Jason Bateman
Okay, the details aren’t as provocative as the headline would indicate. Actor Jason Bateman is coming to theatres later this month opposite Jennifer Aniston in The Switch, but before going out to promote the movie he made sure that eager movie fans wouldn’t see the wrong thing when they Googled his name.
JasonBateman.com recently was a gay porn website, but the actor took legal action against the site that was using his name without permission. Now the domain is one of those generic “parked” website but at least it doesn’t display porn.
“Jason Bateman was a big gay porn site,” he told the Toronto Sun. “JasonBateman.com. It was for a long time. We sent some lawyers on that. It was worse—it wasn’t even a gay porn site. It was a gay porn hub. ‘From here you can go to thousands of porn sites.’”
The Switch opens on August 20.
