Jennifer Holliday Pulls Out of Trump Inauguration, Apologizes to LGBT Community

‎1‎/‎14‎/‎2017‎ ‎12‎:‎40‎:‎46‎ ‎PM ·

So let’s talk breach of contract here, shall we?

She cancels at the last minute. No acceptable excuse (illness). She’s able to perform but unwilling.

There’s got to be a sizable financial penalty for that.

I assume she has fans who planned to attend, she stood them up. Maybe she should be forced to compensate them too?

Who knows if she’ll show up for her next gig? Better not to take the risk of buying tickets.

Note that she apologized not to the fans who may have wanted to see her, but to the LBGTZQY community. Guess if you're not gay, she doesn't care about you, huh?

I’ve pretty much stopped watching any TV and movies produced by Hollywood.

With the exception of live college sports, I gave the finger to 98% of American tv/movies years ago.

The Brits are my go-to choice for dramas, whether historic or contemporary.
They make some excellent stuff, and can be readily found out there on the 'net.

H'wood can KMA.

I cannot boycott that which I do not patronize - which is another way of saying that I make a concerted effort not to enrich lefty partisans with my hard earned dollars.

Phuk them and add another one to the list.

The problem is, even a lot of the Brits can’t keep their mouths shut. I watch mainly KDramas now.

There’s a whole world of entertainment out there outside of Hollywood.

“The left calls Trump a fascist yet here they are acting like mega-fascists every day, “Do what we say or there will be hell to pay”.”

We need to destroy the MSM. They are the purveyors of this hate. Remove that from the equation and these “snowflakes” will start acting like normal people.

Korean and Japanese dramas are also good.
With the internet, there are a lot of alternative to Hollywood

“Holliday cited backlash from her LGBT fans as for why she will no longer be partaking in the festivities.”

Now she can depend on those people for her income.

I just download it off of BitTorrent.

I feel no remorse over it. Enjoyed a couple of movies yesterday on their dime in fact.

Replace her with a singer who cares more for America than their fans genitalia.

But if you don’t bake a cake for a gay wedding, we’ll fine you and close down your bakery.

Where have you bean? It has always been the case that bullying liberals is bad, but bullying conservatives is just payback that they richly deserve. Because obviously conservatives spend their entire waking hours engaging in bullying activities upon helpless snowflakes, racism against people of color, and sexual harassment or debasement of women. They hate and fear anyone that looks like them, and they especially hate those who claim a different gender than what their biological bodies dictate they are.

Or to put it into terms as they would, conservatives are even worse than Satan himself, for they believe in God and righteousness, and things like accountability and meritocracy. Conservatives = haters, misogynists, racists, xenophobes, disdain for theLGBTQQIP2SAA community, and yes, bullies.

For those not completely versed, don't feel bad for sure, but here is the parsing for the LGBTQQIP2SAA community:

Over time, a number of other additions have been suggested to the LGBT acronym. The most common is Q, signifying “questioning” to recognize that many people are uncertain about their sexual orientation or gender identity (or both). Some also use the Q for queer. At full throttle, the letters wind up something like LGBTQQIP2SAA – Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender,

Two Q’s to cover both bases (queer and questioning);
I for Intersex, people with two sets of genitalia or various chromosomal differences;
P for Pansexual, people who refuse to be pinned down on the Kinsey scale;
2S for Two-Spirit, a tradition in many First Nations that considers sexual minorities to have both male and female spirits;
A for Asexual, people who do not identify with any orientation; and
A for Allies, recognizing that the community thrives best with loving supporters, although they are not really part of the community itself.

Holiday realized she’d never headline another LGBLT pride festival.
