Ellen Page Responds To Matt Damon's Comments About Gay Actors

"He doesn't have a point because he related it to sexuality."

Ellen Page did an interview with Metro Weeklyand when they brought up Matt Damon's recent controversial comments on gay actors, you can be sure she had something to say.

The magazine asked Page if she felt Damon, who said actors would be better off if they didn't reveal their sexuality, had a point.

"He doesn’t have a point because he related it to sexuality," Page responded.

She continued:

"Heterosexual actors and actresses do not have to go to great lengths to hide their sexuality. Yes, of course, keep your private life private. Protect yourself. Have boundaries. When you’re a public person, you need to think about your safety. But if it’s in relation to sexuality, then no — that’s an unfair double standard. Heterosexual people walk down the red carpet with their partners all the time, they talk about their children..."

The actress did sound hopeful that a day will soon come when it won't be such a big deal to see a gay couple walking down the red carpet.

"I think that will change," she said. "And it’s going to continue to change the more people come out."
