So with all the talk the last few months about the actors, directors, and writers we have enjoyed being jerks, trans phobic and saying controversial things on twitter.
My question is how are you able to separate the artists from the work? Are you able to and still enjoy things? Or are you not able to and it ruined things for you?
For me I could care less about the artist. Half the time I dont know who they are. Like in the case of The Mado I had no idea who Carano was even though I enjoy the show and knew who the character was.
In the case of Jk I love Harry Potter. I really enjoy the books, and love the movies. So I am not going to stop watching/reading. And when I do enjoy Potter I dont give Jk two thoughts because I am focused on the characters.
It is like that with movies and shows as well. I focus on the character that I am watching and not who plays them. Heck I still watch Bill Cosby stand up because it makes me laugh my butt off.
How about you. What are your alls views on how you handle artist/art situations?
