Lovin' Spoonful Thursday, October 25, 2007 musical chimes
Dear Friends:
I haven't updated this blog in ages. You know this and I know this. I'm glad we've gotten that out of the way. There is a new podcast. It will be up soon. I promise.
BUT.
I received one of my periodicals today and it featured an interview with Sarah Shahi. She avoided talking about her personal life but when asked whether working on a show like The L Word make her question her sexuality at all, she replied, "Not really. It's funny, because we were on location, and there were times when I definitely was feeling kind of lonely [giggles] and I was like, Maybe I could... But I think that sex and the Kinsey Scale and the whole bit-it's all such a personal thing that I really don't feel like I can comment freely on that and sort of have people read what I'm saying right now and have it be fact. Because what I'm saying today could change tomorrow, especially on that sort of topic. My big thing when I was on the show was that I definitely felt I was representing a group of people who had very little representation on television. And I felt, Leave them the fuck alone. Gay, straight, who gives a fuck? [Gay couples] are no different than heterosexual couples--sometimes they even function better than heterosexual couples. That was the biggest revelation I had on The L Word. What is the big fucking deal? They're just like everyone else; leave them alone."
Today is Thursday!
Best friends forever,
PB
