This Week in Gayness: McDonald's Hates Gays... Again

Brian Fairbanks — Fri, 08 May 2009 18:45:00 GMT

Wal-Mart CEO Mike Duke just gave us another reason to hate his awful company-- he signed a petition to ban gay adoptions in Arkansas.

A gay porn star attending college has received a reported 150 hate e-mails from so-called "good Christians."

Bigots like Rick Warren and Sarah Palin are among Time's 100 Most Influential People.

Moron Republican Congressman Steve King thinks gays wouldn't get "bashed" so much if they just stopped acting so gay (never mind that many hate crime victims are straight people mistaken for homosexuals.) Jon Stewart, thankfully, had something to say about this.

Kudos to Britain for banning hatemonger and violence-inciting shout machine Michael Savage from entering their country ever again.

A McDonald's in Kentucky settled with two patrons who were called "faggots" by restaurant staff.

By the way, we heard that the Democratic Governor of New Hampshire might veto the gay marriage bill. Anyone else heard this?

The most trusted Mom(s) in America? Portia and Ellen:

With 31%, Ellen DeGeneres and Portia De Rossi took the top spot. Rounding out the list were Jennifer Aniston (22%), Rachel Ray (20%), Angelina and Brad (18%) and coming in last was Oprah Winfrey with 9%. [Strollerderby]

While You Were Sleeping: Jennifer Aniston Milking It

Brian Fairbanks — Tue, 17 Mar 2009 15:25:00 GMT

Happy St. Patrick's Day, everybody. Whatever that means.

The day we've all been waiting for: Portia does Ellen... 's show.

Liam Neeson's wife Natasha Richardson is in critical condition following a skiing accident.

Poor Steve-O: Dancing With the Stars hurted him too much.

How fucked up is it that the above photo of Amy Winehouse is her looking "healthier" than she has in ages?

That nitwit Tom Green was "fired" from Celebrity Apprentice. That show's still on? And they were even considering Tom Green worthy of being considered for a job at a Donald Trump company? Sheesh.

Imus has prostate cancer.

Jennifer Aniston claims she was the one that dumped John Mayer. Just to milk this story for another news cycle...

Sorry for the late blogging today, we're all here at SXSW now. We'll be at Maggie Mae's tonight if you want to say hello.

This Week in Gayness: Ellen vs. the Bigots

Brian Fairbanks — Tue, 21 Oct 2008 16:21:00 GMT

Nutjob of the Century anti-gay activist Janet Porter actually believes Barack Obama will name Bill Ayers to the Department of Homeland Security and that his wife Michelle will read about the Weather Underground to schoolchildren. Do you think these people actually believe these complete exaggerations and lies or are they just trying to win at any cost?

In troubled times, the homeless suffer the most. In George Bush's America, the gay homeless suffer the most.

The internets wish there was more to this story of Gwyneth Paltrow agreeing to "help" Madonna get over Guy Ritchie...

A decade ago this headline would have been a lot hotter: Gwyneth Paltrow says she's "helping" Madonna get over Guy Ritchie. [Fark]

The New York Times thinks the Connecticut gay marriage fight will come down a fight at the constitutional level.

And you just knew Ellen Degeneres and Portia De Rossi would make a video to fight Proposition 8.

Oh, those aren't Sarah Palin's breasts? Well, with all the nude pictures of the Republican veep nominee floating around the Interwebs, you could have fooled us.

Highs:

We learned to love Matt Damon. A little.

We helped spread some rumors about the Palin kids. And that was fun.

We did what we could to help the giant penis man.

We got super sappy over Ellen Degeneres and Portia de Rossi's wedding video.

We just can't get enough Photoshopped pictures of Republicans.

We found the most ~~inappropriate~~ amazing slide ever.

We know what you're getting for Christmas.

We learned some new ways to talk about masturbation.

Lows:

Sam Ronson and Lindsay Lohan reminded us that yesterday was September 11. And then it got worse.

We learned the war on sex may last longer than the war in Iraq.

We were completely overwhelmed with nude pictures of Sarah Palin.

We saw our future flash before our eyes, and devised a plan to change it.

Minnie Driver still won't tell us who her baby daddy is. But we have some ideas on the subject.

We sold out on our local Fox station.

While You Were Sleeping: The Cancer Scares

Brian Fairbanks — Tue, 19 Aug 2008 13:19:00 GMT

The Rolling Stones song "Satisfaction" technically saved one Englishman's life.

Jossip has a photo from the Ellen wedding.

Heidi Montag's new song "Overdosin'" was met by a steady stream of sales yesterday. Not really, it was made fun of mercilessly online:

Whoever wrote that song was overdosing on something.

overdosin' on stupidness

i agree this song and all of her other songs make me want to overdose too!! [Defamer]

Hayden Panettiere instructed her mom not to sell the star's panties online.

An 85-year-old woman apprehended a 17 year burglar, then made him call 911... at gunpoint.

Christina Applegate no longer has cancer, although Patrick Swayze, who still smokes, continues to battle it.

And the same idiot who sued nightclubs for discriminating against men with Ladies' Nights apparently didn't make enough money ripping off small businesses: he's now suing Columbia for teaching a history syllabus that blames men for the world's "ills."

UPDATE: Link fixed.

Portia de Rossi and Ellen DeGeneres to Marry the Crap Out of Each Other This Weekend

Nicole Pasulka — Fri, 15 Aug 2008 19:41:00 GMT

While we're off discussing the literary pursuits of Ellen DeGeneres' ex Anne Heche, Ellen is frantically planning her wedding to longtime girlfriend Portia de Rossi. See! The legalization of gay marriage in Califorinia is already paying off in EVEN MORE celebrity weddings.

Though we are personally not interested in marrying anything but beer with potato chips, we can't help but get sort of excited for them. Aw emotions.

Video of Ellen announcing the wedding below:

This Week In Gayness: McCain And Ellen

Brian Fairbanks — Thu, 22 May 2008 18:00:00 GMT

McCain said, "I think that people should be able to enter into legal agreements and it's something that we should encourage, particularly in the case of insurance and other areas and decisions that have to be made. I just believe in the unique status of marriage between a man and a woman and I know that we have a respectful disagreement on that issue." [MSNBC]

Watch Ellen's response... her answer is cautious and spot-on, and is met with, thankfully, a chorus of cheers...

Guess Who's Getting Gay Married?

Katie Halper — Fri, 16 May 2008 20:05:00 GMT

The story of California's gay marriage ban...ban was broken by our own Scanner Emily yesterday, and is one small step towards equality for mankind humankind. And one gigantic leap towards a wedding registry for a certain gay celeb who announced "for the first time, I am announcing that I am getting married." Find out who just came out with marriage plans after the jump!

If you said Ellen DeGeneres, you are correct. Here's what she said on her show yesterday:

This is very exciting, I have to say. Yesterday, the California Supreme Court overturned the ban on gay marriage. So I would like to say right now, for the first time, I am announcing that I am getting married. […] I’m so excited. It’s something that we’ve, of course, wanted to do, and we’ve wanted to be legal, and we’re very very excited.

The lucky gal, of course, is Portia de Rossi
