As Tracy Morgan tries to recover from his recent homophobic rant, his celeb pals have stepped up to either defend or denounce what he said.
During a comedy show on Friday, Morgan basically said he would stab his son to death if he found out he was gay.
During a comedy show on Friday, Morgan basically said he would stab his son to death if he found out he was gay.
Though Morgan apologized for his "choice of words," fellow "30 Rock" stars Tina Fey and Alec Baldwin are unwilling to let it go.
Fey told Deadline, "I'm glad to hear that Tracy apologized for his comments ... but the violent imagery of Tracy's rant was disturbing to me at a time when homophobic hate crimes continue to be a life-threatening issue for the GLBT Community."
She added, "It also doesn't line up with the Tracy Morgan I know, who is not a hateful man and is generally much too sleepy and self-centered to ever hurt another person."
Chris Rock, on the other hand, had Morgan's back.
Well, sort of.
"Tracy morgan is a tad off we all know that," Rock wrote on his website. "So when tracy says something i usually don't take it anymore serious than i would a statement from gary busey or flavor flav ... [but] i get it that s--- wasn't called for and i don't support it at all. now can i please go to the tony awards without getting my ass kicked?"

♥SocialOutcastshavemorefun♥ 2011/06/13 16:29:24Tina Fey's -- there was no excuse for his hateful words+10I don't think saying that you would stab your son to death if you found out he was gay really counts as comedy.





















YIKES! as if there's a nicer way of saying you'd stab your child if he were gay.
