Gospel singer Kim Burrell has been facing some serious backlash after
delivering a sermon that refers to the "perverted homosexual spirit".
A video surface online of the singer delivering what has since been
labelled a "homophobic" speech which has caused her to being dropped
from The Ellen Degeneres Show. In the video, Kim, who is a pastor at
Love and Liberty Fellowship Church in Houston, Texas, said:
"That perverted homosexual spirit is a spirit of delusion and confusion
and has deceived many men and women, and it has caused a strain on the

Pharrell Williams and Janelle Monáe, but Ellen took to Twitter announce
that Kim would no longer be making an appearance.
