Victoria Jackson, a star once known for her hilarious SNL skits but now more widely recognized as a staunch Tea Party supporter and advocator, has caused some controversy regarding a recent remark she made in reference to Todd Akin's "legitimate rape" controversy. During a recent episode of "The Victoria Jackson Show" broadcasted on YouTube, the 53-year-old comedian insisted that she'd keep a baby conceived from rape because it would be a "blessing from God." Not only that, but on a more recent radio episode of the "Howard Stern Show," Jackson asserts that gay marriage doesn't even exist by the definitions of marriage, and if that were to change it would "make God mad."

Check out the Oct. 2 webisode of "The Victoria Jackson Show." This is Jackson's intro statement to her interview with Rebecca Kiessling, a woman who claims she was conceived as a result of her mother's rape and now advocates for Personhood Mississippi on their "Conceived In Rape" tour. After expressing her own thoughts, she goes on to interview Kiessling.

As for the "Howard Stern Show" clip on gay marriage, check this out:

When Stern asks Jackson her thoughts on gay marriage, she responds with: "I have gay friends ... I don't make their identity their sexuality. To me, he's my fun, theatre-loving, funny friend ... why is his identity his sexuality... [but] I don't think there's such a thing as gay marriage. The definition of marriage is man and woman." When Stern suggests the definition of marriage should be changed, Jackson responds with no, "that would make God mad."

Jackson first made her official Tea Party splash back in 2011 - she is a staunch conservative and doesn't agree with Obama being in the White House. She even wrote a song entitled "There's a Communist Living in the White House."

So what do fans think about Jackson's controversial statements?
