Wayne Brady, the host of the game show
Let's Make a Deal, says he has no choice but to support gay marriage.
The 40-year-old Brady is also widely
known for his work as a regular on the improvisational comedy series
Whose Line Is It Anyway?, which ran for 8 seasons on ABC, and
his daytime talk show The Wayne Brady Show, which ended in
2004 after one season on ABC and two in syndication.
In a new video from all-gay cabler
Logo, Brady explains his support for marriage equality.
“You could easily substitute black
for gay,” Brady, who is African-American, says in the 1-minute ad.
“In the sense of, years ago a black person couldn't marry a white
person. It was illegal. You could be killed. I could be stopped on
the street. I could be pulled out of my house.”
“Someone told us we could not be with
the people we wanted to be [with] and treated us like second-class
citizens.”
“So that being said, in all
consciousness I have to, I must, support the fact that you need to
love who you want to love.” (The video is embedded on this page.
