Ugliest rat found in NYC subway
SEATTLE, Nov. 20 (UPI) -- The new head of the Lifelong AIDS Alliance in Seattle is looking for a new hostess for Gay Bingo after firing Glamazonia over speech issues.
Glamazonia, the name used professionally by Thom Hubert, had been serving as mistress of ceremonies for seven years and raising $12,000 a month, The Seattle Times reported.
Hubert says he agreed to take anti-harassment training and was open to discussing the language he used at Gay Bingo.
"I never claimed that I couldn't or wouldn't work under those conditions," he said. "I just needed their help in interpreting them."
A spokeswoman for the group said Hubert never got in touch with human resources to arrange training. But that means the group needs to find someone to fill Glamazonia's large-size high heels.
"I think we can still have a gay, sassy Gay Bingo without having to go to those depths," Richart said.
