William Shatner: “George Takei Has Been Mean to Me for Decades”

Tuesday, November 11th, 2008

A soon as George Takei announced his wedding plans the media starting buzzing with the all important question: Would Sulu invite Captain Kirk to the ceremony?

And so it began, a celebrity cat fight, fought on Entertainment Tonight and You Tube.

At one point The Shat went public saying that he felt Takei was suffering from a form of “psychosis”all the while claiming no wrong doing in the past.

Takei didn’t take it laying down. He threw blows at Shatner during his late night talk show stints and at other various public appearances.

This time, Shatner, still being unable to just let it go, takes to YouTube to rant about the entire ordeal…again.

He says,

“George has been mean to me for a long time, in public, and I’ve never said anything. I wish he’d stop being mean to me. For me, there’s no fight. I would like to (talk to him). I’m not mad at him, I’m annoyed that he keeps saying bad things about me.”

At the end of the video he invites Takei on his new talk show, Raw Nerve.

“I’ll issue an invitation to George to come and talk to me.”

Celebrity Quote of the Day - William Shatner

Wednesday, October 22nd, 2008

“The whole thing makes me feel badly. The poor man, there’s such a sickness there. It’s so patently obvious that there’s a psychosis there. I don’t know what his original thing about me was; I have no idea. I didn’t read his book that was printed many years ago but apparently I didn’t let somebody have a close -up.

“I literally don’t know him. I didn’t know him very well on the series; he’d come in for a day or two… but he’s continued to speak badly about me for all these years. You’d think there would be an epiphany at some point where George might have said, ‘Poor Bill Shatner, he is such a lonely, desperate, unhappy man that he did all these terrible things to me…’ when I said hello or something… but instead what he does is he makes this big deal about not inviting me to his wedding.

“There must be something else inside George that is festering, and makes him so unhappy that he takes it out on me, in effect a total stranger.

“It’s sad the man can’t find enough peace in his life to either be positive and say ‘I forgive him for whatever those hurts were,’ or to shut up about it… I feel nothing but pity for him.”

- William Shatner is still bitter about not being invited to George Takei’s wedding.

George Takei Finally Gets Married

Monday, September 15th, 2008

Ever since the California Supreme Court ruled that gay marriage was legit and legal in that state, George Takei has been talking marriage.

After more than 20 years of being together in a committed relationship, Takei, 71, and longtime partner, Brad Altman, 54, finally wed Sunday evening in a Buddhist ceremony in L.A.

There were over 200 guests at the lavish ceremony, which included Star Trek co-stars, Nichelle Nichols and Walter Koenig, who were the maid of honor and best man.

Nichols said it was a beautiful and emotional event. “I was fighting back the tears. But they came oozing out anyway. I’m so happy that they’re both able to legally proclaim their commitment to one another after spending the past 21 years together.”

Takei was overwhelmed with emotion as well. He said,

“All I can remember is what the priest said. That this moment will never happen again. It’s something to savor.”

Congratulations!

  • It’s only the best for Brad Pitt, who dropped a whopping $600,000+ on furniture at an art and design exhibit in Switzerland earlier this week. He was treated to a special showing of furniture that had been made between the 1940s through the 1960s. Pitt ended up leaving with a $293,000 on a marble table, $300,000 gold lacquer-coated fiberglass sofa, and two Ron Arad chairs that generally sell for $25,000 each. Wendelin Lang, organizer of the exhibit said, “Brad asked questions that only an art expert would ask. You can feel that he is an absolute maniac.”
  • Sharon Stone is still apologizing for blaming “karma” for the recent devastating earthquake in China. The actress has issued a second apology saying, “There have been numerous reports about what I said in Cannes. I would like to set the record straight about what I feel in my heart and end all of the misunderstandings. Yes, I misspoke. I could not be more regretful of that mistake. It was unintentional. I apologize, those words were never meant to be hurtful to anyone, they were an accident of my distraction and a product of news sensationalism. I am deeply saddened by the pain that this whole situation has caused the victims of the devastating earthquake in China.”
  • Is the new television series, “Swingtown” to risque for TV? The show is based on two couples and their swinging lifestyles. Molly Parker, who plays Susan Miller, a wife who got knocked up in high school and hasn’t been intimate with any other man, says, “While the show doesn’t shy away from adult content, it is really not about sex. I think people are ready to take an honest and fun look at this time.” Susan and her husband are introduced to the swinging lifestyle by the Deckers, a former stewardess and airline pilot. Lana Parrilla plays Trina Decker and describes her character’s relationship with her husband. “There is a trust and openness between these two that you don’t expect.” Grant Show, who plays Mr. Decker adds, “As fun as it is, as sexy as it is, it is a commentary on a historical time.” The show premieres tonight at 10pm on CBS.
  • George Takei is considering mending his rift with former Star Trek co-star William Shatner by inviting him to his upcoming gay wedding. Takei claimed that Shatner was egotistical and insisted on numerous close-ups during filming. Takei’s partner Brad Altman says Shatner might get an invitation to the wedding in September, but then again he might not. He explains, “We have only 200 seats. Our contact list has, like, 3500 names, so we have to whittle it down. I don’t know if William Shatner is going to make the cut.”
  • Oprah Winfrey is elated that Barack Obama has clinched the Democratic presidential nomination. Winfrey, a well known and outspoken supporter of Obama, issued a statement showing her support. “I’m euphoric, I’ve been doing the happy dance all day. I’m so proud of Barack and Michelle Obama and what this means for all of us - the new possibilities for our country. And if he wants me to, I’m ready to go door to door.”
