All my James Gandolfini fantasies have been flattened.

You can't particularly prove that his reaction was motivated by hate. Although if it were a group of big boobed babes he'd probably have reacted different. All inference of course. I guess he stays in character real well?

Hmm Sounds like he is hiding something doesn't it!

Yes, secretly his turgid manpole throbs for another.

Awwwshit! This isn't the first time I've read an article syndicated on Yahoo that's from one of those rags.

At least you're not one of those people who thought Andy Kaufman had come back from the dead because Yahoo carried a press release saying so.

A press release. I could put out one of those.

Whatever. We pay celebrities the big bucks to entertain us. Personally I think he's just a big ol' phobe and needs to chill the fuck out.

Frankly, I'd be pretty irate if the Queer Eye guys showed up at my place of work insisting that I need a make-over. I question the majority of their recommendations.

Perhaps we can console ourselves with the thought that Gandolfini knows he's hot and didn't need them to come make him over into what a mainstream gayboy sort would find "hawt!".

I guess so. I kinda like my men with manly exterior and metro interior. The article is apparently syndicated from The National Enquirer though. Yahoo really needs to co-brand their wire stuff better. It's mis-leading.

I'm a bit confused. It says "National Enquirer" in three different places on the page. What's misleading about it? The lack of a byline?

Girl, I am all nerve frayed from being raise by computers and videogames from the cradle. I require a highly stylized semiotic before my brain registers any minute details like that.

It doesn't have to be hate that motivated him (I assume you mean homophobia), he might simply be mortified that the producers set him up for a makeover as a "big dumb slobby str8 guy" which is the Fab Five's usual prey...

I suppose. He could have reacted a little better though. I mean he's an actor. It's his job to entertain.

The article is from the Nation Enquirer apparenly though.

Ah well. Its rather moot point then, innit? Still...if the story were true, I'd react similarly in his place, considering the abominable taste and treatment the "Fabsters" have wraught upon the bears that have had the misfortune of being caught in their sights.

Newsflash, Carson! We aren't all twinkie metrosexuals, dear! Hairy = good. Leave it alone! LOL

Ah yes, from that bastion of journalistic accuracy The National Enquirer.

Even if true, I'm not sure one can infer that he hates fags. Hell, I wouldn't want those twits near me either. Sounds like he's just another Hollywood prima donna / control freak. Not unlike Liza, Celine, Barbra, etc. ad nauseum.

When did this supposedly happen? I don't think they've started filming the next season of The Sopranos yet.

I think that I'd probably have a similar reaction if those guys showed up at my job all of a sudden. They annoy me to no end.

He IS an actor, but I've gotten the impression that he takes his work very seriously (hard to imagine after seeing 8mm, but whatever).

I mean... there are actors like Mandy Moore and Jason Biggs who would probably enjoy being "Punk'd", but then there are actors like De Niro or Hoffman or [insert Italian mafioso actor here] that seem to be pretty into the "art" of acting.

Although I must admit, it would be funny to see the look on his face if they were filming him walking into the back room of the Bada Bing Club and instead of his boys, he sees Carson hanging there in a sling.

Gandolfini has played gay roles in the past, like in "The Mexican" where he actually was a bear who falls for a chaser. I dont think he has any problem with gay people.. rather with someone like the QueerEye troope invading his workplace.

The source notwithstanding, I think he acted like any sane 300# Italian-American male would have: grievously affronted. He's gotten pretty far with his looks just as they are, and lots of men we know wouldn't have him any other way. So hoist your fantasy back up where it belongs.

Besides, was it something that had been cleared with his agent? It might be more about bucks than anything else.

And WTF are you doing quoting the National Enquirer?

Deny James Gandolfini? This I'd like to see!!! As for the rest, I don't watch TV, that shit is too "queer" for my tastes...
Doctor's orders: rent or buy the whole season episodes of the shows you like on DVD. Good for your sanity. Amen!

I would guess it has more to do with the invasive cameras than anything else. I mean, he did a really good job playing a non-stereotypical gay man in The Mexican (even though the rest of the movie was crap).

They probably killed the character "zone" that he had been preparing all morning. Frankly, I wouldn't care for the queer eye guys interrupting me when I'm in the middle of work.

Taking The Mexican role into account.

I took this article and thought "great another temper tanturm throwing entertainer who believes as an actor he can be a rude obnoxious asshole" rather than a homophobe.

I think he would have done the same thing if it was Punk'd, WWE Raw, Jamie Oliver's Naked Chef etc.
