The Hallmark Channel sparked outrage after it bowed to pressure from conservative campaign groups and took four ads for wedding planning website Zola that featured a same-sex couple off the air.
Perry said that Hallmark will be working with GLAAD to better represent the LGBTQ community and will be reaching out to Zola in a bid to reinstate the commercials."Across our brand, we will continue to look for ways to be more inclusive and celebrate our differences," Perry added.
"We were deeply troubled when Hallmark rejected our commercials for featuring a lesbian couple celebrating their marriage, and are relieved to see that decision was reversed," Mike Chi, Zola's chief marketing officer, said in a statement to"We are humbled by everyone who showed support not only for Zola, but for all the LGBTQ couples and families who express their love on their wedding day, and every day.
