Perez -- So Sorry for Gay Slur

Perez HiltonPerez Hilton is apologizing for the gay slur he threw at Will.I.Am on Sunday night in Toronto -- with an asterisk.

GLAAD had asked the battered blogger for an "I'm sorry" a few days back -- but Hilton makes it perfectly clear that GLAAD can pound sand.

Here's the mea culpa for calling Will.I.Am a "fa**ot."

"I am apologizing to the gay community, to anyone who was hurt by my choice of words," adding "the 'F' word will never be uttered from my lips again."

Perez also says, "I have reached out to Isaiah Washington, someone I incorrectly labeled a homophobe, despite his own public statements that he was not."

61. He's apologizing because his blog traffic/ad revenue took a dip. Ironic that he's reaching out to Isaiah Washington now, after leading the pack to crucify the guy when HE said that nasty word. P.Hilton may have apologized, but he'll get no more page views from me.

62. He shouldn't alienate the gay and straight communities. Making jokes or slandering a group, even if you are part of that group is still not acceptable. He needs to get into a good anger management program.

ModCloth.com - I wrote yesterday and they said they would be looking into the situation. Please contact "support @ modcloth.com" to "Hung". Please call or email and tell them why you won't be watching.

64. Yeah, he wasn't too hurt to Twitter the whole thing, right? This guy is a tool! If he can't take one measly punch, he's an even bigger tool. I'm ashamed he's a man! The whole pic with the lil scratch and the tear makes me LOL. It's about time someone brought it to that level, unlike the others who had to befriend him and kiss his ass so he'd stop writing about them.

68. Shoe is on the other foot, now Perez wants to apologize to Isaiah Washington to prove that he ( Perez Hilton) is NOT a homophobe because he said the same thing Isaiah said. What a hypocrite.

69. The only reason he's "backtracking" is because traffic on his site is down. He's a self-obsessed turd who should now go away. His blog was fun in the beginning, but has been nothing but a hate fest for a long time now. He constantly ranked on Fergie for her looks, which had nothing to do with her music. He did that to ALL women who had boyfriends/husbands who he was sexually attracted to and wanted for himself! GO AWAY, TRASH TALKER!

Thanks poster #54, Rantee.

Hoping that the companies that advertise on this bigot's site will feel the pain for supporting him.

HBO is one of Perez's advertiserss.

I don't watch a lot of HBO, seems they run the same movies over and over, so no problem cancelling HBO off of my csable. It'll save me approx. $17 bucks a month.

73. Hmm.. a quick little jab in the face will give you a black eye for a few days but it won't kill someone.. calling some a f***** can lead a person to commit suicide. It's called mental abuse, which is A LOT more difficult to heal than a black eye. Hence why so many gay teens, kids, etc. end up killing themselves from being teased and taunted by the word which Perez used to attack someone else. And by using it in the way he did, he reinforces the negative through which it mentally taunts gay boys, girls, men and women. I understand people make mistakes and say hurtful things sometimes when they're in the heat of the moment, but you should still apologize to GLAAD and drop the lame ass lawsuit for something you were just as guilty of. Donate money to the Matthew Sheppard foundation from your own pocket considering you make over 300 grand a month with your website. And you should be donating a lot more than 25 grand. It won't redeem ya, but it's a half decent start. Next time, think before you spew out hateful words. Violence is never the answer, but mental abuse through 'name calling' can cause just as bad if not worse damage to a persons self-worth. Only that kinda pain lasts a lot longer than a little jab in the face.
