Is he?? Most of my dislike was based on reports I had heard about him being very homophobic, actually. I’d love to have been misinformed about that. He’s still kind of obnoxious, but without that, I don’t really care how he styles himself.
ETA: A quick Google search revealed both the comments I was originally reacting to and current attitudes: http://www.afterellen.com/tv/417129-guy-fieri-speaks-late-gay-sister-marrying-sex-couples-florida
Seems Fieri’s much-loved sister was gay and he recently officiated at a mass gay wedding. The comments I had heard about may have been a) taken out of context or b) regretted.
Okay, Guy! You get a pass. Your catchphrases still annoy me, but I can live with that. :-)
Thank you to the reader who brought this to my attention!
