The Reverend Thomas Crouse still plans to hold his "Mr. Heterosexual Massachusetts" contest in February--he just won't be doing it at the Sturbridge Host Hotel and Conference Center in the town of Worcester, the local newspaper reported Monday. "They told me it was breach of contract because [the facility] was rented to the Holland Congregation Church and I am holding the event," Crouse told the Worcester Telegram & Gazette . He is blaming local gay rights groups for the cancellation but says the show will go on with the help of God. Officials at the hotel had no comment. Gay activists have criticized the show because it will feature a speaker who claims he was "turned" from gay to straight because "he was freed through the blood of Jesus Christ," Crouse told the newspaper. He is calling the contest a "fun event." (Advocate.com)
