At a show in Nashville at The Ryman Auditorium, Tracy Morgan let loose a repulsive anti-gay rant according to at least one show attendee.

In a Facebook post titled “Why I No Longer ‘Like’ Tracy Morgan — A Must Read,” Kevin Rogers wrote that he was fan of the 30 Rock star until he sat through this show from the comedian.

Rogers alleges that Morgan claims being gay is a choice and

“God don’t make no mistakes” and that lesbians are “just pretending.”

According to Rogers, the actor dismissed bullying by saying:

“…the gays needed to quit being p***ies and not be whining about something as insignificant as bullying.”

Among the disturbing things Morgan is alleged to have said is that he would kill his own son, if he found out he was gay.

“He said if his son that was gay he better come home and talk to him like a man and not [he mimicked a gay, high pitched voice] or he would pull out a knife and stab that little N (one word I refuse to use) to death,” Rogers wrote.

The Ryman Auditorium issued a statement apologizing for the offensive Morgan.

“The Ryman Auditorium regrets that people were offended by statements made by Tracy Morgan during his June 3 appearance.  The Ryman does not control the content presented by people appearing on its stage, nor does it endorse any of the views of, or statements made by, such persons.”

Morgan has landed in hot water before with his comments, including saying that Sarah Palin is “good masturbation material” on TNT and at a show in New York two years ago, he told the audience being gay was a “choice.”

Morgan’s rep said “There is no comment. Thank you.”

Tracy Morgan has successfully undergone a kidney transplant at the beginning of December but the 30 Rock star is still mending.

The surgery took place around December 10th and while the actor has already been seen at a Knicks game this week, he will miss a few episodes of filming that are scheduled to air in March. A representative for the comedian said:

“Tracy is doing well and taking some much needed time to recover after the surgery. He is looking forward to going back to work after the holidays.”

It is thought that Tina Fey and the writers will address the issue by having Morgan’s character Tracy Jordan, have a meltdown.

Here’s the first trailer for Kevin Smith‘s new film. It was originally called A Couple of Dicks but is now (quite fittingly) called Cop Out. It stars Bruce Willis and Tracy Morgan.

This looks funny, but it’s certainly no Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back. I think the years of awesome Kevin Smith films is long gone. Although that fact is sad, I’ll still watch this.

Famous for being dirty comedian, Tracy Morgan for some odd reason did a show at Carnegie Hall in New York City on Friday night.  The crowd of Morgan ‘fans’ were none too pleased with his dirty humor and kept leaving throughout the show.

Tracy Morgan doesn’t hide any of his ‘ways’ either.  The man is very up front,

“You want the clean Tracy? Turn on the TV,” he told them.

One audience member said people were “shocked and appalled with what was coming out of his mouth,” including trash-talking about homosexuality (it’s “a choice”), drugs, sex acts and pornography. One joke merged politics and the ever-growing catalog of celebrity sex tapes going around.

“Obama is really changing the White House, because he and Michelle will have the first presidential sex tape out,” he said.

Well, I am not sure what those people were thinking going to a Tracy Morgan show and expecting good, clean humor.  But, I am guessing they will look into the performers rather than just the venue in the future.

A comedy about two cops whose adventures include locating a stolen baseball card, rescuing a woman, and dealing with gangsters and their laundered money

Sounds like a funny one, Kevin Smith is a great comedy director. Not to mention these actors, I’m sure it’ll be a solid movie.
