Actress Evan Rachel Wood went under fire last week when she tweeted, "I called it! Miley Cyrus is leaning toward gay!" (referring to Cyrus' revamped style which includes a short and spiky pixie do'). The "Across the Universe" star later went on to clarify her statement and claim she meant no harm or insult, writing:
"Ok. To be clear. I believe you should be able to joke and have a sense of humor about everything. And i hate explaining, but just to be clear, i dont judge people on how they look. Nor do i associate a hair style with sexuality. I myself am bisexual and have always "joked" about miley giving me gay vibes. Not a bad thing! Just an observation. So i "joked" when she cut her hair that it supported my case. But, i am not so close minded or into stereotypes or labeling. It was a joke. Period. could care less what gender she was attracted to. But dont hate me for supporting her in whatever She chooses. Its all fine by me. That is all."
Cyrus even joined in on the convo on Twitter, insisting she took Wood's words as a joke and that no personal offense was taken. Even so, fans have taken to posting their own responses, some finding Wood's tweet cruel and insensitive while others believe people need to lighten up and not take things so literally. Take a look:
"That was a cruel and insensitive mean girl comment, the hair actually looks cute. Think before you speak or tweet or not say anything at all."
"OMG!!!! It's Just Hair, Maybe this Evan Rachel Wood wants her to be gay so she can get with her. Either way folks 'Gay' is ok!!!"
"Stop the press! I must be gay and I don't even know it. Still keeping my hair short, who cares what she thinks."
"Sheesh. People act like being called gay or gayish is a bad thing. Oh, that's the point. The irony is just sad. I look forward to the day, some day, when gay is no longer considered a slur."
"Yeah, 'LES-BE friends,' she said to the 'girl' named "Evan."
"OMG - THAT'S PITIFUL WHEN YOU ARE LABELED GAY SIMPLY BY THE HAIRCUT YOU CHOOSE - I HAVE A SHORT HAIRCUT AND NOT GAY! I LOOK BETTER WITH SHORT HAIR - JUST A FACT!"
"Jeez, as if Miley Cyrus was the only celeb in history with short, bleached-blonde hair! Folks, go get a life!"
"Why is even saying the word 'gay' backlash? I mean, this is a bisexual saying the word gay, joking about it with one of her friends. Guys, come on, aren't people over reacting just a little here?"
"If you have to explain it then it probably wasn't a very good joke. p.s. I like Miley's new look."
"I wouldn't have attacked her. But if you're going to joke at least make it funny. I think that was just a stupid statement on Wood's part, but it had no malevolent intentions."
"Once again, people: If you are in any way famous or important, do not tweet anything more controversial than what you had for lunch."
"Why would they be upset I thought gay was the in thing.....guess not!"
