Michelle Shocked lled herself gay. Now she’s chasg away her fans by tntg, “God hat fags.” * michelle shocked gay *
” How wasn’t long before Shocked, a progrsive sger-songwrer and activist bt known for her 1988 album Short Sharp Shocked, unleashed an anti-gay tira durg that show on Sunday night. Hors of dience members had already begun to funnel out , Shocked seems to have scuttled any chance at revivg her mic reer—and pleted a shockg evolutn om implic lbian to gay-hatg zealot. “You n go on Twter and say Michelle Shocked said ‘God hat fags, ’” the sger railed, om the stage, acrdg to wns, the ncln of a monologue about the evils of gay marriage and overturng California’s Proposn 8, which legally f marriage as a unn between a woman and man.
“When they stop Prop 8 and force prits at gunpot to marry gays, will be the downfall of civilizatn, and J will e back. ”To add sult to, well, sult, Shocked was performg the very liberal—and very gay iendly—San Francis. The operator of the venue, Yoshi’s, terpted the performance, sayg that, as a gay man, he uld not allow Shocked to ntue and mand she leave the stage.
This sight om @JasonChworth is a prime example of the enraged nfn Shocked’s ments igned: “Most surprisg part of @MShocked 's San Fran rant: disverg that Michelle Shocked isn't gay. Her views on homosexualy quickly evolved, but were hardly homophobic.
