Gay & Racial Jabs on 'Entourage' Set
Posted Nov 20th 2009 4:18PM by TMZ Staff
The creator of "Entourage" is vowing to put a stop to the gay and
racial "jokes" being thrown around on the set of his show, after one
of the stars revealed he's "occasionally" targeted ... and unhappy
about it.
Rex Lee -- who plays Lloyd on the show -- was out in L.A. yesterday,
where he claimed certain members of the crew "occasionally" make fun
of his ethnicity and sexuality on set. Rex added, "I try not to let it
bother me."
After Lee's admission, the show's creator Doug Ellin told TMZ he's
"shocked and horrified" to hear about the situation and "will be
speaking to everybody before we start filming again in March. It's not
something condoned or acceptable."
Ellin also told us he already spoke to Lee -- and during the convo,
Rex re-confirmed that crew members had made "insensitive gay jokes."
Ellin claims he's now going to lay down the gauntlet, telling Rex if
it happens again, the culprit will be fired.
Piven's a pig.

Where did they even find an insensitive gay to joke about?

Stargate Universe SGU: It puts the "U" in "SUCKS"!
It's the show 'Defiling Gravity' would be if DG had more regulars,
fewer abortions, worse writers, and no budget for lighting.
Remember, you can't spell "disgust" without SGU!

It is simply breathtaking to watch the glee and abandon with which
the liberal media and the Angry Left have been attempting to turn
our military victory in Iraq into a second Vietnam quagmire. Too bad
for them, it's failing.
