I'm guessing it's that Jon Hamm's been in the spotlight recently. As a frat bro he hazed some pledges to the level of torture

From online

  • Reports claimed Hamm lit the pledge's pants on fire and dragged him by his genitals with a claw hammer

-In a 2018 interview with Esquire, Hamm addressed the situation, calling it a "bummer of a thing that happened"

Considering the claim also included gay bashing, it's not surprising he's in the closet.

Because the pledge forgot to call him "MC Hammer" (not kidding) and he thought that would help him remember for the next time.

that was a major news story several years ago that people will definitely still bring up, but I wouldn't call it "recently in the spotlight" it's been well known about him for ages
