Actor Cheyenne Jackson on Monday
accused Minnesota Rep. Michele Bachmann surrogates of dissing his
weekend marriage to Monte Lapka.
On Saturday, the 36-year-old openly gay
actor messaged the news of his nuptials to his more than 30,000
Twitter followers.
“It's official, after 11 years
together, Zora's no longer a bastard,” he wrote, referring to his
dog Zora. “Married the best man I've ever known.”
On Monday, he added: “Thx 4 the luv!
MOSTLY from the charming Bachmann supporters RT @GodsWordIsLaw:
@cheyennejackson Fyi, you'll never have a REAL marriage. #no4m”
Jackson was responding to a tweet from
Minnesota-based GodsWordIsLaw, a tea party and Bachmann supporter:
“@cheyennejackson A real marriage = 1 man, 1 woman, like its always
been. Stop trying 2 change society to fit ur radical lifestyle
choice.”
Jackson plays Dustin Goolsby, the
musical coach of rival team Vocal Adrenaline, on the Fox
musical-comedy Glee and Danny Baker on the NBC sitcom 30
Rock. He played 9/11 hero Mark Bingham in the 2006 Academy
Award-nominated United 93. In his latest film, The
Green, he plays the partner of a gay teacher accused of
molesting a male student.
