Here’s A BUNCH OF TV News
@ihatemissbenny Replying to @Teddy Bear queue some nervous fidgeting. #fullerhouse #greenscreen #candacebure
When everyone guessed that the “Tanner sister” had to be famously homophobic Candace Cameron Bure, she released a statement to People Magazine to say, “Nuh-uh.”
“I never asked Miss Benny’s character to be removed from Fuller House and did not ask the writers, producers, or studio executives to not have queer characters on the show. Fuller House has always welcomed a wide range of characters. I thought Miss Benny did a great job as ‘Casey’ on the show. We didn’t share any scenes together, so we didn’t get a chance to talk much while filming on set. I wish Miss Benny only the best.”
Of course, this isn’t the first time Cameron Bure has been accused of being awful towards LGBTQ+ people. Last year, Cameron Bure gave an interview in which she talked about how she moved from Hallmark to Great American Family channel because she wanted to “keep traditional marriage at the core” of her movies there — this after Hallmark announced they would be making same-sex romantic holiday movies.
Also, carefully read her statement above. 1. One does not have to explicitly ask for someone to be cut from the show to make it clear that you want them cut from the show, but 2. Miss Benny came out as transsexual in the past year or so — notice how the statement is crafted in such a way that Cameron Bure never has to use a pronoun to describe her?
Wait, Taylor Armstrong came out as bisexual while I was away? And this was before the Kyle Richards mess? Huh! Well, congratulations and a belated Happy Pride, Taylor!
Did you catch all the Taylor Swift references in the second season of The Bear? It is its own whole arc for Richie!
Soon you’ll be able to turn on a Murder, She Wrote channel on Freevee and just zone out all damn day. And that’s great, but let’s work on a Golden Girls channel next. OOH or a DESIGNING WOMEN channel!
Enjoy your little dose of Samantha on And Just Like That … because that’s all you’re getting. Also, it’s not going to live up to all the hype if Cynthia Nixon is to be believed.
KEEP YOUR HANDS OFF OF BRITNEY JEAN SPEARS, SIRS.
