Comedian Magda Szubanski has used Valentine’s Day to come out and show her support for legalising gay marriage.
The Kath and Kim star, who recently lost 25 kilos and dropped five dress sizes as the face of Jenny Craig, said that all Australians should have the same rights as heterosexual couples, including “the right to love, marry and take care of our partners”.
“I am 1000 percent in favour of gay marriage,” she told the Daily Telegraph.
“We pay taxes, fight wars for this country, nurse you when you are sick, make you laugh, sing and dance for you, play netball for you, star in your movies, cook your meals, decorate your store windows.”
Szubanski decided to make these comments one day after two private members’ bills on legalising gay marriage were introduced into the House of Representatives.
