OK, so it warmed my heart in an odd way to hear that Melissa Etheridge sang the national anthem at the NASCAR race over the weekend in Fontana, Calif. One doesn't necessarily thnk of NASCAR as a super gay-friendly thing. But I can dream, can't I?
Said California Speedway President Gillian Zucker:
"As an outspoken advocate for the environment, human rights, and cancer survivors, Melissa Etheridge is more than just a wonderfully talented musician. We can't wait to introduce this Grammy and Academy Award winner to NASCAR at California Speedway."
How long until having a lesbian sing the national anthem at NASCAR no longer seems like a subversive act?
