Gay Fray: Anne Rice, Chaz Bono, Zach Braff & Tammy Bruce spout off

First, Kristy McNichol, a well-known TV star from the 1970s & 1980s, finally told the world, at 49, she is gay. Her publicist is quoted by People magazine as saying:

”She hopes that coming out can help kids who need support. She would like to help others who feel different.”

Good, bad or whatever … the famous have a lot to say about LGBT issues

Chaz Bono:

I’m really disappointed in Rolling Stone article, I spent two days with the writer and 20 min on bottom surgery to educate him about it.

Anne Rice:

I believe in the separation of church and state. It concerns me that tax dollars are going to support churches (through tax exemptions) that spend millions to try to influence legislation and elections. There is something gravely immoral about the war of the Roman Catholic Church on gay Americans.

Christopher Rice:

@chescaleigh This white guy thinks your vid is brilliant. Have you considered doing one about Gay White Guys Who Think They’re Black Ladies?

Rosanne:

rick s you are gay as a son of a bitch and stop trying to hide it girl! everyone knows u gay. get off the anti gay harangue u hide bhind!

Joan Rivers:

Rick Santorum says homosexuality is a chosen behavior, and he’s right. Obviously the 8 gays in Iowa CHOSE not to vote for him in the caucus.

Bill Bellamy:

#CanSomebodyTell me why it seems like Atlanta is a Gay Planet for Black Dudes? #justasking?? The Lennox Mall gotta be Jupiter! lol

Zach Braff:

Dear Gay Republicans, whats your dealio? … I keep it pretty darn apolitical on here. I try very hard to. But I have too many gay friends to refrain from bashing Santorum.

Mike Epps:

Gay people are such great dressers because they’ve spent a lot of time in the closet.

Tammy Bruce:

Memo to Santorum: Gingrich has had more spouses than any Mormon candidate or, in this case, anygayperson.
