Matthew Mitcham Will Not Retire
Although Matthew Mitcham, the Australian diver crashed out in the 10m platform semi-finals yesterday he has decided that he will not be retiring from the sport after the London 2012 Olympics.
Mitcham, one of the very few openly gay male athletes in this year’s Olympics in London is quoted in the Sydney Morning Herald as saying:
“Before coming to London, I’d pretty much decided that this was going to be my last Olympics. I was going to retire, just because of all the injuries and everything.
“I couldn’t see it getting any better, just how wearing 10m is on the body … but once I got here, all bets were off.
“The Olympics is just the most amazing experience and I never want to miss another one again. In no matter what capacity — whether it’s a diver, maybe just a springboard diver, or whether it’s media or anything, I’m definitely going to be in Rio, no matter what.”
Mitcham told the press that there were other options open to him such as the 3m springboard. He has experience as a 1m, 3m and 10 metre diver.
“I do have a history as a springboard diver, but I’ve never been solely a springboard diver”, Mitcham said.
“I’ve always been a platform diver and done springboard either to fill spots, or just because I was sort of semi-OK at it.
“But I have been in discussion with Chava my coach about the possibility of becoming solely a springboard diver … I’m not really going to take a holiday when I get home — I’m actually going to start working on the strength required to be a springboard diver straight away.
“It’s going to take a long time to get my thighs as big as [China’s] He Chong’s.”
After failing to reach a place in the finals, Mitcham said:
“I could never have done more.
“That’s what I have to say to make myself feel better … [and] no one can take that [gold medal] away from me, and that’s another thing that I can use as consolation, that I’m always going to be an Olympic champion.
“So there.”
His failure to achieve gold this year disappointed many of his fans, after promising to dive naked if he achieved gold.

Bret Easton Ellis Slams Matt Bomer Casting
American Psycho author Bret Easton Ellis slams casting Matt Bomer in Fifty Shades Of Grey Movie.
The best selling author Bret Easton Ellis said that casting the openly gay actor Matt Bomer in a film adaptation of the record-breaking novel ‘Fifty Shades Of Grey’ would be wrong because his sexuality ‘complicates the role’.
The Hollywood star, who was last seen doing the full monty in the box office smash ‘Magic Mike’ has been rumoured to take the role of Christian Grey in an adaptation of E. L. James’s erotic bestseller.
On hearing the news Ellis took to social media network Twitter to Tweet that it would be ‘absolutely ludicrous’ to give the role to Bomer.
‘Okay. Let’s finalise this. Matt Bomer is totally hot and a very good actor. He is NOT right for Christian Grey and it complicates the role,’ he posted on Twitter.
The author, who has admitted to having relationships with both men and women added: ‘I don’t care how good an actor you are but being married to another man complicates things for playing CG.’
He denied that his views were homophobic saying it was: ‘about an intensely straight actor wanting absolutely to screw Ana Steele.’
Ellis had expressed an inclination to adapt the novel into a screenplay, but confirmed that he was no longer in the running for the project.
