Ellen Degeneres Show-Oh no he didn't!

I just heard a rumor from somewhere that he sang Bambi on Ellen Degeneres! Is this true? What was her reaction? The audience reaction? What kinds of hate did he spew this time about homosexualitY?

I think that was all in good fun. Ellen even danced to it.

I heard today that he's given Wendy a lot of heat about her sexuality. He isn't sounding very LGBT friendly.

I hope it was better than his performance of Kiss which he did with his hands in his pockets.

mmm-hmm. this whole thing has been touched upon back last year when the show first aired and a couple other times afterwards. the consensus seems to be that nobody really thinks much of it...s'just a song, not a declaration of sorts.

Didn't he just sing Kiss? confuse

But if he played Bambi, then that would have been rather fun, wouldn't it? lol

he is only human after all.
Fuck the funk - it's time to ditch the worn-out Vegas horns fills, pick up the geee-tar and finally ROCK THE MUTHA-FUCKER!! He hinted at this on Chaos, now it's time to step up and fully DELIVER!!
woot!

he did play "bambi" and it was taped, but they edited it outta the broadcast (it was like at the tail-end of the show when he went into it).

Gosh! That man has courage. lol

Still, I've never considered it an "anti-lesbian" song. It's just a man voicing his frustrations because the girl he likes would rather be with another girl than with him. Lawd knows, I've voiced similar frustrations about straight men who just wouldn't understand that it really, truly is better with a man. biggrin

"Bambi (Rap)" on the other hand... Man, that T.C. sure is a bigot. stab

Some of us actually attended the taping of the Ellen show and "Bambi" was played during a break between the taping of "Nothing Compares 2 U" and "I Feel 4 U". Then the band segued from "I Feel 4 U" into "Controversy" which you can hear the first beat of as the show ends.

He also played an instrumental version of "Bambi" at the House of Blues in May while Wendy was guesting on guitar. I don't think you can make assumptions about how lesbians feel about the song.

Depends who you ask, really.

I know some who are offended by it and think P.'s a homophobic cunt because of it, and I know others who love it!

Really? So it is not on Nevermind??? I've just spend hours trying to figure out if there is a bonus track "Bambi" hidden somewhere. confused Maybe it is on In Utero? ? ? ! ! !!!???
















lol
I case you still didn't notice, I wasn't serious and yes i knew what you ment by nevermind.
But funny thing is that you didn't know Nirvana had album called Nevermind biggrin
