Shonda Rhimes unloaded on a fan opposed
to gay sex in her hit ABC hit shows How to Get Away with Murder
and Scandal.
On Thursday's episode, law student
Connor Walsh and intern Paxton got physical in a steamy office scene.
“@shondarhimes the gay scenes in
Scandal and How to Get Away with Murder are too much. There is no
point and they add nothing to the plot,” Dabdelhakiem
tweeted.
Rhimes fired back in a series of
tweets: “What gay scenes? 'Gay' scenes? There are no GAY scenes.
There are scenes with people in them. If you are suddenly discovering
that Shondaland shows have scenes involving people who are gay, you
are LATE TO THE PARTY.”
“If u use the phrase 'gay scenes', u
are not only LATE to the party but also NOT INVITED to the party.”
“Bye Felicia,” she added.
