Red Carpet Munchers

WATCH: Queerty Crashes the GLAAD Awards with Kim Cattrall, Naya Rivera, Mario Lopez, Tabatha Coffey, Ben Cohen, Yigit Pura & Dustin Lance Black!

We might have gotten all dressed up for the GLAAD Media Awards in San Francisco, but our renegade spirit was in full force. Kim Cattrall’s blowjob tips? Ben Cohen’s locker room close calls? Dustin Lance Black‘s rumored bed fetish? We asked all the tough questions on the red carpet. The only person that got away was Nelsan Ellis (True Blood‘s Lafayette). What gives, hookah?!

Before receiving the Golden Gate Award for her outspoken support of the LGBT community, Sex and the City‘s Samantha Jones… whoops, we mean Kim Cattrall spoke to us about her new film, Meet Monica Velour, where she plays a washed-up porn star/stripper. If you were wondering, the role is a great departure from her role in 1987’s Mannequin where she played a mannequin.
