After her performance on The Late Show With David Letterman on Tuesday, comedienne Lisa Lampinelli told Letterman about a Twitter post that cost her upwards of $44,000.
Earlier this year, the Westboro Baptist Church had threatened to protest one of her shows in Topeka, Kansas. Lampinelli, who is known to support certain gay groups, caught wind of this. She posted on Twitter that for every protester who showed up to that particular show, she would donate $1,000 to a gay charity group.
Forty-Four people showed up to the protest, and Lampinelli donated $44,000 to the Gay Men’s Health Crisis, according to the Web site TMZ.com.
Lampanelli said that while this was a lot of money, the whole event distracted people from calling her “fat” on Twitter.
Lampanelli fans who missed Tuesday’s appearance on Letterman will be able to see a lot more of this wise-crackin’ comedienne on television.
Today, Donald Trump just named her as a contestant on “Celebrity Apprentice”. “Celebrity Apprentice” will debut February 12 on NBC.
All this paying out for protesters, and trying not to get fired by “The Donald on “The Apprentice”, won’t slow down the racy Lampinelli, who will be back on the road soon, with her scheduled tours. See a full list of Lisa Lampanelli tour dates.
