Glamazonia, the name used professionally by Thom Hubert, had been serving as mistress of ceremonies for seven years and raising $12,000 a month, The Seattle Times reported.
Hubert says he agreed to take anti-harassment training and was open to discussing the language he used at Gay Bingo.
"I never claimed that I couldn't or wouldn't work under those conditions," he said. "I just needed their help in interpreting them."
A spokeswoman for the group said Hubert never got in touch with human resources to arrange training. But that means the group needs to find someone to fill Glamazonia's large-size high heels.
"I think we can still have a gay, sassy Gay Bingo without having to go to those depths," Richart said.
