i may destroy the golden globesThe unrepentant violence that is James Corden doing a homophobic portrayal of a gay man in a musical about gay rights.Setting aside personal views on James Corden, one of the biggest problems of hiring a straight actor to play a gay role is that their interpretation of what 'gay' means will so often be stereotypical and problematic.
At least if it's a gay actor that's less of a problem.So... we couldn't get a gay man to play James Corden's role in #TheProm ?
They were all too busy? Do we still think it's kosher to have non-LGBTQIA people playing aggressively flamboyant, stereotypical gay characters?
