Author J.K. Rowling pledged to support Macy Gray after the singer came under fire for comments she made about trans women during an interview with Piers Morgan.

Gray said that no amount of surgery would ever be able to turn men into women, even if they change their "parts." 

While both agreed that trans people deserve “fairness and equality," Morgan brought the issue up in the context of sports and pointed out the unfair advantage biological men have over women. 

“I totally agree,” Gray said. “And I will say this, and everybody’s going to hate me, but as a woman, just because you go change your parts doesn’t make you a woman. Sorry.” 

“You feel that,” Morgan followed up. 

“I know that for a fact,” she responded. “Like, if you want me to call you a her, I will, because that’s what you want. But that doesn’t make you a woman, just because I call you a her and just because you got a surgery.”

Following predictable backlash, Rowling said it "feels like a good day to ensure" she's purchased all of Gray's music.
