Is Marriage, In Fact, Under Attack?
NBC's Brian Williams doesn't write the news he reads, but perhaps he should start editing a bit. As you'll see in this video, during which Williams discusses Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip's anniversary. Money quote: "In an era when marriage is under attack, the United Kingdom is these days celebrating a 60th wedding anniversary: the longest marriage of any monarchy." Video-source Good As You ain't happy about this potentially conservative slip-up, writing: …The hyperbolic idea that this institution is being "attacked" is one that is most often associated with the far right's anti-gay marriage campaigns. So, at best, this was bad news writing; at worst, it's a prominent journalist and news outlet taking some irresponsible, rhetorical bait. Either way, we're less than thrilled. Our bet: a Fox News plant in the writer's room. Or mind control. Or, possibly, both. |

Call "Security Threat" Claim "Homophobic Nonsense"
Dreyfus, who heads Queen Elizabeth's security team, joked that he wanted people to "bite, grope, lick or spank him" and also displayed a conversation in which he cracked to a friend, "Hope the leather shorts didn’t chafe too much on Saturday.” |

• While Queen Elizabeth's guards may be stiff and formal in public, it's a different story when they're getting ready for work. A very different story.

With kid sis Ashlee getting so much attention after donning a new schnoz, the visual evidence suggests Jessica got jealous.

Queerty has exclusive and definitive proof that English pop sensation Robbie Williams is heterosexual. The definitive proof was gained in coincidence with Williams' winning settlements of up to one million $$$$$ from the cheese press in London, which outrageously asserted he is not a vagina-loving heterosexual. For starters, we once saw Robbie Williams in the heat of passion with a female, and quite obviously not faking his enjoyment of the event. Don’t ask why we were peering through that window. Then you must consider that he sang Somethin’ Stupid as a duet with Nicole Kidman. Does Nicole look like a beard? On his IMDB page, Williams is quoted as saying “When it comes down to it, I just like taking my pants down.” If you interviewed straight men on the street, 50% would also say they just like taking their pants down, and the other 50% would be lying. Gay men, on the other hand, would all admit that they just like taking their pants down (excepting of course those who just like lifting their skirts up). So spread the news, rather than your legs; Robbie Williams is as straight as Frankenstein’s monster. |
