In an interview with GQ Australia, Taylor was asked if Gus and Lance, who are both gay, hit on him during their dinner.
"It's not a coincidence that there was a writer, a director and an actor at dinner," Taylor told the magazine (via MTV News). "No, definitely not. I think they know I'm straight. But they're great guys. They're a lot of fun."
GQ Austalia has since apologized for the question and it looks like we now know why Taylor had that meeting!
