NYTimesman Michael Cieply is all over the departure of Eddie Murphy from the upcoming Oscars telecast, as a result of the departure of Murphy buddy Brett Ratner, a day after Ratner was forced out, due to Ratner’s utterance of something bitchy about gays and, apparently, some jive talk about his sex life on the Howard Stern show.
“In an industry in which relationships can fracture quickly, Mr. Ratner’s connection to the show at least lasted longer than Kim Kardashian’s marriage.”
Funny, Mike, funny! You’re a funny man!
Afterwords
So what the fuck did Brett say? If you think you’re going to read it in the Times, well, you’re a goddamn homo. No, apparently Brett was asked about rehearsals and he said “rehearsals are for fags.” Yeah, that is so gay. The Howard Stern stuff, unsurprisingly, is a bit more rowdy. According to MTV Movies Blog, Brett’s rap included the following:
During a call to Howard Stern’s radio show, Ratner went into rather graphic detail about his relationship with a “very young” Lindsay Lohan.
He bragged about performing oral sex on Lohan, saying, “I’m probably the best in the world,” adding that he knows he’s the best “because they cry.” He also admitted he had Lohan tested for STDs before the two slept together in 2006 – you know, when she was 20 and he was 37.
“Before I have sex with a girl, I do do one weird thing,” Ratner told Stern. “I do take ‘em to the doctor and check ‘em out. I’m like a cootie freak. I’m a germaphobe. I’m a hypochondriac. Before I go all the way, I send the girl to the doctor and check them for everything. My doctor has a test to tell if you’re going to catch something in the future even.”
For the record, Lohan came back clean. Aren’t you glad you know that? He went on to recount how Lohan later found him in bed with a Victoria’s Secret model and the two got into a fight over him.
But, apparently, no pictures. Too bad!
