The intense discourse over Oscar-winning actress Jamie Lee Curtis alongside Bowen Yang and Matt Rogers in a video at the 2025 Las Culturistas Culture Awards has gotten an official response and clarification from the Las Culturistas cohosts.Sign up for the Out Newsletter to keep up with what's new in LGBTQ+ culture and entertainment delivered three times a week straight (well) to your inbox!The fan reaction and news coverage of an interaction between the Las Culturistas cohosts and Curtis was addressed by Rogers in a video from Instagram stories in which he noted this will be "our only comment on the matter.""Anything that happens on the Las Culturistas Culture Awards red carpet or purple carpet, as it were is unserious. You cannot make it serious," Rogers said. "I can't express how fun it is to watch it get, like, real media coverage. It's crazy. It's part of the joke. But you cannot Please don't start something between us and Jamie Lee Curtis when there's nothing there, you guys."Rogers added, "That was the first time we were meeting, and she was being funny, and we were being funny back. She came out and brought a lot of energy, and we're grateful to her. We're grateful to everyone. So, please, it's not that serious; it's the Culture Awards. I love you guys so much."In a previous video, Rogers clarified what fans can expect from the Las Culturistas podcast this week and shared some general context about how things are going. "As you can imagine, it's been a crazy week, and Bowen is in China visiting family," he explained. "We're putting together the Culture Awards kind of at the same time So we are busy, to say the least, and we're gonna take the week off the podcast."Rogers added, "We're gonna release the nominations as one big, full episode, so it'll at least be something, but we just need a break. The good news is, the Culture Awards is one of the craziest things that's ever been committed to celluloid. We're gonna deliver you a chaotic mess of a fever dream of a gay fantasia on themes.""So, thanks for understanding this week. We out," he concluded.The moment that inadvertently sparked this misunderstanding happened in a video posted by Vulture while covering the 2025 Las Culturistas Culture Awards purple carpet. The video, titled "What's My Line," was described as "a Vulture series where we ask what pop culture quote is stuck in your head."This particular video started with Rogers quoting Reese Witherspoon as Elle Woods ("What, like it's hard?") in Legally Blonde. It then featured Yang quoting Julia Roberts as the title character in Erin Brockovich: "I'm not talking to you, bitch!"Yang's enthusiastic Erin Brockovich line delivery seemingly prompted Curtis to leave her own red-carpet interview so that she could apparently reprimand Rogers and Yang. "Listen, bring the whole fucking thing down," Curtis said while gesturing that they should be less loud."You're gonna hate this show then," Yang replied."We'll sit you in the back," Rogers added. "Hey, maybe you could bring it up!"Curtis was kidding, and so were the Las Culturistas cohosts, as clarified by Rogers in his new Instagram videos.@vultureWe asked people on the purple carpet at the Las Culturistas Culture Awards what pop culture line is stuck in their head @bowenyang @mattrogerstho @jamieleecurtis @rachelbloom @meredithmarks @joelkimbooster #AaronJackson @gertie_bird @heathergay_slc @bronwynnewportIt's also worth noting that Rogers and Yang have had a great relationship with Vulture having done recaps and interviews for the publication about reality shows like RuPaul's Drag Race, Queer Eye, and America's Next Top Model for quite a few years which certainly adds to the meta humor of this entire situation.The Las Culturistas Culture Awards 2025 ceremony airs on Tuesday, August 5, on Bravo. The telecast will be available for streaming on Peacock the next day.See on Instagram
