2009-07-13T23:49:00.001-04:00

Alright, although Gay Pride Week was last week, I'm still feeling in a gay mood. I've been feeling that way for 26 years. Anyway, I thought we'd do another Hot or Hot? but this time we'd talk about some guys in pop culture that I can't get outta my head NO MATTER HOW HARD I TRY!I'm not proud of liking any of these men, and am greatly embarrassed that I do but forget how I feel about them...

Chelsea Handler.[p.s. watching "Chelsea Lately" on E! right now actually, and I've been meaning to say this for some time but the talk show host and comedienne Ms. Handler has really upped her wardrobe/make-up budget recently, and while she always had a coltish charm, she's been looking great recently. Of course she's hilarious no matter what she looks like. Go Chelsea!][p.s.s. thank you for

Today's Word of the Day is:bisexualityAlright, we're going to school today, everybody! I've noticed that some of you out in the world are still confused about bisexuality and I wanted to take a moment to clear some things up. I am a bisexual man. It's my sexuality. It's who I am. Yet, despite my confidence in and understanding of my sexuality, I have gotten into many a conversation turned

What's so special about gay love, you ask?Um, how about everything.

Guillermo Diaz.[p.s. sorry guys, I was having this little war with myself because I was determined not to pick an actor for the swoon because I always pick actors. So I turned the TV off... And started watching bootlegs of the Showtime show "Weeds" online on the Internets box. And of course, as I'm watching some episodes (which I didn't really like but that's another story), I realize that not

Happy Fourth of July!

2009-07-04T10:10:00.000-04:00

Happy Fourth of July, everyone!It's the US Independence Day, you know, the day when we celebrate when the country's forefathers collectively put on their "I Will Survive" cassingles and told the British to kiss it before they miss it walkin' out the door. I think.Listen, the story of the United States' independence from the British has been told and retold so many times, who knows how much junk

My Top 5: Favorite Summer "Sun" Songs!

Hey everyone! This was the post we were supposed to do last week when you know what happened happened, and although we are all still thinking about it and it's in the news, I think the best way to honor those we've lost is to live life to the fullest. And it is July and that means: summertime!Last year, we listened to summer songs and this time around the Official Juice with Junior Summer

Okay, this tale has the potential of being the longest story ever told so I'm gonna try to condense it as much as possible. But I have been waiting like four days to tell you guys so my excitement might get the best of me.Okay, breathe... Let me start at the beginning. So every summer, the wonderful people at The Public Theater put on "Shakespeare in the Park," which is this completely free, open

Thing I... Wish I Didn't Have to Write: In Memoriams

2009-06-29T08:07:00.002-04:00

Okay, I feel composed enough to talk about stuff that occurred over the past week and even in the past months because for awhile there, I was really pretending that none of it was going on. But that's not healthy so let's dive in and hope for the best. I'll try to keep it together.So I don't know if you guys noticed but I haven't been writing memorial posts for people who died in entertainment

Michael Urie.[p.s. hey kiddies! I just got back from the big Gay Pride Parade in Manhattan with my friend James, who was less than enthused when I screamed out that I saw Michael Urie from ABC's "Ugly Betty." Then the amazing thing happened! I waved... AND URIE WAVED BACK! Then I snapped a picture like a psycho and waved back! AND HE WAVED AGAIN! Clearly, it was written in the stars...][p.s.s.

My Top 5: Favorite Michael Jackson Songs

2009-06-25T20:50:00.003-04:00

I think everyone can agree that this will go down in history as one of the worst entertainment news days ever. So I'm not even in shock anymore. I'm am completely stunned silent. I have no words. Anyway, I was actually in the process of planning a post about Farrah Fawcett (which will appear next week) when I heard the stunning news. That Michael Jackson (above) had died at the age of 50 due to a

TV Time: In Praise of the Boozy Brassy Broad

2009-06-24T21:42:00.009-04:00

I hope no one is offended by my use of the word "broad." I mean no disrespect; there's just no other way I can think of how to describe the type of lady I mean. I'll start at the beginning. So as an answer to a prayer I didn't know that I had, Lifetime has begun re-airing episodes of the 90s CBS sitcom "Cybill."They were showing them in the afternoon until they suddenly stopped doing this. Why?I

Guys, I have been so preoccupied by John Cena that I have totally fallen behind on my Batista coverage. As the second hottest man in professional wrestling, I really should have been tracking his movements like a mama lion hawks a gazelle in the brush. So for this I do greatly apologize.Here's why I say so: I was watching TV this weekend when I caught an ad for the Starz movie network that I

I hope you are having a great day talking to your father, hanging out with your father, remembering your father, or celebrating fathers.Now out of all the made-up holidays our society chooses to embrace, I actually don't hate Father's Day that much. I don't think fathers get enough recognition as it is. From deadbeat dads to Jon Gosselin, dads really don't get much

Yes, television en Español, those Spanish-language stations that show programming 24/7 and yet the brilliance and the failings of these networks barely crack the national consciousness. Well, because my blog is so influential, we're gonna change
