Universal has quickly scrubbed the gay joke from The Dilemma's trailer. Here's the sanitized version.
Lady Gaga may be the 7th most powerful woman in the world, but our other beloved silver-haired lady Anderson Cooper has flexed his power muskles by affecting real change in the movie theatre. When Coopy (our nickname for him in our fantasies) appeared on Ellen this week to discuss anti-gay bullying he casually chastised a trailer for the new Vince Vaughn flick The Dilemma for the gay-unfriendly line: "Ladies and gentlemen, electric cars are so gay."
Thankfully, Hollywood-centric website Deadline is reporting that Universal Studios is doing the right thing and clearing up this glaring, dangerous oversight, though execs are confused by the situation as GLAAD screened the film and trailer with no criticisms.
In case you missed it, here's what Coopy had to say on Ellen this week:
