"GQ Australia has made a public apology to Taylor Lautner for a question which caused controversy in its recent profile interview of the Twilight star. The magazine had asked Lautner whether either Dustin Lance Black or Gus Van Sant had made a pass at him when the trio were spotted having dinner together. Black later wrote a blog criticising the magazine, asking: &amp;quot;I&amp;#039;m curious, will you be asking all of the handsome actors I&amp;#039;ve ever had the privilege of working with or meeting if I made passes at them as well?&amp;quot; Describing the line of questioning as a &amp;quot;clear attack on my character&amp;quot;, J Edgar screenwriter Black added: &amp;quot;I&amp;#039;m shocked that GQ would allow their writer to lean on the scurrilous, outdated stereotype that gay men are by nature sexual predators.&amp;quot; The magazine has now issued an apology through its official Facebook page, saying: &amp;quot;We&amp;#039;ve seen some of the comments floating around regarding our recent interview with Taylor Lautner and apologise if anyone was offended by anything in the article.  &amp;quot;It certainly wasn&amp;#039;t our intention to paint anyone in the story as a sexual predator. The point we were actually trying to push was that Taylor is irresistible to virtually everyone - regardless of sexuality or gender.&amp;quot; The statement added that the magazine had chosen Lautner as a cover star &amp;quot;because GQ Australia prides itself on offering readers the best possible advice and insights that help you [to] be modern, successful gentlemen&amp;quot;. The message has received a mixed reaction from Facebook users, with some feeling that the tone came across as more of a means of promoting the magazine rather than an apology.
