“I Used To Be Homophobic”: Celebrities Who Changed Their Stance On Gay Rights

Curtis Jackson caused quite the controversy back in 2004 when he said the following in a Playboy interview: “I ain’t into fa**ots. I don’t like gay people around me, because I’m not comfortable with what their thoughts are. I’m not prejudiced. I just don’t go with gay people and kick it — we don’t have that much in common.”
But in 2012, 50 said it was President Obama who helped him have a change of heart: “Obama is for same-sex marriage. If the president is saying that, then who am I to go the other way?”
