Isaiah Washington Supports Gay Marriage - For Reals!
Looks like "F" bomb dropper Isaiah Washington is working hard to rehab his image in the gay community.
Washington just made a big donation to the Equality California fund that's working to stop the anti-marriage amendment on the November California ballot.
The former Grey's Anatomy star's famous publicist, Howard Bragman, married his same-sex partner this week. And, in lieu of gifts, Bragman asked his friends and clients to donate to the fund.
The publicist said, “Chuck and I were very touched by his [Isaiah's] generosity and his support of this cause, and we expect many other high-profile contributions. He said wishes us all the best and he supports the rights of others in our community to get married.”
Washington has taken a baby step in the right direction.
Is he trying to buy our affection????

too little too late….
Give it a rest Perez. He's trying! Give me that! Jerk!
first!
wow umm yea
FIRST
What a Catch 22, he is criticized if he donates (as "trying to buy affection") and he'd also be criticized if he didn't
BAM!!
Perez, please take down the porn user id pics on your site. You are losing LOTS of readers by allowing this trash!!!!!!!!!!!!!
DON'T YOU BELIEVE IT!!!!!!
no. I think he realized he made a mistake and now he is just doing what he feels is right.
good for him,
i totally see it as trying to better his image. however, i think we should just all move on. i'm gay and i'm even over it. it was a horrible thing that he said but it's not like he got us into a war or is killing babies. i personally don't like him but he shouldn't continue to catch crap for that situation.
i guess he bought your affection fat fuck pig.
Oh my goodness…..pleeeeeeeeeez let me support dem fa…uhhhhh…gay marriages. I have seen the light……..and I need to work in Hollywood. I am the black Lazarus and I have arisen again to say,
"I'M SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO SORRY TO ALL YOU FA…….UH, GAYS."
BOO HOO HOO…..BOO HOO HOO……BOO HOO HOO….BOO HOO HOO
BOO HOO HOO…..BOO HOO HOO……BOO HOO HOO….BOO HOO HOO

no he is not trying to buy you love. The whole grey's thing was a heat of the moment type of thing that was blown up to further the careers of others. that not an excuse as he played into the bull. however, one never gives up the hard earned cash unless one stands behind the reasons for doing so.
COME BAK TO GREY'S PLEAAAAAAAAAAASEEEEEEEEE. TR IS SO ANNOYING!!!!
Grey's Anatomy sucks anyways. Who watches that crappy show? What happened to free speach in this country? Why is it that only black people and gays have the right to speak their minds? I'm over it.

I'm gay and I'd say this pretty much redeems him. Give the guy a break.
he soooo looks like samwell!! everytime i see this dude that songs pops in my head…i said what what in the butt…
Isaiah knows he made a mistake and has been trying to amend it. Obviously, his publist doesn't think he's a homophobe, or he wouldn't be working for him. He has taken more than babysteps to fix his mistake.
Re: Chris – FUCK YOU CHRIS YOU DICK SUCKIN BITCH!!! I HOPE YOU DIE AND GET FUCKED IN THE ASS BY YOUR MOM WHILE YOUR IN HELL!!!
This is obviously damage control, but at least someone else is benefiting from it.
He seriously needs to return to Grey's Anatomy!!! That show is getting boring. Well….except for Mcdreamy and Merideth getting back together which was sooooo romantic. Christina needs a new love interest.
I think Washington was doing it out of the kindess of his heart…… and to perhaps change his image a tad bit
I'm sure hes not trying to buy anything of yours perez….
That money could have gone to something much more important, like i don't know… those bi-daily "Worthy Cause" donations you post? You are a fucking scumbag, I don't believe in karma. However, I do believe not only will people get tired of this site, but if you stay in LA, you will get fucking MURDERED! You are like a gay version of Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson inc. - all you want is reparations. You are richer than 95% of us (the readers) and you are implying that people have to pay money for saying the word fag? And you aren't happy because it's not enough money? Or if he gave no money then he's a gay-basher? STOP USING HOMOSEXUALITY AS A WEAPON TO SHIELD YOURSELF FROM BEING INSULTED. PEOPLE HAVE A RIGHT TO DISLIKE HOMOSEXUALS. I don't ever see you talkin about how we should stop hating on Muslims, in fact, you condone it! Despite this "cruel society that hates gays" in America, you, a homosexual, got rich by flaunting your homosexuality! HYPOCRIT
i mispelled… hypocrite
Why do you have to belabour things Perez?
The guy is sorry….move on.
Same thing with Jessica don't call me latino……please….move on.
I am getting embarrassed for you and I hate that.
I feel a bit bad for the guy. Just because he used that word doesn't mean he hates gay people. Granted it isn't a nice word but come on give him a break. He has tried his hardest to come back from it so maybe he is being genuine.
Marriage= 1 Man + 1 Woman
If you are gay and you want to commit to each other fine– but it is NOT MARRIAGE.
FUCK GAY MARRIAGE!!!! And HAHA at that T.R. Knight CUNT because after he got Issiah kicked off THE SHOW IS TANKING!!!

"Let he who is without sin, cast the first stone"
Dude, we all say things we regret, move on ALREADY….
He doesn't have to buy anything from that loser. That guy lied on Isaiah Washington, not about what he said but who he said it too. I agree, he shouldn't have used the word, but when he did way it, he wasn't talking to someone who is gay. Isaiah should tell that guy to kiss his A$$, I would.
Re: MiNo ke – Re: Joce –
You are right the show is boring, but it's boring even with McDreamy and by the way, that's who Isaiah W. was talking to because he was late for work, he wasn't talking to TL Knighton or whatever his name he. He is a F for lying. Greys has lost a lot of viewer because Isaiah character was a hugh part of what made the show worth watching.
Umm, no. I don't think he gives a flying fuck what YOU think Perez. He is supporting his friend. Get over it already. A lot of people use that word in private, doesn't mean it's right, but it happens.
I HONESTLY DON'T THINK ISIAH HATES GAYS. YES, HE DID USE A SLUR WHICH IS OFFENSIVE TO MANY IN THE GAY COMMUNITY WORLD WIDE. HE'S A HOLLYWOOD ACTOR…HOLLYWOOD. THIS IS AN INDUSTRY THAT HAS BEEN A FRIEND TO THE GAY COMMUNITY FOR DECADES. AS ACTOR OR ACTRESS IF YOU DO INTEND TO BE INVOLVED IN THIS INDUSTRY YOU BEST GET OVER YOUR HOMOPHOBE. REMEMBER, HE WAS IN A "PHYSICAL" ALTERCATION WITH PATRICK DEMPSY. TEMPERS RAN HIGH THAT DAY AND HE SAID AND SINCE THEN HE'S APOLOGIZE. LETS MOVE ON AND MAKE PEACE. AND WHAT IS UP WITH THAT PERV T.R. KNIGHT DATING AN 18 YEAR OLD??????????? WHAT THESE TWO HAVE IN COMMON BESIDES THE FACT THAT T.R. IS DATING A TEENAGER! WHAT A PERV!
OMG it was just a word!
He didn't have to apologize!
f-a-g-see no big deal!
Re: HOMO! – gay bags
HE STILL HATES GAY PEOPLE……HE JUST NEEDS A JOB
BULLSHIT!!!! HE IS SUCH A HOMOPHOBE FUCKING HATE HIM, ITS ALLL FOR SHOW, I AM NOT BUYING IT
I thought his issues were more about anger management than truly feeling anti-gay in his sentiment. I mean he went to therapy, what kind of therapy did he go to, "Gay tolerance therapy?" I wish IW was back at Grey's, Burke and Christina were my favorite couple on the show. I stopped watching after Christina and Burke ended.
Too late for damage control.
Money doesn't make up for prejudice, (although somebody ought to tell blacks that, they are perfectly comfortable with money in exchange for prejudice/restitution).
As in wanting financial restitution for slavery. An absurd notion.
Money does not buy class, forgiveness, repentance, or any other matter of the heart.
Smiling idiot shithead.
Isaiah is so adorable. I'm glad he's being nice now.
Hey "Advocate" If you truely want to get rid of ignorance perhaps you might want to start with yourself. If you talk to the avarage "black" (as you put it) they are not waiting around for reparatations. They make there own money.
And Perez talk about double standards. When white celebs use the n word there is no firing just two weeks of fanfare. you kiss Paris Hilton's ass and she used the n word. But do these celebs have to buy affection?
God being tolerant is one thing but really you dont have to like everybody, I mean he obviously has issues with the gay community and that's alright that's his opinion, but he doesn't have to support something that he obviously doesn't believe in to gain respect, I would respect him more if he was just honest.
F bomb, you mean FAG like you.
The guy made a mistake! Who in the heat of the moment hasnt said something they regret. Also after he left the show it basically went down the drain
I do, but not everyone has to support gay people. People have a right to their opinions and beliefs so no, it is not a step in the right direction if it is not what he believes in. If he is doing it to 'improve' his image, then at least he is doing something; he doesn't have to do anything (whether he working good jobs or not, he IS working). Perez, you really need to give people a break when they try. I mean, you do seem to be supporting Paris Hilton who is racist as f$#k. So uh, move on and stop being selective because then, you seem like him, don't you think?
"Advocate For Eradication Of Ignorance's- "prejudice"
Pot calling the kettle black! You are the BIGGEST racist!
Re: Chole – Number 55, the words you're struggling with are "average" and "reparations" and "their".
(Just trying to eradicate your ignorance, nothing personal.)
Re: FUadv – Number 60, jump up my ass you blog-stalker.
Re: FUadv – Excuse me, you blog troll.
I think you forget that he played a gay men in Get on the Bus way before the TR thing….so I highly doubt its to repair his image
It's sad to see the guy cave into the gay mafia like that. He's only doing it so he can get work again. It's not like he believes in what he's doing.
Re: PEREZ – That doesnt mean he likes or supports gay people, its just a role he played. HELLO ACTING! He is a very good actor…if you get my drift
Re: Dagger – I totally agree, and I'm gay…I believe you should remain true to your convictions
I'm glad that Isaiah is becoming more open minded to homosexuals. I don't think he is doing it to better his image or get a decent job. I think he is really realizing that gays are people too and that they should be able to live their lives just like heterosexual people do. Good for him! (Now Shonda Rhimes, please hire Isaiah back! Your show Grey's is in the dumps without him and Kate Walsh!)!!!!
Good for Isiah. Now he just has to drop his drawers and pop out a hot creamy load for us and all will be forgiven.
Calling fag ceremonies "marriages" is a hate crime against Christians.
Doesnt he look like that guy from the "what what in the butt" music video? maybe thats just me but I think thats a "separated at birth"
he is trying to make amends. yes he said something stupid but i do so on a daily basis (although not so ignorant.) just move on.
I would also like to agree with that previous comment, that money could have gone to a better cause. What do they need money for anyway?
I forgive him. I caught a few of his movies on television lately. He is a damn good actor and very easy on the eyes to boot. I'd do him in a heart beat!
everyone needs to just move on! especially GLADD (whom are complete FREAKS, they even attack their own!).
Washington just made a big donation to the Equality California fund that's working to stop the anti-marriage amendment on the November California ballot.
So according to the above statement made by you, you clearly admit that you favor trying to stop democracy in action, eh Perez? Only fags have the right to petition the government for a redress of grievances, right? Those who oppose marriage being redefined by a group of perverted and out of touch elitist ass hats have no right to use the system to prevent a small and truly mentally fucked up minority from redefining a very important tradition and part of the culture for everyone else. I see, it's all so clear to me now, only queers are allowed to game the system.
This guy used to be awesome. He shouldn't pretend to like gays now. People should speak their damn mind and any bitch like you that gets offended should eat shit.
ohmygawd, perez. I had no idea you were gay!!!!!!!!
Perez, Isaiah Washington was one of the best things about Grey's Anatomy.
Notice that since they booted him off the show it has gone downhill fast. I can't even watch it anymore.
And the two people who garnered the most attention from the ruckus both suck.
Katherine Heigl - who I will admit I used to love - has become a self obsessed freak and TR Knight just looks like a blithering little baby.
The argument Isaiah was in wasn't even with TR Knight, if you remember. It was between he and Patrick Dempsy. TR Knight just used it as an excuse because we was too chickensh*t to just come out and tell everyone he was gay. He used this as a platform so that he could come out, while simultaneously looking like a victim.
The show will never get better because they lost one of the most critical elements.
I don't think that he owes the gay community anything because I believe that everything that was said in that argument was blown completely out of porportion so that TR Knight could get a little attention. It's unfortunate that he chose that term, but people say a lot of things that they don't mean when they are angry.
Stop making this guy pay for something that should have never even left the set. They should have worked it out privately.
LEAVE ISAIAH ALONE!
He's a way more phenomenal actor that Katherine Heigl or TR Knight will ever be.
He could get my affection just by plowing my white gay boy ass. I crave his loads in me.
good for him.
I always assumed the comment he made to TR Knight was more of a personal disliking for him than an attempt to offend the entire gay community. Not a good choice of word, but who hasn't said something wrong at some point.
He's done more to atone for it than anyone else I know who ever uttered an offensive word.
Only Perez Hilton would be the most massive hypocrite to not talk about the gay positive things Washington has done and only focus on the single negative in his relationship with the gay community.
And Advocate, stop being such a racist cunt.
Everyone makes mistakes , he's chosen to hopefully learn from his and show with these gestures that he's cognizant of them . Yes , he deserves a second chance.
He should applagize! in my country gays are hung dead!
in this country soon they will be too Allah willing!
Re: Tariq – You're country is an uncivilized pederasty hole full of married sodomite hypocrites that hang gay teens in public and rape their sons in private.

Re: Tariq – You're a revolting piece of human trash. you're country is an uncivilized pederasty hole full of married sodomite hypocrites that hang gay teens in public and fuck their sons in private.
Well if he's tying to buy our affection. IT'S WORKING! Cause I'm a big whore like that LOL.
Isaiah who? Just go away FOREVER!!!
Yeah! he was the best thing on greyz (mcdreamy aside).
Wheeew pamie - you go girl!
Isaiah - you rock! You are hotter than McDreamy ever was, and if this society wasn't so racist, you'd be on the cover of every magazine. You're also one of the best actors EVER and should be on the Hollywood A list. I knew you weren't a homophobe, and so did many others. We love you Isaiah and want to see you back on the big and small screen asap.
xxxooo
russo
I MISS DR. BURKE!
Re: Still – I agree with every sentiment, and its how I felt about the entire sordid affair all along - and I told Perez as much. I will not watch Grey's again without Isaiah - PERIOD. Hiegel is a good actress but she sucks as a person, and they should have never killed off that hunk who played the heart patient boyfriend. He was almost as hot as Isaiah, but nobody's that hot. And neither McDreamy or McSteamy will ever measure up to Isaiah's hotness.
Isaiah RULES!
Perhaps the media controversy caused him to reevaluate his beliefs? My beliefs from the past are MUCH different from my beliefs now. And many of them changed very suddenly…like an epiphany.
Isaiah appears to have had a fundamental attitude shift. It takes a strong man to fess up and make good on old mistakes. I admire him for this putting his money where his reformed mouth is. I would take him for lunch if I knew him.
For god's sake Perez, if the man does nothing he's a homophobic bastard and if he does something nice he's buying your affection. Frankly, he probably doesn't give a tinkers damn about your affection. Can't you just say 'thank you' ?
so, he gave a donation. now we know, it is about the money. we love people who love queers, if they give queers money.
I know you have an elephant's knack for holding a grudge, but maybe its time to forgive and forget on this one ?
he was the talent on grey's. and the best thing on bionic woman.
hey isaiah
i'm a gay man in la. and i completely accept your gesture.
thx
thank you.
and i will proudly continue suppoting my african american
friends as i would have regardless.
but i have to say… my heart does smile when i heard that
you are the good man i always thought you were !!
