He was a contributing editor for The Advocate, a national LGBT news magazine, interviewing celebrities for the regular "A-List" column, including George Clooney, Zac Efron, and Tina Fey. He also reviewed New York theater for the "Seat Filler" column on Advocate.com.[5][6][2]
Voss was promoted to editor-in-chief of the New York-based LGBT weekly HX magazine in December 2006.[7][8] He stepped down from the position in September 2008 after nearly four years with the now-defunct publication to pursue freelance writing opportunities.[9]
Voss's 2008 "Big Gay Following" interview with Adrien Brody for The Advocate sparked mild controversy: While some readers felt the questions were inappropriate, others felt Brody lacked a sense of humor.[15][16][17][18]
Chris Evans famously "outed" his younger brother, actor Scott Evans, in a January 2009 Advocate interview with Voss.[19][20]
Voss's August 2008 interview with Lady Gaga for HX was the pop star's first cover story and first interview in which she publicly discussed her bisexuality.[21][22][23]
After coming out publicly as gay in 2017, actor Haaz Sleiman criticized Voss for previously asking about his sexuality in a 2009 Advocate interview, recalling that he had not been prepared to answer personal questions. Voss apologized for the “unfortunate miscommunication” in a NewNowNext post, explaining, “When writing for LGBT publications, I respectfully interview LGBT people, straight people, and those who choose not to identify publicly. But because these celebrities are speaking to LGBT press, I do offer them an opportunity to identify if they so choose, with the end goal of celebrating and normalizing all sexual identities.”[24][25]
Voss is a member of GALECA, the Society of LGBTQ Entertainment Critics.[26] He has been a repeat guest at the monthly artists’ forum Dead Darlings in New York City.[27][28][29]
