Do we even knoe that he's actually going to get this money? I don't know if the whole case has even been filed or anything, but I think he really is
just saying this stuff the get more attention. Why would he actually get money from the whole thing if he's the one who started it?
I never understood why he's famous for talking about people with actual talent. He just needs to go away. He can take Heidi and Spenser with him too. |

That guy is better than me because i would personally tweeter Perez Hilton and tell him to take the check, the pen he wrote the check with and and the keys he used to drive his car to deliver the check and shove it in his fat ass. |

 Ari. I wish I had something to do with this.
I think what Judy is doing is smart, they have a clear goal of what the foundation is for. And Perez did something 100% against what their foundation stands for. So I can understand them not wanting to be linked with him. Plus it's not like them saying fuck off to him, is going to hurt to them anyways. |

Thank fuck! Perez needs to realize he is a nasty, rude, hypocritical man and the gay and lesbian community don't want anything to do with him!

It's blood money. Some people who have morals don't accept blood money. It would be like taking money earned from a crime. It's called integrity.

In doing this what they're in effect saying is that they care more about opposing the use of such language than about money and that they don't think
the harm it does can be forgiven by donating a few bucks to charity. Good for them.

And  to the foundation. While I understand all the people saying that MSF should take the money and use it to further their cause, ITA with everyone
reiterating what the statement itself says. Takine money derived from a situation that your organization has been fighting to prevent for years would be
nonsensical. Just because Perez is gay doesn't mean that it's okay for him to use a discriminatory slur and get away with it, and then be like
"OH HAI! I apologize -- here's some money that proves it! All is well and good!"... especially in this instance. Perez said himself that he used
the slur because he knew that it would "get" to Will.I.Am. How is that not different from all of the bullies who tease kids in school by using the
same hateful dialogue? He refuses to apolotize to GLAAD, but apologizes to the community as a whole, and then pulls this shit out of his ass? I wouldn't
take the money either. It's not sincere. I hope this slap to the face hurts more than the first one.

The hits on his website are up out of curiosity, but he has made a major fool of himself with respectable gay rights organiations, and most people who hear
about this stupidity he is playing out for attention.
He was beginning to sadly be a mainstream "celebrity" for his nasty assed blog, but now he is looking like the jerk he is. Finally he showed the world he is a loser, hypocrite and nothing but an attention seeking asshole. I doubt his obnoxious fat ass will be judging beauty contests or presenting at real award shows in the future. He takes away from the events to make publicity since he is a sorry sack of shit, who is only famous for beating on people who really work for a living. I hope he loses his radio spots too. Whenever I hear that annoying voice I turn the channel. HIs little cry baby Chris Crocker video was so funny, how will he ever look legit judging anyone else. He is an evil piece of shit. |
