Fresh Allegations That Tracy Morgan Is Homophobic

By HuffPost Entertainment Editors Posted Jun 10th 2011 10:10AM

UPDATE 12:20PM | Tracy has apologized, saying his routine "clearly went too far and was not funny in any context." Full Story

He's responsible for many a joke on '30 Rock,' but if true, Tracy Morgan's latest standup set is no laughing matter. A man named Kevin Rogers attended Morgan's standup show last Friday and reported on his Facebook page that Morgan let loose a viciously homophobic rant that, as far as he could tell, was a dead serious attack on gay men and women. Rogers, who is gay, wrote:

I figured at some point the gay jokes would fly and I'm well prepared for a good ribbing of straight gay humor. I have very thick skin when it comes to humor; I can dish and I can take. What I can't take is when Mr. Morgan took it upon himself to mention about how he feels all this gay s*it was crazy and that women are a gift from God and that "Born this Way" is bulls*it, gay is a choice, and the reason he knows this is exactly because "God don't make no mistakes" (referring to God not making someone gay cause that would be a mistake).

Perhaps most strikingly, Rogers alleges that Morgan said:

He said if his son that was gay he better come home and talk to him like a man and not [he mimicked a gay, high pitched voice] or he would pull out a knife and stab that little N (one word I refuse to use) to death.

Rogers continued to describe the rant, which we've excerpted:

He took time to visit the bulls*it of this bullying stuff and informed us that the gays needed to quit being p*ssies and not be whining about something as insignificant as bullying. He mentioned that gay was something kids learn from the media and programming, and that bullied kids should just bust some ass and beat those other little f*ckers that bully them, not whine about it.

As it stands, Morgan's reps refused to comment to gay issues site Unicornbooty.com, writing, "There is no comment, thank you for your inquiry."

The Ryman Auditorium responded in a statement, saying it "regrets that people were offended" by the performance but adds the disclaimer that it "does not control the content presented by people appearing on its stage, nor does it endorse any of the views of, or statements made by, such persons."

Tracy should apologize, as soon as the gays, lesbians, bi's and cross dressers apologize for corrupting our society and forcing their unnatural lifestyles down our children's throats.

This drunk has more DUI'S than 30 Rack has viewers. Fire his 40 Colt butt Tina/NBC!

Morgan should have chosen his words a little better BUT he is exactly right. Being GAY is a choice, some people make terrible choices some do not.

sylvabugg, I'm not gay, but I will gladly stay as far away from you as is possible. I'd rather have dozens of gay friends than one azzhole like you.

By david hodo

Tracy, you have a symbiotic relationship with Tina Fey and Alec Baldwin, you are only funny because of their outstanding talent.
Alone, you're about as funny as a cancer cell.

Then why do the gays and liberals in Hollywood keep hiring him? I'm not a big fan of his and don't agree with some of his words but I also don't think he's homophobic.

By Rod

Love the left double standard how it's okay to make fun of ohhhhh....white people,conservatives,people who go to church,people from the South....but god forbid you make fun of a black person or a gay person.Than you're just racist or homophobic.Nice double standard

By Max

I'm black and I agree with you 100% it's a double standard.

I have also seen this guy's stand up at the Funny Bone. His act is disgusting and just plain not funny. He actually joked about a sexual experience he had with his wife while she was holding his baby. He said his junk kept hitting his baby in the face while he was trying to get his wife to service him. So, it is no surprise to me that he would have a hate filled rant equal to the disgusting, perverted one I had to sit through, of which I walked out of. A total waste of 70 bucks for my partner and I's tickets. I don't think he would have half the fame if everyone knew what a piece of crap this guy really is.

You made a choice by walking out just the way your making a CHOICE of who your partner is right. Tracy made a choice of his routine. We all make choices.

By Brad

I have NEVER enjoyed Morgan. He isn't remotely funny, he was dull on SNL and even moreso on his own. He is an example of someone who probably appeals to smaller brains.

Your brain must be really small because you keep watching him.

By jason

Well spoken Jason!

I do thank God. I thank Him for my son who is gay and for my sons who aren't. God doesn't make mistakes..., He created them the way He wanted them.

Why the hell would anyone CHOOSE a lifestyle that would bring them condemnation and crap from people like you for the rest of their lives? How could you CHOOSE to deny your strong, natural sexual urges towards the opposite sex? Get a grip. Did you CHOOSE to be straight?
