Shut the f**k up

Ellen Page...

...can you please shut the f**k up!!!

Matt Damon said...“Whether you’re straight or gay, people shouldn’t know anything about your sexuality......”

Here's what she had to say about that...

“He doesn’t have a point because he related it to sexuality. Heterosexual actors and actresses do not have to go to great lengths to hide their sexuality. Yes, of course, keep your private life private. Protect yourself. Have boundaries. When you’re a public person, you need to think about your safety. But if it’s in relation to sexuality, then no — that’s an unfair double standard. Heterosexual people walk down the red carpet with their partners all the time, they talk about their children…”

Actors...very few have achieved a standard of education that would make them vocally important!!!

As for child stars...the less said, the better.

GLAAD...

...can you please shut the f**k up!!!

Michelle Rodriguez

Michelle Rodgriguez's new film: Tomboy, A Revenger’s Tale (which hasn't even started shooting)...has upset that bizarre institution known as GLAAD (what do they actually do?!? Apart from watching too much TV)...

GlaadGLAAD released a statment to The Hollywood Reporter expressing their discontent.

GLAAD’s director of programs for transgender media, Nick Adams, said, “We haven’t read the script, but it’s disappointing to see filmmakers turning what is a life-saving medical procedure for transgender people into a sensationalistic plot device.

“We are at a crucial moment in the public’s understanding of transgender issues, and stories like these have the potential to undermine the progress we’ve worked so hard to achieve.”

A hitman is turned into a hitwoman...that's the plot! Dire, to say the least...aren't you all getting yourselves into a super-sensitive lather about nothing...!

Read the f**king script before you comment...yes, the world is - most definitely - going mad.

Ron Nyswaner...

...can you please: Shut the f**k up...

RonNyswaner

Writer of Philadelphia and the tepidly received Freeheld...went on a rampage last week at the Vanguard Awards Gala...

We must be careful — as we become mainstream — that we don’t forget we’re the descendants of outlaws and rebels. We must resist the tendency to be de-gayed. One of my recent gay-themed projects had a lot of potential. But the producers became fearful. The gay characters were idealized. Their edges were smoothed out. The conflict between them was softened. Over my vigorous objections by the way, for the record.

Well said.

But now...he has back-tracked...

At last week’s Vanguard Awards Gala, in the glare of the spotlight and the excitement of the moment, I made some remarks that need to be corrected and explained. In a speech that was meant to be a reflection on internalized gay-shame and self-censorship, I denigrated the courage and integrity of my colleagues on the movie Freeheld. These comments were inaccurate and unfair. The producers never suggested that the characters should be anything but thoroughly and proudly gay. We disagreed over the amount of conflict that should be present in their relationship; I won some arguments and lost others. The movie is satisfying and beautiful in many ways, particularly in the performances of the leads. The script that made it to the screen is weaker than it ought to have been and for that I must accept responsibility. I apologize to my colleagues for the pain my comments have caused.

So...shut the f**k up.

Shut the f**k up...James Franco

James-Franco

James Franco:

“Well, I like to think that I’m gay in my art and straight in my life. Although, I’m also a gay in my life up to the point of intercourse, and then you could say I’m straight… If it means whom you have sex with, I guess I’m straight.”

Who - indeed - cares!?!
