Kathie Lee Gifford Complains About LGBTQ — But Not For The Reason You Think
HuffPost
"They've really got to stop with that," the retired morning TV personality said.
Kathie Lee Gifford’s bid to paint herself as a compassionate Christian encountered a bit of a snag as she lobbed a petty complaint against the LGBTQ community in a new interview with right-wing personality Tomi Lahren.
During the sit down, Fox Nation pundit Lahren asked the retired morning TV personality how she squares her acceptance of the LGBTQ community with her faith, a topic which came up in regards to actor Shia LaBeouf recently proclaiming he didn’t have “problems” with gay people personally, but that the bible says otherwise.
(LaBeouf was arrested last month in New Orleans after allegedly assaulting two men while shouting homophobic slurs during Mardi Gras celebrations. Defending his actions in an interview after the incident, he said that “big gay people are scary to me.”)
While Gifford acknowledged that scripture certainly has “something to say” about homosexuality, she told Lahren she tries to live by another maxim: “That one is a four-letter word, and it’s called L-O-V-E, love.”
“I’ve had as many or more gay friends than straight friends or whatever,” she went on, before interrupting her own thought with a gripe about the LGBTQ acronym itself.
