KATHY BAT: THE GAY TERVIEW
I worry about my gay and transgenr iends. Long before dishg lbian wisdom to Melissa McCarthy’s ms of a character this summer’s road-trip edy Tammy, which opens tomorrow, Kathy Bat had the gay muny shackl.
Our Chris Azzopardi sat down wh her to discs the gay boys she first met Dallas, kissg girls and her drag impersonators. I thk almost more difficult than for men to e out as gay. Growg up the South and the Methodist church, what was your troductn to the gay muny?
IS KATHY BAT GAY OR IN A RELATNSHIP AND WHAT IS HER NET WORTH NOW?
I really didn’t know what gay was until I got to llege [at SMU], but I was really love wh two of the guys who were the theater partment and then I realized they were love wh each other. So, when I brought gay iends home to vis, was really kd of funny to see them react. Why do we have to ask if somebody’s gay or straight?
It’s rehg to see a gay uple portrayed as the most “together” part of the story. What do you thk that says about how far we’ve e as a society regardg gay issu?
I remember beg at a weddg; was a male gay uple and they mt’ve been their 70s. I remember last summer I was on vatn wh my bt iend, who’s gay, and we heard about Prop 8 and how people were gonna be allowed to marry, and ’s jt like, why do have to be legislated?
