Britney Spears, a known gay icon is now being said to be a secret homophobe. In a recent Twitter Q&A Britney was asked her favorite author and she replied “Anything by Max Lucado.” Mr. Lucado for those who don’t know is strongly against the gay lifestyle which is odd considering how Britney says she loves gays so much. “A lot of my hair stylists and my beauty team that I work with are gay,” Britney Spears recently said in a San Francisco interview, “so I hang out with gays a lot and I just think they’re adorable and hilarious.” LGBT bloggers called the statements “tacky,” “condescending,” and “infantilizing.”
Her favorite author Max Lucado in 2004 wrote an article entitled What God Says About Gay Marriage.
“The Bible never minces words regarding God’s feelings towards homosexual activity,” Lucado writes. “To the men of Israel, God warned, ‘You shall not lie with a male as with a woman. It is an abomination.’”
“From the start to finish,” he continues, “Scripture categorically condemns same-sex intimacy … [God] categorically opposes it.”
Last year he said regarding gay marriage that Americans are facing an “ongoing inability to agree with God’s definition of marriage.” This summer Spears was spotted reading Lucado’s essays Grace for the Moment.
Britney described her new record Work B*tch as a tribute to gay fans.
Mykki Blanco, a gender-bending gay rapper trashed Spears as “tacky” and “corny” on Twitter back in September. “Is it just me or is EVERY female pop star currently in a war to secure as many GAY fans and gay $ as possible?” the rapper wrote. “This sh*t is tacky. Work B***h? lol This is not ‘gay pride,’ it’s ‘gay marketing’ …”
Do you think Britney Spears supporting an author who doesn’t like gays will affect her gay fan base?
