have come to accept that James is gay and talk about him as such, although he isn't gay and has had a long history of dating women. However, his acting on screen convinced many people that he was gay.
A quick look at the forums will have people simultaneously deriding James, celebrating his acting, calling him slurs, and everything in between. The rumors have spread so far that many media outlets are talking about his sexuality.
On the other hand, the singer has not mentioned or brought to light anything about his sexuality that he hasn't previously talked about in interviews or his music. He hasn't even talked about the rumors, and one wonders if he is aware of them.
Details On Luke James Sexuality And Gender
Luke James has presented himself as heterosexual since the beginning of his career.
In his music and lyrics, he is singing to women precisely what he wants to do to these women. He presents his heterosexuality, not aggressively, but as expected, in a sexually charged R&B song.

The accusations of his homosexuality don't have any basis on other aspects of his life besides the show The Chi. Before appearing in the show, James only ever acted as a straight black man. Even in the show, he is shown to be pretty straight or at least straight-passing.
The LGBT identity is not a big part of the show, as it is mostly about life in Chicago and its seedier elements presented in all the drama and pomp that a television series brings.
Who Is He Dating?
Luke James is currently single and not dating anyone.
However, the R&B star has had a reasonably public dating history. His two most public relationships were with Kim Gringas and Jessie J.
He dated Gringas, a backup dancer for Beyonce, in 2014. It is speculated that the two met on tour while James was opening for Beyonce.
The romance was short-lived as they only dated for six months. Following his relationship with Gringas, he began dating British pop star Jessie J for almost a year.
Their relationship ended as Jessie doubted that James was using her to fuel his career. After their relationship ended, Jessie J went on a lengthy Twitter rant.
They may not get back together anytime soon, but the pair seems to have rekindled some friends as they performed together a couple of times, with 2018's I'll be there being the most recent.
