Rufus Wainwright Misquote


Apparently, Rufus Wainwrightwas misquoted on a statement regarding his views on gay marriage. The singer recently posted an explanatory but still eyebrow raising correction on his website. He said “Recently, a quote from an interview was taken out of context and as these things go, it has appeared on many internet sites. So, to set the record straight (or shall we say gay), I am not nor have I ever been opposed to anyone’s right to marry – straight or gay… Plus, in terms of practical issues such as citizenship, taxes, inheritance, etc…it is appauling that LGBT couples don’t have the same rights and options that other people have and compared with Europe and Canada, the US should be ashamed of how they treat love. I have voiced my strong opposition to Prop 8 on many occasions and will continue to do so until that referendum is reversed.”
