Hot Straight Guy Donates $100k Against Prop 8

Brad Pitt, one of the stars of the current #1 movie in the country, the Coen Brothers' Burn After Reading, has announced that he is donating $100,000 to support the fight to defeat California's anti-gay ballot measure Proposition 8.

Shockingly, Pitt is the first A-list celebrity to publicly donate to the campaign to prevent the elimination of the right to marry for same-sex couples in the state of California.

He said in a statement:

"Because no one has the right to deny another their life even though they disagree with it, because everyone has the right to live the life they so desire if it doesn’t harm another and because discrimination has no place in America, my vote will be for equality and against Proposition 8."

Variety reported that openly gay billionaire David Geffen has donated a mere $50, 000 and openly gay agent Brian Lourd has donated $5,000.
