Neil Patrick Harris, Jack Black, Margaret Cho and more in "Prop 8 - The Musical"

by
Brian Juergens

Courtesy of FunnyOrDie, gay songsmith Marc Shaiman (South Park, Hairspray) and out director Adam Shankman (Hairspray) have created a musical about Proposition 8, Jesus, and how gay marriage could save the country. Seriously. Watch closely and you might notice Maya Rudolph, Andy Richter, Sarah Chalke, Jenifer Lewis, Kathy Najimy, Allison Janney, and more in the number. These people are awesome.

    I just knew the Messiah was on our side.  Start breaking out the loaves and fishes!

    Their hearts were definitely in the right place, and I thank them for their support.  That said, it probably could've been punched up a little, joke wise.

    I thought it was pretty cute.  I adore Maya, Margaret, Jenifer, and a few of the others.  But watching this just reminds me that a Jackie's Back! soundtrack isn't available. :-(

    I am not sure how much of a difference it would have made during the camapign itself -- it might have been treated a a 'attack' on religion and or something like that.  So perhaps it was a pr move.

    It is still very funny, although the video clip does not play too well on older, slower, computers.  Neil Patrick Harris and Jack Black are both wonderful actors as is the guy from Chicago/Walk Hard.  Mostly camoes from alot of the other people and distribution beyond the net, might be difficult.

    Do people really find love at a gay pride parade? Most of the time I find free samples from businesses, sometimes an item worth buying and find the friendly pot-luck folks at PFLAG.   I am not sure if 'love' is what people find at pride parades.... ;0)
