A Christian Virgin in Hollywood?

Posted on | June 22, 2011 | 40 Comments

Sixteen-year-old Courtney Alexis Stodden, pictured above, is said to be an aspiring singer, but no one had ever heard of her until she married 51-year-old actor Doug Hutchison:

“We’re aware that our vast age difference is extremely controversial,” the couple told E! News in a statement released by their spokesperson. “But we’re very much in love and want to get the message out there that true love can be ageless.”
Stodden’s mother gave parental consent so the two could wed in Las Vegas.
“We are totally supportive of this marriage,” Krista Stodden told RadarOnline.com. “Doug is a wonderful man and we love him.”
She added, ““Courtney was a virgin when she married Doug. She is a good Christian girl.”

Oh, my goodness. The teen bride’s mom vouches for her prenuptial virginity and Christian faith? What could be less fashionable — indeed, what could be more politically incorrect — than a Christian virgin in Hollywood?

    Posted on this yesterday, McCain! Even got some Google hits from those searching for “COURTNEY ALEXIS STODDEN NUDE”: ‘Courtney Alexis Stodden, 16, Marries ‘Green Mile’ Actor Doug Anthony Hutchison, 51′

    He only married her to avoid jail time.. The wife can’t testify against her husband in an upcoming case. . .  IYKWIMAITYD

    Saw this on the Live at Five the other day and noticed she’s says she’s a Republican on her FB page too..  

  • daisy

    Every one of the adults in this case needs their natual a—s beat.

    Stacy McCain must be very proud of Alexis Stodden. McCain is known to be a strong supporter of teen motherhood, especially when the teen is married.

  • Joe

     Doug Hutchison was a very creepy dude in The Green Mile.  Yeah I know he was “acting” but he was creepy.

    Her mom also said that Alexia’s breasts are real.  Methinks we have a veracity issue in the family….

    A Christian Virgin in Hollywood Wait, this isn’t about Carrie Prejean?  

  • Joe

    She does not look 16 and she does look slutty.  If it was my daughter, I would not be happy. 

    And this Christian stuff sound like a bunch of BS to me. 

  • Anamika

    You can’t be virgin forever can you? Prejean was 23 when she got married, and 24 when she gave birth to her first child a couple of months ago.

    A Christian virgin Republican? No hope for this girl ever being accepted in Hollywood.

    Her mom also said that Alexia’s breasts are real. 
    So what you’re saying is that she’s old enough to get breast implants, but not old enough to be married?

  • Anamika

    No, she seems to imply that Alexia’s isn’t  young enough to be a virgin.

  • Joe

    Actually, you can be a virgin forever.  Believe it or not people actually do that. 

  • http://www.haemet.blogivists.com Roxeanne de Luca

    Stacy, you should know me well enough to understand that this triggers my maternal instincts.  I don’t think that this young lady is old enough for either breast implants or marriage, and I think that her parents are doing a terrible job of parenting her and protecting her.  In my world, 51-year-old men who have designs on 16-year-old girls wait for them to get out of high school, spread their wings in college, and become adults.  Well, decent men who truly love younger women do that.  Other men ought to be chased off by the fathers of young women, not married off to them.

    There’s clearly some serious issues going around here – a daddy complex from a girl who shouldn’t be with a man 35 years her senior, parents who get implants for a sophomore in high school, a creepy dude who should know better, and parents who embrace the creepy old dude rather than shoving a shotgun in his face.  As an example of Christian chastity, it’s among the worst.

    Also, Stace, you’re not a woman and don’t understand – or are missing – the underhanded ways in which slutty women pass themselves off as good girls to titillate men.  This particular “good Christian virgin” thing (most 16-year-olds are virgins, last I checked) is about that, not actually living the ideals of a Christian life. 

  • BLBeamer

    Those breasts are not real 16 year old breasts.

    The implied nudity is no less salacious even when wrapped in the flag.

    Her parents seem to have issues with telling – or facing – the truth.

    Did her mother mean the word “Christian” an an adjective or a noun?  There’s a world of difference!

    I don’t think she’s much of a singer, either, but then I prefer jazz and blues.

    Other than that:  Mr. Hutchison, well played, sir!

  • http://www.haemet.blogivists.com Roxeanne de Luca

    RSM is a Protestant, not a Catholic, so he’s not with us on the whole idea that lifelong virginity is ontologically superiour to the married state.  Nevertheless, I suspect he would agree that chastity and virginity are not the same things, and Prejean is living a chaste life.  Virginity matters for the never-married, not the married.

  • Anamika

    Agreed, and i can also think of women who get married and still be virgins for life.

  • http://thepagantemple.blogspot.com/ ThePaganTemple

    What gets me about this is all these people on YouTube bitching about her marrying an old guy, yet they are giving her hell about it in the comments of her videos. Sure, its terrible for her to be having sex with a man 36 years older than her, but its fine for numerous adults she doesn’t know to subject her to all manner of public ridicule and abuse. Some people just need to have their heads stomped like roaches.

    She’s got some good points, Stace.

    Also, Stace, you’re not a woman and don’t understand …

    Oh, Roxeanne, I understand pretty well, I think. I’m just stirring the pot a bit.

    When I see a mob of people working themselves up into a state of outraged indignation over a controversy like this, my natural instinct is to plant both feet on the “wrong” side of the argument and fight like hell against those who are absolutely certain of their own righteousness. This isn’t necessarily because I approve of whatever it is I undertake to defend, but rather because the self-righteous scolds tend to be rather unclear about what they deem to be moral principles. Also, I just enjoy a good fight from time to time.

    Perhaps you’ve noticed that folks who wouldn’t bat an eye about gay marriage are, for some reason, very critical about this particular heterosexual marriage. Think about that.

    Lots of people abbreviate my name as “Stace.” It’s no biggie.

    I’m shocked.  Unless there are Qualuud’s, champagne and non-consensual sodomy Hutchinson can never hope to be lionized as one of the all-time  greats.

  • Norman Invasion

    Yeah, she’s about 4 years too old, too.

  • http://twitter.com/Threedonia Threedonia

    Is it wrong that I giggled at the word “titillate”?

    Christian virgin… she was probably saving him from a felony.  Christianity?  I know as little about the status of her soul as we do her hymen so I’ll take her at her word for both — though I can see if the former is true by her actions.

    Man Norman Invasion… Hollywood has lost it’s touch.

    Inserting an “E” in mens names that end “cy” is one of my pet peeves, I trust you’ll not object if I continue tilting at that windmill.

    And this is why we love you, man.

  • http://thecampofthesaints.org Bob Belvedere

    Joe, when I saw the first picture [him with his head laying on her chest] I did a double-take because I thought I had read the headline wrong.  She looked like she was 51 and him 16.  She ceratinly in that pic looked like she had a few tire tracks on her.

    She lost me at “you’re not a woman and don’t understand.” What hubris.

    Perhaps you’ve noticed that folks who wouldn’t bat an eye about gay
    marriage are, for some reason, very critical about this particular
    heterosexual marriage. Think about that.

    Oh, I noticed.  I’ve also noticed how those who fight the hardest for gay marriage say in one breath that gays should marry and experience one of the greatest joys known to us on earth, and in the very next breath, say that ‘marriage is just a piece of paper’ and has no bearing on society, and that government has no interest in promulgating the institution.

    I fully agree that liberals, who don’t even start with a coherent definition of marriage, or the requirements of getting into one, are rather quick to judge the quality of other’s marriages.  But you’ll have to forgive my maternal instincts that are crying out for me – or any woman – to protect this young girl, not to give permission for her to marry.

    On a side note, if Da TechGuy and I were to put our heads together, I’m sure we could come up with a laundry list of reasons why this marriage shouldn’t happen (at least according to Catholic theology, but Miss Alexia is a Protestant, methinks).

    What hubris on your part, Steve in TN.  I didn’t tell McCain that he doesn’t understand mathematics, or the ways of the world; I was pointing out that he’s probably not as familiar as the distaff half of the population as to the many tactics that women use to reel men in. 

    Now, being a woman, I’m more than happy to sit quietly and listen to my man friends as they explain the male mind to me, interpret men’s actions, and tell me which men are worth dating and which men are scum who are pretending to be decent.  I doubt that you, Mr. “Roxeanne is a hubristic bitch”, would ever condemn women who are willing to learn from men about men, nor men who think that they have insight into the male mind tha many women lack, but, because I’m a woman and I had the unmitigated gall to point out that I might know something about my own sex that men don’t know, I’m full of myself.

    How pathetic.

    I use ‘Stace’ as a more personal version of ‘Stacy’ and because, in the context of some sentences, it doesn’t disrupt the rhythm of the sentence [a legacy of my days as a musician/songwriter].

  • http://thecampofthesaints.org Bob Belvedere

    You mean to tell me you fully understand women?  I’m nearly fifty and have tried to for most of my life and I’m willing to admit that, to a certain extent, it’s a fool’s errand. 

    Roxe gave us some damn good insights into the female mind.
