THE SHOCKG COCINCE BETWEEN ‘22 JUMP STREET’ AND JONAH HILL’S GAY SLUR
Jonah Hill has domated this week’s Hollywood news cycle, after a TMZ vio leaked over the weekend of the actor g a gay slur when nonted by a paparazzo.
Earlier that day, the 30-year-old actor exprsed siar remorse for his homophobic remark on Howard Stern’s rad show. A dg aler spots them the stacks, and believ they really are a gay uple, at which pot he utters the same slur that Hill was heard sayg on the tape.
“22 Jump Street” argu, as Hill did on TV, that gay slurs mt be elimated om our daily vernacular.
'22 JUMP STREET'S BIG GAY PROBLEM
The fact of the matter is, both Hill and Tatum are way too old to be playg characters who are tryg to pass for llege stunts, and 22 Jump Street wants dienc to know that ’s on the when Schmidt and Jenko’s bond is tted as they beg to grow apart "llege" (Schmidt beiends the mp’s art crowd, while Jenko jos a aterny and starts playg on the football team), a rather juvenile, overplayed kd of humor rears s ugly head: “OMG, wouldn’t be so funny if the guys were, like, gay?? Hill and Tatum are sentially “playg gay” for lghs. They’re actg like gay men but they’re not actually gay men bee that would be prepostero and also disgtg!
I don’t thk that 22 Jump Street as a whole is homophobic — I jt thk that the cisn to clu the aforementned scen was misguid.
