let's talk about ault folk singer michelle shocked who went on allegedly
homophobe all now she allegedly what on what definitely would be a homophobic
grant if it is true was allegedly demean but didn't you do it
well that is the key is says that she didn't that that really is a delicate
transcript
uh... well
there's a transcript but i don't know i haven't heard any audio or video dutch
so if that's what we have high just wanna be sure that we're you know what
not
making claims that we don't have all your video evidence for
michelle shocked isn't all folk singer
who you may or may not have heard of i've not heard of she had some success
in the eighties and nineties
and she was at yoshi's in san francisco a few days ago
and she went on what is being described as a homophobic grant where she
announced that in god hates fags that's a alleged a quote unquote as being
attributed to her and matt penfield was live tweeting this show from on stage
and he said that it was a totally sincere and super anti-gay and hateful
ranch meaning
it was not a parity which i think would be question number one right lewis is a
parody of some kind that would be an important question it sounds like a
first grants that it might have been so uh...
this is also surprising till to some people because they assumed incorrectly
that michelle shocked was a lesbian this is all i'm not familiar with her so i
research michelle shocked
and read that their there was a contingent that assumed she was a
lesbian that apparently is not the case
now she said at edge on the net back in two thousand a
i am a believer ayam a devout practicing christian
i don't like the ring of that because i know so many people who profess the
faith and i look at their social conscious and i can see how they
reconcile their faith with their politics and she said you know what
homosexuality is no more or less asin then fornication
so basically saying yes homosexuality is a send but there's plenty of other sins
that are just as bad no no better no worse up she now says that she of did
not say god hates fags and i was reading that at some point in eighty eight was
earlier she was going to be on uh...
i'm sorry i forget the name she was going to be on the call samplers program
addressing this i did not hear that interview if it already took place
what did happen is that all eleven of her tour dates in the u_s_
were cancelled within forty eight hours of this alleged rant
and uh... that basically the the tour is gone as a result of this
not surprising their i mean if this was sincere
that's what happens people and if if people her her are are repulsed by you
you and your statements
they're gonna cancer you know i have i've found audio of the things they
really have audio yeah i dot i decided get it to you right now free to hear
let's see how can i find it but what do you find
uh... if you take the michelle shocked and of course
and
the will the first thing that comes up on n_b_c_ news at the bottom of the
article
there's an audio sample from n_b_c_ news okay i've got that this is this is good
as we have the idea of sample that would be
absolutely fantastic
it was all big
sapphire
so that that would be the next allegation that he was just a big joe
appreciate that
she's saying is that that is saying that it wasn't what what she says their
statement is that it wasn't meant to be taken literally as what she thinks she
was just saying what other people would say let's take a listen
so restore social
the with
the conclude arianna awareness filled with him

the i_r_s_ overview of the fire

here
provocation
so any case there is already own presumably it is in there has been
reported that it's somewhere in those twenty three minutes
so get the question is is it a parity or not you know that came up when uh...
michael richards actor from kramer did his uh... and we're grant basically
thing you know
uh... it was it was really he didn't say but it was kind of interpreted as he was
just doing something
instantly to get people riled up and he doesn't personally dislikes black people
call them the n_ word in his private life
uh... but i think uh... these days that even really an excuse guys to say it was
just a parity
well it seems like a vitamin somewhere social experiment corona
popular michael richardson or the or the michell just add that if that excuse to
say it was kind of a parity that nobody understood and three days later i'm
calling it that i have something to cop out
i mean i i thought from the beginning with the michael richards thing that the
whole thing it was something that he was doing to get back at the heckler had
it in no way in my opinion did it have anything to do with my michael richards
actually believes and my interpretation was the one that was parodied not my
interpretation but the official story was parotid from my perspective on curb
your enthusiasm if he's not a bright
