Garrett Wang Takes Legal Action After False Rumors

Who cares if he is gay or not?

Now if the rumor was that he produced child porn or was abusive that might factor, but one's sexual preference is so not an issue. He was a so so actor in a disappointing series and that is his claim to fame- definitely a trivia question or low budget convention guest,
 
What kind of conclusions are you guys coming up with? That his legal action is just a publicity stunt? Or what? What is the point of speculating and coming to some conclusion when no one knows what he is talking about? If Wang wasn't clear about the details of this legal, then he wasn't. Why not admit that we don't know why and move on, instead of using this as an excuse to bash him?

The thing is, good or bad, we can speculate and if people don't like that, it's tough on them; they don't have to read the thread.

And there are lawsuits and other legal actions happening in Hollywood everyday but we don't hear about them. The only reason we are even talking about it is because Garrett Wang let us know about a cease and desist he put out. This entire discussion is litterally his fault. As already discussed earlier in the thread, users here didn't even know what he was talking about, had to Google it and in some cases came up empty, and now we're talking about the possibility that it was about a rumor from some person online about him being gay. If anything, Wang has shune the spot light upon himself. He should have just shut the hell up about the cease and desist, which the chances of that leaking were probably slim, then count his blessings he doesn't sue 'cause then it will come out.

If you start searching for blogs and posts at websites online about various actors and actresses, you'll find all kinds of rumors, sexually deplorable comments, threats on lives, etc. These things happen, good or bad. But Wang thinks he's really important, apparently. The cease and desist is pretty much useless and if he goes to court over it and it some how remarkably doesn't get thrown out in pre-trial, any normal judge (though we are talking about California here) would dismiss it.

If anything he's created an online headache for himself and he'll end up the butt of some jokes now.


And please, Wang, don't wear your Starfleet uniform to court.
 
You know, this thread is going to force a lot of straight actors into the closet, coming out as gay in order to get gay sympathy and roles in Broadway plays, only for the tabloids to photograph them in walks in the park with secret wives, with small dogs walking alongside them, pushing strollers. Get caught carrying your own secret love child you had with your secret wife on your shoulders in some amusement park as the kid eats cotton candy, moves the sunglasses on your face revealing who you are....

We are getting to that point. Career killers, discovering your not actually a gay.

This isn't a discussion about a bizarre mirror universe. You've got some crazy alternate reality fiction going on there, though.

:guffaw:
 
Thus if I understand well, our friend Garrett makes a fuss because somebody was told that he was gay, right?
Uh, the best answer would not have been the indifference? What I mean is, what can it do that he is gay or not? His film/TV career is at a standhill (because his reputation to be a lazy actor) and I don't think that his career of organizer/moderator of ST conventions really suffers from his sexual inclinations but maybe that I'm wrong and/or naive.... :shrug:
