Chris Engan ~ Another Nobody makes a name being Anti-Gay!

No tiara this time, although when Chris Engan ⇐ of the daytime soap The Young & The Restless stormed off the set because of an impending *gasp* gay kiss storyline, a diva crown was certainly in order. Egan hasn't taken the Miss Calfornia-esque postition ("I was raised to believe," yada yada) yet, but one is left to assume. One peek at Engan's Myspace page comments tells us that every one of his commments supports his "principles" save for one who was disappointed in Chris. Okay, thing is, this is a soap opera, a telenovela, where the characters lie to, embezzle from, hump, fornicate, rape and murder almost every every other character on the show at one point or another. That's why people watch. And for anyone to suggest, especially a nobody like Engan, that a brief portrayal of Same Gender Love is beneath these things makes me fighting mad! But it gets deeper. Take a gander at who he was slated to suck face with. Yeah, none other than Yani Gellman ⇑ who plays the character Rafe. Pictured below when he appeared in the Matthew Shepard Story, Gellman refers to Rafe as a "landmark role" for The Young and the Restless and adds that "it's about time" that the show tackled the subject of homosexuality. Gellman states that he has several gay family members, and some of his friends are also part of the gay community. Now Yani is on my radar, for the right reasons. Go Rafe, er, Gellman. And I'd suck face with you any day. As for Chris Engan, as his career circles the bowl with Miss Califonia's, he can suck something else. ~
