How to Kill a Career In One Easy Step: Call Date Rape a 'Good Thing'

Frankly, I wouldn't know who this guy was if he passed me on the street, but he's apparently a popular celebrity of some kind, though maybe not for long.

Whatever the case, he sounds like an idiot.
RHYS Ifans has provoked outrage amongst rape support groups after apparently making light of date rape in an interview.

Showbiz spy says the Notting Hill star was recently asked by UK station Radio Q to comment on a track by the band The Gutter Twins.

He expressed approval for the group, saying: "It's kind of like being date raped, which I liked."

Asked by the presenter if date rape is a good thing, Ifans continued: "Well, yeah, for guys."

And the remarks, which are due to be broadcast in the U.K. this week, have prompted anger from rape crisis groups.
