In discussing Interview With the Vampire: Claudia's Story, Anne Rice says about Lestat and Louis Sexy clown"I never thought of it, they were the first vampire same-sex parents." The original headline said they were gay, which Rice never said, and the comments are a furious debate about whether io9.com went too far with that.

After a couple of weeks of discussion about the disparity in sexiness between men's and women's Halloween costumes, Buzzfeed has conceded that gay men like their costumes much like costume manufacturers like their female costumes – sexy. They provide plenty of comparisons.

Scientists have created a small strip, much like a breath strip, that when used immediately after burning the roof of your mouth on hot cheese, like I do on pizza, relieves the pain and promotes healing. I'll take a case.

George TakeiGeorge Takei is headed to Hawaii Five-O, where he'll be playing Chin's uncle. Hopefully he can finally get McDanno to express their love openly.

Ashton Kutcher is the highest paid actor on television, raking in $24 million/year to keep Two and a Half Men breathing. Jim Parsons is the only out actor on the list, with $8 million/year.

Dallas is bringing Joan Van Ark and Ted Shackelford from Knots Landing in for a big Ewing family reunion this spring.

Madonna has been sent a legal summons to appear in court in St. Petersburg for breaking the law on promotion of homosexuality. MadonnaShe's facing a $10 million fine. I'd normally think that Madonna would just blow off the summons, but she has a Hard Candy gym in Moscow, and she may need to deal with this in order to maintain her business interests.

Happy Endings has tapped Briga Heelan to play Jane's old lesbian lover. While the plot synopsis focuses on Brad's feelings, I can't help but wonder how Max responds to lesbians. On television (and yes, sometimes in real life), gay men and lesbians don't always mix well.

There will be a Happy Endings/Apt 23 crossover episode of sorts for Halloween, and while the article doesn’t spoil the character from Happy Endings that shows up, the picture at TV Guide Anne Hathawayseems to give it away.

Anne Hathaway is donating part of the proceeds from her wedding photos to Freedom To Marry, helping same-sex couples to achieve the happiness she and her gay brother have found.

Wolfgang Van Halen says about he and his band “Fun fact: Was just insulted by that sh**ty boy band #OneDirection in the lobby of our hotel this morning!” What, they asked him to bring them coffee?

 I showed you the poster for Dylan O'Brien's First Time yesterday, then I put out a request on Tumblr to have the poster fixed. It took about 15 minutes to get this. I love the internet.

But seriously, who here thinks Sterek's first time hasn't happened?

 This is Wyclef Jean, in a Speedo, on a Ducati, on his 43rd birthday. I turn 41 next month, which gives me two years in the gym to reach this level.

I would never post that of myself tho. Where would I find a Ducati in West Virginia?

 I wonder if Harry and Ron ever had this problem?

 I'm hoping this picture of the Chatswin Labradors means we'll spend Teen Wolf-level locker room time on Suburgatory

 There's something very appealing about Neil Greyston

 How do we feel about Chris Colfer with his hair messed up?

 A legend with a legend in the making?

 In one of the funnier, more touching bits I've seen lately, Aziz Ansari went on Jimmy Kimmel Live and talked about the conundrum of Chick-Fil-A and gay rights, and you'll be happy to know he's given up his beloved chicken sandwich. But it's how he ties it into the civil rights movement and history will have you cheering and laughing. I am not responsible for the weird looks you're about to get from your coworkers.

 

The latest trailer for Jack Reacher has Tom Cruise as a badass with nothing to lose, which could really describe most of his characters lately. He may have nothing to lose, but it seems he's got something to prove.

 

Ellen wanted to see if Nicole Ritchie could recognize the smell of her new fragrance, so naturally she got beefy, shirtless models and sprayed them with different scents and had Nicole smell them. Repeatedly. Then she smelled them. In my mind, the models were sniffing each other.

 

If you want to see the internet, it's sort of complex since it's really a distributed thing. But the closest thing most of us can imagine is actually a Google data center, where the internet is cataloged. The working areas are bright and cheerful, and the hardware is endless.

 

One thing I've never actually thought about, how much does a shadow weigh?

Robot Chicken aired a series of faux white wine commericals this week that were decidedly gay in content. The first, "Solid Dudes," takes the coming out process and makes it all better with a little delightful vino.

 

They then segued into actually heading to the gay bar, and immersing yourself in the gay culture, or at least what straight people think the gay culture is. Guilt can be made to fade with a little white wine.

 

Finally, they hit up just how society's expectations can drive people, gay and straight, into life paths that might not fit them, but with enough white wine, you can learn to live with it.
