DANNII MINOGUE CAUGHT IN A GAY STORM AFTER FAILED JOKE ...

So last night President Obama gave his Big Gay speech, renewed his vow to allow gay men and lesbians to serve openly in the military, but did not offer any timeline for doing so. “I will end ‘don’t ask, don’t tell. That is my commitment to you". The same president who does not support gay marriage — as a matter of Christian principle he has said. Today's demonstration in Washington DC is intended to pressure Obama to make good on his campaign promises.

Because of the lack of rights, the subject of sexuality remains very sensitive, as an example, last night's X-Factor performance in the UK. Dannii Minogue made a joke about the lyrics of Danyl's song referencing a recent newspaper interview he has given about his sexuality.

Danyl Johnson altered the lyrics of Whitney Houston's 'And I Am Telling You' so that he was singing about a woman, rather than a man.

During the live show, Minogue said: "If you're to believe everything you read in the papers, then you didn't need to change the gender references in the song. It was meant to be a humorous moment about the fact he had an opportunity to have fun with his song. An openly bi-sexual guy singing a song that is lyrically a 'girls' song'. Danyl and I were joking about the very same thing in rehearsals on Friday, so it carried on to the show. I'd like to apologise to anyone that was offended by my comments, it was never my intention."

She spoke to Danyl straight after the show, explained what she was talking about and he wasn't offended.

In fact if you listen carefully to the song you can hear someone shouting 'He's gay!' I am pretty sure he was able to hear many more insults while he was on stage, which is probably why he ended up being so emotional. Not over Dannii's comment. I do not believe a single second that she would intentionally hurt him. You can totally see on her face that the moment she was saying those words she knew things were not going as planned.

Since this morning she had to apologize and justify herself on her twitter page [never start one by the way, Twitter is an open door to people's mediocrity and stupidity into your own life and who wants that!?] She wrote:

"I'm happy to apologise on camera. No problem - Yes it was supposed to in celebration of Danyl being who he is. I'm sorry if anyone was offended. He sang a great finale song - I adore Danyl and meant no offense. I'm sorry if I have caused any harm. I spoke with Danyl afterwards and he said he was not in tears over my comment at all - as he was singing a girls song, and has made very honest and open statements about who he is, I thought he could have had fun with it, a celebration of what makes him so special -nite nite peeps. Thanks for your tweets. There was nothing bad aimed at Danyl - he got the joke from the article he did prior to the live show. More fun tomorrow, promise ..."

I think the fact that Simon Cowel told Dannii that 'she can forget playing any of those games' just made the all thing sound worst for her. What the performance and the 'controversial' comment below. Listen more to the stupid audience screaming insults before and after the song. Those are the one who should apologize not Dannii.
