Says JoeMyGod:

The Artist Formerly Known As Brilliant now says that gays got what they deserved at Sodom and Gomorrah.

Which is exactly what Prince told The New Yorker.

When asked about his perspective on social issues—gay marriage, abortion—Prince tapped his Bible and said, “God came to earth and saw people sticking it wherever and doing it with whatever, and he just cleared it all out. He was, like, ‘Enough.’”

  1. Ok everyone hold up! Even Bob Dylan went born again for a little bit, though probably not a homophobe. Please everyone pray that it’s just a phase. Pray and pray hard. Pray like you were Prince giving Jesus a lap dance.

  2. There’s a limit to how much you can complain about being misquoted when you refuse to let reporters use tape recorders (as he has for years). Srsly.

    I’m a big fan — hence the Prince-related handle — but the man lost his damned mind, as well as his ability to write a decent song, around the time he became a Jehovah’s Witness.

    I have no trouble believing that he is a bigot. Doubt he used the exact words in the article, because they just don’t sound like him, but don’t doubt that the reporter got the jist of it. The man is genderqueer and has never really known how to cope with that. Add that to the religion bit, and. . . gross.

  4. JW are tools. misogynistic tools, to be specific. not that he wasn’t always the latter, but that would prime him for conversion to the former, i guess.

    ah well. got a couple good songs out of him, anyway. (misquoted, maybe. misunderstood? not as likely.)

  5. And then on the opposite end of the spectrum you’ve got blue, you’ve got the Democrats, and they’re, like, ‘You can do whatever you want.’ Gay marriage, whatever. But neither of them is right.”

    Oh yeah. TOTALLY misquoted. Well, that clears THAT up, doesn’t it?
