Human Rights Watch articulates sentiments that proposed immigration restrictions are especially problematic for LGBT families. Because gay couples can't obtain marriages that are legal on the Federal level, immigrants here "illegally" risk prison time–as do the Americans who support them. We're quite concerned about this, as we think South American guys are hotter than sex on toast and we've long dreamed of sugar-daddying one into our lives. Not that it matters now, as we'd never be able to afford it on these Queerty salaries. [HumanRIghtsWatch]

girl_1.jpg• China forbids married gay couples from Massachusetts from adopting orphans–and adoption in the state declines by 6%! That's okay, Edina from AbFab always says you should adopt your babies from Romania anyway. [365Gay]

• RCA has released its collection of obscure dance music to iTunes, in what can only be described as the coming of the future. Although they list a Kelly Clarkson remix as one of the most exciting selections. Perhaps that's giving her a bit too much credit. [27/7Gay]

• Apparently the Will & Grace finale on May 18 is going to be quite the show to watch. NBC has already announced it will be released on DVD, on May 30. It totally sucks now and the characters are totally stupid, but when they hire the right writers that show sings. Hopefully they'll pull this one together too. [NY Daily News]

• We know you don't do the low-carb/no-dairy thing anymore. So over. And good thing: Benn & Jerry's is FREE tomorrow. [Jossip]

• Under the files of "why didn't we get that for ourselves when we had the chance?"–You can own www.lesbian.com. For two million dollars. Notice how you hear Dr. Evil's voice when you read that? TWO MILLLLLION DOLLARS. [HotHouse]

• The love for 8th and Ocean continues. You must start watching this show. What is it about Ajax that we love so much? [AjaxInTheCity]

• Honorary lesbian Pink sings her "Dear Mr. President" live in NYC, and takes one more step to becoming the best friend the gays ever had. Yeah, we've heard the rumors too, maybe they're true and maybe they're not, it doesn't matter. Just let her sing. [VirtualMatter]

• If you're going to rip on President George, make sure Jenna and Barbara aren't in the room. [Wonkette]

John Kerry planning a run in 2008, too. As much as we'd love to see his wacko wife Teresa Heinz Kerry again, we'd prefer he just donate his zillions of dollars to charity instead. Note to John: George W Bush beat you. And he SUCKS. Take the hint. [Pam'sHouseBlend]

• Speaking of George: Katherine Harris, who was pretty much responsible for his 2000 victory in Florida, and therefore the entire election, is having a pool party. Who doesn't want to see her in a swimsuit? There must be someone in northeastern Florida who can send us some pictures of that one. [Wonkette]

• The Department Of Defense has been ordered to turn over all TALON espionage documents targeting gay college students. On a related note: is it just us, or do the PageOneQ people always seem to be yelling everything on their blog? They seem very feisty. [PageOneQ]

• …and finally, Top Model recapped by our good friend Rich. Okay, it has nothing to do with politics. But it's just as important. [FourFour]

Brandon Routh makes us want to swallow. Milk, that is. Notice the bulge has been photoshopped down a bit. We may faint. [SocialiteLife]

• If posts today have been slow, we're sorry. We've been reading Letters To Marc Jacobs all day. And we thought The Manolo was random. [LTMJ]

• Our favorite lesbian Amazon superhero must hit the silver screen ASAP, if for no other reason than to repair the damage done by Halle Berry's Catwoman and Storm tragedies. [Novaslim]

Arjan interviews Keane, a.k.a. "The New Morrissey," about their new album. Keane is superb! [ArjanWrites]

Salon publishes the "Feelgood Gay Parenting Story Of The Day," about a NY Times article on gay adoption gone right in Massachusetts. If you're not registered to read the Times, just read Salon's take, it's just dandy. [Salon]

Oprah watches "Flavor Of Love." And there are clips to prove it! [PopMuse]

• The Sartorialist features pics of dapper New Yorkers out on the streets. As random as it sounds, we love it. Scroll down to the Easter pics. So, so fantastic. [TheSartorialist]

• What your sleeping positions reveal about you and your lover. Don't be freaked out if you don't like to spoon all night; it doesn't mean you're not in a good relationship. It just means you hog the covers. [FemaleFirst]

• Illinois is creeping, creeping ever so slowly down the road towards rights for gay couples. Fast or slow, we're thrilled they're making the journey at all. [Rod 2.0]

• Definition of "The Love Bucket." Gross. A.k.a, the Gayest Blog Post Ever. Also: today is Jason's birthday, leave a comment and wish him a good one. [Jason'sRoom]

• So you can't find an Amanda Lepore doll? Buy a Dyke Doll instead. There must be a lesbian somewhere who could use one as a gift, hmm? [HotHouse]

stickit_02.jpg• We saw the commercials for Stick It and we almost lit ourselves on fire, we were so excited. The writers of Bring It On are back, this time exposing the high-camp underbelly of gymnastics. We're sure it's going to be exactly the same film as Bring It On, and that's fine. It will be that much easier to memorize all the dialogue. [AppleTrailers]

• Gay TV pilots are the new black. Will any of them actually air? [AfterElton]

elton_john-1.jpg
• Go to NYC right now and buy some of Sir Elton John's clothes. The garage sale of a lifetime. [FemaleFirst]

• Mexico City Fashion Week. Did you know they even had a Fashion Week? Why does Mexico City have a Fashion Week? Click on the picture of the zombie. [ManoloMen]

• The Amanda Lepore Doll's opening gala at Jeffrey, a very nice NYC boutique. This is akin to the RuPaul Doll being sold at Saks Fifth Avenue. Or a Mary-Kate Olsen doll being sold someplace where girls actually eat. So shocking! [Dlisted]

• Get the poop on the newest infomercial. Can you imagine if this was your dad? [FourFour]

• A review of the new film Phat Girlz (after review of Kinky Boots, which is apparently terrible.) Apparently Mo'Nique needs to shave her legs. [LadyBunnyBlog]

Celine Dion may finally leave Las Vegas. And Cher is slated to take her spot. [DListed]

• The boys at Made in Brazil are absolutely beside themselves with grief over not being included in Madonna's tour schedule. Go sign their petition if you…um, want to…go see Madonna in Brazil? [MadeInBrazil]

• After her much-hyped (and rather lackluster, but since when is talent necessary?) appearance on Will & Grace, Britney Spears is teaming with the show's producers to hunt for a sitcom project of her own. [StarPulse]

153047__monique_l.jpegMo'Nique loves the gays and we love her so much too. Please go see Phat Girlz. [Rod2.0]

Madonna's tour is going to be quite the swanky affair. [WOWReport]

The United Church Of Christ is too gay even for the Logo Network. Apparently Logo feels broadcasting crap, poorly-written shows and reruns of Cher concerts is gay enough. [USNewswire]

Dressed To Kilt fashion show. With no underwear, those things must be so itchy. [OAN]

Queen Latifah is making plans to adopt children. Mmm-hmmm. We know some "confirmed bachelors" who are "roommates" with each other, and are looking to do the same thing. [FemaleFirst]

• First it was gay penguins; now the gay ducks are out romping around. Honestly, there is nothing better than a good gay bird story to cap a fun week. [TheLocal]

• Predicting American Idol winners is down to a science. [ColdHeartedTruth]

• …and you can see their betting odds here. Click on a contestant's name, and a screen will pop up with the numbers. As we write this, Pinnacle has Chris Daughtry heavily favored to win, at about 1.5 to 1; our favorite Paris Bennett is hovering at around 18 to 1; and Bucky Covington isn't looking so good, at 150 to 1. Poor Bucky. [OddsChecker]

button.jpegSwitch, a new web-based show, teaches hi-tech (is it "hi-tech" or "high-tech"?) design lessons for girls. Which means mostly gay guys will watch it. Learn how to make talking picture frames, electronic pillows, all sorts of fun stuff. Diana Eng from Project Runway ("My dress' magnets keep reversing polarity!") co-hosts the first episode. We're nervous about tuning in, we might be silly enough to try one of the projects and blow ourselves up. [Switch]

• We'll never look at our toothbrushes the same. [MySecretiveLife]

Rosie O'Donnell dishes Naomi Campbell on The Tonight Show. We think it's time for Rosie to come back in style, we love her and she's been away for long enough. [FishDrinkWater]

Sex In The Same City lands on Choire's desk, and he's stoked about the hot girl-on-girl action. But then he's disappointed to learn it's really about real-life lesbians. [DailyTransom} via [Jossip]

The Mirror Boiyz, gay hip-hopsters, take on 50 Cent. How does "gay hip-hop" work, anyway? Well…you judge for yourself. [ArjanWrites]

• Erasure's Andy Bell on his GLAAD Awards performance, his new song, and hip replacement surgery. Damn, we're getting old. [AfterElton]

*Skreeve is British gay slang for "writing." If Madonna can become British overnight, then so can we.

cowboys1.jpegcowboys4.jpeg
Willie Nelson's instant camp-classic video "Cowboys Are Frequently Secretly (Fond Of Each Other)." It's no secret we love Willie Nelson so so much. [The Malcontent]

• It looks like The Manolo's new-ish blog Manolo For The Men is finally in full swing. We'll have to keep our eyes on that one. [ManoloMen]

• Speaking of male gorgeousness: new skin care line for the mens of color. [Rod 2.0]

• And some unapologetic pictures of Andy Roddick. [SocialiteLife]

• The first all-gay theme park to open in Malaysia. We picture little fairies and evil queens running around everywhere. Which whould make it look a lot like our offices here at Queerty. [PAYOR]

• …that reminds us, Gay Days at Disney World is coming up–and honestly, the best pictures are on the StopGayDays.com site. We'd like to thank them for doing such good work! Very sexy, and Not Safe For Work.

*"Skreeve" is gay slang for "writing." If Madonna can become British overnight, than so can we.

• Our friend Tony got his hands on a coveted ticket to the final taping of Will & Grace. [MrNightlife]

• …and that reminds us, we should start watching the show again. We missed Britney Spears last night. [People]

people_janice_dickinson_216.jpeg

• The Naomi Campbell cell phone attack bubbles over with controversy! She says it's the maid's fault! How we wish we were there to live out the drama in person. If only she'd throw a phone at us. So glamorous. [StarPulse]

• The Janice Dickinson Modeling Agency is having an open call tomorrow (Saturday) in Los Angeles, at Hollywood & Highland. Piss her off, let her yell at you, and you might get edited in to the footage of her upcoming reality show on Oxygen. [WorldOfWonder]

amanda lepore 1.jpeg
• The Amanda Lepore doll is harder to get than the Tickle Me Elmo at Christmastime. We're devastated that we don't have one. [M.O.] (Not Safe For Work…we think, although we're not sure if the pic is of her or a doll)

• "She's A Bitch" video spectacular. Lots of naughty words, so if you play it at work, make sure the volume is reeeeeally low. [FilmExperience]

Naomi Campbell arrested for abusing yet another assistant. And we're not ashamed to admit we'd like to apply for the job. Getting beat up by Naomi Campbell sounds fantastic. [Dlisted]

Busta Rhymes freaks out on a gay fan. And DMX helps write Busta's new gay-hating lyrics. Gross. [Rod 2.0]

• Auditions for Above The Line: The Search For America's Next Music Video Director. Ever notice how the more insignificant the contests become, the longer their titles? [Jossip]
