• Madonna got a haircut. No word on an amount, but we bet it costs a fucking fortune to look so - um...well, to have such nice looking hair. The face? Not looking so hot...
• Ellen injured! Lesbian talk show host and all around lesbian Ellen Degeneres will be performing her chat fest from bed after injuring her back. Perhaps Portia got a little rough?
• Kenya is getting lax on the fags. Gay activist Angus Parkinson says:of Liverpool VCT, a support centre in Nairobi, "Kenya is heading in a different direction from its neighbours." Well, we should hope so, because neighboring Uganda doesn't have the best record...
• Today's fag rags have less fag and more rag, according to journo Sam McManis: "Now, these niche newspapers and magazines seem more about the "active lifestyle," as the media cliche goes. Home improvement. Fashion. Celebrity culture. All the fun, frivolous stuff." Yeah, but it also brings in the ever-important dollar. Gotta get that dollar, homie...
• Candy Spelling's plan to save America's international image? More reruns of Charlie's Angels, Dynasty and, if we're in a bind, Falcon's Crest.
• On Friday, we informed you that an Arkansas man's suing his local library because his son suffered "many sleepless nights" after finding The Whole Lesbian Sex Book. Um, duh he had sleepless nights (assuming, of course, he's straight). Speaking on the brouhaha, the book's author, Felice Newman, asks, "If librarians pull such books from the shelves, where will kids find out about sex?" You're looking at it...
• Andy Warhol's the number two highest-selling artist in the world. Picasso's number one.

• Kenyans are gearing up for a good ol' fashioned homo beat down. Hurray!
• If you're looking for a laugh, head over to the AfterElton blog and watch Lisa Lampanelli's bit from the Pam Anderson roast. It's seriously one of the funniest things we've ever heard. Although, we can't help but ponder this censorship: "What a whore Courtney [Love] is - she's suck a dick for a diet [bleep]". Why?
• Toronto's basketball team, The Raptors, have announced they'll host a "gay day". It's called "Rainbow Hoops". Clever.

• What if curing HIV was as simple as clicking our heels together and having Glinda the Good Witch tell us that we had the power all along?

For real, it's the true story of a Christian,gay, celibate 32-year-old Kenyan man, and he's pretty chipper about it all. [BBC]
• If this makes you feel better, hatemongering is not only unique to the American political process, but is happening Down Under as well. [ABC Australia]
