British actor Rupert Everett says he is unimpressed with the way gay pride events have developed into party events, attracting what he calls "a generation of mindless drug addicts."
The 48-year-old Golden Globe nominee, who himself was quite a partyboy and worked as a male prostitute when he was young, said this to SX News:
"I think all these pride marches have lost their center slightly. If you encountered them in the beginning of the 1980s when the gay community was really in crisis with its back against the wall, they were very highly charged events about survival and trying to define ourselves and keep our heads up.
