Wow. I hope he stays there until he get’s better. Maybe he just found himself another comedy routine. Hey, Martin did it after he was caught walking the streets looking crazy and confused.

The Entertainment Industry is a Pressure Cooker……Good Luck Katt….What you need a prayer, family and close friends. Wait question…Does he have a Wife ?

Katt done lost it! i guess you gotta be a little crazy to be that damn funny. LOL

Damn Kat..I hope he gets some help

I’m shock about Wanda Sykes coming out of the closet….

i swear katt williams is gay

Katt was probably hearing voices before. They probably was the ones telling him to demand an apology from BET.

not in shock about wanda. what surprises me is that she married her female lover. hollywood always knew about her, that’s why she was so heavily embraced. i used to love her show “wanda at large”. I always seen her as the type to be kickin her feet up with a heineken, yelling to her female shorty “where the sandwiches at?”

@5 Are you shocked that she came out publicly or at the fact that she is gay because I think it’s pretty safe to say we all knew that she was gay before this.

Not surprised at all about Ms Wanda. It was only a matter of time before she “came out”…

Poor Katt..Love him to death. My prayers go out to him and his family. He’ll be back at it making us roll with laughter in no time!

Wow! My peoples are from Sumter… what a small world. Hope we aint no kin, mental health problems are heriditary…

Wanda, wow… ok?

Wow, I pray that Katt will be alright…that behavior does not sound healthy!

Not at all surprised by WSykes….I was more surprised to learn that she was once married.

Hopefully KWilliams gets the help he needs. Another sad example of how too much exposure at once can affect you in ways you never imagined. Even entertainers must learn the art of keeping things simple and staying grounded.

wanda sykes had no idea..but hey thats her business.. and personally i think california is dead wrong for changing that my cousin is very pissed because her and her girlfriend always planned to move to california and get married there and thats like just crushin the dream..i agree with wanda you should be allowed to love whomever you choose.

I agree with 13….I was suprised when I saw her live and she talked about her EX. She just didn’t strike me as the married type…so I’m not at all shocked to know that she’s a lesbian….to each its own.

I am surprised to read this about K.Williams, I just watched his DC standup last night. I wish him well and I hope he makes it through this to laugh about it later. laughter is the best medicine

Not at all surprise about wanda i always knew she was gay….
I always knew there was something wrong with Katt, i think i have a sense for these things..

Good for Wanda! There are so many people living in the WORLD that don’t feel free to be the person they truly are and feel they have to hide their sexuality

Marriage is an agreement, that should be shared between two consenting adults. There are plenty of Heterosexual couples who don’t love each other and get married for all kinds of reasons, if there is a homosexual couple who wants to share in the right to marry someone because they LOVE EACH OTHER, then damn it they should be able to.

Especially in these hard economic times, Marriage, straight or gay should be endorsed! Households with 2 or more persons generally tend to do better!!!! it would surely be good for our economy. Just my opinion ya’ll

I hope Katt can get the help he needs and get through this.

LOL at #11….. it really is heriditary. I feel bad for Katt. I think Dave Chapelle put it best when he said that: “these people (celebrities) aren’t crazy, they are just a product of the environment.” Isn’t Katt going to jail soon or was suppose to be?

O and I figured Wanda was gay…. ecspecially when she came on the Ellen show and was speaking so passionately about the “gay” subject…

Wow it’s about time for black celebs to come out of the closet…maybe Latifah will be next.

lol @ Wanda, well she just confirmed what everyone already knew! Luvs her!

Wow, Katt sounds stressed, much like Martin Lawrence did before he lost it..

Sounds like a case of the ooooweee LOL (Anybody remember Martin)

i’m not suprise about wanda
hope kat get better

@ #6
I thought I was the only one that thought that. First time I saw him that’s what I thought. Dude is gay.
but…
Katt…what in the world?!?!?!? is he on something other than mary jane? I wish they had footage of this LOL!….i’m terrible

Wanda…. ugh!!! im sorry but i just cant see the point of same sex marriages, if your a women why the heck would you want to have a wife?? and the same goes for a man who wants a husband…to me thats just one of the weirdest things on earth, marriage was not made for two men or two women. I know im probably gonna offend someone but hey its the truth…

I DONT CAER BOUT THAT PROP 8 SHIT THAT NONE OF MY DAMN BUSSINES PEOPLE CHOSE TO MARRY THER OWN SEX BUT MY MOTHER TOLD ME TO VOTE AGAINST IT CUZ IT WAS AGAINST OUR RELIGION … BUT HEY LET THEM GET MARRIED THEY WILL BE JUGED ON JUGEDMENT DAY

Wanda sykes? wooow. If people want to believe that same sex is TRULY love then they should live somewhere where there accepted. If God didnt create REAL love which is a man and a woman there wouldnt be life here on this earth…how can a man and another man create life?? same for two women…that to me is not acceptable. I believe God created women and men for a perfect reason…not only to shape life and keep it flowing but to demonstrate the true and real power of love.

See this is what “FAME” does to you. I love Katt, but some people can’t handle “FAME”. I hope he pulls through. SMH

Wanda, Wanda, Wanda!!! LOL She is funny as hell!!! I wonder what made her finally come out? Oh well, more men for ME!!! LOL

# 25
same sex marriage is not weird and sick

2 girls and a cup is sick and weird.
painolympics is weird and sick..

honestly i believe being gay is a disorder, something that went wrong during the couarse of pubity that just didn’t go well.

Who am i to judge,let god judge

Now if only these people will come out

Tyler Perry
Queen Latipha
Missy Elliotte
Raz B
Eddie Murphy
Jonny Gill
Fonzworth
John legend
Will smith
Tom cruise
Tyson Beckford
Oprah

@ 31 WILL SMITH IS MARRIED WIT KIDS U DUMB ASS

gay people…uummm not gonna comment. wada…. hope katt gets better love him he is so funny

Stevie Wonder could see that Wanda Sykes was a damn l*sbian. Anytime a black woman is allowed to host TV shows or award galas she MUST either be a l*sbian or with a white man. I can’t think of one that wasn’t.

Katt Williams wasn’t speaking any “gibberish”, nor is he crazy. It’s the so-called black “celebrities” that can function easily and even thrive in that entertainment world of satanism, witchcraft, and hom*sexuality that are the nuts. That is the way of the world. He just ain’t built for that nonsense. He told a story about how he went to a Hollywood party and when he looked in each bedroom, there were disgusting things going on in each room. I knew he was not cracked up for that world when he said that, because the people that are cracked up for it wouldn’t have even mentioned it.

he just had some bad weed that’s all it aint nothing wrong with him. I just pray he doesn’t loose his kids from this

@32

Will Smith is the biggest hom*sexual in Holllywood, and his wife is the biggest l*sbian. All big name black male actors in Hollywood are Boule and have hit the casting couch to sleep with the director. Every last one. Everyone on no.31’s list is a hom*sexual or l*sbian.

I think the law of the land should obey God’s law and not try to satisfy humans wants. Who are we humans anyway. If you decide to live your life that way thats on you, but dont think all should go your way, no one for that matter. No one was born gay. Why would God talk against homosexuality but make someone born that way? There is no contradictions in the bible. Read the bible for what it is. Do not add to it or take away!!!! Following the world and not God can have almost everyone Lost (as evident).

I can’t understand paragraphs 2 & 3 from the Kat Williams story. Who wrote this stuff? Do you guys have an editor?

I always knew Katt was crazy and wanda was gay.You are what you are but the gay marriage thing is a bit much.

Drugs are bad and so is drinking too much. Katt needs 12 steps and pray and he will be alright.

the problem same-sex marriage is the word marriage has almost always be linked to faith. We think of it as a bond between God and a man and a woman.
Now Civil unions are still legal and I dont understand why they cant just live with that.
Wanda Sykes says if gay people chose to be gay then straight people chose to be straight and she is so right. there is no gay gene, matter of fact studies have shown that envoirment plays the largest part in the decison of a person to live a gay life style.
People voted no on this issuse because every major religin says being gay is wrong. Not because they hate gay people. I think being gay is wrong just like I think exposing you body for money, or having kids out of wedlock is wrong, but that dosent mean I hate the person. It means that I respect your right to do you but I will not give up my right to believe what i believe and teach my children in my beliefs. If you are a true believe in the Bible as I am you know that you cant in good faith say its okay for to men to lie together.

Its crazy how yall are discriminating about gays and lesbians being accepted when blacks weren’t always accepted. It still goes on to this day. You can say its not the same but in some aspects it is. Sure if you believe in GOD then he will be the judge. Let them have equal rights!!!!!

I MUST BE WEIRD BECAUSE I NEVER THOUGHT ABOUT WANDA SYKES BEING GAY. O WELL MORE POWER TO HER

I HOPE KATT GET’S BETTER SOON. HAVE YA’LL SEEN HIS NEW STAND UP “IT’S PIMPIN, PIMPIN”?? HILARIOUS. HE NEEDS TO PUT OUT A NEW ONE EVERY YEARS

Hollywood, it aint for everybody; it will drive you crazy.

# 32

your a dumb ass for thinking just because you’re married you can’t be gay. Theres a reason its called in the “CLOSET”

Your man is probably in the closet as we speak..

Simple ass mutherfu****

Some of the most talented people are the most troubled inside. Weird how that works….

Wanda…not surprised. Wonder if this will backlash against her hosting big name award shows. Still a funny lady….

@ Wanda: Big shocker.

@ JLINZ: Doesn’t someone telling you how to think kind of defeat the whole point of instituting a “voting age”?

@ # 31.. lmao

There are some crazy comments on this thread. I don’t believe the government should waste tax payer money altering the constitution to impugn personal liberties. But I think the whole idea of homosexuals gung-ho on adoption is retarded.

Katt, lmao. I dunno. He’s such a comedian … how do we know he’s not doing this for another skit/role in a movie or for an upcoming standup DVD?

of which, Its Pimpin Pimpin was funny as hell….

@KMNILES

Brotha, I know that you’re not exactly the sharpest knife in the drawer, but don’t you think that Hollywood already knew that she was a l*sbian and this is why she hosted so many shows in the first place….hint, hint. Whoopi Goldberg, Queen Latifah, Oprah Winfrey, Wanda Sykes….what do they all have in common? Damn.

hopefully she will pave the way for people like Queen Latifah LOL

#21, u got me crying laughing! That is one of the funniest things I’ve heard from Martin. #31, I’m dying laughing at your list! I’m not a bit suprised @ Wanda or Katt.

WANDA DYKES- u are a hypocrite! you used to be married to a man in 1998!!! What’s so wrong with civil unions? i believe that gays should be allowed to have benefits for their partners just as a heterosexual couples. but i don’t think it should be marriage. i think civil unions in every state are fine. AND PEOPLE ARE NOT BORN GAY!! ok, compare how many gay people there are in the world in 2008 compared to the 70’s and sh!t. people for whatever reason decide to become attracted to the same sex. humans are animals. i don’t see no gay dogs, cats, and monkeys humping around. come on now. if you gay, then do you. but don’t test God and don’t say you were born that way.

Im sick a tired of people comparing being gay to being black there is nothing in the bible saying that being black is wrong,discrininatian is wrong. But like #46 said (personal liberties) it is not a personal liberty to be black.

Ok ya’ll-I think the gay community has got this whole marriage thing twisted! Nobody said you can’t love who you want! As for being gay not being a choice, those desires might be there for whatever reason, but acting on them is what makes the gay lifestyle a CHOICE! I am appalled at Wanda Sykes comparing being gay to being black or female-there is NO COMPARISON because there is no CHOICE about the skin or sex you are born with! Furthermore, legalizing such things as gay marriage and adoption ultimately will allow homosexual practices to be taught to our children in schools across America as the “norm”, which ultimately contradicts what so many parents are teaching their children at home. While I think it is very important to teach children tolerance and love when it comes to all people, as someone who strongly believes that heterosexual marriage is the only way God intended marriage to be, I do not want my children to be taught by the outside world that “gay marriage” is an appropriate standard. I also want every future generation to understand that with choices come consequences, be they good or bad. Just because you choose to live this lifestyle doesn’t mean that the rest of the world has to conform to your choice! That’s like me being pissed off because every clothing store doesn’t carry my size, even though I choose to eat ice cream every weekend and not work out (and yes, I’m a big, beautiful girl, so I KNOW how frustrating this can be). Still, I’m not about to hold phat girl rallies and DEMAND that EVERY store in America carry size 28. I have a choice here: I can hit that elliptical machine and those veggies OR I can hit up Lane Bryant for my gear! The same goes for those living the gay lifestyle: You can love who you want to love and accept that you can’t marry and have all the benefits that come with that, or you can move to a state where it is legal for you to do your thing instead of getting mad at the rest of the world for not embracing your choice!

WOW! The careers of two comedians in double jeopardy!

-Wanda, because she came out of the closet, and

-Katt, because he showed up to the hotel in a bathrobe with a towel wrapper around his head and spaced out in the Attorney’s office.

In his comedy routine, Katt talks about the potent stuff that he uses.

The list of comedians with reprobate minds: Richard Pryor, Martin Lawrence, Dave Chapelle, Robin Harris, Eddie Murphy, Jamie Foxx, and now Katt Williams and Wanda Sykes.

#51

Exactly, i cant stand it when people spew that crap “i was born gay” wtf??? what kind of nosense is that… being gay is choice theres no ifs or buts about it.

What a shame 4 Wanda, but I already knew.

@ # 37
“I think the law of the land should obey God’s law and not try to satisfy humans wants. Who are we humans anyway.

well said.

Number 51

I have to disagree with you,, maybe people weren’t born gay but people have been gay for a very long time. And the world and society have always seen it as a BAD thing. that shit started since sodom and gomorrah… Maybe even before that who the hell knows. But I know that it’s been here for a long time,, but people are afraid to come out bcuz they think they won’t be accpeted and maybe deep down inside they know something is wrong with them…I don’t think people choose to be attracted to the same sex. Like i said in my previous comment.. It is something that happened during puberty that didn’t change.. you know how when you’re 5 you hate boys and boys hate girls they think everything is ewww, girls only wanted to play with girls and boys only wanted to play with boys. well during the puberty the x’s and the o’s didn’t cross or something and thats what happened.

whoa Soror Wanda is lesbian! dont matter, she still funny as hell, love her!

Skee-Wee Soror!

In regards to the comment “compare how many gay people there are in the world in 2008 compared to the 70’s and sh!t.” The 70s was a different era then 2008. In the 70s, ppl were finally getting comfortable with the whole free love, sex, etc. You cannot compare the 70s and 2008 b/c those are extremely two different different times and 2 different generations which makes your argument null and void. Coming from a philosophical standpoint, you can’t make an argument and justify your claims from a Religious standpoint b/c 1. Not everyone is religious 2. Ppl who are religious may have a different view from you 3. Religion is not a tangible answer. The only thing you can prove is the bible & ppl have many views on that also in which some ppl say that it contradicts itself. So that further makes your argument null and void. I’m sorry but I’m a psychology major with a minor in African-American Studies so I tend to see things from a different standpoint…I’m also apart of the Generation X era and we tend to see things differently also. I will come back later b/c I have class right now.

@ 31…LMFAOOOOO…You forgot to put Alicia Keys on the list.

There was a vote years ago and the people voted “NO” on gay marriage. Some liberal activists judges though (erroneosly) thought it their place to overturn the people’s will and gave gays the right to “marry”. This Prop 8 thing was the people speaking YET again with a resounding NO on gay marriage. I hope this is one issue the gay mafia is not able to bully the American People in. Polls show over and over people don’t agree with it, why the past few years this issue has come to the fore is beyond me. They are not allowed extra rights that is all this is. This is NOT a civil rights issue, no matter what they say…. and they continually comparing the plight with Blacks not being able to sit at the same counter as White people is absolutely insulting. If the Democrats are smart, they’ll stick to the current Obama/party line:

yes on civil unions, no on gay marriage

Get some rest Katt. You burnin at both ends. Take a break and come back and do the damn thing.

You can’t trust people who hide in closets! They hide cause they know something is wrong and then they blame the world when no they come out and no one supports their efforts to come clean after all the years of sneaking around. It’s a no win situation! Even Ellen will look silly when she’s told her marraige ceremony to Portia de Rossi is null and void.

I think Obama is right…! Its possible to have a “civil union”, but lets not confuss the children with cross-dressing and negative images. A poor boy goes to school and tells his friend that he has two dads! Or, a innocent child has to tell her classmates that her dad is a woman.

How can anyone take Wanda serious?

katt williams…. That is not pimpin pimpin. lol…. hope everyhitng works out. wanda… woo hoo. i’m glad u came out. everyone should be free to love who they choose.

My mom and I actually saw Katt the morning that this had taken place and he was fine. He greeted us like he would greet a fan. All he wanted was directions. Stop giving him such a hard time.

Wow, you people disgust me with your hate and support for lack of human rights. How many men and women get drunkenly married and get divorced two days later? How many men and women are forced to marry each other because they had a baby? You’re telling me that is acceptable but two people who love each other that live different lifestyles from your own are unacceptable?

LOVE IS LOVE, why, at the very least, would you all vote to disable and deny that from other people? thus, DISCRIMINATION IS DISCRIMINATION. When people say “oh black people were discriminated against worse than gays, or being gay is a choice…blah blah, you only display your true ignorance and intolerance.” who are you to judge what “true” love is?

IF YOU BELIEVE IN GOD, let HIM be the Judge. don’t contradict yourselves…
and this is coming from a straight, black woman.

*watch Keith Olbermann’s special comment on prop 8.

@37 I agree 100% people get so caught up in think that God is a changing God like he changes with the time…He isn’t he is unchanging and what was God’s law then is still God’s law NOW just cause it is something in the law that you don’t like doesn’t mean that you can choose to follow only certain parts and that not only goes for homosexuals and lesbians it also applies to anyone who does what every feels good or gives them pleasure outside of God’s Law (Getting high,Drunk, and having pre-martial sex)….anyways….

Katt Get better soon!! Praying for ya!

@67

Thank you! I’m pro-myob (mind your own business)

P.S. Remember, you are not God and you can’t say what a person should & should not do & having your opinion on that matter before you get to know the person is judging. Wow, ppl irk me so much especially my own ppl. We are our own worse enemy. Hopefully, I will write my book after I finish my BS & get my doctorate b/c my ppl need guidance.

@66

If the Most High were the judge, they’d be burned alive or stoned to death. You’re better off letting the white man be the judge, lol. People are funny with this “oppressive” nonsense here in America concerning the hom*sexuals and l*sbians. They have never had it better in any society than here in present day America, and they have the nerve to compare their “plight” to black peoples’, lol. All your top entertainers,executives, and government officials are hom*sexual and they have achieved those heights BECAUSE of their orientation, not despite of it. That “Prop 8″ is an indirect attempt to call attention to the issue of gay marriage, not to stop it. After the government acts as if the unity and protestations of the gays overcame the edict, more states will legalize it. It’s a smokescreen. If it passed too easily, America would not be able to fake a moral stance to the other countries of the world like it likes to do.

ok….as for wanda–yeah kind of figured…my thing is this, everyone always says that people should be free to love whomever they want but how far does that go…a marriage is considered to be between a man and a woman….PROCREATION is the reason for a marriage being between a MAN and a WOMAN, we would not be able to populate the world if everyone were gay let’s just be real…so whatever i don’t care but don’t say a damn word when people start saying that beastiality should be legal because they want to be free to love a goat or a dog….support it because once again it shouldn’t matter who we love right??? Y should there be limits??? It is america right?

as for Katt…I’m truly sorry to hear about this. the right thing to say is that he needs family and friends around him during this time but why would he say he can’t trust anyone anymore…maybe someone close to him jacked him over and he doesn’t want family and friends around him right now…i’m gonna pray for him and hope that he can pull himself out of this rut because (and i hate to look at it this way but with all the mess now a days yall know it’s true) if he’s found not sane enough to function w/out a poa and the wrong person is appointed he may be crazy and broke for real.

OK-enough of this! Humans LOVE darkness rather than light. If it feels good to the flesh-they will do it-whatever IT is. Have fun-fulfill every erotic desire here on earth humans! You all speak about The Most High as if He is ignorant. He will not punish anyone for something they have no knowlege of beforehand. Humans have free will and are exposed to divine knowledge at some time in their lives. Reject or accept, it is your choice! Each individual will see for themselves the consequences! So don’t argue the point! Whatever is sown will be reaped. That is a spiritual and natural law!

Katt, I hope he gets his life together. It sounds like he just surrounded with the wrong ass people! Comedians are usually a little off lol, but not crazy.

I love Wanda,she is too funny to me. She had me with the detachable p***y! I applaud her for coming out.

And I also believe that 200 years from now history will look at the BLACK community that elected Barack SIDEWAYS. How did they champion a new era in civil rights yet neglected others civil rights? I hope we wont be looked at as an oxymoron.

I cosign #66, Love is love, and I think that is one of the worst things you can do to a person is deny them love. And this IS an issue of Civil rights, as long as one group of people is looked at as second rate. I understand people saying “gay marriage, whats next?” but I personally think its our responsibility to make sound judgment on this. The fact is that if the LETTERS of the law are changed that it will open the door for other changes, constitutionally. Thats the ONLY reason why gay marriage hasnt prospered yet in the U.S. If it wasnt defined back then, whether most of us believed in God or not we would not have any choice but to recognize the union of a gay couple. I believe Jesus saves me, but church and state MUST be seperated, PERIOD. Thats what the United States was founded upon, and we seem to have forgot!

Judah, I’m always amazed by how many “facts” you’re able to collect before you take a position on an issue.

Now you seem to know that “every last one” of the successful, well-adjusted blacks working in Hollywood are homosexual (Oh shit, i forgot that spelling the entire word summons a demon that will surely destroy the good & just people of the world. Watch out Judah and disciples!!). What I can’t understand is which data collection process you use.

Participant observation, perhaps?

There’s nothing wrong w/katt…he was probably just high as a kyte that’s all lol. And I kinda felt sad for him at the part I read where he said “he can’t trust nobody anymore”. That wasn’t his crazyiness talkin..that was him coming to a realization about his fame & relationships w/friends and family. So sad.

And to answer someones’ question…I know he is in a relationship w/someone that he lives with but not sure if they made it official by getting married. He has like 8 kids he adopted and 1 son he conceived. I don’t think he’s crazy but if he is,I hope he gets better.

@73

Do you have an opinion, or is the one or two thoughts you have predicated off of mine.

@ Judah eveything you said was ridiculous and thus further proving my point of the lack of tolerance and compassion people have for their fellow human. Who’s doing the burning and stoning? God? No, figuratively we are. We don’t live in a medieval society were people can burn and stone others in the name of God….thank God. But we are still “throwing stones” at people because they are different from us. How does God feel about that? You better be absolutely FREE of sin before you make that assessment.
Um prop 8 does more than “call attention the issue of gay marriage” it indeed ELIMINATES HOMOSEXUALS the RIGHT to marry…did you read the ballot?

And about ALL top entertainers and whatnot getting their status because of their sexual orientation…smh…that’s when i knew you were ridiculous. Where are you getting your info from? LOL

@montgomerypoet
“we would not be able to populate the world if everyone were gay let’s just be real”

…really? because being gay is contagious and EVERYONE will become gay if it is legal….let’s be real. That was stupid.

And as far as “oh then we’re gonna start allowing beastiality to happen…” Seriously people, do you think the animals can sign a consent form to be married? All homosexuals want is to be married. We are denying people that when there are far more crucial things to be concerned about.

War? Economy? Violence?
Noooo what’s important is that we stop people from getting married….smh

Romans 1:24-27

1:24 Therefore God gave them over in the desires of their hearts to impurity, to dishonor their bodies among themselves.

1:25 They exchanged the truth of God for a lie and worshiped and served the creation rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever! Amen.

1:26 For this reason God gave them over to dishonorable passions. For their women exchanged the natural sexual relations for unnatural ones,

1:27 and likewise the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed in their passions for one another. Men committed shameless acts with men and received in themselves the due penalty for their error.

i’m done with it….take from it what you will - i’m out

“do unto others as you would have them do unto you”

“he who is without sin, cast the first stone”

“love thy neighbor”

only god can judge me-tupac…lol

take from it what you will. but i believe in love and HUMAN rights.
i’m out.

i love wanda sykes. and i’m glad she came out.
i don’t even wanna comment on the gay marriage rights issue. it just pisses me off everytime.

anyways, wow katt. i hope everything is alright. hollywood can be a stewing pot for mental anguish…especially if your creativity becomes stifled (look @ dave chappelle).

Im kinda on the fence about the the whole gay marriage thing.
I think that whether people choose to be gay or not, let them be. They are not hurting anyone by choosing to have relations with the same sex or anything. In that sense i feel, hey, why not let them get married too. But then people say that that destoys the “sanctity” of marriage. But alot of things have had their sanctity destroyed. Shoot, people have destroyed the sanctity of church and for alot of churches its all about making money, i mean, have you seen the houses that all these “preachers” live in? and the kind of cars they drive? Even heterosexual marriage doesn’t have its sanctity anymore. Divorce rates are off the roof, and people act like it aint no thing. Its not a big deal to anyone anymore, you can get married today and get divorced next week.
Anyhoo, at the same time, why do homosexuals care so much about marriage? Isn’t a civil union enough? I mean, you love the person and your gonna live with them no matter what, so why do you need marriage to make anything “official”, just move in together and live your lives, marriage is just an outward symbol, and really doesn’t even mean as much as people think. Point is, gay people won’t die if they don’t get married, they can still love each other as much as they want, regardless of whether or not they have metal bands on their fingers.

@ #66 DISGUSTED:

How are homosexuals are being denied the ability to love one another?

How is marriage a human right, and on that basis, what does marriage accomplish that a civil union doesn’t?

@ #66 DISGUSTED:

How are homosexuals being denied the ability to love one another?

Was this public confession from Wanda NEW information? I mean c’mon! We all knew it just like we do bout Latifah! If they choose to keep it private, let that be what that is!

I’m concerned about Katt though. That’s my boy! My prayers go out to him because he’s at the prime of his career and it appears to be shattering before his eyes. AND, he has kids to worry about in the process!

@ #65 - directions??

Following an arduous 300 shows and an 18-month touring schedule that left him incredibly fatigued, Katt felt compelled to be with his family in an effort to deal with his stress. While doing so, he is under a doctor’s care.

As this is a private and personal matter, we hope the media will respect his family’s request for privacy.

I’m on a Katt Williams Support Campaign. All we need is an influx of letters of support to his management staff. I’ve contacted local and all facets of entertainment to chip in. Jay Leno, Conan, The View ladies, KTLA, Big Boy, MoJo, Ben’s Chili Bowl in D.C. (Katt visit’s them when he was there - check the latest DVD), and countless radio personnel.

HELP!!

Thank you!!

PREACH #51….PREACH

@zulu

with a civil union
-couples aren’t recognized as being married in another state, whereas married couples are throughout the country.
-american citizens cannot marry their non-american partners, and said partner cannot be a legal citizen, whereas with actual marriage, that is allowed.
-civil union couples do not received tax breaks, joint-tax returns, etc. that the gov’t fiscally supports in heterosexual couples. they do not receive family discounts or insurance breaks, whereas heterosexual couples do.
-if a partner is sick, the other partner is not allowed to make medical decisions or collect social security should their partner die, whereas heterosexual couples have that right.
-marriage is universal, civil unions are not.

and as far as human rights. i stand by that. if any HUMAN BEING wants to marry their loved one…why can’t they? they are being denied.

they are being denied to confirm their love through legal marriage. thus people are denying their desired act of love.

Why are black people so homophobic? Let’s ask this question: Who willingly would “decide” to be gay if they know the reprecussions? African Americans are always talking about equality, equality, equality…it needs to be equality for all people. Then all of sudden everyone’s a Christian when this topic comes up. Ridiculous!

MontgomeryPoet, I don’t trust something that has been translated, rewritten throughout time by man so you can save your verses. I also want to say that I’m sure there are many Biblical quotes could identify your “sins”…if you wanted to take it there.

Y’all need to calm down with those comments about being gay is a choice, and living a gay lifestyle is a choice. It’s NOT a choice, and a gay person living a “gay” lifestyle is just them giving themselves a chance to not conform to society, and to live how they wanna live. Straight people have that privilege to live their life without being discriminated against, so why can’t they?

I luv how every1 is concerned about Katt’s health, but when he’s talking about drugs and things that aren’t healthy, every1 just laughs. smh~
Good 4 Wanda. Shame on ppl who believe in taking rights from others. It wasn’t too long ago that we were just second class citizens and didn’t have that many rights ourselves. I recall hearing some1 say “God hates the sin, not the sinner.” and if that’s the case, hate homosexuality all you want, but don’t deny the rights of the sinner. Peace:)

Wanda Sikes - big surprise to me - never would have guessed. I find it really strange that so many people on CL knew that Wanda was gay all along - makes you wonder about that saying ” takes one to know one.”

Wow, pretty brave of Wanda; I always thought she might be a lesbian. Wonder if she’ll inspire other African-American celebs to come out.

I bet he won’t let nobody else wait in his office, until he get back, no more. Talking about his demeanor was a little troubed. Katt was about to nut up on him. Sorry, but too funny I wonder was he still wearing the robe and turban. And he still let him wait in his office?! Baby bye. Too funny

Oh and I feel bad for Kat. The minority communities were taught that only “Jesus” can help them. Well guess what… that’s a great security blanket but only YOU can take responsibility to get help and get better. God can give you that support BUT he can’t make you go to the PSYCHOLOGIST for the help needed.

I hope Kat sees this, thinks it over and decides to get help because it sound bi-polar or schizophrenic.

@25
How do YOU know what marriage was made for? Just curious…

I’m so sick and tired of people using the “the Bible says it’s wrong” and “it’s against my religion” excuses because quite frankly there are a lot of things the Bible says are wrong and I’m sure you enjoy them a lot. Do you eat shrimp, mussels and scallops??? Well, in the Bible the third dietary law sates you can’t eat shelled fish. Ta-Dah! Should we stone you to death? I’m pretty sure it also says you should not wear clothes made out of different fabrics at the same time? Is that against your religion also? I guess god will punish you on your Judgement day. Don’t just pick out certain things you want to use to justify your intolerance and refer to the Bible as the law you live by. ***** hypocrites. One of the main lessons Jesus taught is also not to judge people, unless you’re oh-so-perfect. So please don’t insult people’s intelligence with dumb statements like that.

I only have 4 words for ya!
Stay off the drugs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Honestly I think that Obama will propose that the idea of civil unions be updated to where gay couples can have the same basic human rights such as tax breaks and shared accounts, hospital visits and major choices, etc. I could’ve sworn I heard him say this. He said he believed that marriage is a sacred union between man and woman, but civil unions should allow more as basic human rights. So if he were to update this and give the same rights as human, will there next be a fight over the fact that the same word of “marriage” is not being shared?

Also you can’t knock people that live by their religions. That’s what religion was intended for. You live by your word. Do all people do it. No, each will be judged accordingly. There’s so many different religions that oppose homosexuality and many of them are in this country so you can’t just blame it on one religion and one culture. There are many people who voted for prop 8 that voted yes because they live their lives according to their word, not that you are inhuman. On the other hand there are people voting yes for other reasons.

You are not suppose to judge.

And to those who wanna say “don’t point out my sin when you commit sin too” you are so right, but don’t use someone else’s sin to justify yours. At the end of the day you go to your judgement day alone and review YOUR life not anyone else’s

Poor Katt. Get better homie!!

WOW!! I am so shocked after reading all of these comments! I can’t believe people are saying that homosexuality is a choice!! If it is a choice why would people want to put themselves in the minority and suffer the criticism and backlash? I think homosexuals should be allowed to marry. put yourself in their shoes, if straight people couldn’t marry we would be protesting our asses off! And i know some people are going to comment that the bible says it’s wrong and etc but seriously open your minds!! If everyone still had the mindset that people had 100’s of years ago, humanity would not have advanced. Women would have less rights, black people would have less rights, divorce would be illegal, etc!! GET WITH THE TIMES!!

@ #86 DISGUSTED: Thanks for the info.Your first point doesn’t add up (a marriage would have to hold), unless civil unions aren’t federally observed. If your second and third points hold true, then gays are definitely discriminated against, and it is not right. But my impression is that civil unions account for your third and fourth points. I disagree with you on the notion of human right. If marriage was an (unconstrained) human right, people like R Kelly would have a field day. I see the marriage issue as night and day.You want to enter an institution, but you don’t meet the definition of that institution. It’s as silly as gays that attend church adamantly to worship with a book that condemns them. Do they believe they are incorrigible sinners (which would make sense) or that their god is a liar (which wouldn’t)?

Comparing the plight of homosexuals to what blacks have, and continue to suffer is laughable at best. A white homosexual can easily be the governor of New Jersey, or host a popular TV show. Blacks are discriminated against by institution and legacy. My point is that if you are black, you face the wrath of discrimination the moment you draw your first breadth. Before you even know the meaning of “choice.” Your unborn children will have a burden to cash soon as they get here by virtue of having a black lineage — regardless of their orientation.

Onto Wanda. How can she claim to be a choiceless lesbian with any credulity if she was married to a man? Pure ridiculous. Either it was a choice, or she is not a lesbian.

IMHO, homosexuality is a sexual aberration. Just like nymphomania, pedophilia, necrophilia, bestiality, etc. However, it is perfectly legal when enacted by two consenting adult citizens. What I don’t get is why a gay person who intrinsically self-selects out of the procreation process (if indeed it’s not by choice) would want to adopt a kid when a strong provision for adoption is that the children be raised in a stable environment; at least one that approximates social normalcy.

Finally, people (including the bible thumpers) need to quit foaming at the mouth. No one can make a rational argument with a skewed ideology. One would have to subscribe to your belief system for your opinion to be remotely valid. Also, this isn’t purely a question of homophobia. If one reads the nuanced bill, they would realize that one can be homophobic and vote against Prop 8, and vice-versa.

If you think some people are not born gay, you people are sadly misinformed. As a nurse, I have seen many patients who were born with both organs and have the doctor choose the sex for them at birth. Just because a person has female organs does not mean that person is a female on the gentic level. For goodness sakes, people are born with genetic birth defects every second. Does anyone honestly believe that genetic abnormalities causing complex chemical imbalances like schizophrenia, sociopathic disorders and confusion about sex identity does not occur. Logical conclusion, many mistakes happen at bith, why would this not be one of the many. Lets not conclude that people are not born that way, because some are. Does that change the argument.

Cool blog. A related issue is Obama’s membership in Generation Jones (between the Boomers and Generation X). I’ve seen numerous very credible experts emphatically insist that Obama is part of GenJones; if Obama’s generational identity is of interest to you, click this link…it goes to a page filled with lots of articles and videos of famous people discussing Obama’s identity as a GenJoneser, and the many implications of this for his Presidency: http://www.generationjones.com/2008election.html

LOL @ # 31, you forgot Da Brat!

My nigga Katt was probably high as hell. he dont need no shrinks help…go smoke some mo weed hommie… im from SC dem boyz would make up anything on a brother…

Soo…did Wanda think people didn’t know?

The people of California have spoken twice…and we voted yes on Prop 8 by a landslide. How many times do we have to vote on this issue?

Oh..and I’m openly Bi-Sexual and I voted Yes on Prop 8.

KATT WE NEED YOU, SO PLEASE RELAX YOUR MIND AND TAKE ALL THE TIME YOU NEED TO GET WELL. YOUR COMEDY BRINGS A SENSE OF RELIEF TO ALL OF US OUT HERE CAUGHT UP IN THIS DAY-TO-DAY GRIND.

I LOVE YOUR WONDERFUL SPIRIT KATT, SO DON’T WORRY ANYMORE ABOUT ANYONE OR ANYTHING, JUST CHILL FOR A WHILE, YOU DESERVE IT!!

WE LOVE YOU KATT AND LOOK FORWARD TO YOU COMING BACK.

You know, marriage everywhere has a religious basis. Most, if not all, requires that it is for one man and one woman and do not condone homosexuality. You would think gays would not want to be associated with anything with a religious basis. Don’t bring up that crap about blacks because the Bible does not say that blacks are sin and all slaves were not black! But it does say homosexuality and the infeminate are sin and that man that lie with man and woman with woman is an abomination against his word and how we were created. Gays are are trying to force their lifestyles on people to accept it as natural. There is nothing natural about having sex with intestines and rectums!!! There I said it and there it is!Need to stop sugar coating it and call it what it is. Gays want special treatment for their sin. Why is it okay for gays to get health benefits for their “partners” and straight people can’t insure their boyfriends/girlfriends. Gays want to be rewarded for their choices to have immoral sex. Don’t care what you say, how you try to tweak it, and rationalize it, it is a choice. It is a choice to act on that lust. Just like it is a choice to lie, steal, molest, gossip, commit adultery, murder, and any other sin. You can deny the Bible all you want but open your eyes and you will see prophecies that were told in the Bible that has and is coming true!! We will all answer to a God that told you it was wrong, and the Supreme court, you mommy and daddy, your protestors, your “partner” will not be able to help you because they will have to answer for themselves. We all have to turn away from our sins and believe on what God did on the cross and believe his word and we will be saved. I really believe the problem lies with condoning other sins like adultery and fornication as normal, like in Hollywood, teenage pregnancy and abortion as okay. When you start tearing away at morals in any form, you open the floodgates for all of it to move to center stage and there are consequences to all of it. We are tearing away at the legal age limit for consensual sex with the advent of teacher/child relationships that recieve a slap on the risk, and not to mention R Kelly and his bull. We have accepted child sexualization in clothing and shoes and other areas that were once sacred ground. Trust that the polygamist are coming next, there are already talks of a reality show and rumors of Akon being a polygamist. Beastiality will be next and every other person who will ride on the coat tails of gays to force society to accept their immoral choices.

Why do gay people want other people to be gay? #31….please stop with your rant. Funny…but please..Will? Oprah…lol..I guess you’ll have to include Obama…now all the straights are gay and all the gays are straight. God help us.

katt william i hope u get better

I Don’t Find Katt Williams Particularly Funny Anyway….
But I Could Of Sworn Wanda Sykes Came Out On Ellen….

@31 oooo you wrong for that

What I dont understand is why all (well most of your) give a shyt who Wanda is screwing or Latifa, or Alicia or Will, or any of the people mentioned in the threads. It’s nunya damn bizness. Mind your own house. If gays want to marry, fuck it let them be miserable with the rest of the married couples of the country, its a tax credit yaw, let’s not get it twisted. Married couples have a higher standard deduction than single, and even HEAD OF HOUSEHOLD. If they want to adopt, hell, let them adopt. You would rather kids stay in foster care or in otherwise unhealthy environments when there are healthy, economically, psychologically stable adults who happen to be gay who can offer a good home and love ready and willing to do so for these children.

Katt, smoke cheaper weed, that Kush, that purp, it may get you ass lifted, but it can also send you to the crazy house. Get better man and get back to being LUXURIOUS!!!!

STOP WITH ALL THE “MARRIAGE IS RELIGION”" MARRIAGE IS A MERGER, A MERGER OF DEBTS, ASSETS, AND CHILDREN.

I asked God to renew Katt Williams wonderful mind and keep him in his care. The Lord is not finished with him. Do you know how I know? Because God has a great sense of humor and he enjoys the way katt makes people laugh about the things we think about but never get the opportunity to share with anyone else. Agree with me, because if two or more agree, God is there.
Remember, a merry heart doeth good like a medicine!
