  2. 2

    FIRST



  3. 3

    this video is gay..



  4. 4

    probably the best psa i have seen in a long time



  5. 5

    thank u! i get so mad when my friends are always referring to everything as gay. u never know when u may accidently say that to an actual gay person.



  6. 6

    lovin' the inspirational videos perezzz



  7. 7

    I love it!! Great PSA!



  8. 8

    They couldn't have picked someone better than her to relay this message.. and though I agree it may be hurtful to the LGBT community, it's called freedom of speech, if someone wants to use the word "gay" to mean dumb or stupid, yes it may be hurtful, yes it may not be the best choice of words, yes it may be wrong in everyway shape or form, but we live here so we can say what we want to say, and if someone wants to say "gay" instead of dumb who are you to tell them any different, especially like this, it could have been done a little more tastefully, her yelling at them, making fun of them, and saying "knock it off" at the end.. didn't really say to me, "oh saying something gay is wrong" more like what a fucking twat whore she is.. Kids use hateful ways to express things all the time, make fun of shit ridiculously often, but the word "gay" is off limits because it's hurtful?!



  9. 9

    finally… someone makes a point about using this kind of insulting language.



  10. 10

    So, Perez, how bout you quit calling celebs fat? Whats the difference between calling someone fat, and saying something is gay? You make fun of that Tina girl, but yet you don't want people to say "That's so gay"? You make your living off of making fun of other celebs, and gossiping about them, however we need to quit saying thats so gay? I mean, I'm just making sure I understand completely. Its ok for you to do it, but not other people? OK….



  11. 11

    this vid is GAY



  12. 12

    Re: && I got a thing for you! – very well said!



  13. 13

    Re: && I got a thing for you!I'm not trying to be an asshole here but think about it.. kids call shit retarted when it's stupid, and there isn't a PSA for that.. Maybe they didn't mean those pants were stupid or dumb lmfao who knows.. maybe they just meant they looked like pants a gay guy would wear>? ;) haha



  14. 14

    OMG! LOVE THIS VIDEO!! For years I have been telling my friends and everyone i meet to say, "thats silly" or dumb instead of gay!! Along with the word retarded, not good either. I wish they could see this video…



  15. 15

    NO ONE would laugh at a mini statue of a chef as hard as they did. Even if they did, they would not call it gay. No one. What's up with these stupid ads anyway? They give really bad examples. Like the last one with Hilary Duff where these two girls called a top or something gay. Uh, that would not even happen. GAY!



  16. 16

    It's okay for your little twat whore Katy Perry to sing a 3 minute song about someone "being gay" and not even liking boys, but if a group of teenagers sits around at a table and says somethings gay, they should feel bad right? ;)



  17. 17

    Re: && I got a thing for you! – Would you like your mothers full name used in a comment like this - how about your name? Wouldn't be cool then, right?



  18. 18

    …sensitivity has gone downhill in these past several years. A kinder, gentler nation we are not. Maybe these PSA's will change things…can't hurt to try. "Only Yesterday" I saw a real dummy and thought about using the 'N' word but then thought again and knew it made no sense. Neither does using or 'chink' or 'wetback' or many other derogatory terms and yet many think that using 'gay' is tolerable. Those people are stupid. And ignorant.



  19. 19

    I think what she meant was that the pizza guy is obviously queer!!!



  20. 20

    lol that was funny but yeah, people should try to abstain from saying "thats gay" so often, especially when it doesn't even make sense



  21. 21

    alice……..handslap ;)



  22. 22

    She's the shit !
    and peopel who think the video is gay.. well you guys are probably sporting the thin mustache aswell..
    haterzzzzzzzzz
    love you perez!



  23. 23

    Re: && I got a thing for you! – Yeaaa I'm conviced that you're just here to be an asshole. Why would you argue this? Why would you WANT to be hurtful to someone? Because you're a low life who gets enjoyment out of making people FEEL worthless, when in reality it's you who is worthless?

    Oh and that was also freedom of speech, so…I *hope* you're not offended.



  24. 24

    Re: JaymeLove – hahahaha awesome.



  25. 25

    I really liked that little chef statue.



  26. 26

    Re: JayMo62Actually I wouldn't care.. I have enough common sense to diffirentiate between when someone is using the word to be hurtful and when someone is saying it to be an asshole, I never said that it was an appropriate term to use for anything, see my first post.. I said they don't make PSA's for people who call people retards, and that's hurtful.. it's called freedom of speech and as much as we hate it when it hurts our feelings, we tend to enjoy it quite well when we have/want something to say about someone.. I said had the PSA been done a little more tastefully and a little less like someone was yelling at them maybe it would mean more…



  27. 27

    Re: live2love – Once again.. when did I condone use of this word, please read my first post where I believe my exact words were.. "yes it may be hurtful, yes it may not be the best choice of words, yes it may be wrong in everyway shape or form" I don't condone using the word, I do think it's hateful, but I also think the way this PSA was done was not nearly as effective as it could of been, maybe it's just me, and that if they want to start preaching about using the word "gay" in replace of something maybe they should make PSA's about all the other hateful slurs people throw around.. I don't understand how that makes me look like an asshole and full of hate but whatever lmao



  28. 28

    Wanda Sykes is gay?!



  29. 29

    those psa's are so stupid. Hilary Duff and the lady in that ad are so annoying. I couldn't stand that lady's voice! She sounded like a cartoon character!

    And why is it okay for them to be rude to people for using the word "gay" while telling them it's rude? How about not being a sidebuster and keeping your stupid comments to yourself? I think butting into a strangers conversation and insulting them is a lot worse than someone saying something is gay.

    BTW. "Gay" is just slang. Get over it.



  30. 30

    THAT WAS GAY!!



  31. 31

    I think I will make a PSA about how rude it is to butt into other people's conversations and send it in to the people making these gay PSA's.



  32. 32

    WOW i love how kids are the only ones who use the word "gay" with a negative connotation. Adults do it tooooooo. not to the same extent, but still



  33. 33

    This PSA is about four years late.

    The whole "that's so gay" was a fad ages ago… most people (at least where I live) have matured up and don't even say it any more.

    Wanda's commercial is a lot better than Hilary Duff's though.



  34. 34

    You're so gay!!! and you don't even like boys!!

  35. knt says – reply to this


    35

    i think these ads have a good message in mind but i don't really get them….the point they're trying to make is that "being gay" isn't a bad thing so why do you use it in a sentence to mean the same thing as something stupid or dumb. They always give examples of things that really are stupid though…"16 year old boy with a cheesy mustache"…that really is a dumb thing, though. Do I make any sense? Probably not :D



  36. 36

    Noone says gay anymore, that is soo 2001.



  37. 37

    I went to high school with the pizza man statue and he really is gay. He told me late-night at a sleppover once, but I swore I wouldn't tell.



  38. 38

    People are seriously getting in arguments over others using the word Gay!? This psa is kinda a joke in my opinion. Gay means showing a merry lively mood. WHats the problem?
    And Perez has called peoples outfits gay…so posting this only makes you a hypocrite Perez!



  39. 39

    Right…
    You mean the word that once meant happy? Shouldn't people realize that the meaning of words can change over time, especially with a word that already HAS been changed? Get over it, and yourselves. I love homo's as much as I love everyone else, but people who complain over a word are RIDICULOUS.
    And I guess it's okay for people to use the word "bitch", "slut", "retard", etc. *rolls eyes*, of which I'm pretty sure you've used over your lifetime, especially on this blog. What about the fact that you call people with Bipolar disorder crazy? Or the fact that you even use the word "crazy"? Yeah, tons of words you use can be butchered like that, so get used to it.



  40. 40

    i remember when everyone was saying "that's so gay" in middle school. it never ends.



  41. 41

    yes we have freedom of speech but the point is not to ban the use of the expression, its to send a message that it actually can be hurtful because often it doesnt even cross the mids of the people who use it. and if they could think twice about it, they would maybe stop using it.



  42. 42

    HAHA! i luv this! so funny and it also makes a good point



  43. 43

    Okay, I'm homosexual and I am always saying "thats gay" when stuff is lame. Why is everyone sooo sensitive? I mean I know the difference when people use the word. It's all about context.



  44. 44

    Wanda Sykes is awsome.. ihihhihi



  45. 45

    First of all, the gay people are the one that are always calling other gays names.- "She is so out it"-refearing to a man…"Girl, you are creazy"-refearing also to a man.

    I appreciated the commercial but I also resent it because soon we will not be able to said shit, everything it's wrong, everything is a tabu…..Jesus, I feel I'm leaving in a fucking totalitarian country!

    Yeah the fucking "sculpture" was very, very GAY!…What's wrong with being gay? ….



  46. 46

    Bad: making anti-gay slurs.
    Worse: CENSORSHIP OF FREE SPEECH



  47. 47

    hey perez thanks for posting up the PSA commercial I sent you :)

  48. GeKaa says – reply to this


    48

    Loved it! I´m from norway and the say "omg! that´s so gay" to EVERYTHING here tooo. Makes me very irritated …



  49. 49

    I love Wanda=)
    I seen this video a while ago and now I do what Wanda did sometimes^^. Iv only done it twice because nobody dose it any more

  50. Moec says – reply to this


    50

    So politically correct.

    But, maybe they're right.



  51. 51

    I like this. I just with they'd make one for the word "retarded" too. I've worked with individuals with profound mental retardation for the last 3.5 years and it really erks me when people use the word so freely instead of "stupid" or something.



  52. 52

    Wow… this is REALLY the VIDEO that will CHANGE people's MINDS and BEHAVIOR…. errr: NOT!



  53. 53

    Hey Perez……So this isn't okay, but everybody you make fun of and slam is???



  54. 54

    Why aren't these on TV?

    And people could be more creative than "this video is so gay"..it's not funny if it's predictable



  55. 55

    lol i think its funny. good job perez



  56. 56

    THANK YOU!

    im gay and i honestly find it hurtful when people say that….



  57. 57

    Re: && I got a thing for you!

    your so idiotic! No shit you CAN say it! It's not like people are saying you arnt ALLOWED to say it!

    The point is that it's offfensive to homosexuals for something that isnt their fault! If you are a 16 yr old with a gross pube-stach that IS your fault and thus that is grounds for someone to make fun of you. Its not nice to make fun of your pube-stach, but at least its not a cheap shot at the way someone was born.



  58. 58

    i say gay all the time.
    its pretty bad.
    maybe i shud stop

    its a habit.

    "like wtf thats gayyyyyyy."

    its pretty bad.
    >



  59. 59

    I do believe that everyone needs to get along and be friends. But when it comes to having to be PC over EVERY LITTLE word, then that's too much. Just as people need to be sensitive to differences, minorities need to not be so sensitive and make everyone walk on egg shells.



  60. 60

    Saying something is dumb or stupid is just as insulting. In the Philippines, calling some one stupid is one of the worst insults there is.

    Should those who can't walk be offended if we say something is lame?

    Seriously, everyone should stop taking offense to everything and making it all personal. Cause sometimes it's not.



  61. 61

    Thirty minutes and counting until Sarah Palin is on SNL. Mad TV is on now…love it. Perez, you need to do a gay skit with Bobby Lee.



  62. 62

    Oh yea, two girls just kissed on MadTV while singing, I Kissed A Girl and I Liked It.



  63. 63

    k-lee&joeh205 do you realize perez is gay?
    get off his website if you're going to say stupid stuff like that



  64. 64

    aMEN to that



  65. 65

    Cocacola head= You really are truly an asshole in every sense of the word.in tolatarian regimes gay bashing and harrassment is condoned,so bigoted jerks like you would feel right at home. When I see a group of guys in junior -high and high school gathered ,there is two words they use over and over again,and thats gay and fag,both not cool and both hateful speech ,so when people are trying to reduce the high suicide rate in gay teens by trying to teach people not to act like animals you should aprreciate that as a good thing. By the way I feel sorry for trash like you that only feels free if you can harrass a group thats always getting harassed,wow youre cool. fk off and die.



  66. 66

    Im amazed that trash on here defends the usage of that word in that context,its called hate and you can sell it anyway you like,but it is what it is.



  67. 67

    wow, the people who say this video is "so gay" are sooo STUPID
    jackasses..



  68. 68

    total pwnage



  69. 69

    I lovee Wanda Sykes, she's so funny!



  70. 70

    Re: MorganBrittny
    Loves it!



  71. 71

    wow that was gay..



  72. 72

    This commercial is gay sadly.
    :(
    Freedom Of Speech.



  73. 73

    Re: karencarpenter – Good fucking point. I guess the n-word or other racist remarks are covered under "freedom of speech," yet it's a widely-held belief that we shouldn't use those derogatory terms. Plus, if you say it while committing a crime against said person, you're in for a hate crime charge. If calling something "gay" is OK, then that person should also be OK with being insulted for their gender, race, religion, etc. Freedom of speech has it's consequences, y'all.



  74. 74

    wanda sykes is gay??? i think im gay too. thats what being in a draining marriage makes you.



  75. 75

    its all in how you say things. say what the fuck you want, just dont say it offensively. the things that people get offended with are banned from speech because of idiots that like to abuse speech. as you can see the word'cracker' holds no merit because white people have no emotional attachments with it. but being gay, jewish,black, and anything else different, people have been killed for. millions! so the only thing you can do is punish the people that still live in the state of mind.until the day when everyone can me judged by character it will always be.'gay' should be included but homosexuals arent really taking a stand for it.



  76. 76

    I'm so with her!!!!! I HATE that saying!!!!! That and saying that something's "retarded". Some people so suck big.



  77. 77

    re:&& I got a thing for you!
    Your a dumbass!
    Our society is littered with things like this and the point is to teach people that they can say and do things that can be hurtful to one another and not even realizing it. Think about what you say before you say it. it would be highly inappropriate to use the "N" word like this or similar words. People should be aware and not be such ass holes like you.



  78. 78

    Re: && I got a thing for you! – your a fucking idiot, love, Canada



  79. 79
