Mickey & Miley Give Gays the Heave-Ho

Posted Sep 26th 2008 5:35PM by TMZ Staff

For a shirtless guy in red hotpants, you'd think Mickey Mouse would be a little friendlier to the gay community.

Disney is throwing Miley Cyrus a huge 16th birthday bash at Disneyland during the same weekend as the traditional Gay Days, which brings tens of thousands of gays and lesbians to the amusement citadel.

Despite the fact that Miley's actual birthday isn't until November, the park will be shutting down early on October 5 to accommodate Miley and her tween minions.

Of course, the gays are more than welcome to hit up Disney's California Adventure theme park next door -- but who the hell wants to go there?

1. Given the way celebrities have been coming out of the closet lately (Clay Aiken, Lindsay Lohan, Lance Bass), it wouldn't surprise me one iota if Miley Cyrus annouces on her 16th Birthday, that she's also GAY.

3. I dont know what the big deal is. There are a ton of homos working there so its not like Disney is discriminating against the switch hitters or anything.

5. I think it is terrible that Disneyland invites and encourages the Gay Days. I took my three children there and we had to stand in line while two men groped eachother.

6. Hey Julie. Disneyland doesnt invite them. Its an organized group. How would you like it if you organized a family reunion and disney told you to stay out cuz you're all ugly. Get a clue!!!!

7. Dont worry about the gays. Last year they were all at the Cove Bar at DCA and I'm sure they'll be there again.

8. Gays in Disneyland is despicable!! Poor Mr Walt Disney is probabally spinning in his grave. Since hollywood loves giving their opinion to people even if we don't want to know it, I'll give mine! Homosexuality is like pedophelia in one way- just because it feels right to you doesn't mean you should satisfy your inner urges. God is the creator. I'll say it again, God is the creator and he calls it an abomination in the holy Bible!!! Just don't do it, Choose abstinence!!!
p.s. Lindsay is not happy with her gay choice, she cuts herself and looks really run down.

9. Keep your homophobic, religious-based hate out of here ! Esp. #8 - altho I have to wonder if #8 is trying to be funny, citing abstinence ---- like it worked for Palin's slut daughter.
We gays have been on Earth since time began - get used to it. As for Disneyland - Gay Day was 1st & has been happening for years. All your fear & hate won't make time go backwards - gays & lesbians are winning & that really bothers some ignorant asses.

10. Uh, I thought Disneyland was for kids anyway, not GAY DAYS. WTF??!!!!!!! Why do they feel the need to overrun Disneyland with their gayness? Why don't those losers find somewhere else to go party. Like maybe, oh I don't know, a GAY BAR!!!!!

What a hypocritic jackass you are. You preach about hate and then you call a Republican's minor daughter a slut, because she is a Republican. I'm sure all of your children and your Democratic friend's children are virgins at 17 aren't they. I'm sure you were probably taking it in the ass at age 17, so pregnancy wasn't an issue for you. Hypocrite. You are one disgusting, desplicable excuse for a human being.

12. Shutting the park early for any private celebration is lame and her celebrating her 16th birthday there is cheesy. Isn't she trying to show everyone how grown up she is? And she celebrates at Disneyland? Be careful, Miley--that It's a Small World song kinda stays in your head longer than you want it to.

13. Mel, I think he called Palin's daughter a slut because she's an unmarried minor who had premarital sex and got pregnant despite her mothers claims that teaching abstinence is all the 'sex ed' a child needs... I wonder how God the creator feels about that?

It's people like #8 and Palin and these Christian leaders who think the age of consent with a child is puberty.. and #8 has the nerve to compare being Gay with being a pedophile.. sorry you need to look at all the religious fanatics if you want to point fingers and use the term pedophile ... Evangelical Pastors, Catholic Priests, Mormons ect. They are your hypocrites.

14. Disneyland does not endorse, nor do they have any affiliation with Gays Days. Gay Days is organized by outside groups who visit not just Disneyland, but many different theme parks all over the US. There is nothing Disneyland, or any other park, can do about a bunch of people of a certain persuasion coming to their park in large numbers for a weekend. When people misbehave, gay or not, and are caught, they are ejected from the park. Period.

That said, nobody is a victim here. Disneyland closes early for private parties all the time (i.e. 6pm or 8pm) There's really no story here other than the gay groups may try to claim some sort of injustice, which would be rather ridiculous, IMO.

15. hey #9, you weirdos may have been on earth nearly from the beginning, but you're not here due to you creating more like you. hmmm, i wonder why that is? HINT: it aint natural or normal!
