Ellen DeGeneres has said Kim Burrell will not appear on her show after the gospel singer made homophobic comments.
Burrell referred to "the perverted homosexual spirit" during a sermon at a church in Houston, Texas.
She had been due to sing with Pharrell Williams on The Ellen DeGeneres Show later this week.
But the talk show host, who is a well-known advocate of gay rights, tweeted: "For those asking, Kim Burrell will not be appearing on my show."
'No excuses'
DeGeneres had been asked by fans to cancel Burrell's planned appearance and an online petition was launched.
In a video published after the sermon, Burrell said: "I love you and God loves you but God hates the sin in you and me."
The singer said she made "no excuses or apologies" for her comments.

Capice?
Ah, yes. More from the “Tolerance for thee but not for me.” crowd.
Nope.
All together now — RACISM!!!!!!!!
Saying “the perverted homosexual spirit” does not express fear of homosexuals but rather is an opinion about the source of homosexual behavior, namely a perverted spirit. Reject the perversion of language by perverted spirits.
:: She has a show? ::
As long as she is breathing and ‘munching carpets’...yes.
Sounds like a badge of honor.
God’s way or man’s way. Bravo Kim!
You’re one up on me. I’ve watched her for maybe 5 seconds.
If it’s any consolation, I spent most of my time shuddering and cringing. :0)
Doodle,
Can you not see the hypocrisy involved?
If a simple, local bakery can be legal found as a ‘public accommodation’, why can’t a nationally televised “show” NOT be found as an equivalent ‘accommodation’?
Or...do you find the Fake-Stream-Media to be exempt from ^public accommodation^?
There I fixed it
There’s nothing gay about being queer.
Sorry, didn’t ping/include you in the response.
More coffee, please Mr. Barista!
Ellen DeGenerate is just another little pink mafia enforcer. It infuriates them that there are un-brainwashed people who will not agree to say that homosexuality/lesbianism is normal and acceptable.
I would criticize ABCDisney if they gave David Duke a platform.
Kim Burrell is not refusing to appear on Ellen DeGeneres’ program so are you comparing Kim Burrell to David Duke and citing that as justification for Ellen to blacklist the singer?
Since the Ellen show apparently has a litmus test, is there a pre-screening interview to eliminate all practicing Christians from appearing on the show?
Hey Ellen!
The truth is “hate” for you because you hate the truth.
You’ve been warned!
Well...looks like a “good XPian” might file legal action...
Doubtful, in this case.
We all do - and the funny thing is we who sound that alarm are called the most repulsive things.
It’s a no win situation. You warn them, you’re a “hater”. You don’t warn them, they’ll blame you post Judgement for not warning them.
Lost souls are the biggest hypocrites.
