Tracy Morgan Meets with Gay Teens in NYC
Tracy Morgan has kept his word.
The comedian, who came under heavy fire for going off on the gay lifestyle during a set in Nashville this month, apologized last week and made plans to meet with teens who had suffered due to their sexuality.
He did just that yesterday.
During a meeting organized by GLAAD, Morgan spoke with Jayden Love and Raciel Castillo, gay teens who were forced to live on the streets after getting the boot from their families.
"We really appreciate that we were able to meet with Tracy Morgan," the teenagers said. "We hope that our stories have the power to change not only Tracy's perspective, but those of any parent who may be struggling with accepting their child."
Up next, the 30 Rock star will head back to Nashville, apologize to the folks he offended there and meet with the Tennessee Equality Project.

Omg who care... I don't think he should have said sorry to anyone... comedians make jokes. That's what they do.. If you don't like what he says don't listen to him. Now adays ppl have to apologize for everything its just ridiculous!!!

Yes I agree, Morgan is just doing this to save his job. I for one will no longer watch 30 Rock as long as Morgan is on the show. Those gay teens should've spit in his face.

I wish I could get an apology from everyone who has insulted me over the years. When did people get to be such cry babies! No matter what, not everyone thinks the same and if you don't like it don't listen. There are much bigger problems in the world besides this GET A BACKBONE

I don't care if weak minded people commit suicide because it's their choice and nobody made them do it and some people do need to grow a spine.if you can take it in the rear you should be able to take it in the ears.But I will say this,no gay person should ever meet with this baboon unless he is getting fired,because he meant what he said and nobody especially a gay kid should be there to save this monkey's career.

I also dont believe Mr Morgan to be sincere. Its all done to minimize damage & protect his career. 'Kramer's' people didnt do damage control & he didnt apologize. He just kept doing his comedy show. I truly dont believe Mr Morgan should lose his job over this...even though his so called act was highly offensive.

so a black person says a homophobic remarks about killing gays and we just accept it but if a white person says something negative against blacks, his career is ruined for life? nah, the double standard doesn't work for me. fire his ass, and send a message to the black community that they will be held to the same standard as everyone else. don lemon (a black and gay cnn coorespondent) said hating gays is the norm in the black community. tracy is only apologizing because he knows this could affect his career. i am not convinced the hateful comments he made are not exactly how he truly feels.

Nope. Not buying it. Go harass some other kids and leave our gay teens alone. You are not sorry even for 1 minute. Sorry don't believe your apology.
