PHILIP ANSELMO ” I kissed Doug Pinnick from KING’S X, a gay, black man, on the lips And then he said, ‘Man, you taste good,

During an appearance earlier today on Eddie Trunk‘s SiriusXM show “Trunk Nation” PHILIP ANSELMO  talks about kissing Doug Pinnick from KING’S X

“These so-called peers — those are your words — who gave me backlash need to take a good, cold stare in the mirror themselves. And anyone else who throws that word ‘racism’ or ‘racist’ around so freely, they need to understand the implications of said word. That’s a heavy-duty implication when you don’t know jack shit about me except for what you’ve seen on what? In live performances, music videos, interviews… whatever. And taken out of this whole thing is my dark sense of humor, which at the time, I was half angry, half joking, because, funny enough, just before the gig started, Doug Pinnick from KING’S X, a gay, black man, came to say hello to me. I kissed him on the lips because I’m comfortable as hell with my sexuality, and I don’t care what people think about me sexually. And then he said, ‘Man, you taste good,’ and it was the white wine. I said, ‘It must be that white power, hahaha.’ Yes, so that was a joke there. And then some of my musical peers — your words — took that, and, by the way, the main culprit  wasn’t even privy to the room [in the backstage area] that I was in.”
