Gays and straights alike are up in arms over jokes told by comedian Jamie Foxx during the iHeartRadio Music Awards on Sunday.
Foxx cracked jokes about Bruce Jenner’s so-called “transition” into a woman, saying, “We’ve got some groundbreaking performances here, too, tonight. Bruce Jenner will be here doing some musical performances — he’s doing a his-and-her duet all by himself.”
He continued: “Look, I’m just busting your balls while I still can.”
Ultra sensitive, openly gay celebs such as Perez Hilton were the first to cry foul on social media.
Perez, who makes a living as a gossip blogger, tweeted: “Boo! Shame on you #iHeartAwards for allowing @iamjamiefoxx to be transphobic on national television! Those #BruceJenner jokes were wrong!!!”
Despite the fact that Jenner hasn’t come out publicly and said he is transitioning into a gender stereotype of a woman, his behavior in recent months leads us to assume he’s headed in that direction.
Jenner plans to discuss his gender confusion in an upcoming interview with Diane Sawyer. He is also scheduled to document his “transition” in a reality show docuseries that has been momentarily shelved — probably due to a lack of advertisers.
