Jax Taylor is a bartender/cast member on Bravo’s Vanderpump Rules with a penchant for exhibiting homophobic micro-aggressions on Twitter. But he’s not antigay because 50 percent of his friends are homosexual. Or something.
Over the weekend, 40-year-old Taylor got into an online spat with a complete stranger on Twitter.
What started as a thread about Adidas new line of NHL-inspired apparel quickly spiraled into a homophobic tirade with Taylor calling the man “ugly” and “fat” before accusing him of living in his parents’ basement.
“Buddy, again look at your ugly mug, and by the looks of that fat face you [couldn’t] fit into anything [Adidas Hockey] or any athletic apparel for that matter,” Jax raged. “Typical zit faced douche who chips company’s for attention. Go back to your parents basement homie.”
Taylor followed that up with a second tweet accusing the man on being a closeted frat boy who has gay sex with his roommate while wearing boat shoes.
“[You’re] the type of guy who is in frat and claims he loves women, but secretly is bending over his roommate ‘chadd’ while wearing boat shoes. 20 bucks says I hit the nail on the head with this loser.”
The man responded by tweeting screenshots of two different articles, one of which mentioned Taylor and his wife’s antigay pastor and another that mentioned a cheating scandal he was involved in.
“Also, maybe you too should not be the first to cast stones,” he wrote in the caption of his screenshots.
To which, Taylor replied by once again attacking the man’s sexuality, tweeting: “Look at this loser, it’s Friday night homie and [you’re a] straight man looking up ‘Page Six’ looks like I was right.”
After several people accused Taylor of being homophobic, he scrubbed the tweets from his page then insisted he’s not antigay, pointing to the fact that he worked at a gay bar for 15 years and that roughly “50 percent” of his friends are gay.
“I lived in West Hollywood for 15 years, worked at the abbey ( highest grossing bar in the country) (gay bar). I walked in 4 gay pride parades, I had my good friend Lance bass marry us, 50 percent of my friends are gay. But yes, You got me, I am homophobic… people are idiots,” he tweeted.

He sounds just like Karen, who can’t be racist because her best friend is Black.
Neither Bravo nor Taylor’s boss Lisa Vanderpump, who, herself, came under fire this year for cracking transphobic jokes on television, have issued any comment on the homophobic outburst.

He sounds more immature than homophobic.

Totally.
Aunt Sharon
More likely all of his friends are 50 percent gay.

Who? Never heard of this twat before reading this “article”, and still don’t know who he is.

He’s a “reality star”, meaning he is telegenic and has enough of a grasp of grammar and a large enough vocabulary to be understood without too much difficulty.

I didn’t even know that wearing boat shoes while having sex was a thing.

And today we were reminded that anyone that says that they: worked in a gay bar, walked in Pride parades, have gay friends, and got married by Lance Bass, can STILL be a homophobic douche nozzle. Anyone can be homophobic, even gays. Anyone can be racist, anyone can be misogynistic, and anyone can be anti-semitic.

We all have to understand that Jax will do anything for money. He married the woman who won’t leave him alone. He wanted to stay in the show and getting married was the best solution. Now we also have that old roommate of his who was gay and hinted on a couple of things. There is so much that Jax keeps hidden. Bless his little heart. This is a very unhappy individual, one day his whole world is going to fall apart.

LOL the jackass blocked me on twitter for asking him why he said all that if he isn’t homophobic. lol

They can’t be racist, they have a black friend and went to see a Tyler Perry movie. (Eye Roll)

Over 80 Gay, Lesbian and Trans candidates won election/re-election Iast night and this is the crap that Queerty leads with this morning.
You’re idiots Queerty, trending to the lowest common denominator; very similar the Jax. Himself.

All of people on “reality shows are just the lowest of the low. And we have the Kartrashians to thank for scraping the bottom of the barrel .. I.E. : some Americans – those who do watch/promote the trashy behavior these NO talent losers exhibit while acting out on these FAKE as hell “shows”. Jax is the perfect example of this: NO talent and a complete d-bag , X list loser !!

No one would watch these shows if everyone was Mensa level. It’s much more entertaining to watch people who barely function. It’s a modern-day carnival act.
Rock-N-RollHS
Oh, wait, you missed fat and frat phobic!

He’s not homophobic. He’s just a massive fool with a big mouth. And I have no issues at all about wearing boat shoes during sex. I have never considered it, but still no issues at all about doing it.
Sanjo
Maybe he meant all his friends are 50% gay.

we call people closet cases all the time….he’s a douche, but I don’t think this deserves all the attention it’s getting
