One-time reality show contestant and former Lance Bass boy toy Reichen Lehmkuhl apparently likes to play dress-up. Reichen posted some pictures of his drag-a-licious self on MySpace and DNA snatched up this one, by far the choicest of the bunch.

As you can see Reichen's inner lady's a bit crazed. Just like him!

Bad friend boy bander Lance Bass' yet to be released memoir Out of Sync currently comes in at 1,252 on Amazon.com's best-seller list. Jonathan Plummer's atrocious tell-all, Balancing Act, falls at a disgraceful 166,632.

In other gay book news, Dina McGreevey's Silent Memoir: A Memoir of My Marriage grabbed the 51,214th slot, while ex-hubby and gay American Jim McGreevey's The Confession paperback's comes in near at 370,711.

You may have heard that Reichen - the former Amazing Racer turned "activist" turned Lance Bass' butt-buddy - has just released a book, Here's What We'll Say: Growing Up, Coming Out, and the US Air Force.

As is requisite for any celebrity (however pseudo) memoir, there's a painful tale that Reichen's never before disclosed.

Reichen's comes in the form of a hazing-related sexual assault while at the Air Force academy. It seems that poor Reichen was snatched from his bed, blind folded and taken to a room where he was forced to do naked push-ups…into another cadets mouth! Speaking with ABC News, Reichen says, "I think it's the first time that I've said that that happened… I've been ashamed of it."

In preparation for our Totally Frightful Interview with Reichen (which will be posted later this week), we sat down to read said book and, yes, we read the scene in which he gets his wee-wee sucked. Reichen writes:

I was so sexually aroused, yet feeling so violated, that I didn't know what to do. I struggled to move away from them but they held me tighter. The motjon of getting away felt so good between my lefs that I kept moving up and down. It only took me about two minutes to come, and when I did, the guy in front of me had turned his body somewhat so that my face was on his chest. I must have given him a hickey on his chest as I sucked on his skin while I came.

Not to discredit Reichen's psychic trauma, it reads more like erotic fiction than emotional confession.

Despite the sensual undertones in the book, we're sure the entire experience sucked…

• The rumors surrounding Lance Bass' sexuality are certain to never die down now that he's been taped leaving a club with reality hottie Reichen Lehmkuhl (see above video clip). And a car full of beards. Watch the clip. [X17]

• Just in time for Gay Pride in New York, Kevin Federline takes over the town to drum up publicity for .. well, we're not sure what, exactly. [MollyGood]

• X-Men's Ian McKellan takes Hollywood to task – once again – for its notion that gay actors should keep their sexuality to themselves. Because if who you slept with had anything to do with talent, how do you explain Heath Ledger in Brokeback Mountain? (Jake Gyllenhaal's rumors stand for themselves.) [PR Inside]

Mardi Gras is coming to NYC next Tuesday at the Roxy and we’re wetting our pants with excitement. Our pals over at Spin Cycle with help from LIFEbeat are producing a show that will feature over 75 go-go boys. 75? Um, we’re there.

If that’s not enough Michael Lucas, Robin Byrd, and Reichen Lehmkuhl will all be on hand. The party is benefiting the NO/AIDS Task Force, which was wiped out by Hurricane Katrina.

Oh and get this. MC Hammer is performing live. Yes, the MC Hammer performing live at the Roxy! This is going to be one surreal evening. We just downloaded “You Can’t Touch This” in anticipation.

Break out your Mardi Gras beads and your MC Hammer pants. We’re partying like it’s the early 1990s again!

Reichen Lehmkuhl seems to have done just about everything. A captain in the Air Force, reality TV star extraordinaire and now host of his own talk show. He talks to Queerty about his experience on E!’s Kill Reality and those pesky Clay Aiken rumors.

What was the experience on E! Television's reality show Kill Reality like for you?

At first, I thought it was going to be fun, but then it kind of turned into a saga revolving around just a couple people in the house and no one else. That's when all of "our people" turned off Kill Reality and watched other things on TV, unfortunately.

Was the set really as wild as it is rumored to have been?

Yes, it was more wild than you could ever imagine, but my lips are sealed. Reality stars have money—more than you think—and I don’t want to get sued for defamation. :)

There's talk you have a nude scene in the upcoming DVD of The Scorned, the movie Kill Reality documented the making of? How okay are you with nudity? Would you ever do full frontal?

Yes, I show my ass in the upcoming movie, The Scorned (premiering on E! on Halloween night), but only in the DVD version that you can buy. The TV version will not show it, or at least that's what they've told me. I’m in the shower, washing myself, and soap is running down my back down onto…well, my ass.

I guess that happens every time I take a shower. Just this time it was filmed in a motion picture. I'm okay with nudity, but most aren't, and I would not show full-frontal to the public for that very reason.

After the jump Reichen talks about his ex, new talk show, and American Idol Clay Aiken.

We promise this will be the last time we mention horses, cowboys or anything country-western. Our TV's been stuck on CMT all day and we're too lazy to get off our butts and search for the remote. Still, we couldn't let another day pass without at least addressing the rumors surrounding the marital break-up of our favorite odd couple, Kenny Chesney and pouty-faced actress Renee Zellweger. Zellweger has mysteriously cited "fraud" as the reason for the annulment. This of course has every has every blogger and their mother scream "Gay! Gay! Gay!" The Boston Herald has even devoted an entire article to Chesney's sexuality.

And now he's also come out to reassure us all that he'll "be OK." But his publicist says he is "unequivocally not gay."

OK, we're not totally convinced the little country crooner might be playing on our team just yet. Not until the inevitable Reichen Lehmkuhl hook-up rumors surface.

We love the Clay Aiken/ReichenLehmkuhl love affair story so much here at Queerty. Part of the reason is that we feel somewhat connected to the two stars, well to the one star and the one model/actor/reality tv winner. We have a friend of a friend. And that friend of a friend confirms that he sodomized Aiken. I believe it. Kathy Griffin does too.

Reichen is also connected to one of Queerty's best friends. So in a way, we feel like we know him too.

So the thought of these two doin' it kinda makes us giddy with excitement. Can you imagine Reichen going to town on Clay while he poses and flexes for himself in the mirror. And can you imagine the notes Miss Aiken hits when straddling the reality star?

I wonder if they met on Friendster? Or perhaps Manhunt, where one of Perez's readers gives away one of the boys' profile name?

Though we tease, we still love Reichen Lehmkuhl. More after the jump.
