| Description | New York, NY--Today at 7:00 pm, Lisa Lampanelli, known as "Comedy's Lovable Queen of Mean," will be performing her comedy showcase at the Topeka Performing Arts Center in Topeka, Kansas. Members of Topeka's Westboro Baptist Church, headed by Fred Phelps and known for its extreme anti-gay views, are planning to protest Lampanelli's show because of her steadfast support of the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender community. In response to the protest, Ms. Lampanelli intends to donate $1,000 to Gay Men's Health Crisis (GMHC), the nation's oldest HIV/AIDS prevention, treatment and care services provider, for each protestor who shows up. |
