Victoria Jackson, the anti-gay anti-Glee former SNL castmember we wish would all go away, isn’t. CNN’s Showbiz Tonight sniffed out a scandal, and invited Jackson on their little program to see if she changed her mind about that disgusting smooch between Darren Criss and Chris Colfer.
“Well, it doesn’t matter what I think,” says Jackson of her homophobic remarks. “What matters is what the Bible says. I’m really concerned about our country because immorality is, well, let’s see — secular humanism rules the airwaves, and it’s stealing the innocence away from this whole generation of children. My daughter is a teenager and I can’t find any show that she can watch. … [Calling me homophobic is] a cute little buzzword of the liberal agenda. Basically, the bible says that homosexuality is a sin.”
And that’s officially where this conversation ends. Jackson, who managed to incorporate Muslim beliefs into this conversation, believes her strict interpretation of the Bible, and there’s virtually nothing that can change it. Let her exist inside her small little mind, unless you think Fox is really this desperate for ratings.
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.

I think it’s good she’s being shown on TV.
1. It also allows for the scene from Glee or at least from the kiss screen shot to be prominently displayed.
2. She acts as the face of religious conservatives in the US. (‘Cause let’s be honest – she’s been coached. I seriously doubt she can actually explain what “secular humanism” is.)
3. She shows her own stupidity in almost every – if not every – sentence.
Cam
Oh yes, but her attacking others for being “Anti-Christian” is perfectly fine isn’t it?
This is their game, they want to pretend that they can’t be called anything, but then they want to attack and call everybody else a name.
She was in a movie in the 80’s called “Casual Sex” about these girls going around sleeping with guys…GASP BEFORE MARRIAGE! So I guess morality only upsets God when victoria isn’t getting a paycheck for it.
FreddyMertz
@chicagotist: Amen!..wait..is that “secular humanism”?..lol
JusticeontheRocks
She’s jealous of Colfer. Come to think of it I am too.
Another washed up old cow trying to prolong the 15 minutes of fame she never had in the first place.
And do something about whatever that is in your wig.

I wonder what Jared Loughner thought of the Glee kiss. I’d be interested in hearing his opinion.
gregger
I’m not anti-Christian. I’m anti-asinine bigots who have less social relevance than a three day old bagel, lying in the gutter, after dogs have pee’d on it.
PS, Victoria, you might want to do some of your gymnastic routines again. Anything to get some blood back to that atrophied brain.

Queerty states: “Let her exist inside her small little mind, unless Fox is this desperate for ratings.”
Nice attempt at a jab at Fox, Queerty, but didn’t your article begin with “CNN’s Showbiz Tonight sniffed out a scandal…” ?? So exactly how do you factor Fox News into this equation? Oh, that’s right: They’re racist and homophobic and just plain eeeeevil and therefore deserve to be accused of all wrongdoings in the universe. Got it.
Miss Understood
I’d love to see an in depth interview with her “Gay Friends”.
christopher di spirito
This fat cunt will say anything to get her pig snout on TV.
niles
Let me guess, she was a fag hag who was rejected or dissed by one of her “gay friends”.
christopher di spirito
This heffa was on SNL? Seriously? I have no recollection of her.
She must’ve sucked — and not terribly well.
divkid
first…
check it for a blow hole.
then, harvest for its valuable oil.
Adrian Acosta
This SNL skit ran a bit long for my taste but it still made me laugh. Also, Victoria forgot to say at the end “LIVE FROM NEW YORK, IT’S SATURDAY NIGHT!!!”
She’s not been on TV in a while, she’s just a little rusty, God help her 😉

It’s ok, she’s not been on TV in a while, she’s just a little rusty, God help her 😉
divkid
what brand of gay self-hatred/low self-esteem would you have to subscribe to in order to tolerate this hippo-pig-a-saurus as your “friend”?
kernelt
funny when the majority don’t like something they always use the phrase don’t shove *whatever the issue was down their throat and yet it’s fine for them to shove theirs down our…
It’s something I call oppression and dictation.
P.S. that pig is just trying to get some attention for herself since by her look alone there would be no way she could be famous, for being a pig…
Spike
Seems just a tad jealous of the popular young, attractive, talented dancers, singers and actors on the show, all of which, SHE IS NOT, nor never will be.
Someone needs to call child services in reference to hate filled environment her daughter is being raised in.
Gotta laugh her reference to her having gay friends, must be those closeted republicans that keep getting caught tapping their shoes in airport bathrooms.
MoMan
@christopher di spirito: Your lefty tolerance is so heart-warming, it makes me want to be like you and start name-calling those with whom I disagree politically. First up: Michael Moore. No, I guess he’s too perfect a physical specimen to judge. James Carville? No, too pretty. How about . . . what’s the name of that guy on MSNBC . . . oh yeah, Rachel Maddow! But he kind of looks like a girl. Dammit, why do all liberals have to be so beautiful?!?
Chris
Isn’t this bitch divorced? Something that’s punishable by death according to the bible?
Sagittarius
I thought most fag hags were fat. So why all the fat hate on this blog? Hate is hate. Hypocritical assholes, all of ya.
Sceth
It is not acceptable that people are taking advantage of this mentally challenged woman’s “opinions.”
Mangina
I’m confused by her responses. She sounds incoherent and uneducated and spouting Biblical verses that she is either making up or reading off a cue card. The whole God hate Muslims and gay remark floored me that she is trying to connect the two variables with her own spin in her explanations. Sad that she has to resort to this type of controversy to revitalize her failing career.
Ed
Who’s up for a same-sex kiss-in at Victoria’s next show?
christopher di spirito
@MoMan: MoMan, your premise is faulty. You assume I care what you say or think. Nothing can be further from reality.
BlindedNYC
i think i would like to hear from ms jackson’s gay friends she mentions on this issue.
Cam
She’s INCREDIBLY relevent! glad they are interviewing somebody so “Now”!
Who will they be interviewing tomorrow? The girl who played “Viki” on “The Love Boat”?
christopher di spirito
@Cam: FOFLMAO! Love it!
Konrad
“Stealing the innocence away from a whole generation” huh? Going on her goo-goo wittle gwil lost voice, sounds like a cross between a grown-up Jon Bonet, and Marilyn Monroe.
Why does someone who’s working a tired do-wop rag (does the circa 1982 fashion reflect her circa 1982 beliefs??), and looks like Charlotte Haze, the floozy mama in Lolita, even CARE about gay boys kissing? Jealous, much?
Instead of validating V.J’s (a.k.a., vay -jay, a has-been with a gaping … mouth) “beliefes,” the question I really wish someone would ask is:
V.J., ARE YOU PLANNING A COMEBACK? Coz the “controversy” reeks of opportunism, specifically that of an pre-menopausal “lady” who’s kid (sorry, “daughter” who’s gone ape shit crazy watching Mulan & The Little Princess on V.J.’s VCR) is about to leave, and go to college. mmm. Dye the hair purple and V.J. could stand-in for Jan Crouch (the lady with the gianormous beehive who cries on cue) [img]http://www.elec-intro.com/tbn-jan-crouch[/img]

In case anyone hasn’t noticed, Victoria Jackson is mentally ill and has been for some time. People who have worked with her in the past have said she’s off her rocker now. She’s also irrelevant. By what scale is someone who was on SNL for a couple of seasons 20 years ago still a “celebrity”? That’s not even D-list. I’m not sure the alphabet is long enough to cover that low level of “fame.”
And yes, it’s mentally ill to base your entire life and thinking around a book written thousands of years ago by nomads who couldn’t find their way out of a fucking desert. Religion CAN be a positive influence in people’s lives, but too many people take it to a bad place, expecting to answer all their fears and questions so they don’t have to think. They deny all evidence to the contrary and instead insist that a group of people who had an average life-span of 30-40 years because they had no concept of hygiene, medicine, or sanitation at the same times possessed the answers to all of life’s great questions? That’s not religion, it’s willful stupidity.
Jeffree
@greenmanTN: What are you talking about: Victoria has a clear grasp of Bah-bell teachings: all that helpful info on sanitation: it tells you to where & how to crap. It advises to avoid sex with menstruating women & shellfish & people in place called Sadaam because they got a dis-ease call Gommorhea or something like that. Beating your child is acceptable if they watch non-Jésus based
tellyvision.
I cannot wait for Miss Jackson to explain “secular humanism”
jackpacer
Is Victoria drunk? Has she had a stoke?
kueerduck
omg a talking yeast infection
sam
this isn’t a “raging debatE”
this is this one ridiculous woman.
not even fox was pissed off at it
Jeffree
Wait–There’s more! MissJackson now has her own weekly column over at WorldNet Dailt, a.k.a. nutbag central. She’s in good company: Chuck Norris & Pat Boone write there too.
She high?
Geoff B
Ok, Victoria, you don’t want to be called homophobic? How about “bitch”? Is bitch better?
Ghostality
@Sagittarius: I think the reason her weight was addressed is the fact she so vehemently ditched gay people by saying the show should focus on STD training due to oral sex. All of this because two human beings kissed one another. This seems to be what floated around in her mind. When I saw her, I thought of Jenny Craig and Weight Watchers to be honest. I was fat earlier in life and was ridiculed for it. I was/am gay and was ridiculed for that as well. So, I know how both bully tactics feel when directed toward a person. Neither is good. But she brought it on herself. Oh and by the way, gluttony is a sin.
Queer Supremacist
At first I thought that was a picture of Kathy Bates.

I have never watched Glee, however, I am wondering why there was shock at a pro-gay or pro-equality agenda when a big part of the show is big musical numbers and tributes to gay icons.
Daniel M
@Sagittarius: Most of the people posting don’t have enough imagination to come up with anything but fat jokes. Here these posters are complaining about discrimination and then turn around and try to discount her thoughts based on the way she looks and not on the fact that she is using the Bible as a cover for her homophobia and the fact that all of these Bible thumpers pick and choose which parts of the Bible to “prove” their point while ignoring any portion that promotes non-judgment or equality.
redball
If she said “um” one more time, I was going to have to kill myself. What a dummy! Both in presentation and in content. FAIL.
THIS WOMAN IS A MOTHER???!!!
Sweet Jesus Lordy.
