Kathie Lee Gifford wants the LGBTQ community to stop with their labels. 

Known as one of Hollywood’s most outspoken Christians, the former “Live! with Regis and Kathie Lee” co-host has never shied away from sharing her beliefs.

In a recent interview, the conversation turned to her views on queer identity. While emphasizing that she loves everyone, Gifford voiced her frustration with the growing list of identifiers.

Kathie Lee Gifford Takes Jab At The Gay Community Titles 

During the March 10 episode of the “Tomi Lahren Is Fearless” podcast, Gifford joined host Tomi Lahren, and their discussion soon steered toward homosexuality. 

Lahren referenced a past interview in which Shia LaBeouf was asked whether the Bible condemns homosexuality.

Gifford, however, told Lahren that the scriptures have something to say about it, urging her to check it out for herself. 

When Lahren asked the ex-talk show host how one can reconcile being a strong Christian and still support gay rights, Gifford replied that the answer was simple.  “That one is a four-letter word, and it’s called L-O-V-E, love,” she told Lahren.

Gifford added that many of her friends are gay and expressed concern about how queer people identify themselves. 

“I don’t even know how many letters there are now. They’ve really got to stop with that. We know what you mean, you know?” Gifford said. 

Despite her criticism, Gifford stressed that she does not judge anyone and believes love should come first.

“I’m not telling anybody how to live their life,” she declared. “I never have. I just know what Jesus said: Love your neighbor as you love yourself. Love God first.”

Kathie Lee Gifford Slammed Religion As Restrictive

Despite being a devout Christian and outspoken on her faith, Gifford has some controversial views on religion. 

The 72-year-old TV personality stressed that faith should be lived as a constant communication with God and has nothing to do with religion. 

“It’s not a religion. I am very anti-religion,” Gifford shared, according to The Blast. “Religion puts people in chains, and Jesus takes them away.”

She went further to reject the idea of separating her career from her spiritual mission, saying it’s all one life which she lives in line with God’s blessings and guidance. 

Kathie Lee Gifford Turns To The Scripture For Guidance 

Kathie continued with sharing her guide, especially when it comes to navigating difficult decisions or moments of anxiety.

According to her, the teachings of the Bible are her compass, providing clarity in situations where uncertainty might otherwise take over.

“Scripture says don’t, don’t worry about anything. Don’t worry about anything. I am with you. I will lead you. I will guide you every day of your life,” she said. 

As such, when people ask how she can be bold in speaking about God, especially in Hollywood, she said she does not care what people think. 

Kathie Lee Gifford Shared How Donald Trump Saved Her Family 

While speaking on her spiritual beliefs, the media personality has also shared personal experiences. One such encounter was a frightening encounter with a stalker that Donald Trump stepped in to save her. 

As The Blast previously reported, Gifford recalled traveling to Atlantic City with her daughter when her late husband, Frank Gifford, received a disturbing call from the FBI. Authorities had warned that a “psychopathic” murderer and rapist had vowed to target her. 

The FBI advised Frank not to change their plans, fearing the suspect would catch on. However, Frank, wanting Kathie to be safe, reached out to Trump. 

Trump quickly stepped in, arranging for his private helicopter to transport Kathie Lee, her baby, and their nanny safely while also assigning a team of his personal security guards to protect her.

How Kathie Lee Gifford Experienced a Miracle Health Recovery 

Another personal experience Kathie revealed was a miracle that happened after a dangerous fall from the stairs in her Tennessee home. According to The Blast, Gifford explained that she had been rushing down the stairs in the heat to let a friend in when her shoes caused her to tumble. 

Surprisingly, she felt no pain afterward and had already stopped taking painkillers. However, she was concerned and called her doctor, who ordered an X-ray. 

The results stunned them both as her injuries had completely healed. “You are cured… You are healed. It is a miracle,” her doctor told her, even joking that she could now enjoy a glass of wine again. Gifford added that medical experts rarely see such miraculous recoveries.
