Good for you, Wanda Sykes!

The funnywoman and co-star of The New Adventures of Old Christine officially came out of the closet yesterday.

Sykes also announced she married her girlfriend on Oct. 25, just days before the passage of Proposition 8, which has banned gay marriage in California.

We wonder who her girlfriend is.

“You know, I don’t really talk about my sexual orientation. I didn’t feel like I had to. I was just living my life, not necessarily in the closet, but I was living my life,” said Sykes, 44, while speaking at a Las Vegas rally for gay marriage.

“I got pissed off,” she continued. “They pissed me off. I said, ‘You know what? Now I gotta get in your face.’ And that’s what we all have to do now. They pissed off the wrong group of people. They have galvanized a community…Instead of having gay marriage in California, we’re going to get it across the country.”

Sykes imagined a day when same-sex marriage would be allowed nationwide. “When my wife and I leave California, I want to have my marriage also recognized in Nevada, in Arizona, all the way to New York,” she said. “How can you stop people from loving each other?”

She was cheered and applauded throughout her almost five minutes of remarks. “I am proud to be a woman,” she said. “I’m proud to be a black woman and I’m proud to be gay.”

Shortly after election day, Sykes was among the 5,000 or so who marched throughout Los Angeles to protest Prop 8.
