Members ljacks13 Posted October 15, 2008 Members Share Posted October 15, 2008 http://www.daytimeconfidential.com/2008/10...-rumor#comments TV Guide Kills Guiding Light Lesbian Storyline Rumor This week's print edition of TV Guide put to rest the rumors of Guiding Light's Olivia(Crystal Chappell) and Natalia(Jessica Leccia) having a lesbian relationship. In the article, a Guiding Light representative confirms Olivia and Natalia will move in together and form a very close relationship that is unusual to soaps. However, the spokesperson states "this is not going to be a gay storyline." Well if they aren't going to be gay, then just how close will they get? Sometimes, I really think the writers of this show don't know what's going on. http://www.glbuzz.com/board/upload/index.p...amp;#entry39300 In the October 20-26, 2008 issue there is this article in TVGuide by Michael Logan. A photo of Crystal is included. Gay Light? The internet is abuzz with reports that Guiding Light is about to launch its own lesbian romance between Olivia and Natalia, the heterosexual--or so we thought-- frenemies played by Crystal Chappell and Jessica Leccia. Well, not quite. A GL publicist does acknowledge that the gals are growing closer and will form "a deep, rich, emotional relationship that will be very unusual for soaps." Word is they will also move in together in an upcoming episode. But, insists the rep, "this is not going to be a gay story line." Too bad. I'd pay big bucks to see the audacious, impossibly brilliant Chappell play that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Southofnowhere Posted October 15, 2008 Members Share Posted October 15, 2008 I find the fact that they issued a statement on this to be beyond HOMOPHOBIC! Why did they have to say anything? Why not just let the storyline plaout as they planned, GUTLESS my mane is GL! Will this show just hurry up and DIE already! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members UKBoi Posted October 15, 2008 Members Share Posted October 15, 2008 Thank god for that! Although I dont really see the need for a statement being issued on the matter...I wish they'd do Frank/Natalia and then maybe pair Olivia with someone new.

Members P.J. Posted October 15, 2008 Members Share Posted October 15, 2008 I don't know what's worse...the idea that HOlivia would just "turn" lesbian, or protesting against killing such a ludicrous idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MichaelGL Posted October 16, 2008 Members Share Posted October 16, 2008 They killed the gay storyline? I'm sure that's not the only story stinking up this show. It wouldn't have been consistent with their character's history IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
