Hollywood For The Gays

Despite Prop 8 passing in California earlier this week we still have people protesting it and trying to get this ban on gay marriage lifted. Throughout the campaign we had Hollywood on our side and we still do! Here's what some Hollywood stars had to say about it

Melissa Ethridge [Out and proud lesbian] whom married in 2003 to her lesbian partner.
"Without the right to marry in California, I don’t think I should have to pay taxes because I am not a full citizen. But there is a lot I can do with the extra half a million dollars that I will be keeping instead of handing it over to the state of California. Oh, and I am sure Ellen will be a little excited to keep her bazillion bucks that she pays in taxes, too."

Ellen DeGeneres [out and proud lesbian] married to wife Portia de Rossi in 2003
"So there was a demonstration here on Wednesday night and just before I walked out here, I was watching the news and there is a huge, huge, peaceful demonstration going on in the streets, and I say, good for you, and I support you, and if I weren’t here, I’d be out there with you.”

Rosie O' Donnell [out and proud lesbian]
“I AM AGAINST PROP 8. DUH"




Samantha Ronson [secret lesbian lover of Lindsay Lohan
“I guess people care more about farm animals than they do their fellow man, that’s really sad to me. Yes, I am glad that the chickens will have more room and better conditions as they wait to die, but I just think it’s frightening that people show more compassion for tomorrow’s dinner than for the chef.”

Madonna [gay pop icon and advocate]
"I am sad because African-Americans are equal finally, but gay marriage is not"





Christina Aguilera [gay pop icon and advocate]
“I think it’s discrimination, I don’t understand how people can be so closed-minded and so judgmental. We chose an African-American president who means so much in a time in history of great change and open-mindedness. Why is this any different? It just doesn’t make sense to me.”
