Jesse Williams broke the internet this week when footage of him nude while performing on Broadway leaked.
The actor is currently starring as the lead in ‘Take Me Out,’ in which he stars as a closeted baseball gay player and features in a number of scenes sans clothes.
With the world at large in deep conversation about his nether regions, Williams is weighing in himself.
Full story below…
While much of the discourse was amorous and filled with admiration, theater execs voiced concern about stepping up security measures to protect performers.
Addressing the situation, Williams told The Associated Press:
“I’m not down about it. Our job is to go out there every night, no matter what.”
Continuing, he appeared to express an alignment with the need for such leaks to be prevented:
“‘I’m not really worrying about it [the leak]. We do need to keep advocating for ourselves. And it’s wonderful to see a community push back and make clear what we do stand for, what we don’t. Consent is important, I thought. So, let’s keep that in mind universally.”
The 40-year-old concluded:
“Theater is a sacred space, and everybody doesn’t understand that. Everybody doesn’t necessarily respect or regard that in a way that maybe they should, or we’d like.”
With that, what are…
He made that speech about racial inequity but left the Black woman who supported him throughout his struggling career until he made it and now exclusively dates white women.
He also quit his job so child support payments could cease.
He used a Black woman and operates as if he is a broke deadbeat.
I get that gay men only care about private parts, but we are pathetic enough making straight men rich on OnlyFans. Stop salivating over this guy.
Of course he’s not down, he’s proud of all that meat !
Diva admires his B**🍆 handsome face, beautiful blue eyes, sunkiss skin and a big d… this man is the real candyman 💅🏾
And hopefully he treats you like Candyman ⚔️😈 one could dream
Why are straight actors playing gay parts on broadway. I don’t get it.
Agreed. Monica should be cast as the gay man roles.
Because we still let them do it. Any time they need a career boost
