Wendi McLendon-Covey To Host West Coast Liberty Awards

Hollywood beauty Wendi McLendon-Covey has been confirmed as the host of the annual West Coast Liberty Awards, 2015.

The West Coast Liberty Awards is an inspiring event which honours people who have made an impact on the lives of LGBT people, and Wendi has always been a supporter of LGBT rights.

She spoke out on the Boy Scouts of America ban on gay scouts and leaders, which Lambda Legal argued all the way to the US Supreme Court. The 'Goldbergs' star has also portrayed the role of a lesbian mother and Cameron's (Eric Stonestreet) nemesis, Pam, on "Modern Family."

"I was so honored and immediately said yes when I was asked to host this year," said Wendi upon being asked to host the West Coast Liberty Awards reports The Wrap. "I have always been very supportive and have so many friends and family that are active in the community so I really wanted to be a part of this year's West Coast Liberty Awards," she added.

"Wendi McLendon-Covey is a committed ally and advocate for equality and her humor and passion will make for a great evening as we celebrate those making a positive impact in our community," said Lambda Legal's Western Regional Director, Rick Davis, in a statement.

West Coast Liberty Awards will be held at The Beverly Wilshire Four Seasons Hotel on Thursday, June 11.
