Wanda Sykes Comes Out!
Sometimes what happens in Vegas goes global. And the LGBT media world got sassier when fab comedian and actress Wanda Sykes came out at Las Vegas' Join the Impact/Anti Prop 8 rally this past Saturday. AfterEllen.com has the full scoop.
But it turns out that Sykes also got hitched to her wife in California back on October 25. Nice!
Sykes talking to the crowd rallying in Vegas on Saturday. Welcome, Wanda!
Sykes was just one of many celebs who spoke at Join the Impact rallies nationwide, uniting thousands of LGBT Americans and their friends and families all gearing up for the boiling battle over gay marriage.
After the jump, watch the video of the proud and kick-ass Sykes talking about how the current same-sex marriage issue turned her personal issue into a public fight. She's calling on us all to unite and "go get our damn equal rights!"
And a funny side note: Who are lesbians saying they wanna see come out next? Read the comments on AfterEllen. All hail the Queen!!!
Go Wanda! We're glad you're out!
Go Wanda! I commend that you are not afraid to crack fun at or be serious about the truth.
With you as an American, free speech will leave on!
With admiration,
Straight not Narrow
