“Actor Jonah Hill told radio host Howard Stern on Tuesday that he lost his cool with a paparazzo and is heartbroken that he used a “disgusting” homophobic slur.
Celebrity gossip site TMZ early Tuesday morning released a video of the incident in which Hill tells a man following him to “Suck my d—, you fââ.”
The actor, who was nominated for Academy Awards for his roles in the 2011 film “Moneyball” and last year’s “The Wolf of Wall Street,” told Stern he never meant to insult gay people.”* The Young Turks hosts Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian break it down.

Personaly, I never got mad at Jonah for saying that. He apologized almost immediately and it was sincere.
I only felt that he should know better;
and Ana was very much to the point. It is a habitual thing that just “comes out” and it only goes in to tell you how seeped into our culture this word/insult has become that even a public figure who’s openly supportive of the community can say that word when he’s pushed to his limits…
And I think whatever consequences you guys talked about, he’s suffered them from his gays already, trust me ;)
