@daniellemoxey9940 when Wayne-Brady goes...Hard! LMAO!!! The real Wayne Brady!

[@waterandshovelgardening]

Wayne Brady is so talented and so funny! His improvisational skills are unmatched. He is also very humble.

[@javiruiz8365]

I’m so happy that after decades he finally came out! Happy for him

@@BillBarr4President Well… you clearly do. You are here, watching the video and commenting. Hope you enjoyed. ✨☺️

[@LordIstar]

@@BillBarr4Presidentimagine being so obnoxiously narcissistic to think that because you don’t care about something no one else does. Go outside, touch grass, and get a grip. In the grand scheme of things your opinion is irrelevant.

[@zayah01]

@@LordIstarOmg you ate

[@BillBarr4President]

@@LordIstar he’s now pansexual….yawn. Sounds like a category he can use to excuse his attraction to little kids.

[@sheldoncole1151]

He is so good looking and speaks so fine 💯

[@BillBarr4President]

Telling a black person that they 'speak so well' is so patronising and passive-racist.

[@zayah01]

@@BillBarr4PresidentI’m sure they didn’t mean it that way

I'm So Glad you came out Wayne Brady. You're an Amazing, Handsome, & Talented Human being!! YOU MATTER!! 💜 Btw, I've been one of your biggest fans since my childhood. I LOVE You Wayne Brady!! 💜

[@lightworks3172]

Now, this is a first! Joy, who typically hates being touched, surprisingly allowed Wayne to kiss her cheek, she felt his bicep and kept offering compliments throughout the interview. He must be really good looking in person. 🤭

[@Iseeyourefake]

Perhaps because he is also a comedian as is she and they know each other.

[@JoseHernandez-yj7zm]

She's down with the swirl

[@kennethdrake7686]

He looks like he smells great!

[@thelaurels13]

They know each other well.

[@joshlmccall6294]

I always thought Wayne was one of the most coolest guys on the planet! He has such a delightful spirit and he's always been funny without trying too hard! Just an awesome man!!! 🫶🏾

Wayne, humor and singing are worth so much for the human condition, my daughter's and I love you and thank you. 💖

I love Wayne Brady ,he is so talented and funny and such a great singer.

[@SleepyArcticBirds-ft4lb]

Wayne Brady👏👏👏❤️❤️❤️He’s so inspirational, what a lovely man

[@cloudwatcher608]

I loved how Wayne said "Thank you, Ms Whoopi" and then got reprimanded immediately after about talking over her and he looked sheepish

[@sekenamcmurren2217]

Wayne Brady is an all around entertainer and cool guy! 😎🎶❤

[@louiscaruso4167]

I appreciate Wayne spilling the tea...❤

[@couchpotato6270]

I try and watch the reruns of Who’s Line Is It Anyway and Mr. Brady is hilarious and an amazing singer.

[@natashapeterson9441]

Wayne is amazing and I love his relationship with his ex-wife aka his best friend. More of that.

[@KCNwokoye]

Wow Wayne is awesome!

[@angelginorio9542]

Love Wayne Brady since his Recurring role in HIMYM and loved him in his time in DWTS. I actually didn't know he was an advocate for mental health

Oh my gosh, Wayne looked exactly like Sonny, when he did that little "Tune in for all the tea..." and sip!

[@ljones827]

I must say Wayne Brady plays a great Wiz! I kinda knew back in the day he was not a straight man. Glad he’s doing his thang

[@tonyrossbackinthedaymusicv3107]

Wayne Brady is GREAT in THE WIZ, What a SUPER Talented Guy.

[@jandreid2023]

Whoopi to Wayne: "Didn't I have that and threw it out?" (a WLIA Questions game).

[@ciel222]

❤️❤️❤️👏 great to see him

[@mele9131]

Joy did the ultimate "old woman feel" with his bicep. Hilarious!

Lets make a deal has been on since 2009?!? Guiding light has been gone since 2009?!? Wow time flies

I remember him from Everybody Hates Chris

[@beatriceowusuachaw6210]

God bless you all

[@lorrie2878]

I loved Who's Line!

[@preacher_chick]

It’s amazing how his career has moved forward even more since he has said he is “pansexual” (I do not believe for a moment he has ever been attracted to men 🤦🏽‍♀️🤷🏽‍♀️)

[@racky2227]

Why would he lie about his sexuality? He says he is free to live openly. So I believe that.

[@williampetrovich1998]

🏆I believe I've worn that t shirt - Whoopi

🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

[@xKarenWalkerx]

Wayne Brady beat the women of the View for outstanding talk show host in 2003! There's a funny clip here on KZbin about it..

[@hunterjr666]

Did he just say what I think he said?

I absolutely love this man, & wish that I could have met him years ago & become his husband then... 💜🌹💯 #WanyeBrady

[@Eyeball_Heroin]

Love Wayne Brady, miss him on Let’s make a deal. I hope his version of the wiz ends up on Fandango in my market, I would love to see it. I would have thought pansexual means you’re up for both sex’s in any nationality. I just asked Siri, what pansexual means and it sounds identical to bisexual. What is the difference Siri told me he couldn’t get that on iPhone. Siri is lazy sometimes , but what is the difference?

[@OneLoveRSR]

Pansexual is not bisexual. Pansexual, simply put, is I like you for you and have the ability to be sexually intimate with you because it's you. Not because of your sexuality or orientation or gender identity or specific body parts.

[@Eyeball_Heroin]

@@OneLoveRSR thank you for taking the time to reply. 🙂

[@wookinooki9023]

Art is subjective how many dresses and pieces of clothing are in stores that people find ugly, it’s wild watching two of the most artistic people at the table try to gatekeep success in the arts lol

[@tobiaswilliamson00]

Wayne Brady now looks like Malcolm X because he'll be in The Wiz and due to the rise of Jordan Fisher.

[@BradSD25]

What is pansexual?

[@hunterjr666]

Pillow biter, bone smuggler

[@sheldoncole1151]

I commented the same thing but it got deleted.

[@JPMJPM]

It’s where sex and gender is not important to you in love. He could fall in love with anyone wherever they fall on the spectrum.

[@arthurwright255]

Made up term.

[@melindamcafee1728]

​@@JPMJPMthank you for that explanation.

[@Handle2point0]

We all knew he was gay. Same with Luther Vandross and so many others. There’s a sense of freedom when you start living in your true skin.

[@kingcobrarules8117]

Do you think Wayne hung out with Diddy?

[@rubberdog8763]

Yikes!! Joy, please stop pawing male guests. If a man did that to a woman, people would be enraged. Please keep your hands off & stop feeling up male guests?

He played ambiguous, gay, and even drag without the consequences that those who are out from the get to do at times. I'm sorry he's riding off the backs of a lot of people and he's just ok

I love the intelligence of these women, especially on political discussion, I do wish Whoopi would be replaced and shut her mouth.
