Bernadette Peters Says She’s ‘So Proud’ to Be a Gay Icon, LGBTQIA+ People Have ‘Beautiful Souls’ (Exclusive)

Bernadette Peters is honored to be a gay icon.

“I’m so proud that — that I am part of that, and that I was picked out, singled out to accomplish that,” Peters, 76, exclusively told Us Weekly last month. “People ask me why I think that happened.”

The Tony Award winner explained that “gay people are extra sensitive and have beautiful souls and beings,” adding, “Because I think they had to, as a young person. You have to really figure out what you’re about. But we all do that.”

“I think it’s a little harder existence gay,” she added. “It’s getting easier, I consider, but sure. It’s been harder. So I consider what I bring to a song connects with them… they recognize that.”

When asked what life lessons she would tell the ‘90s version of herself — a decade she opened with Woody Allen‘s 1990 film Alice andclosed with her second Tony Award for her production as Annie Oakley in the 1999’s Broadway film of Annie Get Your Gun

I hope you just have a really warped sense of humor. If you believe that, then I'll tell you, she's vanishing the show to star in a musical version of "Basic Instinct."

I REALLY don't think this is appropriate to write on the board.

Kevin---I think this should be removed.
