"I would never knowingly say or do anything to hurt the (gay, lesbian, bisexual, transsexual) community -- a community that I have worked hard for and supported my entire career. ... In the Spanish I grew up speaking, the term means simply 'gay,' not positive or negative. It has been brought to my attention that the word also has a hurtful or derogatory connotation, which was never my intent. If I offended anybody, I'm sorry."
