Given that she’s the toast of Broadway, we kind of suspected Porgy and Bess Tony winner Audra McDonald was an ally to the LGBT community. But in this chat with BET’s Clay Cane, she really lays out the importance of marriage equality, especially in the African-American community.
Of course, we would swoon just listening to Audra read from the telephone book. Do they still make telephone books?
