As we continue to focus our attention on Jason Momoa’s entrance to heartthrob status, some H8Rs want to ensure that our fantasies die a swift death. While Jason was at Comic-Con, taking part in the Game of Thrones panel, he made a bad comment about his character and his “favorite” part of the show, and he made a bad “joke” about how he “gets to rape beautiful women and have them fall in love with me.” It was a bad joke. It was a dumb joke. And honestly, we don’t love Jason for his mind, so let’s not dwell on it.
Anyway, in a new interview, Jason seems to be clarifying his “rape joke” by becoming Mr. Sensitive Pants:
He’s six foot five and built like the incredible hulk but Conan the Barbarian star Jason Momoa has a softer side. The half Hawaiian, half Irish film star told US news he did not enjoy all the rough sex he had to play for his role for HBO’s Game of Thrones.
“It was very hard because I have never done that to anyone before,” the 32-year-old said. “But the good news was I’m not a rapist. It really did not feel good. There was not enjoyment. I don’t like women crying when I’m making love to them.”
Momoa was concerned about the reaction he would get from his wife Lisa Bonet, mother of his two young children.
“I didn’t want my wife to see Game of Thrones,” he said. “But she ended up getting obsessed. She was dreaming about it she was so obsessed.”
Momoa admitted his role in the early episodes was entirely based on sex with his co-star, British beauty Emilia Clarke, 24.
“My wife and I didn’t go to the premiere. I was like ‘I don’t do anything except do Emilia Clarke for the first two episodes. I don’t even speak. We don’t need to go and watch that’.’
[From Monsters & Critics]
There. See? He doesn’t really like those scenes. He doesn’t want you to cry while he’s making love to you, okay? Even if you’re weeping with joy.
In addition to people trying to kill my Momoa crush with his rape comments, there were some questions as to why I haven’t called Jason and Lisa Bonet out for being homewreckers. First of all, that was news to me. I don’t keep up with Momoa’s sexual history, as my Momoa crush is still relatively new. But yes, Momoa began his relationship with Lisa Bonet while he was involved with Jade MacKinnon – Jason and Jade were engaged, it seems, when he ran off and impregnated Lisa Bonet.
So, I’m not saying Jason is perfect. He’s not. He’s not an ideal boyfriend, in reality or fantasies. I’m not saying he’s even that bright – because I don’t think he is very smart, honestly. I’m just saying the dude is hot. Pretty and dumb.
These are new photos of Jason at last night’s UK premiere of Conan the Barbarian. Hot. I HATE those frames, though.

I saw him at first as Khal Drogo and yes those scenes were quite rough and I don’t get his appeal that much. Maybe because I like guys who are pretty and smart 😛
*giggles thru entire post* he’s got the johnny depp grunge thing goin on.
My god, that screen capture of the cast reactions is brilliant. I think Peter Dinklage’s scrunchy face is my favourite.
Correct me if I’m wrong but usually when you say “I get to do…” you mean you’re given the chance to do something that’s supposed to be wrong but you find it cool to do in a series/movie. It felt like he said it in a positive way, sorry.
Now he’s trying to downplay it (the unfortunate joke).
I don’t find him attractive at all. I guess I like them smarter too 😉 And a little cleaner looking.
Yeah, love the faces the GoT cast makes at that comment.
Emilia Clarke did say how nice he was and sorry for those scenes, before he ever said that (yeah, am a GoT nerd, follow all the interviews :P), so I don’t think he meant it.
I like Nikolaj Coster-Waldau the most from them (hot Danish guy).
He did a funny interview here:

where he also mentions not wanting to arm wrestle Jason.
I’d hit it
Ok. I like him a little bit more now, especially with the glasses. It makes him look smart, which I’m sure he is not.
He’s hot and manly. reminds me of the rock but with hair. I’m liking it. I hope his career Blows up cause I like looking at him. Lol
“I didn’t want my wife to see Game of Thrones,” he said. “But she ended up getting obsessed. She was dreaming about it she was so obsessed.”
That is so funny! They’re a cute couple! Hope his newfound success doesn’t cause any waves..
I guess I lucked out, ’cause hubs is 6’5″ AND smart!
I’m not admiring JM for his mind right now, OK? 😉
Interesting. First Jeremy Irons and now Jason Momoa. It seems men that make disgusting remarks get a pass if people find them attractive in some way.
What did Jeremy Irons say?
Yeah, not digging Momoa after the rape joke. Seriously, after I saw that, my previously huge crush on the guy evaporated. Now when I look at him, all I see is a very overrated dudebro who’s full of himself.
All that notwithstanding, the headline for this post cracked me up. I guess Arnie wants to hear women’s lamentations, but not Momoa? 🙂
When did they get married?
Now read about what Jeremy Irons said.
Was a big fan of his, so it’s a big deal for me to say now that I’m not anymore.
Why do I give Jason more of a pass, even though I’m not nearly as great a fan of his?
He was at the comic-con, where fans went wild over everything the cast said. I believe he was looking for something funny to add and this thumbled out of his mouth randomly. Things he and Emilia said before and now after make me feel he did not mean it.
Also, he probably realized right away he said something foolish and suffered the embarassment where Irons did not.
Irons is older, with a longer career as a famous person and should know better.
Damn you, Jeremy, used to like you so much, but now I just can’t anymore!
Jeremy Irons:
“It’s gone too far. There are too many people in power with too little to do, so they churn out laws to justify their jobs.
I hope it’s a rash that will wear itself out. If a man puts his hand on a woman’s bottom, any woman worth her salt can deal with it. It’s communication. Can’t we be friendly?”
Yeah, that was bad. The guy never had to deal with harassment, so he thinks it’s just all about friendly communication, eh?
So over him and I liked him since he voiced Scar in the Lion King.
Actually have fun reading him getting chewed out in tons of comments on Oh no they didn’t:
http://ohnotheydidnt.livejournal.com/61788193.html?page=1#comments
He was in an interview, so he had all the time in the world to explain his views, unlike the GoT cast situation, where there were several famous people and a cheering crowd, clamoring for fun tidbits.
Still not digging Jason’s comment, but at least he knows he’s wrong.
He IS like The Rock with hair!! That’s why I love him so much. (Kudos to whoever said that.) Seriously, my crush on him is getting a little..out of control…
Bad eyeglasses and I saw the entire photo elsewhere and he’s wearing some ridiculous boots.
Man Meat Momoa needs a stylist because the boots, the fob, the vest all make me expect him next in a top hat & cane to complete a “Mr. Peanut” homage.
Get rid of the frames and the ‘finger’, Jason!
My goodness. Of all things, the last thing I give a sh*t about is some random comment he made at Comic Con.
All I want to know is does he get naked in Conan. 🙂
There’s really no recovery from that comment, IMO. Still, I like looking at him. Just don’t want to know what’s happening between his ears.
Oi! Rape comment + home wrecking + giving the finger = end of fantasy
“But the good news was I’m not a rapist.”
So, was he on the fence about whether or not he was a rapist before he did those scenes? How is that comment any better?
Pretty to look at, definitely. But someone who will cheat with you is perfectly capable of cheating on you, no wonder Lisa seems to cling to him like a sheet of fabric softener.
Yeah…my crush is fading fast with this one.
Can Lisa Bonet please write a book about how she sleeps with the hottest guys on earth? I’d buy 😀
Was it simulated sex or actual sex on GoT? Now i’m confused 🙁
Hot, yes he’s hot. In his interview he does seem to be on the dense side and to be honest he’s not the greatest actor. He does barbarian well but not an actors actor. I can’t do dumb. Its probably the one thing I can’t tolerate. You can be the most handsome man in the world but I’m completely turned off if he’s dumb. Its becomes a Seinfield moment for me when I realize a beautiful man is dumb.
sorry to nitpick but its SIMONE Jade Mackinnon
SimMone Jade Mackinnon, lol
He looks like Mickey Rourke in those frames!
He’s so hot. I’d do things to him.
I’d say he should just stop talking, but my crush is gone so it doesn’t matter anyway. Next!
Well at least he is man enough to admit his mistakes, no- one is perfect we all say things that are not meant to be offensive, but may come across sounding stupid and I’m not obsessed with the guy either 🙂
