NEW YORK — Two public figures faced the wrath of fans last week after issuing anti-gay tweets.

Saying she was taken out of context, “American Idol” Fantasia backtracked after posting an anti-gay caption to photo sharing network Instagram reading, “… Its a lot that going on that the Bible speaks about we should Not be doing. Weed legal in some places, Gay Marriage Legal BUT YET IM JUDGED!!!”

Meanwhile on Twitter, users jumped into a heated exchange between New York rapper Azealia Banks and gossip blogger Perez Hilton in which Banks defended her use of the word “faggot.”

    Never heard of this tramp so Perez should just let her rot in her total obscurity.
