Rockin' Gay Moments: No. 5

'Stan' by Your Man

Eminem made amends with critics who accused the potty-mouthed rapper of homophobia when he performed his hit 'Stan' with Elton John at the Grammy Awards, closing with a big, sloppy man-hug. Whatever the PR benefits, Em didn't exactly earn himself any genius awards when he claimed not to know that Elton is gay.

What an ignorant comment to make! I don't know if you are a parent or not, but I would be ashamed to have YOU raising me.

Oh Heaven Forbid, or should I say America? Freddy Mercury was gay so what? Focus on the louses in Washington taking your rights as Americans away on a daily basis. You worry about GAYS? SHAME ON YOU! I worry about the murderers getting out of prison, the child molesters, rapists getting out daily.Americans starving living on the streets,dying from below zero temps. Child Abuse and well you know all the stuff america needs to open their eyes to and their pockets you know like oprah or bill gate? Selfish rich People. Freddy Mercury was Awesome I have more respect for the man who is honest than the ones who fear honesty.

Janis said,

"Good thing too because who would want to live with the shame of having queer parents?"

You either gotta be kidding, or your just that stupid. Would you rather children be mishandled in orphanages or to give them an opportunity to live a real life with parents who love and support them, gay or straight. Your ignorance intrigues me..

I think that when someone is overtly homophobic like eminem is, they must have issues with their own sexuality.Either that or they were molested as a younster as there is just no reason to rant and rave about someone's sexual leanings.

9. A lot of young people manage quite well and you do them NO good at all with your ignorant remarks.
