I just googled it. Crazy I didnt hear about this. Glad they went for it.
I know, I don't follow entertainment news that closely or anything, but you'd think I would have heard about it sometime in the last 14 years.
Cue my conspiracy prone mind: Why would anyone not want us to know that great artists and personalities were trans, hmmmm? Wont have anything to do with pushing traditional family values, right? RIGHT?
It was fairly well reported then the first one transitioned, but their relevancy peaked during The Matrix. Also, some people like to maintain some level of private lives.
Good argument. Thanks for sharing.
If anything, the media usually pushes this stuff for engagement. I certainly knew all about Caitlyn Jenner's transition despite having no clue who she was before that.
Hmmm… I dunno. The media does keep a lot of things under wraps evidently. Could be incompetence though.
