During a sermon at a church in Houston, Texas, Kim Burrell referred to “the perverted homosexual spirit”.

The gospel singer had been due to sing with Pharrell Williams on The Ellen DeGeneres Show later this week.

However, Ellen, who is a well-known advocate of gay rights, tweeted: “For those asking, Kim Burrell will not be appearing on my show.”

The show host had been asked by fans to cancel Kim Burrell’s planned appearance and an online petition was launched.

In a video published after the sermon, Kim Burrell said she made “no excuses or apologies” for her comments.

She added: “I love you and God loves you but God hates the sin in you and me.

“I never said all gays were going to hell. I never said <<LGBT>>… I said <<SIN>>.

“To every person who is dealing with the homosexual spirit, that has it, I love you and God loves you but God hates the sin in you and me. Anything that is against the nature of God.”

Kim Burrell added “enemies” had posted only a portion of her original speech.

Pharrell Williams and Kim Burrell had been due to sing their track I See Victory from the soundtrack of the movie Hidden Figures on the Ellen DeGeneres Show on January 5.

Drake was in a candid, if slightly embarrassed, mood on Friday’s episode of The Ellen DeGeneres Show as the comedienne asked him a series of questions about his love life.

Ellen DeGeneres, 55, appeared to surprise Drake, 26, as she explained to him her method of questioning: “I’m going to show you some pictures and you can say, dated her, dating her now, I’ve kissed her once… you just held her hand.”

The host then pulled onto the screen an image of Rihanna: “The first one is..That’s Rihanna.”

Drake was clearly taken by surprise as he blurted out: “Oh, it’s my turn now to talk…Yeah great girl. We had our moment. [I will] always support and have love for her and yeah.”

Ellen DeGeneres resumed the interrogation pulling up a picture of high velocity rapper Nicki Minaj.

Drake responded, a little more at ease: “Me and Nicki are like family. I just love Nicki with all my heart. We’ve haven’t really shared like intimate moments.”

Ellen DeGeneres quickly moved on: “Not an intimate moment. Okay, here is the next one: Tyra Banks.”

Drake curtly responded: “I went on a date.”

Ellen’s interest clearly piqued dug further: “Did you date her?”

Drake reticently explained: “I went on a date with her one time, yeah.

“Just one date. We went to Disney Land in disguise actually, which was fun. I don’t know if it was a date. It was a get together. We’re close as well.”

The rapper then added with obvious chagrin: “This is really bad. How did you not tell me about this!”

Ellen DeGeneres moved the conversation forward: “Kim Kardashian, did you ever date her?”

At this point Drake could not disguise his true feelings as he exclaimed: “Oh no, no. Come on! What’s going on here?”

Drake’s visceral and animated response to the question got the studio audience roaring with laughter as he clearly did not welcome the idea of dating the reality star.

But Ellen had one more girl from the past to interrogate him on: “All right, let’s do one more. Kat Dennings. Did you date Kat.”

Drake, having cooled after Kim Kardashian scare, replied: “I just always had a huge crush on Kat Dennings and she was kind enough one night to oblige me and we went out for dinner. They don’t call me back after one date according to this.”

When asked if he were dating anyone at the moment, Drake said: “I’m not. I’m single. I’m ready to mingle. The album’s done. I got free time. But not really, I’m going on tour, but I have a couple months after that.”

Meanwhile, Drake recently split a $20,000 donation to Anna Angel, a 30-year-old Ohio woman who lost her five children and boyfriend in a tragic mobile home fire, for her funeral expenses.

Drake’s latest album Nothing Was the Same is set to be released on September 24.

“And I have a fifth on my leg.”

Drew Barrymore revealed on The Ellen DeGeneres Show how she chose her daughter’s name when she was the “size of an olive”.

Drew Barrymore, 37, and her husband Will Kopelman welcomed their daughter Olive into the world 10 weeks ago and the actress has revealed she was inspired to pick the moniker when she was in the early stage of her pregnancy.

Speaking on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, Drew Barrymore said: “I never would have guessed that would have been the name.

“But I was reading a book with my husband. I was three months pregnant and they said your baby is the size of an olive, and that was it. We never looked back.”

Ellen DeGeneres then joked: “It could have been the size of a peanut or a grapefruit.”

Drew Barrymore replied: “It could have been. It was a lot fruit and vegetables.”

The actress did consider a number of names, but as soon as they thought of Olive, they didn’t deliberate anything else.

Drew Barrymore explained: “We were shopping a few [names] as all people do who are so blessed to get to do this. And then once the light was shed, there was just no turning back.”

If President Barack Obama will be out of a job in 48 hours, First Lady Michelle Obama could step into a new career as a chat show host.

TV executives believe Michelle Obama would be a natural to become a talk show host.

Michelle Obama has even been compared to Oprah Winfrey, the queen of chat show hosts and one of the most recognizable names in show business.

“Personally I would like to see her in the White House,” said Hilary Estey McLoughlin., president of syndication company behind the Ellen DeGeneres show.

“But if she were not going to be in the White House, I’d love to see her as the host of a show. She’s amazing.”

And former CNN president Jon Klein agreed that Michelle Obama would be snapped up by TV chiefs if her husband does not win a second term in office.

“Daytime syndicators are desperate for a new voice and she is tailor made for it,” he told TV Guide magazine.

“She’s thoughtful. She’s committed. She’s a working mom. She’d be a strong voice on issues important to her.”

Since moving into the White House Michelle Obama has been one of the most visible of First Ladies with more TV appearances than any other.

Michelle Obama has regularly appeared on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno and The Ellen DeGeneres Show.

Even The View has been graced by Michelle Obama while her appearance on the Dr. Oz show helped her promote her campaign for healthy eating.

Michelle Obama became the first president’s wife to appear on a reality show when she took part in the Iron Chef series with ingredients from the White House garden being used in food preparation.

Hilary Estey McLoughlin, whose Telepictures Productions syndicates the Ellen DeGeneres show, even talks about Michelle Obama as someone to take over Oprah Winfrey’s crown as chat show queen.

“She reminds me of Oprah Winfrey as someone who has the ability to make people understand complex things in a simple way.”

Liam Neeson was more than happy show off his body to raise cash for cancer research.

The Northern Irish actor stripped down to just his briefs and get soaked for the good cause on the Ellen DeGeneres show yesterday.

Liam Neeson was given the option of boxers or briefs by the chat show host when he appeared on the hit daytime TV show.

And he had no hesitation in going for the more daring number, no doubt because he was attracted to the garment’s more vivid shade of pink.

Ellen DeGeneres told him: “You are setting the bar high. Whoever follows you.”

An audience member was duly pulled on stage to throw balls at a target while he would sit in his dressing gown in the gunk tank, with $10,000 going to cancer research if she was successful.

But Liam Neeson had no hesitation in raising the stakes, saying: “If I take this off does the 10 thousand become 20 thousand?”

Ellen DeGeneres replied: “I’ll make that happen if you take that off and go sit in that chair.”

But when the 60-year-old jokingly tried to squeeze out more cash by asking how much it would earn if he took off the briefs too, Ellen DeGeneres insisted he keep them on.

She said: “We get fined if you take those off. I mean, some people might enjoy it, but…”

When his time finally came, a mixture of cheers and guffaws came as he showed off his physique.

And the amusing visual illusion created when he sat down on the chair was not missed by Ellen DeGeneres.

She said: “Oh my god, if someone’s just tuning in you look naked in there.”

Within a few seconds the target had been hit, with the greedy show host making the vital winning throw, and Liam Neeson was duly drenchy.
