Watching the Oscar red carpet madness gives us such a headache. We can’t keep track of who’s who, what they’re doing there and why we should care.
The kids over at E! were certainly no help – not only did they not seem to know the answers to those pressing questions, they didn’t seem to give two shits. The complete and utter stupidity of Ryan Seacrest, Giuliana Depandi and homo extraordinaire Jay Manuel from America’s Next Top Model was only eclipsed by former The View co-host Debbie Manopoulos. When asked how she stays so thin, she said “I don’t eat”. The duo over at ABC weren’t any better and Joan and Melissa Rivers on TV Guide really couldn’t hold our attention.
As hard as it may be to believe, the only person we could focus on in the celebrity cluster fuck was Sally Kirkland. Coincidentally enough, her reality defying, rabbi designed dress seems to be made from the rainbow flag. Thus, she’s our Oscar patron saint.
So, round of applause for Ms. Kirkland. Crazy’s never looked so good. Or so disturbing.
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
See some more red carpet shots, after the jump…
Portia’s all, “Yeah, I fuck Ellen. Yeah, I’m fucking hot. Yeah, my hair’s in a pony tail.”
“Now you know.”
It’s like a lesbian invasion! We had Ellen hosting, Portia looking hot to trot and now new Oscar-winner Melissa Etheridge and main squeeze Tammy Lynn Michaels (yes, of blog fame) dripping in diamonds. According to Michaels’ aforementioned blog, the ladies wore about $1.2 million worth of the sparkling stone. Good thing, too, because we needed a distraction from Etheridge’s song. We’re all about stopping global warming and shit, but seriously did it deserve an Oscar?
He’s no lesbian. In fact, he’s not even gay, but Steve Carell did play gay in Little Miss Sunshine. He also presented with co-star Greg Kinnear, who played gay in As Good as It Gets. We just got chills…
Where can Jennifer Hudson go from here? Space, perhaps?
Because we know you love Helen Mirren. She’s British, you know.
Marc Anthony’s transformation into Dracula is nearly complete. Poor Jennifer Lopez doesn’t know what he has in mind for her, although we’re sure she’ll be glad to know she can wear that dress to their wedding of the damned.
Just so you get the complete effect.

Sally Kirkland can ALWAYS be counted on to bring the crazy! Love her.

“We’re all about stopping global warming and shit, but seriously did it deserve an Oscar?”
Yes it did deserve an Oscar, the song was part of one of the most socially important films in years, and if that in itself is not deserving of an Oscar, I don’t know what is. The song isn’t my type of music, but I fully respect and applaud the decision.
petulant
Regardless of the social implications of the song or the movie-which has more significance- her song sounded like every other damn song she has written. Very droll. Watch the movie and forsake the soundtrack.
And Sally Kirkland rules with her crazytown of fashion and nutty religion!

She should win an Oscar because her song is socially important? Whatever happened to winning an Oscar because you’ve made great art? Isn’t this supposed to be about how good the movies (and the music therein) are? I don’t want the ice caps to melt either, ya’ll, but, come on. SHUT THE FUCK UP and enjoy a movie about important stuff, like ex-boyfriends or fucking or the resiliency of the human spirit.

What happened to Sally Kirkland? Did she grow like two new chins? Or was it just a bad camera moment?
