The gay part of the Internet is all buzzy today over
an interview the actual Carol Channing recently gave, in which she revealed what seems to be a new attitude.
KK: You seem to have a very large gay following. Have you ever thought about why?
CC: I don’t think about them. I’m grateful that they seem to like me. They’re terribly loyal to me. But I’m knee-deep in the Bible and you know what it says about that.
KK: Alright.
CC: Oh, dear. Is this for a gay publication? Have I offended you?
KK: Yes. For the Gay People’s Chronicle. Right now, it’s really not my job to be offended or not be offended. I am just asking questions and reporting answers. I read that you have fought for gay rights. Do you think that the things gay people are fighting for are important?
CC: I don’t think about it. If they can’t take care of their own problems, why should I bother. It’s not my problem.
KK: I see.
And, by coincidence, tonight for one night only at Joe's Pub, it's
Carol Channeling! Poor fake Carol--do you think she's writing a whole new act right this moment (she's on at 11:30pm)? She could act like it didn't happen (that's my approach, for one), but if any crowd would know, it's hers.
