The Glee episode addressing Cory Monteith‘s tragic and untimely death aired last night, and it handled the matter with dignity and grace. Notably, the cause of his character’s death was never addressed — “I care more about how he lived,” says Kurt at the start of the episode.
Today in unlikely celebrity feuds, the one between Gov. Chris Christie and Jenni “JWoww” Farley is going strong. JWoww is no longer angry about the governor’s obvious and well-vocalized distaste for her former reality show The Jersey Shore, which was filmed alternatively in a hot tub and a middle school dance-themed orgy.
Well, this is just horrific: certain American Horror Story viewers and Emma Roberts haters took to Twitter to express their malicious glee at the show’s disturbing, horrifying, soul-crushing gang rape scene, in which the character played by Roberts was drugged and raped by several frat boys. Some sentiments: “so happy that @RobertsEmma got frat raped,” “Emma Roberts is getting gang-date raped, sweet,” and “Shit, I would drug Emma Roberts just to have sex with her.”
The majority of the episode was vignettes of the cast expressing their grief and singing songs honoring Finn’s memory. Lea Michele, his real-life girlfriend who also played his character’s love, openly cried as she sang “Make You Feel My Love” by Bob Dylan. It was touching and completely devastating. [People]

However, when it comes to Christie’s stance on gay marriage (he’s against it), JWoww is incensed:
If you have a problem with two people being in love, and you’re against gay marriage, I have a problem with you,” said Farley. “What happens between two human beings has nothing to do with Chris Christie and does not affect Chris Christie. What does affect me is when my best friend can’t get married in New Jersey, and my best friend’s mother, who is a lesbian, can’t get married.
Good for you, JWoww. [NY Daily News]

Let’s take a moment to address that no one deserves to be raped; rape is never something that should be wished upon anyone — not even in a joking, cavalier way; cheering for a televised rape scene makes you complicit in rape culture. If you look at one of the most disturbing scenes on television in recent memory and think, “Ha, good,” then you need to seriously examine your worldview. That’s all! [ONTD]
