While I am in a bad mood

Here is a post in which I criticize the public statements of certain actors.

Lisa Edelstein has complained about fans harassing boyfriends of hers, because the fans want her to be with Hugh Laurie instead. That is a more than fair complaint, and any fans doing that need a life, and probably psychiatric attention.

With that said, she needs to stop egging people on by talking about how do-able she finds Hugh Laurie. The latest is an Ausiello interview in which she "jokes" about showing Hugh herself naked and asking which parts she needs to tone up in case they have a sex scene together (even though, as she says, the parts won't be seen on TV).

Such talk makes you sound like a person of loose morals, dear.

Lest you think I only scorn women for acting like horndogs, Robert Sean Leonard similarly grossed me out during an old interview, in which he said he enjoyed rehearsing for The Music Man with the chorus because the teenaged girls were hot. Ew, dude. Some thoughts should stay in your head.

In the less than classy dept, I also had a beef with an interview done with Edelstein, but it was more the interviewer's fault. It was in Bitch magazine and I thought, oh here we go, finally some tough questions about why a smart and independent dean of medicine needs to dress so, so ridiculously trashy! But instead they spent the entire interview talking about Laurie's bum.

...way to roll, post-feminist world.

I just wrote above, and will copy here: What kind of atmosphere does the show production have, where your character having sex with House is the most important thing for you to strive for? LE has talked about wanting that for Cuddy; JMo has talked about wanting that for Cameron; most female guest stars gush about their sexual chemistry with HL. Do they all have the impression that having sex with the lead character makes you Queen of the show? That is a sad state of affairs in sexual politics there.

I can't remember where I read it but there was an article asking this woman who dresses the cast why they dress cuddy so inappropriately when she is a hospital administrator. I can't remember her exact words but she said this was the way business women were dressing nowadays and she had no plans to change cuddy's attire. I thought to myself, wtf, where is she finding business women wearing tight as skin skirts with cleavage baring blouses.
