Perez Hilton Won't Back Down

(AP)  Perez Hilton isn't apologizing for using a gay slur, and says he's never claimed to be a spokesperson for the gay community.

The celebrity blogger said in a statement Tuesday that he will continue to say things upsetting to gay and straight people alike. The comments came after the Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation called for Hilton to apologize for unleashing the word during an altercation with Black Eyed Peas frontman will.i.am.

Hilton said he felt physically threatened and sought the most hurtful thing he could say during the confrontation at a Toronto nightclub early Monday. Police charged the band's tour manager with assault for allegedly punching Hilton.

Hilton said he did what he thought best to stand up for himself.

Funny how Perez can call people a "****-gitt", but this program cuts out the same word when you apply it to him...

He is a totally obnoxious, and ugly ****** (not gay, ******) who has no redeeming character. He makes a living by insulting people that are far more talented and intelligent the he will ever be. He is sleazy enough that he changed his name to cash in on Paris and Baron Hilton, both of which will have nothing to do with him.

He was being his usual obnoxious and confrontational self, pushing people's buttons, trying to get a reaction, and thankfully he got one, when he felt "physically threatened", instead of backing down, he rudely insulted that person with the worst personal insult he could think of. Does anybody not know to not insult people you are threatened by?

He did it, because he feels that he can get away with it, and he knows that if not, then he can file a suit and get a big out of court settlement (which actually might just be the reason for all this).

I personally wish he had really got his ass beat, instead of just a little cut. I want to see him **** off someone like Insane Clown Posse, or Fifty Cent, and go spend a few days in the ICU, where he can reflect on what a worthless, parasitic axxhole he is.

Let's see, he first accused will.I.am., then the body guard and now the manager. You know, maybe he hit himself.

Perez Hilton: Illegal immigrants may be [alledgedly] stealing American jobs, but at least they are more productive to society than this leech.

so sad that he felt the gay slur to be the most hurtful thing to say, it just tells me what he really thinks of himself.

Gay or straight, the guy is an idiot and a waste of human flesh.
