Celebrity-Studded Musical About Prop. 8 Solves Gay Marriage Debate
 
 

Appearing today on Will Ferrell's "Funny or Die" site and starring Jack Black, John C. Reilley, Neil Patrick Harris, Allison Janey, Margaret Cho and our favorite Fubar bartender J.B Singh, "Prop. 8: The Musical" is written by Hairspray composer Marc Shaiman, who admits in the credits that he conceived this piece "six weeks later than he shoulda".

It's got Jesus, patriotism and jean shorts. What more do you want? I mean, besides the right to legally marry, that is.

It was written by Marc Shaiman. And I also spotted Kathy Najimy of Sister Act-Fame and Andy Richter among the singers.

Won't it be wonderful when our grandkids come to us in 2052 and say, YOU LIVED when Uncle Jim and Ken weren't allowed to be married? Just like we did to our elders about all of the outlandish things our society has "outlawed" throughout history. It's a matter of time.

Like the producers of MILK, they probably weren't aware of Proposition 8 either.

Living under a rock, in a dark cave, on the other side of the world has it's disadvantages, you know?
