Ouch!

Despite Beyonce giving all kinds of ferocity all over Europe in promotion of her latest album, 4, the record itself is set to debut on the HITS album chart, selling between 275-300,000 units in its first week…which is a far cry from gurlfriend's previous effort, I Am…Sasha Fierce, which had numbers like 482,000 alone!

So disappointing!

But she should have known this was coming, with the material she chose to record!

Inneresting, just not very radio-friendly!

Better luck next time, B!

Such a disappointment!

PerezHilton.com has been informed by a Perezcious reader that last Friday night, Tracy Morgan performed a live show at the Ryman Auditorium in Nashville, TN, during which he went on a deplorable homophobic rant!

Here are some DISGUSTING excerpts from Tracy's rant:

-"All this gay shit is crazy"
-"Born This Way is bullshit"
-"Gay is a choice because God don't make no mistakes"
-"There is no way a woman could love and have sexual desire for another woman"
-"Gays need to quit being pussies and not be whining about something as insignificant as bullying"
-"Gay is something that kids learn from the media and programming"
-If Tracy's son was gay…he "better talk to me like a man and not in a gay voice or I'll pull out a knife and stab that little n**** to death"
-Tracy said he "doesn't f***ing care if he pisses off some gays, because if they can take a f***ing dick up their ***…they can take a f***ing joke."

Once again, we are VERY disappointed by this.

Awful! Just awful!

What do U think about Tracy Morgan's homophobic rant?

Absolutely disgraceful!

Arkansas Grocery store chain Harps has censored Elton John's US Weekly magazine cover featuring the singer with husband David Furnish and baby Zachary.

We would NEVER shop at an establishment that would make such an ignorant and offensive move like this.

So disappointing!

At least this time he made an effort to perform.

We reported yesterday that for some unexplained reason, Usher had to cancel his Wednesday night concert in Berlin. This morning, we have the reason, as one of our Perezilicious readers was in the audience and dished us all the gossip from last night's concert, which he also cancelled.

According to our reader, Usher kept his fans waiting more than 40 minutes on Wednesday before his management announced that the singer wasn't "feeling well." Because the show was rescheduled for last night, no one made that big of a fuss. But our reader tells us that some eyewitnesses spotted Usher at bar several hours after canceling the show.

Then, last night's drama went down. Our reader reveals that when Usher finally made it to the stage, he put on not even half a show for his audience. He "sang" only five songs (from playback not live), which were interrupted by several 5-minute breaks during which Usher left the stage.

Then, Usher began to sing all "wrong and crooked," so he stopped all together to apologize for canceling the previous day. The audience wasn't interested in his excuses, as noted by the resounding booing that came from the venue as he spoke. Usher gave it one more shot to sing the song, but then gave up and went off the stage. The lights went on, the concert was over and no one explained why.

We've got a video from that last part of the evening (above) showing the state that Usher was in when he left his adoring fans. We'll admit it, he doesn't look so good, but whether that's illness or some other demon plaguing him, we can't say.

But we will say we hope he makes this up to his fans in Berlin somehow. He stood them up not once, but twice and we're sure tickets for his tour don't come cheap. So, reschedule another concert, bb, and maybe give your fans a real reason for why you left them hanging. They deserve that much.

This is seriously disappointing!

Since things didn't work out with Ellen's wife Portia de Rossi, ABC and Dancing With The Stars have decided NOT to feature a same-sex couple on the show.

Here's what an ABC insider had to say about it:

"If Portia had agreed then this would have been a done deal. She was the only star that could have pulled this off without completely offending the program's conservative viewers."

Since she has passed though, producers have decided to "not rush into creating a same-sex dancing couple just to get attention and publicity."

Wow. Is that seriously the way in which they're looking at it? We are very, very disappointed.

Here's what a Hollywood casting director had to say about it:

"With all the debate going on about Don't Ask, Don't Tell in the country, this would have been the perfect time to do this. Yet, the show has never been about pushing the envelope. It's a huge hit because it doesn't make anyone uncomfortable."

YES! This would have absolutely been the perfect time to do this!!!!

Did we mention we're disappointed???

What do U think about this cowardly announcement by ABC and Dancing With The Stars?

We couldn't have said it better ourselves!

Alan Cumming clearly shares our disappointment with Barack Obama and his failure thus far to help gay rights - and most recently with his administration's banning the injunction on the 'Don't Ask, Don't Tell' policy - and he is speaking out against our nation's President!

He writes:

"We keep hearing tht Obama is an ally, that DADT will end under his watch, but what do we actually get? Diddly squat thus far on a federal level and in addition to that some very offensive statements that would have made the Republicans look bad. In a time when America is full of hatred of all kinds, but especially hatred towards young gay people, what message is the president sending when he repeatedly goes out of his way to spread the message that the gay population is not worthy of the respect that everyone else is?!"

Exactly! Agreed on all counts, bb!

Enough with the talk and the showmanship, we want to see ACTION!

Empty words of encouragement are only going to take this country so far! The time for change is NOW!

EQUAL RIGHTS FOR ALL!

We're starting to feel like a broken record here with our consistent disappointment!

Despite being recommended for the position by New York Senator Chuck Schumer, openly gay Daniel Alter's nomination for federal bench in the US District Court has been rejected by the White House!

According to the Washington Blade:

“But informed sources told the Washington Blade that the White House rejected Alter’s nomination because of remarks he reportedly made regarding a case challenging inclusion of the phrase ‘under God’ in the Pledge of Allegiance. In addition, the White House reportedly objected to remarks that Alter made suggesting that merchants not wish shoppers ‘Merry Christmas’ during the holidays.”

So they threw Schumer's recommendation, which is standard procedure and tradition, out just because Alter supports a separation of Church and State?!

Unbelievable.

This nonsense needs to STOP! And soon!

Thoughts??
