Got Milk? Antony Didn't

It seems like instead of concentrating on making music that is actually listenable and not some cheesy exercise in twee, fey, anachronistic pop, Antony Hegarty of Antony and the Johnsons is too busy demonizing straight actors for playing gay roles in Hollywood flicks. Particularly irksome to Hegarty was Sean Penn's recent portrayal of slain San Franciso politician Harvey Milk, the first openly gay man elected to public office here in the US. He actually said as much to New York magazine recently:

“It’s like blackface to me … it’s a continuing Hollywood minstrel show, co-opting queer stories and perversely building up the careers of these heterosexual bastards with the plumage of effeminacies, that they can wear this plumage of effeminacies without having to really be accountable”

Really, dude? Penn and the rest of 'em co-opting your "plumage of effeminacies"? Is that the problem? Give us a fucking break. Make some decent music and then get back on the soapbox if you like, but please. Ugh.
