T.R. Knight Lends His Voice and His Paycheck!

Filed under: Gay Gay Gay > T.R. Knight > Inspiration

teeer-knight.jpg

Joining a host of other celebrities determined to strike down Prop 8, Grey Anatomy's T. R. Knight has donated $50,000 to the campaign to keep marriage for everyone in California.

His donation comes after polling anxiety caused Equality California to call an emergency meeting. The hefty donation is also in response to Ohio entrepreneur Jonathan Lewis' challenge to LA's entertainment industry to raise $500,000 for No On Prop. 8. He and his family will match every donation henceforth, dollar for dollar.

And LA has responded with gusto, with Fall Out Boy chipping in $50,000, Angels in America writer Tony Kushner throwing down $15,000, and E! talk-show host Chelsea Handler adding $5,000.

It's a good show but there's still a little ways to go and the election is coming up fast!

The California deadline to register to vote is OCTOBER 20TH, so get a move on!!!

Look, we'll make it easy for you: Declare Yourself.

Now you have no excuse!

Hopefully other celebs will follow T.R.'s example!

    who caresssssss. it's just a tax write off so he's going to get most if not all back anyways!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    He's wasting his money. Prop 8 will pass overwhelmingly. Gays will still be able to love who ever they want in bath houses, bars, bushes, toilet stalls, or if they are responsible –which there are many responsible gays out there because I know them — in the privacy of their own home. gays will still have domestic partnership rights. Being gay will not be deemed illegal. No police offer will arrest someone who is gay because prop 8 passes. Prop 8 doesn't impede in a gay's person to love or his right to love who he wants. He just won't be able to get a piece of paper saying they are married. So rejoice!

  28. 28

    have you donated yet P?

  29. 29

    P-you should donate!!

    WARDEN WHITE TRASH, IT WILL BE CLOSE,BUT ITS ONLY A MATTER OF TIME,AS THE OLDER TRASH DIES THE YOUNGER GENERATION IS NOT AS BIGOTED . SO ENJOY TAKING AWAY RIGHTS FROM PEOPLE IN CALIFORNIA,I HOPE YOUR NAZI SIDE LOSES, ASSHOLE THE GOP IS THE TALIBAN IN THE UNITED STATES. FURTHERMORE GAYS DONT HAVE GANGS AND RAMPANT RAPISTS AND SUPER VIOLENT ELEMENTS THAT PLAGUE THE HETRO-SEXUAL COMMUNITY. SO IF YOU KEEP THE GAY MARRIAGE THAT EXISTS TODAY IN CA ,IT MIGHT MAKE THE CONSERVATIVE IN THE CLOSET TYPES LIKE SEN. LARRY CRAIG NOT HAVE BATHROOM STALL SEX. NO ON 8. AND UNLIKE THE LIARS IN THE REPUBLCIAN PARTY THE JUDGES THAT SAID GAYS SHOULD BE ABLE TO MARRY IN CA WERE REPUBLICAN, THEY JUST SAID ENOUGH TO SECOND CLASS STATUS AND REDUCED RIGHTS AND MONETARY BENEFITS FOR GAYS. VOTE NO ON8

    Reality check time…. T.R. Knight better save his pennies - he's the least talented actor on Greys Anatomy. And that's saying something!

    Proponents of Prop 8 continue to lie in their television ads.

    This is affecting voters to turn AGAINST GAY MARRIAGE.

    If we all donate at least $50.00 this HATEFUL and DISCRIMINATORY Proposition will be defeated.

    NO to HATE. NO on 8. DONATE: www.NoOnProp8.com

    NO on HATE. No on 8. Don't Discriminate, NO on 8!

    Just as an individual's sexual orientation is not a legitimate basis
    on which to deny housing or a job, it is not a legitimate basis on
    which to deny individuals the right to marry. Californians should
    reject the call to amend the state constitution to exclude some people
    from marriage. That would be a black mark on the constitution, just as
    past exclusionary acts remain a stain on California's history.

    NO on HATE. NO on 8
