Shilpa Shetty - Richard Gere Kiss controvercy


Poor little Shilpa Shetty. Stupid Richard Gere and his grabby, sexually provactive hands have her in tons of trouble despite the face that it happened like, a million years ago. I don’t know when exactly, but I’m pretty sure it was around the time Courtney Love was still looking vaguely human.

At Mumbai airport briefly detained Shetty, refusing to let her out the country, saying she was still wanted for obscenity charges filed in the wake of the public kiss, her publicist Dale Bhagwagar said Thursday. Shetty was in tears late Wednesday after being stopped at the airport while on her way to Berlin where the musical “Miss Bollywood” opens this weekend, said Bhagwagar. Shetty plays the musical’s lead role. In April Gere publicly kissed shetty at an AIDS awareness event in India, sparking an outcry among conservative hardline Hindus, who claimed they had violated the country’s strict anti-obscenity laws. A regional court issued arrest warrants against Gere and barred Shetty from leaving the country. The order was soon overturned by the Supreme Court. But the Supreme Court ruling did not show up


in the immigrationdepartment computer system, Bhagwagar said. “She called me in the middle of the night and was in tears,” said Bhagwagar, adding Shetty was finally permitted to join her dance troupe after prolonged questioning. “I can understand something like this if I’d committed a criminal offense. But what was my offense, when I’m just an actor, going to perform a musical on foreign land,” Bhagwagar quoted Shetty saying.


Isn’t it weird that Richard Gere always ends up in these bizarre sexual positions? First the gerbil thing and now this kiss that seems to have offended the nation of Apu Nahasapeemapetilon? I feel like he should go away and live the asexual life of a eunuch so as not to cause anymore trouble. That or shack up with Jared from Subway. It’s kind of the same thing.
