To all my readers, gay, straight, bi, still deciding: I'm truly sorry and deeply embarrassed by this. My personal views on homosexuality and bisexuality and sexuality in general are so far from the dark place where these kinds of hateful terms come from and are not at all reflected accurately by such a statement. Especially now, when same-sex marriage is such a big issue in the US, I feel the days when jokingly calling someone a "homo" or saying "that's gay" are simply over.

No one should be made to feel like they or their sexuality/lifestyle is synonymous with "stupid", and no one should be made to feel like they are less than anyone else because of who they love. It's almost like how, in the past, everyone used to drop the N-bomb like it was a day of the week, but now it's totally unacceptable. I feel, hope, that down the line, it will be the same with sexually derogatory terms as well.

I hope my kids never use these hurtful words as flippantly as I have. Again, I am ashamed for having said it and to everyone out there, fans, friends, family, and the LGBT community: I'm sorry.

And although his apoligy is one of the best of it's kind (erm lol), it is simply too little, too late. Most likely he just found out what this could do to his "carreer"... Should he ever get one.   » Report this comment to administrator Posted by JESS Kalinowsky, on 11-03-2008 10:57, 4. 90210? are they resurrecting from death? He is quite cute, but not too bright! When one is a 'up and comer' they best keep their comments to themselves! After one has 'made it' and no longer 'needs' the public, then they can say stupid things! Maybe the gay producers of 90210 et al will take his remarks into consideration when casting, or renewing his contract. Hollywood is 'supposed' to be left of center. But I think not so left!   » Report this comment to administrator Posted by Fault, on 11-05-2008 01:56, 5. 90210 Star Regrets Homo Elvis Remark!
