Harry Potter goes homosexual. Glee‘s lesbian finally comes out. Patti Stanger pretends the gays hurt her. This week’s gay entertainment news isn’t ready for its close-up.
- Following in the footsteps of James Franco, Daniel Radcliffe has been cast as Allen Ginsberg in the gay-themed thriller Kill Your Darlings, according to Twitch. Will Radcliffe also aspire to play every famous gay person too? It’s a dangerous path to go down. One minute you’re miming oral sex on prosthetic penises, the next you’re hosting the most boring Oscars ever. Consider yourself warned, Harry Potter.
- Glee gets gayer by the day. Last night’s episode, titled “I Kissed A Girl,” saw Santana come out of the closet to her parents and grandma while Kurt and Blaine duetted Pink’s “Fuckin’ Perfect.” And there’s more! TV Line says dutiful husband/bon-bon shaker Ricky Martin will play “the hottest Spanish teacher ever in the history of Ohio” on the show late next January. Ay caramba!
- Breaking: Millionaire Matchmaker‘s Patti Stanger, who previously told gay man Andy Cohen that gay men are incorrigible penis-addicted sluts, is still a idiot. “I couldn’t sleep knowing that I hurt the gay community,” the self-victimizing hag told Andy last night about the controversy following her comments. “Because they mean so much to me. This is my mission in life, to help the gay community.” How about you donate some money to a gay charity or show your face at a GLAAD event then, Patti? That might help a scotch more than reiterating gay stereotypes on national TV. It’s only okay when we do that ourselves over brunch bellinis, okay?

Why any gay man would consult with Patti Stanger mystifies me considering her patronizing attitude and ugly opinions towards and about gay men. To listen to her, she has no clue how gay men actually behave and think. No wonder her success-rate with gay couples is pitifully-low.
Listening to her ranting a few nights ago on Andy Cohen’s “Watch What Happens Live” made me want to throw things at the screen.

Daniel is getting more and more fabulous. Yes please. And poor Patti, I actually thought she had a point because gay people are more promiscuous. But we havn’t been given the option of monogamy. Even where gay marriage is legal people aren’t very supportive of gay people settling down and committing to their partner. Ashame because monogamy could be good for gay people too. Eh.

Patti didn’t screw up, her fault is for telling the truth. Gay men are whores basically. It’s not even really our fault, we’re raised in a society where boys are taught from an early age to “go for the kill” and girls are taught to wait until marriage. In the gay world that counter-balance is missing. I’m pretty reserved by most gay guy standards and I’ve slept with at least 100 guys that I don’t know (or want to know) their names; my straight friends, that number is around 5. She’s not being vilified for making shit up, she’s being vilified for exposing our secret.

@Erich: Erich : “that counterbalance is missing”. That’s very well-put.

@Erich: Thank you! I don’t see what’s wrong with her telling it like it is! That is how it is with not all gay males, but a very good majority of gay males!
And her job is to really get into the mindset of the people who will judge you on a relationship standpoint; she thinks like the majority. And it’s not like she wants people to be paired with someone from the majority, but you need to be able to perservere through the harsh reality that most people are not going to like you sexually if you are not up to that shallow standard. Us gay males are very visual people, and she knows that.
I have no problem with Patti Stanger, so leave her alone please!

Daniel Radcliffe can go gay ANY TIME–especially if it’s in my direction. I rarely gravitate toward guys in their twenties but that boy is clearly an old soul and cute as all get out.

@Erich: Patty remains a nit-wit who is as self aware as a totum pole (just a bit less attractive).
It’s not just gay men; all men love sex. All men love thier penis. All men would love to have sex all the time. Gay men are luckier, they don’t have the ritual of multiple dates, gifts, hours and hours of listening to pointless yackety yackin’ about feelings and needs and pointless thoughts – BEFORE sex.
OK, not all men. Just the good ones.

I thought Radcliffe was gay.

I hope Ben Whishaw is still set to play Carr in Kill Your Darlings! He’s absolutely adorable, and I really want to see him get out there a bit more. Regardless, I’m very excited to see what Radcliffe brings to the project! It is so refreshing to see a child star choosing roles that are both quality/challenging and age-appropriate, unlike the Efrons of the world who cling desperately to high school romcoms and cheap action thrillers well past their primes.

I can’t see Radcliffe as Ginsberg. If he pulls it off I’ll nominate him for “Best Actor Ever”.
