J.K. Rowling Says She’ll Never Forgive Emma Watson And Daniel Radcliffe
Rowling, 58, is the author behind the ‘Harry Potter‘ books, which have sold millions of copies worldwide.
It’s also been turned into one of the most successful film franchises in history.
The franchise has been mired in controversy in recent years due to the author’s views on sex and gender.
And now, Rowling has hit out at the two of the biggest stars of the movies, vowing she’ll never forgive them.
It all started in 2020 when Rowling retweeted an op-ed which discussed ‘people who menstruate’, she appeared to take issue with the fact that it didn’t say ‘women’.
The writer would tweet: “‘People who menstruate’.
“I’m sure there used to be a word for those people. Someone help me out. Wumben? Wimpund? Woomud?”
Although she faced a ton of backlash, Rowling refused to backtrack on her words and went on to say: “If s** isn’t real, there’s no same-s** attraction. If s** isn’t real, the lived reality of women globally is erased.
“I know and love trans people, but erasing the concept of s** removes the ability of many to meaningfully discuss their lives. It isn’t hate to speak the truth.”
In 2022, Rowling would release a book titled ‘The Ink Black Heart’, under her alias Robert Galbraith.
It’s a crime thriller about a YouTuber called Edie Ledwell, who releases a cartoon which is criticised as being racist, ableist, and transphobic.
Rowling was slammed on X, formerly Twitter over the new book, with one person tweeting: “I just finished reading ‘The Ink Black Heart’. How can I describe it? – Utterly transphobic and ableist. – Poorly written. – Unnecessarily verbose. – Painfully long. – The worst of the series so far.”
Another said: “If any person personifies how becoming very wealthy dulls you from the humanity that made you successful in the first place, it’s J.K. Rowling.
“Imagine writing a whole pity party of a book because trans-Twitter was mean to you after you were mean to them.”
Several Harry Potter stars have also opposed Rowling’s views.
“During this time of transition, his family asks that you please respect their wishes for privacy and grace. The Simpson Family”
News of Simpson’s death this week has prompted a number of internet users to remember Nicole and Goldman, with many taking to X to share tributes.
“Peace and light to the families of Ron Goldman and Nicole Brown Simpson,” one person writes.
Another X user posts: “RIP Ron Goldman and Nicole Brown Simpson!”
OJ had reportedly been battling prostate cancer in recent years, and his health took a turn for the worse of late, with him landing in hospice care within the past few months.
“My health is good,” he had told Twitter followers earlier this year in a post.
“Obviously I’m dealing with some issues, but hey I think I’m just about over it and I’ll be back on that golf course hopefully in a couple of weeks.”
“On April 10th, our father, Orenthal James Simpson, succumbed to his battle with cancer,” his family confirms.
