We've talked repeatedly about DaVinci's Demons, and been assured that
the show will address DaVinci's sexuality at some point. In Cannes, David S. Goyergave his most direct quote yet on the subject, "He was arrested and tried for sodomy twice and we deal with that in the first series. I expect it to be an extremely controversial episode, which I love.”
Senator Orrin Hatch is a conservative from Utah, but even he seems to understand that equality is inevitable, even if he's going to fight it all the way. "I’ll say this, I do believe this could be solved greatly by a civil-union law that would give gay people the same rights as married people. I think we can solve this problem without undermining the very basis of marital law in our country."
Edward Peters, a law professor in Detroit and legal advisor to The Vatican thinks that people who support same sex marriage should refrain from communion, because it's like perjury.
Meanwhile, an analysis of illegal torrents going into the Vatican reveal a predilection for lesbian, BDSM, and Russian slave porn.
Electronic Arts looks poised to win Consumerist's Worst Company award, yet again. And EA is claiming it isn't bad games, crippling DRM, or a lack of respect for their customers that got them on the hate list, 
but their decision to embrace GLBT characters in their games. Consumerist isn't buying it though. "“EA received hundreds of nominations from Consumerist readers this year, by far the most of any contender in the bracket, but not a single one mentioned anything about sexual orientation."
David Geffenhas donated $25 million to the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures, who will name the premiere-grade theater after him as a thank you. $25 million sounds like a lot, but it's largely a roudning error to Geffen.
Among the NBC renewals that will probably happen today, Deadline calls The New Normal"hopeful."
Since it got so much attention yesterday, Ray J swears that despite the references to the sex tape and the pixilated image of Kim Kardashian on his album cover, "I Hit It First"isn't about Kim. “It’s a song, it’s not about that. It’s about a concept. People are going way too deep.”
I'm a Bisexual man. Why Is That So Hard To Say?
Fox says that if Aereo, which transmits public airwaves broadcasts over the web to subscribers is ruled legal, Fox will consider abandoning broadcast for cable only. This will never happen, but it's interesting foot stomping.
I had no idea who Farrah Abraham was when I starting seeing everyone report that she might have a sex tape. Evidently she's one of MTV's Teen Moms. It turns out she evidently does have a sex tape, made with Canyons star James Deen, and it's garnering huge interest from porn companies. On a side note, is it just me, or are straight male porn stars kind of disappointing when compared to gay porn stars?
It turns out that Jay-Z and Beyonce's trip to Cuba was legal, because they were given a "person-to-person" license to travel to meet with local artists, and their trip doesn't qualify as a vacation because they 
didn't do vacation stuff like go to the beach.
Congratulations to Sara Gilbert, who has accepted a surprise wedding proposal from singer-songwriter Linda Perry.
Reports say that the bipartisan immigration bill set to be unveiled shortly will not include provisions for binational same sex couples in the initial form. Can I see a show of hands of people who think it can be amended to include binational same sex couples? Anyone?
The Glee Projectis not canceled, contrary to reports. Oxygen says they just haven't made a decision because Fox hasn't technically renewed Glee yet.
Rick Santorumis claiming that Starbucks wants all supporters of traditional marriage to sell their stock, which is not what the CEO said at all. Why can't these family values types ever speak without lying, which I think most religions frown upon.
I don't watch Breaking Bad (I know, I know), but the last time I flipped past, Walt Jr. was just a kid. But these images R.J. Mittetook forDark Beauty Magazine show that he's all grown up, and evidently ready to party.
He definitely fits the name of the magazine
Not only is Ryan Steele incredibly hot, he evidently cooks, too
David Burtka uploaded a ton of pics from Neil's scavenger hunt, but this one was the most fun
Flashback for Warehouse 13's Eddie McClintock
Chaz and his mom in a recent picture
Awkward is returning soon, and a new school year means new students, and in their orientation they learn that everything at the school revolves around Jenna, Matty, and Jake. Academics are something they can figure out on their own.
The first known traditional Zulu same-sex wedding took place recently in South Africa. It looks to be a happy community affair, which is nice to see considering all the negative press coming out of other parts of Africa these days on gay rights.
Brad Paisley has teamed up with LL Cool J for "Accidental Racist" on his new album. I really don't know what to say about this. Brad is a West Virginia boy, and we're technically from the south, but he's from Huntington, and that's not precisely southern charm, but a university town. I suppose you can admire what he tried to do here, delving into the mental disconnect that some southerners have with symbols like the Confederate flag, but it's so poorly done The Onion wouldn't have put this out. He tramples all over his good points by trying to say that he's not the one who did all those terrible racist things in the past, and hey, after all, it's been 150 years. LL mostly comes in on the chorus to provide counterpoint perspective, but even that is pretty poorly done, and as far as rap goes, he sounds like he's reading off a paper he's only just seen. I'd love to give partial credit here, but it's just awful when you get down to it, terrible music with awful points that may make things worse.
Old Spice has a new watermelon scented soap, and a new commercial for it that's just weird. I won't gross you out what I thought when he reached into that watermelon.
I'm a Stripper is from Charlie David, and will be running on Logo this month. These guys are hot, and it sounds like while they love what they do, there's not much they won't do if the money is right.
Cutie Joe McElderry is teaming up with the Royal Mail Choir to perform "Abide With me" to benefit cancer research, and it sounds like they really all had a wondrous experience recording the song.
We've talked about Disconnect before, with several different threaded stories, and the acting debut of Marc Jacobs, who runs a ring of webcam porn with homeless kids, but makes sure they're safe and happy. This clip shows him meeting a new prospect, and may be NSFW.
Matt R. Salmon is the gay son of Rep. Matt Salmon of Arizona. His father doesn't support marriage equality, even for his son. Junior Matt went on a local public affairs show to talk about his relationship with his father, claiming MSNBC and CNN both dropped interviews with him when he said he wouldn't be critical of his dad, and also spoke about leaving reparative therapy and how that put a strain on the relationship with his father. I try and understand that people have unique relationships with their families that are hard to understand from the outside, but this just sounds like Stockholm Syndrome to me. There's nothing there that sounds like a healthy relationship built on love and respect, and with reparative therapy added to the mix, I think it might explain a lot. I really feel sorry for this young man.
