Jonah Hill Dropped the Alec Baldwin Faggot Bomb on Camera

Jonah Hill would like you to know that he is an impassioned supporter of gay rights. That’s not easy to do in Hollywood where only every single powerful and connected individual who can make or break your career agrees with you. Jonah loves the gays so much, he can’t stop talking about them. Like in his casual street greeting to a paparazzo, suck my dick, faggot, caught on video and promptly sold to TMZ. Uh-oh, Jonah. You unleashed the Baldwin Kraken.

“I’m upset, because, from the day I was born, and publicly, I’ve been a gay rights activist. To give it some context, not excusing what I said in any way, this person had been following me around all day, had been saying hurtful things about my family, really hurtful thing about me personally, and I played into exactly what he wanted and lost my cool. And in that moment, I said a disgusting word, that does not at all reflect how I feel about any group of people.” — Jonah Hill, pro forma apologizing on Howard Stern

It’s eloquent, terse, and he even changed racial equality to gay rights when he ripped of Justin Bieber’s racist slur apology from yesterday. Of course, you can believe in gay rights and still drop the f-bomb. Don’t let the knee-jerk pebble grabbers fool you. I’ve never called anybody a faggot in my life, not because I didn’t hear it growing up, but because my generic go-to was motherfucker. That’s just a happenstance. Using bad words didn’t used to mean you were bad people. Now it does. Depending on the word.
