This month during a standup performance, Tracy Morgan made inflammatory comments about homosexuals. In his statements he declared that if his son were gay, he would pull out a knife and stab him. Then, Morgan apologized and admitted having gone too far.
My ‘Big Greek Fat Wedding’ star Nia Vardalos apologized for Tracy Morgan’s anti-gay statements, in an essay penned for the Huffington Post.
”I would like to apologize to our entire gay and lesbian community that this hate still exists”, she wrote and added, “I’m sorry someone can stand on a stage, spew violent, hateful words and images, then issue an apology, be described as not-really-like-that by his employers and co-workers, and go back to work”.
Nevertheless, she feels optimistic that this hate will soon end and that the gay and lesbian community will be more accepted in the near future. Vardalos apologized for Morgan’s tough behavior against homosexual people and hopes that Morgan’s apology will be accepted.
