You Didn't Tell Me How The Story Ends, Mom

So, Geri Jewell has Cerebral Palsy and she's a success in Hollywood, then gets married. Yeah; but has she appeared in much since then? And you didn't tell me the other part, Mom: she got divorced and is now a lesbian who hasn't had too much success as even a speaker since. And these comments are from the article on her:

There has to be a truth in advertising law for actors in TV shows - in order to prevent gays from pretending to be non-gays.

Car accident, I hope she wasn't driving. I remember her from the fats of life and I'm sure she wouldn't make a good driver.

The book IS NOT about her being gay, that is just ONE part of the book Fox decided to focus on. Ignorant fools. Hateful nonsense

Dear Haters: Just 'cause U couldn't "Make It" in H-Wood is no reason to go all nasty, evil, jealous, envious, blah, blah, blah. Or, maybe it is, since that's all you "got", eh? How's that working out for ya? Geri is AWE-SUM as a person, actor & inspirational comedic phenom. She has the goods to work through real--I know!---physical pain, be honest, forthright, funny AND do so with grace & dignity. Can't say that about, well, most people. GERI ROX! (Don't bother retorting, haters; I'd almost feel guilty for making your tainted brains try to think, like real hard, & be clever. As if.)

I would ask you to look at the hate meter when you post something....

1. I don't care if she's gay....that's not my job...

2. To call people nasty, evil, jealous, envious, blah, blah, blah....who is hating?

3. I don't need H'wood's "got".... period...ever

Attention! I'd like to make an announcement! I'm heterosexual, healthy, and have no particular hang-ups. I am not writing a book about it. Thank you.

First of all never end a sentence with "of", it's a dangling participle. Secondly, if you believe in the God I believe in, he loves us ALL. Try searching for forgiveness for your ignorance in your Bible, sweetie pie.

If reading the bible works for you, that's great - but it doesn't work for everybody. I personally prefer a book with some facts in it, but I do respect the rights of others who find solace and comfort in reading the bible.

I guess when one's career dies, one has to seek a sympathetic audience somewhere.

Nancy McKeon, known as "Jo" on 'Facts of Life' came out as straight eight years ago. I was shocked, to say the least.

Another washed up one time 'celebrity' attempting to shock people for a little attention.



Guess she couldn't find a job so she wrote a book.

Phase 1 - Have some sort of name recognition due to TV/Radio/Movie/Reality Show

Phase 2 - Release memoir of how you're "out" and how life was a struggle

Phase 3 - ????

Phase 4 - Profit!

I've never understood if being gay is normal and ok why those in the public eye have to come out of the closet and explain how they have struggled. This may be a news flash but everyone struggles no matter what your orientation or creed. Some of us don't have any special protections to use as a crutch.

come on.. you can't seriously be saying you think heterosexual people experience the same amount of social pressures as homosexuals. be realistic...

Ok so lets be realistic. You talk of social pressures, thats called life and I would say that they are heterosexuals that do experience more pressures than homosexuals. Every person is different. Some have more issues than others thats just the way it is. I'd refer you to people horribly burned so bad that they scare adults. How much social pressure do you think they get? I guarantee it's nothing like the typical person.

This does not give me hope, Mom.
