'Optics' are all. This guy should sue if they fire him since this request could ruin dating scene for him, and prospects for finding a great wife and life mate.

Who appreciates Optics more than this cutie-pie dummy WH occupant and his handlers the Marxist Rat rent seekers, corrupt unions and crony capitalists.

Yeah, maybe, but I bet he would have got it even worse if he had agreed to do hetero scenes but not homo ones.

On TV, about 35% of vampires are gay or bi. In real life, fewer than 3.5% of vampires are gay or bi.

So tired of the homosexual crap being forced on us. A bunch of us in one of my crafts groups quit watching “Major Crimes” a couple weeks ago because the whiny narcissistic kid on the show came out of the closet. So they lost 10 or 12 viewers here forever. I’m sure they don’t care. Enough already!

Hollywood is packed with gay casting couches.

How do you imagine so many metro-sexual actors become stars? They’re the ones willing to do what’s necessary to get parts. And that’s not including what child actors have to go through.

IMO, that’s why Roman Polanski got such a pass from the Hollywood community - what he did was SOP for powerful producers/directors. Nobody saw anything wrong with it.

Well, good for him, I guess. But, any actor/actress who signed on for this particular show would have to know he/she was signing up to do gay porn scenes at some point. I downgraded my cable service just to get rid of True Blood.

No, there was one married man actor who refuses to do sex scenes and I remember them bashing him good a few years ago.

Neal McDonough fired from ABC's 'Scoundrels' after refusing sex scenes with Virginia Madsen: report


Neal McDonough is so against having sex with Virginia Madsen that he was fired for it.

The Catholic family man was let go from his new ABC series "Scoundrels" for refusing to engage in heated love scenes with his co-star, Deadline.com reports.

[...]

"It has cost him jobs, but the man is sticking to his principles," a source told Deadline.com. McDonough is set to lose as much as $1 million for "Scoundrels," according to the industry Web site.

“Grimes should have known what he was getting into when he initially signed the dotted line”

“Should have known” is NOT contractually binding!!!

Neither is being compelled to make out with another guy......

Don’t watch the show, but this article brings back an old memory/comment one of my fencing coaches said (about 1964) re dating.

“Why go out with only 50% of the world?”

He was a little strange.

Why anyone still willingly pays for satellite, cable or even Netflix tv is beyond me. Dump it and watch the family interact.

Thanks for posting the photo. I can see why the gay actors wanted to try to get him to do a sex scene — he’s very good looking. Kudos to him for standing his ground. I hope he does find work somehow.

Isn't this the show that went after Ted Cruz, and George Bush on their show last week?

And the 2% work in the arts, entertainment and media. The .5% are schoolteachers.
