HOLLYWOOD, California (The Adobo Chronicles® ) – It is not uncommon for Hollywood celebrities to check into rehab to deal with drug or alcohol addictions. But tonight, actor/screenwriter/producer Matt Damon checked into a little-known Los Angeles facility that treats patients with diversity cluelessness.

During the season premiere of HBO’s “Project Greenlight,” Damon shut down producer Effie Brown, a black woman, when she suggested that a diverse directing team might be better suited to direct a film whose only black character was a prostitute.

“When we’re talking about diversity, you do it in the casting of the film, not in the casting of the show,” Damon said.

Damon’s comment immediately went viral, with both conservatives and liberals criticizing the white actor for his insensitive take on diversity.

Realizing that his Holllywood career might be on the line and that his millions of fans could abandon him, Damon voluntarily decided to check into the diversity clinic.

The diversity clinic is a facility operated by the NAACP which aims to rehabilitate famous people who suffer from serious symptoms of racial bias and insensitivity.

Damon is expected to check out in two weeks and would be able to continue with his role in “Project Greenlight.”

LOS ANGELES, California  (The Adobo Chronicles® ) – Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump has some harsh words for actor Matt Damon.

On Wednesday,  Damon described Trump’s speech on immigrants as “xenophobic,” “disgusting” and “dehumanizing” in an exclusive interview with EFE, the Spanish International News Agency.

Damon, 44, is married to an Argentine immigrant with whom he has three children.

The actor said he did not know “how to respond” to Trump’s comments, who had called illegal Mexicans “rapists” and “drug traffickers” and proposed deporting 11 million immigrants in the country and building a wall separating United States from Mexico.

“He is talking about anyone who lives south of our border in inhuman terms. He is talking about my wife, my daughters,” said Damon.

In response, Trump called Damon, ‘Anti- White’ and ‘Pro-Martian.’ “He should be deportd to planet Mars,” he said.

Damon is currently promoting his new movie “The Martian.”
