T.R. Knight on Ellen
I just read this on E-Online, and I must say, Isiah Washington can go to hell, or fuck himself, whichever he chooses to do, because this interview with TR makes my heart ache, it's AWFUL, the truth is finally out.
I hate Isiah Washington, I hope he's the person that supposedly dies on Grey's Anatomy.
Ellen: So, Patrick Dempsey and Isaiah Washington are on the set. A scene is about to start, and they start getting in a fight, and words-
Not because I was late.
And Isaiah Washington says what to Patrick Dempsey?
He referred to me as a faggot.
As a faggot?
Yes.
So, you're around the corner and hear this?
[Joking.] It's an awesome word, isn't it?
It is. It really is unbelievable. It's bad enough in schoolyards that happens, but grown men-
Everyone heard it.
He said this horrible, hateful word, and it puts you in this position, because you weren't out, and then everyone on the set is hearing this and then you-
I was under no delusions. My friends on the set knew. We talked about it. They knew. I was not under any delusion that they didn't know, but I think publicly it's not my thing to, like, call up People magazine and be like, "Hey, you want to know something about me?" I've never been called it, and you know you go through things in life, and you lose friends when you go through the process-whatever your journey is, but I've never been called that to my face.
And then the other night at the Golden Globes, I guess Isaiah Washington starting up the whole thing up again, which is kind of crazy.
Yeah, he denied that he said it [faggot]. I don't know what to say, really, about that.
