Cho Marries The Gays

chom2.jpg
Margaret Cho’s homo stock just went up – if that’s even possible. Joining the ranks of Kathy Griffin, the comedienne has been bestowed with the power to officiate marriages. And, of course, she’s going for the gays:

[Cho]was recently deputized by the city of San Francisco to perform gay marriages there.

Cho actually married two couples during the Bay Area’s gay pride festivities, she announced last night at the opening of the Outfest film festival in downtown Los Angeles.

“It’s a very empowering thing to be able to preside over these ceremonies,” she tells me. “We’ve been working on this for such a long time.”

I’m very happy to preside over all the ceremonies that I can,” says Cho, whose new VH1 series, The Cho Show, debuts next month. “I’m going to make sure I have the right certification to do it.”

Since it’s Friday and sort of topical, we’ve included a bit of Cho’s same-sex nuptial-related stand-up after the jump.

Just had the privilege of seeing her perform in Vancouver. She was
absolutely fabulous! She rocked the house and everyone loved her.
She made me proud of being an American.

My partner of 5 years and I have never wanted to be married, but the fun of being married by Margaret could change a guy’s mind.

smooches to Margaret!

Margaret was deputized to perform “gay marriages”? I would imagine she’s allowed to perform straight marriages, too. But it’s even better if her deputization (is that the word?) came with a stipulation that she only preside over gay matrimony.
