It really Is sad regarding DD. I’m a fan of both actors, but to some people in the fandom, Gillian can do no wrong whilst David is some sort of sex-addicted penniless actor who desperately needs the Mulder role.

It is very sad, and it’s also very untrue. David doesn’t need money. A simple research on Google would show those people that he is worth a few more millions than Gillian. After the X-FIles, he managed to be a lead actor and a producer on a show that lasted seven years and which ratings and international sales worked very very well. He literally created himself a brand new fandom for Californication. He wrote two books which both ended up with great reviews from the New York Times and if I’m not mistaken were also both bestsellers.
He’s going to self-produce Bucky Fucking Dent as a movie this year, because he happens to have the money (his words), and he’s living his best life and touring all around the world with his music. David Duchovny doesn’t need anyone’s pity and if he doesn’t want to say goodbye to Mulder it’s because he loves this character, he loves the series, he loves working with the crew and most of all, he knows already what it feels like to quit this character.
I don’t think I need to pinpoint that Gillian’s career outside The X-Files is a bit less successful so far, money-wise at least.

Everyone is on Facebook arguing over them takineg a knee and if that’s right or wrong, and here I am focusing on how freakin’ good they look in the picture.

Oh I’m not even gonna start debating about that, mostly because I had no idea it was a thing yesterday, so I’m with you on that!!

To a recent anon of yours—I don’t think GA was acting/cheating during the webbys. She seemed genuinely amused by DD.

Yes, I agree, and I think that’s what the anon said too, or I misunderstood? 🙂

While that was a funny « playlist » that GA reblogged, I don’t understand why the maker felt the need to put down DD. As if he was unworthy of his own wages, or was responsible for her getting paid less. #duchovnydefenseleague

I want to believe it wasn’t meant to be this way, that the songs title just fit this way and it was supposed to be funny. Gillian’s fight is for equal pay, not for her to make more than him, she isn’t worth more than him and vice versa. They’re costars and equals and I’m sure Gillian didn’t think it would raise some anger in the fandom when she chose to tweet it. I can see her finding it funny, and that’s all.

But if they want to give her back all the money they owe her for not paying her as much as him back then, I think it would be just fair, and I think David would think it’s fair too.
