Washington Blade editor Kevin Naff explaining his call for a gay boycott of Adam Shankman‘s Hairspray to Fox News commentator Bill O’Reilly a while back. The beef is about star John Travolta‘s affiliation with Scientology, which Naff feels has been injurious and insulting to gay interests by offering gay-to- straight therapy sessions.
I don’t like quoting from WENN, but Hairspray director Adam Shankman is quoted by the British news org as being “astonished” that Naff “has made the dumbest claims on the entire planet. Everybody involved in Hairspray — all the creators are gay. So John has no problem with people being gay — me, the writers, composer, John Waters…all gay. John’s personal beliefs never walked onto my set. I never heard the word Scientology.”
