Lisa Lampanelli will donate $1,000 to pro-gay charity for every Westboro member who pickets her show
Lampanelli -- Watch Me Piss Off Evil Westboro Church!!

5/20/2011 6:30 PM PDT by TMZ Staff

Lisa Lampanelli has put the evil Westboro Baptist Church into one hell of a pickle -- they wanna protest her show tonight ... but for every hate-monger who shows up, she's gonna donate $1,000 to a pro-gay charity.

http://www.tmz.com/2011/05/20/lisa-lampanelli-concert-donation-gay-mens-health-crisis-westboro-baptist-church/



Lisa is performing in Topeka, Kansas -- home of the evil church -- and when she got word that members of the church were planning to protest her show -- because she is such an outspoken supporter of gay rights -- Lisa hatched a plan.

She's going to donate $1,000 for every protestor that shows up ... to the Gay Men's Health Crisis -- the nation's oldest HIV/AIDS prevention, treatment and care services provider.

Lisa tells TMZ, "It's gonna be hilarious to write out the checks to the GMHC and have them send thank you notes to the WBC for their 'generous contributions.'"

2. They'll all show up anyway - that's how they get paid
They count on revenue from first amendment lawsuits... family of lawyers. It won't matter a whit to them because they're totally in sincere and inauthentic... they are only saying things that they think will incite attacks on their first amendment rights. Their task is to inflame and collect cash, they don't care one whit if a gay group gets cash as well.

Besides, Fred Phelps is impotent.

4. She's a regular on the Comdey Central roasts.
Stand-up comic of the "shock" variety.

5. I love her.

Not the biggest fan of her comedy. She's ok. But her attitude rocks!
