While Britney Spears is already back in the spotlight after her manic meltdown and rehab stint, Grey’s Anatomy star and resident homophob Isaiah Washington is still doing penance for his politcally incorrect flub. Isaiah has declined to toss his name into the Emmy Award pile for his work on the hostile work environment medical drama. From TMZ: After a very public battle with homophobia (he allegedly called castmate T.R. Knight a homophobic term, and then used an anti-gay epithet during an interview at the Golden Globes in January), “Grey’s Anatomy” star Isaiah Washington won’t be submitting his name for an Emmy this year, according to the Daily News. In order to be considered for an award, names had to be submitted by Friday, but, says Washington’s publicist Howard Bragman –- whose job must have been particularly challenging this past year –- Washington’s interested in “the acting, not the awards.” Washington recently attended counseling for his insensitive slurs, and issued an apology. Not hsi interest is in not losing his job. I’m guessing bowing out of the Emmy’s was just one requirement on the “how to save your job” list he got from ABC. Going to rehab was at the top and I think the next item is “kiss the gay guy’s ass.” Bet Isaiah loves that one. |
