Musician Chely Wright to open LGBT center in US

FILE - In this Oct. 8, 2010 file photo, musician Chely Wright arrives at the Gay, Lesbian, and Straight Education Network's Respect Awards in Beverly Hills, Calif. When Wright came out as a lesbian, radio stations stopped playing her songs, record sales dropped and venues stopped booking her. Now two years later, Wright is seeking to help others facing challenges because of their sexual orientation through LIKEME Lighthouse, a community center opening this weekend in Kansas City, Mo.
