WWGD (What Would Grams Do)?

Michelle Williams, who played troublemaker Jen Lindley on Dawson’s Creek, and is currently nominated for an Academy Award for her performance in Brokeback Mountain, has been disowned by the Santa Fe Christian School, the private high school she attended. Page Six of the New York Post says the school is more than offended that she took part in the film which has sparked controversy due to its homosexual theme matter. Headmaster Jim Hopson was quoted saying, "We don’t want to have anything to do with her in relation to that movie." He later went on to say that, "Michelle does not represent the values of this institution…Brokeback Mountain basically promotes a lifestyle that we don’t promote."

Funny that it took them so long to expel her, if her involvement with such risqué subject matter was really the reason. On Dawson’s Creek, Jen’s best buddy was gay. In If These Walls Could Talk 2, she played Linda, half of a lesbian couple. And in The Station Agent, her character Emily palled around with gay hot dog truck vendor Joe Oramas. Looks like Brokeback did just that…
