Chris’ character on Glee was one of my inspirations to come out to my dad when I was a teenager because of the relationship Kurt and his father had on the show. It makes me so happy to see Chris thriving after all these years! ❤
@@normielovesalot3538i told my mum on Facebook 20th May 2023 about being gay and this year i started watching glee i can relate to Chris's character Kurt he's my favourite male character
My kids have his books. They love them and I've read them and love them. We love Chris. He's a wonderful human being who has made it ok for people to be who they are.
The way Chris, & Whoopi looked at each other as they described each other, AWW. MY HEART!! The Beautiful, Unconditional Love between not just two stars, but two Friends, two human beings, that was so Beautiful!! 🥹🥰 Give them both their well deserved Flowers!! 🌹🌹💜
Polanski was not guilty of 'rape-rape', says Whoopi Goldberg 'We're a different kind of society, we see things differently, in Hollywood' actor says in defence of Roman Polanski Hollywood has rallied behind Roman Polanski after his arrest in Switzerland over the weekend for the rape of a 14 year old, with the actor Whoopi Goldberg suggesting that whatever he was guilty of it wasn't "rape-rape". As a speaker on The View chatshow on US television, she said: "I know it wasn't rape-rape. It was something else but I don't believe it was rape-rape. He went to jail and when they let him out he was like, 'You know what, this guy's going to give me a hundred years in jail. I'm not staying.' So that's why he left." Later in the programme, she added: "We're a different kind of society in Hollywood, we see things differently ... would I want my 14-year-old having sex with somebody? Not necessarily, no." This was the response from many female and some male bloggers was swift and furious. On the Jezebel celebrity website , Lindsay wrote: "We learned about Whoopi's strange and fascinating moral universe, which includes the concept of "rape-rape." This is not the first time she has gone into bat for a Pedophile and she is still allowed to work. On The Frisky Amelia McDonnell-Parry wrote: "Whoopi Goldberg, who I never expected to be a rape apologist, coins a term I've never heard before - 'rape-rape' ." Robert DeNiro himself has been accused of pedophilia as well no wonder they get along.
I didn't know he had written so many books until one of my students showed me one of his books and then I started reading it and I loved it! I'm reading his Land of Stories series now. They are really good! 😅
Same! I bought all the Blu-ray’s and stopped watching after Corey passed! I still have not finished the series! I was so invested when Naya passed. Then mark! It’s a show I can’t watch again
@@therealbomiangelYes!!! I cried when I found out! When naya passed it broke my heart. I was extremely invested with Naya! I still have the Blu-rays and I think it’s on Hulu or one of the ten platforms that I pay for. Maybe one day I will watch the show again

I watched Glee with my daughter back in the day…and I admired Chris’s character and how he navigated coming out to his father and friends. He always felt authentic. He did set a standard. So pleased he continues to thrive. 🇳🇿🇳🇿🐑🐑NZ
I LOVE what Whoopie says! “If it’s not your cup of tea… DONT READ IT! But let other people enjoy it! And think and feel for themselves!” Our world is going backwards and it’s terrifying!
wow I did not know he was making that many books. I remember when his first book came out and it got decent press and media attention so I didn't know about the others. thats so awesome!
Whoopi said, "if its not your cup of tea, dont read the book". I think that you should read as many books from as many authors as you can even if those words make you feel uncomfortable. Absorb as much information and as many opinions as you can. Then , you can make an informed decision. At 9 years old, my teacher took over my library choices, not because they wanted to influence my reading. He did it beacause he recognised how intelligent i was and how i did not have the self esteem to challenge myself. So while i was the only person in my class who did not get to choose "recreational" reading for myself, i was pushed far beyond the limits that i might ever have pushed myself, which i recognise now, 30 years later.
Yeah, but if the option is encouraging people to just not read the book, not let their kids read it as opposed to banning and burning them, then yeah, just leave it alone and let the people who are willing to open their minds enjoy them. Books are an amazing and wonderful thing and I wish everyone in the world had access to all of them, but I'd rather some have access than none have access.
I just can’t watch it after everyone died! And I was huge fan. All the drama behind the scenes ruined the show for me. That’s just me. It took me years to see a Robin Williams movie or a Britney Murphy movie.
Funny. As a teenager I got cast on a show as a gay character. I didn't know it at first but realized along the way. I knew I was but wasn't out to my parents. My mom knew and she made my life miserable so she suspected that's where the show was going and pulled me out. I was heartbroken. I think it would have allowed me to also like him be an inspiración to others.
I have a lot of respect for Chris. I would love to know he got started getting his books published. I have started writing books, and I want to get them published. It’s about a little girl with Hydrocephalus
another character on TV. Life wow I did not know he was making that many books. I remember when his first book came out and it got decent press and media attention so I didn't know about the others. That is so awesome! OMG, I love him so much! Love Glee always has and always will. I love that cast. I love the way Whoopi edifies and brings people up. When you've been in the business as long as she has her words carry weight, and she knows it. Gay books are the wrong books you read Love love Glee!! He’s just so amazing! (edited) Some people still not happy don’t need to come out! Some of us have to come out all the time and it’s tiring. 8-17-24 my old teacher my birthday 35 minutes ago Whoopi said, "If it's not your cup of tea, don't read the book".

I mean they get paid a lot. Why can’t they speak well-always fumbling their words? It’s a mess. Very distracting and disrespectful to the guest. Never heard of him or Glee probably too busy working Anyone can tell from a mile away lol. Coming out haha. Coming out... Everyone knew except him. He just wanted attention. Typical played an openly my own high school character on "My So-Called Life" fifteen years before Love Love Glee!! He’s just so amazing! Some people don’t need to come out! Some of us have to come out all the time and it’s tiring. My own mom is a close librarian and says my own books are really popular. Sydnie Christmas Cover 'Over The Rainbow' Like Loren Allred Did | The Final BGT 2024 World Best Talent Especially Sunny. It’s so uncomfortable. It's Pride Month Never heard of him or Glee is probably too busy working my own head chief was talking here live-action only I am not kidding this is not a joke be nice to me my feelings are hurt my own family's backstory okay to fix it this not a joke is not funny to shut up non-stopping talking to me in DC NFL Network’s I was a fan of Glee okay I was singing myself at home in school too last man is a bully at me 2 guys I know someone in Glee you miss okay took a look is to test someone on set at 10:05 pm to check it out live-action my new role my own show okay.
@@pridan94it’s not true! In all his interviews for years he had that stereotypical voice. Now that he is older and matured he doesn’t have to act like a prop. He can be himself. I’m gay and so is my brother and my brother used to act very feminine until he grew out of it. Glad I was always myself
@javiruiz8365 it is true, but also he was 18 when Glee started. He's 34 now, so naturally his voice has deepened as he's gotten older. But he's said several times that he changed his voice slightly for Kurt. In person, his voice was never quite as high or breathy.
When I was 20 years old, I moved to LA and worked at a video store called Videteque. I was working one day alongside a woman in her 40s, a new employee who was a recovering alcoholic just trying to pull her life together. She was overwhelmed and still learning the system. Whoopi Goldberg came into the store and bought over 30 laser discs (it was the 90s). This woman was nervous and trying to help. The discs were piled up at the register and one of them slipped through a crack in the counter. When Whoopi got home, she called the owner of the store upset that her disc was missing. We offered to pay for a courier to bring it directly to her. Instead, she insisted that the woman be fired. She was. I found her on the street with no shoes a few months later. I brought her back to my little apartment. She had completely relapsed and lost her husband in the process. The next morning, she left and I never saw her again. This story has lived with me for over 30 years.
@javiruiz8365 I literally didn't say anything to imply I'm upset. They were specifically talking about out teenage characters. The characters on Will & Grace were ADULTS. Y'all just want to discredit what was said because a) queerness and b) you weren't even paying attention to the phrasing that was used. They stated "out teenagers" and "one of the first." Not THE first, not the ONLY. One. Of. That means one of...a few, several, more, others, multiple. Use your listening ears.
Not my favorite show "Glee", But I did love the characters. And some of the songs were amazing. I don't understand how human beings hate Or have open prejudice Against People for who they are For being themselves ,Behind the scenes or on stage. The order I become, the more I accept the beautiful tapestry of humanity and all it's colors and I accept the beautiful tapestry of humanity in all its colors and diversity.
Why can’t these ladies minus Whoopi & Joy stop looking at their cards & give proper eye contact and memorize their questions like reporters & journalists do & interview guests properly & professionally. I mean they get paid a lot. Why can’t they speak well-always fumbling their words. It’s a mess. Very distracting and disrespectful to the guest.
@@nieshamccoy9419he is correct! Look at the Sherri show and she is not reading out of a card and also Kelly clarkson. I noticed that years ago and I’m glad someone else saw it also
Um . . . they do a new show five days a week and often get assigned questions they don’t write themselves and hear about it as they are meeting just before the show. Guaranteed, YOU couldn’t do it. Lighten up! By the way, how sad is your life?!
There are too many weird incidents In the 90s a incident happened in Zimbabwe in Africa at a school And the bbc went to interview the kids there whose story was pretty consistent and they were clearly traumatized There are lots of disconnected stories like that
@@shippendales8543I saw that documentary! If people think we are the only people here it’s bizarre. How come all politicians never pass away even during a pandemic 😷! Those people are not human
Evidence would require work on your park, and really comes down to the law of averages. If you have ever done any type of real astronomy and ever looked through a telescope pointed toward the sky, you would quickly get the idea that we are a microscopic DOT in an expansive galaxy and it would be hubris to think that we are the only planet in said galexy to produce life. Then swing that telescopy off to the Andromeda galaxy and let it sink in the brain that you are actually LOOKING at not a stare but an entire grouping of stars bundled together. It's hard to think that there isn't multitudes of wonders that we have not even gotten an understanding of yet, verses being the only planet in a universe with life.
@@lovepanic2738same thing! Will and Grace opened the doors with a show all about being gay and had how many seasons? It’s not like it matters, but they are just not well informed and say anything. Jodie Dallas was the first prime time gay character! Let’s give props to the people that opened the doors first. 🫃
@lovepanic2738 and they said "one of the first" out teenagers. Not the very first or the only one. We all know there were other gay characters before him.
What are you even talking about? You know what they should be celebrating and actually talking about is the first woman president of Mexico and first woman president in the Americas! And of Jewish descent
Okay and? I’m gay and an adult! I don’t need people celebrating me like a child with a flag. I represent myself. One day you will get there and learn to love yourself and your own skin
I agree! I’m gay and I’m still coming out 20 years later. My younger brother is gay also and he never had to come out it was just obvious and now he acts I hate saying this, but normal. I think the media has a stereotype on how gay people should act and be and that’s not the reality and some people fall into it.
i mean, that’s literally what he said? that higher ups telling him not to come out or act straight were ridiculous, because he couldn’t hide it. also, actors who love attention typically stay in the business of acting, and don’t quit after their first big role
Chris’ character on Glee was one of my inspirations to come out to my dad when I was a teenager because of the relationship Kurt and his father had on the show. It makes me so happy to see Chris thriving after all these years! ❤

Y'all just want to discredit what was said because a) queerness and b) you weren't even paying attention to the phrasing that was used. They stated "out teenagers" and "one of the first." Not THE first, not the ONLY.
One. Of. That means one of...a few, several, more, others, multiple. Use your listening ears.
Now he is getting older he is getting really handsome ❤
Some people don’t need to come out! Some of us have to come out all the time and it’s tiring.
💕 love glee
Not my favorite show "Glee", But I did love the characters. And some of the songs were amazing. I don't understand how human beings hate Or have open prejudice Against People for who they are For being themselves ,Behind the scenes or on stage.
The order I become, the more I accept the beautiful tapestry of humanity and all it's colors and I accept the beautiful tapestry of humanity in all its colors and diversity.
chris colfer ate and never stops
Never win a major award? He literally has a golden globe…
He who controls what you read, controls what you think...or if you think.
I can't believe it's been 14 years since Kurt met Blaine on Glee. Where has the time gone...
Whoopi is so proud of Chris and I love that.
I love you ❤
The shade from Joy Behar at 2:45. “Oh, is that why?” Girl, bye!
Why can’t these ladies minus Whoopi & Joy stop looking at their cards & give proper eye contact and memorize their questions like reporters & journalists do & interview guests properly & professionally. I mean they get paid a lot. Why can’t they speak well-always fumbling their words. It’s a mess. Very distracting and disrespectful to the guest.
Wow! 😮
Wow! It's a talk show and it is slightly casual. You just have to be a Debbie Downer, even when people are trying to have fun.
They themselves (except maybe Sunny) acknowledge that they aren't really journalists.
@@nieshamccoy9419he is correct! Look at the Sherri show and she is not reading out of a card and also Kelly clarkson. I noticed that years ago and I’m glad someone else saw it also
Um . . . they do a new show five days a week and often get assigned questions they don’t write themselves and hear about it as they are meeting just before the show.
Guaranteed, YOU couldn’t do it.
Lighten up!
By the way, how sad is your life?!
I thought he won an Emmy?
Golden globe
Sag award
2x emmy nominee
@@pridan943 people's choice awards, 2 teen choice awards, and i forget what else right now lol.
long time no see Chris!! wow is barely and adult now!!!
I’m soooooo sick of their fake laughter. Especially Sunny. It’s so uncomfortable. 🤦🏻♀️
Gay books are the best books
Thank God for Whoopie in this interview
He has gained weight! He actually looks fantastic! Finally grew into himself.
🌈 Happy Pride Month ya’ll ! 🌈
He doesnt need to comeout back then. Everyone knows 😅
The lunacy of this show
Wilson Cruz played an openly gay high school character on "My So-Called Life" fifteen years before Colfer did.
In 1998 Will and Grace came out and glee came out in 2009. See how people just lie and people believe it’s a fact 😂😂😂
Only if you understand English. They said "one of the " Meaning he's not the very first. Yet one of the very few. Hope you listen more
@@annatimberlake7 You don't say "one of the first" when another actor did it fifteen years earlier.
@@mistercool3859You do if there weren’t any others in the intervening years.
@@javiruiz8365The claim was openly gay high school character. Will and Jack are well past high school age.
wonder why we can't use the laws associated with "Larry Flint" to cover the books the MAGA are so afraid of....?...Sunny ??
He's starting to look like Carson Kressley
Joy once again not doing her research and loudly inappropriate
his voice is less feminty now with age
20th book? wow. well i guess some people are still buying his books.
Yes millions are world wide.
❤🧡💛💚💙💜
Where's the evidence, Chris and Sunny?
There are too many weird incidents
In the 90s a incident happened in Zimbabwe in Africa at a school
And the bbc went to interview the kids there whose story was pretty consistent and they were clearly traumatized
There are lots of disconnected stories like that
@@shippendales8543I saw that documentary! If people think we are the only people here it’s bizarre. How come all politicians never pass away even during a pandemic 😷! Those people are not human
Evidence would require work on your park, and really comes down to the law of averages. If you have ever done any type of real astronomy and ever looked through a telescope pointed toward the sky, you would quickly get the idea that we are a microscopic DOT in an expansive galaxy and it would be hubris to think that we are the only planet in said galexy to produce life. Then swing that telescopy off to the Andromeda galaxy and let it sink in the brain that you are actually LOOKING at not a stare but an entire grouping of stars bundled together. It's hard to think that there isn't multitudes of wonders that we have not even gotten an understanding of yet, verses being the only planet in a universe with life.
Never heard of him or glee 🤷♀️ probably to busy working 😂
Yeah, cause we all had NO CLUE HE WAS GAY, right? 🤦🏼♀
all that work and what did it get him
Wasn’t it Will and Grace! It was definitely not him on Glee! Will and Grace started in 1998 and and Glee in 2009. Hmmm 🤔
Played first openly gay high school student on a prime time show not first gay character on a prime time show.
@@lovepanic2738same thing! Will and Grace opened the doors with a show all about being gay and had how many seasons? It’s not like it matters, but they are just not well informed and say anything. Jodie Dallas was the first prime time gay character! Let’s give props to the people that opened the doors first. 🫃
@@lovepanic2738I gathered you and ate! No Lace fronts left behind
@lovepanic2738 and they said "one of the first" out teenagers. Not the very first or the only one. We all know there were other gay characters before him.
Only if you understand English dude. They said "one of the". You can show off your knowledge somewhere else
Nothing against them but it's freaking Pride Month🙄
Cope
Yes it is! Happy Pride! 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️
Whats wrong with them and Pride month?
@@PrincessMJ44 absolutely nothing
What are you even talking about? You know what they should be celebrating and actually talking about is the first woman president of Mexico and first woman president in the Americas! And of Jewish descent
Anyone can tell from a mile away lol. Coming out haha.
Found the incel
I said the same thing!! I’m gay and I actually still come out! He came out dancing 💃
It's Pride Month 🙄
Yeah. Why?
Good observation, Sherlock!😌👏🏼🙄🤦🏻♂️🏳️🌈
Cope
Okay and? I’m gay and an adult! I don’t need people celebrating me like a child with a flag. I represent myself. One day you will get there and learn to love yourself and your own skin
@@javiruiz8365cool bro! It’s not about you though, hope that helps!
Is he..... ?
Is this the guy who paid for a top selling spot in the NY Times?
Nope not even remotely. He earned every one of his best sellers because he is a fantastic writer.
FYI...it's also National Indigenous History Month...but who cares
Coming out... 🤣 🤣 🤣.
Everyone knew except him.
He just wanted attention. Typical
I agree! I’m gay and I’m still coming out 20 years later. My younger brother is gay also and he never had to come out it was just obvious and now he acts I hate saying this, but normal. I think the media has a stereotype on how gay people should act and be and that’s not the reality and some people fall into it.
i mean, that’s literally what he said? that higher ups telling him not to come out or act straight were ridiculous, because he couldn’t hide it.
also, actors who love attention typically stay in the business of acting, and don’t quit after their first big role
More delusional people
This guy is cringe lol
