JK Rowling vs. Pedro Pascal: Celebrity Feud Escalates Over Gender Rights
JK Rowling Fires Back at Pedro Pascal and Boy George in a Scathing Takedown
The world of celebrity feuds just got a whole lot juicier! Harry Potter author JK Rowling has been taking names, folks, and it seems like she's not afraid to throw some major shade at Hollywood star Pedro Pascal and pop icon Boy George.
It all started when Pedro Pascal, star of The Last of Us, publicly lashed out at Rowling on Instagram after she praised a Supreme Court ruling protecting women-only spaces. Pascal, 49, described the author's reaction as "awful, disgusting" and "heinous LOSER behaviour." But Rowling wasn't having it, and she hit back with some seriously savage tweets.
When asked about the drama in a new interview with Vanity Fair, Pascal doubled down on his attacks, claiming he acted because he "hates bullies." But Rowling was quick to respond, saying: "Can't say I feel very shut down, but keep at it, Pedro. God loves a trier."
The beef between these two is getting uglier by the minute, and it seems like no one's going to back down anytime soon. Pascal's comments were met with approval from LGBTQ+ outlet Gayety, which claimed he had "shut down" Rowling. But we're not buying it – this author isn't afraid of a little drama!
And if that wasn't enough, Rowling also took aim at Boy George after the singer blocked her on social media following a heated row. The 63-year-old Karma Chameleon star accused Rowling of being a "rich, bored bully" earlier this month, and things escalated quickly.
In response to George's jabs, Rowling launched into a no-holds-barred takedown, referencing his own criminal past (he was jailed for four months in 2009 after being convicted of assault and false imprisonment). Ouch! The drama is real, folks!
George, who has repeatedly voiced support for transgender rights, seemed to reignite tensions this week by mocking Rowling once more – this time suggesting she was a "muggle" (a term from the Harry Potter series used to describe non-magical people). But Rowling's not having it, and we can't help but wonder what's next in this celebrity catfight!
In an era where social media drama is always just a tweet away, one thing's for sure – these two aren't going down without a fight! And honestly, we're here for it. Bring on the popcorn, because this feud is about to get real!
