Cameron Monaghan, who plays him, Ian Gallagherturned 18, and so the show is no longer prohibited by federal law from showing him in frank sexual situations. "In the final episodes, we see him engaged romantically with a man and I loved it. (Monaghan) is not gay, but he has completely embraced the idea of this character." The interviews with Madonna keep leaking out, including this soundbite from Newsweek concerning her reaction to "Born This Way" by Lady Gaga. ""I thought, this is a wonderful way to redo my song. I mean, I recognized the chord changes. I thought it was ... interesting." There are reports The Out Hotel NYC plans not only communal showers and room sharing, but also an all-male housekeeping staff "hopefully between the ages of 18 and 24, Latino, and handsome." Needless to say, activists for the Latino community are not pleased. In what may be the most incredible New York Times piece I've ever read, Public Editor Arthur Brisbane inquires "on whether and when New York Times news reporters should challenge "facts" that are asserted by newsmakers they write about." Seriously, the newspaper of record is asking if their reporters should seek out facts. As of now, the "paper of record" just parrots statements of newsmakers, which is no better than publishing press releases. How journalism has fallen this far I have no idea. They should be ashamed. Russell Tovey GrabbersBilerico has an excellent guide to queer films at Sundance, including Elijah Wood's gay character in Celeste and Jesse Forever. But they did miss my future ex-husband's turn at playing straight in Grabbers. If you saw that disturbing Girl Scout video this week and wondered how parents could allow such a thing, one need look no further than Mission America virulently anti-gay host Linda Harvey, who appears to be connected to the campaign. I ordered six boxes of cookies from an employee's kids this week, triple my normal two box limit. James Franco has found another gay role to play now that Mapplethorpe has received funding from Tribeca. The role was originally planned for Nate Dushku, Eliza's brother, who is now producing. Same Sex marriages of non-Canadians were thrown in uncertainty when a government lawyer argued in court that persons who married in the nation who were not eligible to marry in their place of residence were not legally married. As thousands fretted about years of their lives being called into question Prime Minister Harper said "We have no intention of further re-opening or opening this issue." He stated if divorce was what was at question, the law could be looked at or amended as needed, but the legal brief as filed wasn't the position of the government. Outsports has a thoughtful article entitled Is Tim Tebow Gay? I initially shied away from it just based on the headline, but I don't think Cyd is trying to be sensational, I think he's really trying out an idea. Speaking of Tebow, he seems to remain the only person on the planet who can accept a contract from an underwear company and still never stand in an ad in tighty whities. The Inbetweeners movie is set to receive a U.S. release this summer by Wrekin Hill. A coalition of religious leaders wants to know why MSNBC invites hateful, anti-gay liars on the network to represent the views of Christians. Here's a recipe for Unicorn Poop cookies.Stefon Aspiring film maker Eric James Borges of California, aged 19, succumbed to suicide. He made an It Gets Better Video last month, and was an intern with The Trevor Project, and we still lost him. Someone doing a stunning impersonation of Saturday Night Live's Stefon is writing revues for venues on Yelp. Is Fredrik Eklund, the newest agent on Million Dollar Listing, the same person as the strapping 6'4" adult star Tag Ericksson? Does it matter? Reality stars having adult entertainment pasts or naked pictures is almost a rite of passage. Just this week I saw a truly impressive picture of Flipping Out's Trace Lehnhoff. In what may be a new low, the CW has ordered a game show called Oh Sit! based on the game of musical chairs. In their defense, it sounds like an obstacle course game, and instead of ranking their times, they just have one too few chairs at the finish line. Target has confirmed that Apple is opening stores inside a limited number of their locations, and some reports are even saying they will include Genius Bars. An Arizona woman is launching a class action lawsuit against Avis, saying that their marketing agreement offering discounts through the International Gay and Lesbian Travel Association and the National Gay and Lesbian Chamber of Commerce violates California's Unruh Civil Rights Act, which prohibits businesses from offering discounts based on sexual orientation. In all Lyle O'Donohoehonesty, who didn't see this coming? If it wasn't this, it would have been a gay resort or something else. Although the straight person who stays at a Palm Springs gay resort is probably up for anything. DeGrassi returns to TeenNick Monday, February 20th with new episodes that will include a new cast, including Tristan Milligan (Lyle O'Donohoe), who is "out, proud, and wants to rule the school." Bullied teen Caleb Laieski founded Gays and Lesbians United Against Discrimination (GLUAD) at age 13, spent 35 days lobbying Congress, and is now one of 25 finalists for American Inspired.
