  • Comedian Jerrod Carmichael recently came out as gay in his Netflix special, "Rothaniel," and shared his gratitude to Ellen for coming out on her sitcom 25 years ago. He explained that his mom welcomed Ellen in their home, a feat he never thought was possible for his more conservative parents, and even joked that Ellen is a "gay, white Desmond Tutu" for spreading so much love. Jerrod also talked about how he was terrified to publicly say he's gay, and how his family feels now after his truth coming out.

    This is SUCH an important and vital conversation.
    People forget how much of a risk Ellen took by coming out.
    How important a risk that was.
    How many people she inspired.

    As a straight person it is heartbreaking to see someone not be able to accept who s/he really is when s/he is born that way, It must be SO SO hard and I hope you continue do yourself proud. That is really all that matters because the rest of the good stuff WILL follow. Much love ❤️

    It’s sad to hear his response to Ellen’s question about how did his parents take it, be that he had to create distance, and looked up saying it’s okay. I remember him coming out a few years ago saying he was bisexual in an interview. So I guess his family didn’t see that.

    To me what really is sad is if the current GOP has its way they will make it more difficult for people to come out in the future. There are many Evangelicals that are fans of Ellen yet don't share her love and acceptance.
