Denis Leary may have used his Rescue Me costar Steven Pasquale to provide the punchline for a homophobic anecdote last night on The Daily Show , but Pasquale would like it known that he never uttered the gay slur attributed to him. “I am an actor, and I live and work in New York City. I can honestly say that half the people I know, love and respect are gay,” he explained in a statement . “I simply didn’t say it. I’m not capable of saying it, anymore than describing my black friends as the ‘N’ word…I’m afraid Denis got his wires a little crossed in remembering that story.” [ Queerty ]
