Wanda Sykes Announces She is Gay

Comedienne, Wanda Sykes, announced she is "proud to be gay." She said the passing of Proposition 8, opposing gay marriage in California, led her to be more outspoken about her sexual preference. She surprised a gay rights rally in Las Vegas with her appearance and announcement.

"I was just living my life, not necessarily in the closet, but I was living my life. Everybody that knows me personally they know I'm gay. But that's the way people should be able to live their lives," Sykes told the rally, adding that Prop 8 made her feel "attacked."
