Taylor Kitsch Plays Gay Character

Taylor Kitsch is well known for playing alongside Rihanna in the movie Battleship but I loved him in Friday Night Lights playing a high school football star named Tim Riggins.  His new  role is in Ryan Murphy’s adaptation of The Normal Heart which is a new HBO film.  It is based on a play, which recounts the onset of the HIV-AIDS crisis in New York City in the early 1980s. Kitsch plays a closeted investment banker and, later, a prominent AIDS activist. Sounds like it will be pretty good and hopefully there will be some shirtless scenes of this pretty boy.

This began recently when Hilary wrote Ellen a letter to gain her support for her cause and I'm not surprised Ellen accepted. Both are inspiring women no matter what your politics are.

The Game Blames Gays For AIDS Spreading

Rapper The Game recently spoke out about AIDS and blames closeted gay men for the disease being spread. Obviously, intelligence isn't his strong suit and he needs better agents to filter his verbal vomit. Here is his twisted logic for being homophobic about the spread of AIDS:

The #1 issue with that is you could be fooling somebody and you could give them AIDS and they can die … and that shit spreads because that girl you might be fooling might leave you and go find another dude who ain't gay and give him the disease.
