Project Runway’s Santino Rice is pissed at Fashion Indie.  So basically, my big stupid mouth has gotten us in trouble, again.

Yesterday, I wrote about Santino Rice’s staring role in L.A. Zombie, a “film” from director Bruce LaBruce which is basically a gay porn filled zombies shot in L.A.

Yup, can’t make that junk up. The movie is literally about gay zombies who give brain rather than eat them.

While scenes in which the blood drenched undead fuck open carcasses was totally worth mentioning, it was Santino’s familiar face that seemed the most suited for Fashion Indie. Guess I was wrong.

Santino’s pissed about the article cause I apparently made defamatory statements against him by suggesting that he might have a gay sex scene in the movie.  You can view the article HERE. I’ve since made corrections to the article per Santino’s request, who claims he’s a homeless person acting like a homeless person in the film.

I’m not sure which part is false. He’s listed as an actor in the movie, has suggestive photos in which he’s grabbing his crotch rocket on the website, and his bio lists him as “bisexual” all of which suggests to me that a) He’s in a gay porn, and b) He more than likely has a gay scene in it.

Sorry if I misread those facts Santino.

Eitherway, seems like he’s pissed. Check out Santino’s first letter to me below…

Dear Daniel Saynt,

I’m glad this article was brought to my attention today. Good luck trying to put your hang-ups on me! I’ve never been involved in porn or engaged in any sexual activity on-camera ever [Hard to say you've never been involved in porn, when you're listed as an actor in a porn.].

Your article is completely fabricated [With the exception that it's pretty much all true.]. The malicious, false, and defamatory statements you are making will haunt you, not me! [The only thing haunting me is the idea of you in porn.] I can barely comprehend how you thought you could make up something like this? Did you think I wouldn’t ever see it? [No, I figured you would since you seem like the type of person who Google's himself daily.]

I proudly support the art  of filmmaker Bruce La Bruce [Wait, art? Filmmaker? Don't try making a turd shine, buddy.]. True, I made a cameo in a scene in his new L.A. Zombie movie [So I didn't lie. You are in a gay porn.]. I played the role of a homeless person [Must have been a real stretch for you to "act" like a loser.]. The photo you’ve attached with your article is of me from the set of the film. Beyond that, the rest are lies you’ve fabricated. I can understand that this film will not be everyone’s cup of tea [Come on, who doesn't love them a little bloodied butt banging.], but who are you to define something you’ve never seen? This article is meant solely to try to marginalize me and put your fears of sexuality, homosexuality, and really anything that’s not of a conservative, heteronormative nature to shame [I'm in fashion sweetie, being afraid of gays is like being afraid of chiffon. It just doesn't happen.]. Well, Fuck you, I will never conform to what you or anyone deems appropriate [YEAH, FIGHT THE POWER ... by acting in a gay porn]! I also will never tolerate people telling lies against me and trying to harm me personally, financially or emotionally. You’re obviously ignorant and merely crafting lies to gain some traffic on your poorly written blog [Would totally agree with you except for the fact that you're the only one Googling yourself. Surprise, surprise ... you're a nobody.]. You’re now destined to learn many facts about me [Are you talking intimate facts like "Daddy didn't love me" or well known facts like "You're a failed designer that nobody cares about"?].

It’s unfortunate that I have to defend myself against such a slanderous article [The only way this is slanderous is if you consider a career as a gay porn star to be a negative thing, but considering you're role in the film, you're suggesting otherwise.] Hopefully the like-minded, creative individuals who understand art will read my comment and understand what is reality and what is fiction [Again with the loose reference to "art"] Two-fold, my legal representation that will surely agree what you’ve written and posted is criminal and libelous, will be contacting you [If you don't want people to think you're a gay porn star, don't star in gay porn dude. Any lawyer with two brain cells would tell you that someone reporting on your role in a movie isn't guilty for libel. Pretty simple stuff dude.].

I’ve acquired all of your information and hopefully will settle this in the days to come [Was that hard to come by, it's on every page of FashionIndie.com.]. Good luck trying to defend yourself, your lies are all right here on the internet. As for me, I have nothing to be ashamed of [So why are you so angry?]. I will prosecute you to the fullest extent of the law and someday you, and people like you, will learn what you can and can’t leisurely write about someone.

Sincerely,

SANTINO

Now for my response…

Dear Santino,

It’s safe to assume that if someone is listed as an actor in a gay porn that they very we’ll might be in a gay porn. I’m not a porno scientist by any means, but if the dick fits, wear it (not to sure what that means, but you get the point.).

I’ve added an update to the story and am sorry if I got the wrong information about the film. In the future, if you don’t want people to make to make incorrect assumptions, don’t put yourself in situations in which they might.

I’m really sorry that you felt that you felt my article was malicious, false or defamatory. I didn’t mean it to be and my intent was not to effect you personally, financially or emotionally.

Hugs and Disses,

Daniel Saynt

Check back tomorrow on Fashion Indie for more to the story.

Santino and I have been bitching back and forth on Facebook all weekend and his letters are just priceless.

Yeah, it’s going to be one of those weeks.
