Excerpts from T.R. Knight's interview w/The Advocate...

I think my friends here in Palm Springs are annoyed that I keep disappearing to blog! But I had to post some of this T.R. Knight interview with The Advocate that AfterElton.com posted this morning.
Of course, the whole Isaiah Washington "f****t" calling incidents were addressed and T.R. was asked if Washington had apologized to him personally:“Which time?” Then, when pressed, he said, “What a lovely blue sky.” When askedwhether show creator Shondra Rhimes had come to him and asked what he wanted to happen, he paused thoughtfully before saying, “I like blueberries. Do you like blueberries?”

On the hypocrisy of religious groups who preach love but don't practice it when it comes to gays: "...whether it’s about your sexuality or your religion or your race— that’s hate. That’s all this is about. And if people need to learn that when it comes to sexual orientation, then they need to learn that."
On growing up gay: "You are taught you are wrong, that you are bad. [So] you don’t do anything, and you wrap yourself in a little straitjacket, and you put yourself in your little room,” says Knight. “‘Don’t do it! Don’t look at someone, don’t touch them, don’t kiss them, don’t do anything!’ Then maybe it’s OK. I mean, sure, that plagued me all through childhood, you know, in so many ways, and that’s stuff that’s hard to get away from. But you have to, and eventually, you know, you do.”
