People A Bus Should Hit: Isaiah Washington


In a recent interview with Larry King, Isaiah Washington was asked about a confrontation with a co-star while on the set of Grey's Anatomy, and his flippant use of the word "faggot":

That’s when Washington said “a lot of things I’m not really proud of.”

“I said several bad words,” he recalled, quoting himself as telling Dempsey: “There’s no way you’re going to treat me like the B-word, the P-word or the F-word.”

He said that the “F-word” was not meant as an anti-gay slur, but implied “somebody who is being weak.” Washington also strongly denied he ever directed the word at gay costar T.R. Knight.

“I am not homophobic in no way, shape or form,” said Washington.

As for Knight claiming the slur was directed at him, Washington said, “That’s a lie. He misrepresented himself.” Washington suggested Knight did that to advance his career and get more money. “He has been very disappointed in playing the character he has been playing. He told me that,” said Washington.

But Washington said he felt badly about repeating the slur backstage at the Golden Globe Awards. “I wish I could take that back,” Washington said.

He also apologized for calling that guy at Starbuck's the T-word, H-word, L-word, and D-S-M-F-A-C words back to back. But when you ask for no foam, that's what you expect. The only person that hates gays more than this douche is Ted Haggard after he found out that a Whistle Blower isn't something you can pay that guy on the corner $50 to do to you in a Motel 6.
