LiLo reportedly fights for her laydee

Lindsay Lohan's tumultuous relationship with Samantha Ronson is back in the headlines again after a screaming match erupted between Lohan and Ashley Olsen over the lesbian DJ in New York this weekend. According to reports, Lohan began screaming at Olsen after the Full House star said hello to Ronson, telling the Olsen twin to get away from her "girlfriend".   

The incident between the two young actresses reportedly occurred at the Beatrice Inn on Friday evening in New York City. According to the New York Post's Page Six, Ashley Olsen walked up to Ronson and said hello. Lohan, who has been romantically linked to the lesbian DJ, screamed at Olsen to "get your 15 year-old Full House ass away from my girlfriend!"   

The following evening, Lohan and Ronson arrived together at the Hawaiian Tropic Zone club in New York just before midnight, according to People.com. Ronson was working the DJ booth at the club while Lohan hung out at a nearby table with friends. According to unidentified sources, Lohan was spotted drinking Grey Goose and Red Bull cocktails. Lohan has been struggling to remain clean and sober since an extended stay in a rehab facility for alcoholism last year following two DUI arrests and a brief incarceration in jail.

Lohan was videotaped in January drinking champagne while on vacation in Capri, Italy. Her lawyer at the time claimed the incident was an accident. "After being handed a champagne bottle while on a dance floor in Italy on New Year's Eve and drinking from it, the good news is that Lindsay stopped herself, called her sponsor and got herself back on track," Blair Berk told People. "There is no magic cure here. The most unfortunate part of this is that Lindsay has to share her 'one day at a time' with the entire world."

Lesbian gossip from Los Angeles!

For the girl with little or too much time on her hands, here’s the quickie lowdown on what’s hot in lesbian and cute-girl related pop culture. From Hollywood’s latest big-screen releases to television water cooler gossip, music, DVD releases and fashion and consumer culture, Meow Mix is a catty corner serving up the latest dish.

 

Visual Pleasure on the Big Screen:

Baby Mama   

Hot nerd for the new millennium, Tina Fey, joins forces with her pal and Saturday Night Live alum, the unapologetically hilarious fool, Amy Poehler, in Baby Mama. A silly female-driven comedy—the likes of which haven’t been seen since the shlubby fat-boy gets the hot girl phenomenon overtook American comedy, Fey and Poehler play the estrogen card just right.

 

Sadly, writer extraordinaire Fey’s scribe skills aren’t work here. She just stepped into her acting shoes this time out, playing a woman whose biological clock is about to explode. Enter Poehler as a frightening, if not endearing, surrogate who becomes a live-in baby mama.

 

 

 

Throw in the ever-watchable Maura Tierney and hot cougar Sigourney Weaver and the eye candy alone makes it worth the price of admission.

Four Minutes

For serious cinephiles, check out the acclaimed German film, Four Minutes. Prison, piano music, a lesbian love story… this pristinely shot film has it all. Aging piano teacher Traude, who lost the love of her life to execution in WWII, is reinvigorated mentoring a young female piano prodigy, who also happens to be a full-on bad girl imprisoned for murder.

 

 

 

Haunting and hopeful, Four Minutes transcends age to deliver a powerful meditation on female relationships.

 

On the Small Screen:

 

A big fat WTF? Is in order for this season of American Idol. Tattooed, bad-assed Irish Lassy Carly Smithson received the proverbial steel-toed Doc Marten boot up the ass this week following her blistering hot rendition of Andrew Lloyd Weber’s "Jesus Christ Superstar".

Illustrating that tween girls and gay tween boys comprise the bulk of AI’s constituency, Carly’s fiery performance lost out to cringe-inducing light-in-the-loafers ballads by cupie-doll David Archuleta and overgrown Jim Henson creation, Jason Castro.

Even the show’s guest star, Lloyd Weber, commented that he never thought he’d hear Phantom of the Opera’s “Think of Me” and Cats’ showstopper “Memory,” “sung by boys.” Typically, I’m all for boys singing like girls and vice versa but when the one AI contestant hot, talented and mature enough for the average gay gal to lust over gets kicked to the curb, the gloves come off.

 

 

But at the end of the day, I blame that tart Simon Cowell and the AI machine for skewering Carly week after week— kind of like what the left-wing media has done to Hillary Clinton.

And here’s why…. If it’s not merely and old Irish / English feud between Simon and Carly then Simon’s steering the dumbass American public into voting for the only girl who could have taken this year’s cake. Four out of six Idols have been women and the two men who won are already relegated to the dustbin of pop-schlock culture. It's time for a boy to win to keep tween girls and gay boys watching. And Carly's the only girl who had a snowball's chance in hell of making it to the top this year. There I said it. Next week I'll tackle JFK and the grassy knoll theory.

 

Aural Stimulation:

 

Empress of Lillith Fair and Mistress of the ethereal vocal range, Sarah McLachlan releases yet another collection of her greatest performances-plus with Rarities, B-Sides and Other Stuff Volume 2, due out on April 29. And if anyone can put out another compilation / live record, it’s Sarah, who never fails to deliver a breath-taking performance.

Highlights on the new release include McLachlan teaming up with spritely songstress Cyndi Lauper on Lauper’s most covered tune of all time, “Time after Time.” Despite the countless renditions of the classic, McLachlan and Lauper’s voices silkily intertwine making the song as fresh as its original 1984 release.

Another gay gal pleasing moment is McLachlan and thef legendary Emmy Lou Harris taking on the mega-hit, “Angel.” Other hot duets include Bryan Adams joining McLachlan on “Don’t Let Go,” and, rather shockingly, Run DMC joining her on “Just Like Me.”

 

 

Not surprisingly McLachlan firmly plants her soaring vocal stamp on modern classics including The Beatles’ “Blackbird,” Paul Simon’s “Homeless” with Ladysmith Black Mambazo, “Rainbow Connection” and “Unchained Melody.”

But the single-most titillating moment on McLachlan’s new release, especially for the girls, is her obvious and adamant refusal to change up pro-nouns on the pining ballad “When She Loved Me.”

What to Wear:

Dame Dolly Parton, purveyor of big wigs, bigger boobs and haute couture trailer park chic has announced she’s churning out her own line of beauty products.

I want my own cosmetics line. When I first came [to Nashville] I really was the backwoods Barbie. Too much makeup, too much hair, the big boobs, country girl straight out of the mountains. It’s hard to take somebody looking like that serious, I guess, so I had to work double hard to prove myself,” Parton told Billboard Magazine.

 

 

A cultural icon worthy of her own theme park, Dollywood, it’s about damned time Parton shared some Smoky Mountain blue eyeliner with the rest of the world!

 

Check back next Friday for more "Meow Mix"!

Joss Stone's steamy same-sex kiss!

Just when we were starting to recover from her bizarre ramblings at last years Brit Awards, Joss Stone says she's out to shock us again.

The 20-year old singer has just landed her first major movie role playing a lesbian holiday park entertainer.

The part in quirky British comedy Snappers will apparently see her character indulging in a "long, lingering French kiss" with another woman.

The star is sure that the new project will surprise some of her fans, commenting: "There are things that are going to really push the boundaries - I'm excited!"

Let's just hope that her performance is slightly less irritating than her recent turn in the Cadbury's Flake adverts!

Lesbian gossip from LA!

Let's keep our fingers crossed she's a baby dyke, Juno's Ellen Page teased the trendy True Religion jeans and retro-print t-shirts right off legions of Lesbos on Saturday Night Live this week.   

Too clever to actually cop to any actual girl on girl, Ellen bid a fond flip of the bird to the likes of the Village Voice's gossip monger extraordinaire Michael Musto, who recently opined about Ellen in his column, "Is she or isn't she?" The cutest, smartest actress to dissemble about her bedroom proclivities since one Ms. Jodie Foster, Ellen's fluid sexuality worked Musto into a good ole gay boy froth.   

"I mean, come on already, is she??? You know, Lebanese! She certainly dresses like a, you know, tomboy," Musto wrote.   

And this week, Little "E'"—Ellen Degeneres is "The Big E"—responded to the rumors on Saturday Night Live with a hilarious riff on what the masses consider all things Lesbo. For the skit, Ellen's thinly-veiled SNL alter ego returned home to her boyfriend—Andy Samberg—all butched out following an illuminating night at a Melissa Etheridge concert. Just to hear eat-her-with-a-spoon adorable Ellen utter the words, "Indigo Girls, Closer I am to Fine, great big lezzy jam and athletic girls in tank tops," was enough to send budding gay girls and dyed-in-the-wool dykes alike into fits of longing.

But the proverbial icing on Ellen's cake was when she dropped to her back with her legs in the air and queried, "Why does everything have to have a label? Why can't I just hug a woman with my legs in friendship if I want?"

Following up on Tina Fey's SNL mantra for Hillary—Seven Sisters—Clinton that "Bitch is the new black", Tina's erstwhile partner in crime, Amy Poehler, donned her Hillary drag for a skit that eviscerated the Democratic debate process in which Darryl Hammond, impersonating Tim Russert, interrogated Hillary while tossing Nerf balls at Barack—one minute I'm welcoming an anti-gay activist and gospel singer to my campaign and the next I'm sending Valentine's to the queer community—Obama.   

The real Hillary turned up with an "editorial response," and parried with her twin, Poehler. When little Amy asked, "How's the campaign going?" Hills responded with a very funny faux mélange of self-confidence and paranoia. "It's going great. Great. Why what have you heard?"

With support from Madonna, Barbra Streisand, Cher and Tina Fey, Hillary—it's small wonder her initials are HRC—has got the queer vote sewn up. But I'm not holding my breath for card carrying Texan and Ohioan homos to tip the scales away from her rival.

However, Jack Nicholson has thrown his support behind Hills with a video endorsement of famous Jack lines edited from his films.
   

Oddly there's no ax wielding, "Here's Johnny," in the mix.   

With the gay vote and now the pervy old man demographic behind her, she might just pull it out of the bag—or at least she'll be able to open a porn shop.

Nice girl Natalie Portman publicly objectified her on-screen sister—and by sister I don't mean the kind you find romping in the nude at the Michigan Women's Festival.

 

 

 

On the subject of her The Other Boleyn Girl, corset-clad co-star Scarlett Johansson, Nat said, "I would really want to grab Scarlett's breasts. She's got beautiful ones." Touché Natalie….touché. It doesn't take a Harvard grad to figure that out.

The student of gay girl action in Cruel Intentions, raven-haired Selma Blair, has become the teacher. She's signed on to play it gay on the big screen in Driving Lessons.

 

Selma's slated to play a "sarcastic lesbian schoolteacher" who gets down and dirty with a female student, played by Californication's Madeline Zima.

 

I can see it now, in a Notes on a Scandal-esque backlash, the politically correct among us will skewer the film on the basis that it makes all Lesbos look like predators, while privately drooling over the match-up.

Let's hope Selma gets a filthy tagline similar to her "f*** me…" in Todd Solondz's button pushing Storytelling.

Edgy teen star turned loopy shoplifter Winona Ryder's decided to tie the knot with Rilo Kiley guitarist Blake Sennett.   

Perennial groupie and erstwhile slut, the gal who won our hearts with Heathers, has dated Johnny—Wino Forever—Depp, Matt Damon, Adam Duritz, Dave Grohl and others… many others.   

Congrats to Winona and Blake, but it's a tad bittersweet when a tried and true pill-popping kleptomaniac with a slutty edge settles down.

Like the famous blackout that spawned the Baby Boom generation, everyone was getting laid on The L Word this week... except there wont' be much baby-making going on there. A heat wave and rolling blackouts made the L Word ladies—and Max—mucho horny.   

Locked in an elevator, Bette continued to do what she does best and cheat on her partner Jodi—albeit with her ostensible "lobster" for life, Tina.

Shane scratched her straight-girl itch with Molly and Max got it on with a boy… P.S.—if anyone knows where to get a t-shirt like the one Shane was wearing that was emblazoned with the names of my fave director Michelangelo Antonioni's films, this trendy little film history nerd would be eternally indebted.   

Life imitated art this weekend when Lesbian Turkish Oil Wrestling became a palpable reality—at least for the greased up girls in the ring.

That's right. OurChart.com teamed up with West Hollywood promoter Linda Fusco and Fuse events to allow Weho women to objectify and ogle slippery women. The L Word's breakout star of the season, Elizabeth Keener, was on hand to do her best Dawn Denbo and play ringmaster. Sadly, "lover Cindy" was nowhere in sight.   

Joining cutie-pie Keener was Clementine Ford, Cybill Shepherd's real daughter and Molly on the show, and the genius who directed the oil-wrestling episode, Angela Robinson.   

A perfectly wholesome evening of boozing and ogling half-naked chicks in a crammed, sweat-soaked environment, was had by all.   

Check out babe Bridget McManus, the next big thing in lesbian comics on AfterEllen.com's weekly "Brunch with Bridget," in which a P.J.-clad and bed-bound Bridget rubs elbows and pillow fights with lesbian luminaries.

This week's episode features Bridget and my friend, the very funny Andrea Meyerson, Laughing Matters series director and founder of the wildly successful lesbian outings—not outing—group, Women On A Roll. After this Vlog, gay girls nationwide will want to pillow fight—or pillow bite—with funny girl Bridget.

Spain's deputy PM not a lesbian

Just in case you were wondering, the deputy prime minister of Spain is definitely not a lesbian.

But for the record, she does seem rather pleased with the question, flushing to El Mundo that: "At last someone has asked me."

There were internet rumours doing the rounds last week that she'd shacked up with a television sports presenter, but  - deep breath - Maria Teresa Fernandez de la Vega - says it just ain't so.

Apparently, her mum keeps on trying to marry her off for ages, but happiness for her is "being alone on her sofa, with a little music, without having to listen to anybody, and with the phone not ringing."

The UK doesn't have a deputy PM anymore, but fear not: We're still trying to dig up something saucy about the last one - John Prescott. When we get there, you'll be the first to know.

Blair takes on lesbian teacher role

Cruel Intentions star Selma Blair is in final negotiations to play a lesbian high school teacher romantically involved with a student in the black comedy Driving Lessons.

Madeline Zima, who plays David Duchovny's underage fling in Showtime's Californication, has enrolled as Blair's love interest.

Blair famously shared an on-screen kiss with Sarah Michelle Gellar in Cruel Intentions, winning an MTV award for best kiss.

Driving Lessons revolves around a woman (Hope Davis) given a second shot at her unhappy marriage after losing her memory.

It conveniently helps her forget an interracial affair with her burly neighbour Simon (Chi McBride).

Dermot Mulroney plays her husband, and Max Thieriot her religious, right-wing son.

Gyllenhaal's cheeky lesbian ad supports writers

She wowed the sisters with her performance in the film Secretary, and now top actress (and sister of Jake) Maggie Gyllenhaal has shown her support for the striking screen writers of America.

In a short but sweet movie, Mags and two other girls arrive at a hotel room, only to discover they are all dating the same man.

The man in question, cheekily called Ampitepa" (Alliance of Motion Picture & TV Producers) has stood them all up.

So the ladies decide that “they dont need him after all” and get intimate on the bed.

Paris Hilton samples LA lesbian nightlife

Heiress Paris Hilton has been spotted at LA lesbian bar Falcon for the second time this month.

As she bar-hopped her way along the Sunset Boulevard, she was snappped emerging from Falcon, hand-in-hand with US reality star Brittny Gastineau and a gaggle of female friends.

Hilton also hit the venue three weeks ago for the Hollywood premiere of the fifth season of lesbian series The L Word.

That night, onlookers reportedly spotted the star keeping close company with the show's star Katherine Moennig, with one party goer observing:

"Paris and Kate were here holding hands."

Thrilling stuff.

Lesbian watch: Denise Van Outen

Denise Van Outen, who is dating Any Dream Will Do winner Lee Meed, says that she thinks women make better kissers than men because they lack stuble.

But she will disappoint some girls, she says she isn't a lesbian.

Van Outen who kissed a woman as part of her portrayal of Maureen in the musical rent, is quoted on MonstersandCritics as saying: "I played Maureen the bisexual so I got to kiss girls and run around on stage grabbing t**s. A whole new experience for me.

"Kissing girls is much softer. You don't get all that stubbly chin thing. T**s are not doing it for me though. People are always shocked because they expect me to be really naughty, but I've never fancied a woman and it has just reconfirmed to me that I only love boys."

Lesbian gossip from La La Land.

Will the writers’ strike smash the celebrity oglers dreams of a Cate Blanchett / Angelina Jolie celebratory kiss at the Golden Globes?

Did Posh Spice pull a Showgirls on Baby Spice? Legendary Liza takes a holiday tumble off a Swedish stage, Paula Abdul has an APB out for some missing urine.

Hillary Swank, Lisa Kudrow and Gina Gershon romp around as BFF’s and adorable Ellen Page gets knocked up.   

 

 

 

 

 

If nobody’s there to fondle the Golden Globes, will they even bother to put on a show? The Hollywood Foreign Press—whatever the f*** that really is—has announced the slew of oddball nominees for its annual celebrity pat yourself on the back throwdown and Oscar precursor.

While the Golden Globes, which melds television and film personalities in a more laidback and boozy setting than the Academy Awards, has become the second High Holy Day of the year for this celebrity gawker, but the blasted writers’ strike promises to muck up the awards.

A few anti-scab celebs who possess strange qualities called honour and integrity have vowed not to cross the picket line, over the backs of the geek squad—the writers—to get to their awards.

Among these goody-two shoes celebs is the inimitable Ms. Glenn Close, nominated for a Best Performance by an Actress in a Television Series-Drama (that’s a mouthful) for her butch turn as take-no-prisoners attorney Patty Hewes on the lesbo-centric Damages. Damn her scruples!   

   

A hodge-podge of stars landed nods this year including some gay gal goddesses.

With the writers on strike and the show’s content sure to suck, I say the nominees join the L Word gang and engage in Turkish Oil Wrestling to determine the winner. Everybody wins!   

Imagine Best Performance by an Actress in a Motion Picture-Drama—whew—nominees, Empress Angelina Jolie of the Holy Order of Hot Lips for A Mighty Heart, Queen Cate Blanchett for The Golden Age, Lesbian Vigilante Jodie Foster for The Brave One and stunning stick figure Keira Knightley for Atonement, topless and oiled up vying for their awards.

Dame Julie Christie is also nominated for her turn in Away From Her, but at Julie’s age, she’s safer playing the ring girl.

While Jodie and her truckers drawl v. bad-assed Angelina seems like the ultimate match-up, Keira might just Bend it Like Beckham and pull a surprise win on this one.   

Comedic and Musical Queens of the Red Carpet will include film fest darling Amy Adams for Enchanted, little newcomer Nikki Blonski as the big-screen Tracy Turnblad in Hairspray, Merchant Ivory darling gone awry Helena Bonham Carter for Sweeney Todd, Marion Cotillard for her uncanny Edith Piaf in La Vie en Rose and baby—not sure if she’s a dyke but she’s damned cute—Ellen Page for Juno.   

   

Other possible oil wrestling match-ups include the Best Performance / Television-Drama gang that pits Patricia Arquette for Medium, Glenn Close, Minnie Driver for The Riches, Edie Falco for The Sopranos, Sally Field for Brothers and Sisters, Holly Hunter for Saving Grace and Krya Sedgwick for The Closer, against one another.

Looking very much like an Emmy’s redux—and I can’t recall who won the Emmy.

Probably a yawn, Grey’s yawn Anatomy, yawn boring broad.

Fingers crossed for Ms. Minnie on this one. But the nominated babes alone constitute a win. In a town like Hollywood where the women are put out to pasture at 35, this category rife with sexy older women and MILFs alike.

Funny ladies who garnered nods from the Foreign Press include the hottest MILF on the block Mary Louise Parker in Weeds, hot nerds America Ferrara for Ugly Betty and Tina Fey for 30 Rock, the cat with nine lives Christina Applegate for her smash hit Samantha Who? and Anna Friel for the darkly comic Pushing Daisies.   

Look for more red carpet eye candy and estrogen heavy hitters in the Best Supporting / Motion Picture category with Big Mouthed Beauty Julia Roberts for Charlie Wilson’s War, Queen Cate for her Bob Dylan drag in I’m Not There and the frighteningly smart ice queen Tilda Swinton for Michael Clayton.   

 

This writers’ strike pits my morals against my pervy, celebrity-obsessed side.

Come on scribes, buck up so that we writers who live vicariously through celebrity can leeringly watch for the accidental Angie / Cate brush-up against one another on the red carpet… or the Sally Field buzzed on Veuve Clicquot solipsistic “you like me, you really like me speech!”  

In a moment not unlike the cult classic, Showgirls’ climactic turn when slutty, climber of a showgirl tosses marbles at Gina Gershon’s rabid bi-sexual bitch diva Crystal Connors in hopes of landing the Vegas review’s top slot, Posh Spice threw a wad of David Beckham’s spat-out chewing gum at Emma “Baby Spice” Bunton, causing Baby Bunton to take a spill that landed her on crutches.

Not exactly, but still, Baby Spice is laid up—and not in a good way—which promises to put a kink in the Spice Broads—uh, Girls—UK leg of their comeback tour. Stretch Girls, stretch… you’re not spring chickens—or birds as the Brits say—anymore.

   

At the end of the day, Baby’s prognosis is good and she’ll be outshining Poser Posh again in no time.   

In other stage tumbling news, the Legend, The Lush, The Liza took a nasty little spill off a stage during a performance in Sweden last week.

Poor Liza slurred her way through a painful rendition of her mama Judy Garland’s other signature song, “The Man I Love”, before tumbling off the stage into the arms of a hapless technician.   

Liza, who’s purportedly 12-stepping it clean and sober, says she felt dizzy before the performance—which smacked of some of Judy’s more painful public moments— but reports are that Liza’s on everything from anti-depressants to Oxy to kill her decades of pain.

“Maybe This Time” Liza will get luck and pull through because you know, “Life is a Cabaret” for the old gal.

All snark aside, pull through Liza. From and old-school pseudo-gay man like me, after you, Bette and Barbara, we’ll be stuck with Britney and bemoaning where have all the great entertainers gone?   

Empress Madonna of the Holy Order of Virgin Facsimiles—or “Like a Virgin—who’s a true performer and always a pleasure to watch, has landed herself a slot in The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

It just goes to show you that in rock and roll you can defile a wedding dress and numerous crucifixes, conflagrate Jesus and piss off the Catholics by portraying him as black, make out with Sandra Bernhardt and release a soft-core porn sex book. Good on Madge!   

In the stranger things have happened category, American Idol’s resident pharmaceutical receptacle, Paula Abdul, is missing some piss. Seriously, Abdul—because she hasn’t made enough of an ass out of herself on American Idol each season—admitted that a crazed fan once filched Paula’s urine sample from the doctors’ office. Look for that stuff on eBay any day now!

Here’s a quick and dirty year-end movie round up:   

 

Cutie Pie Ellen Page garners critical raves as a knocked up—and not the Katherine Heigl kind of yawn-inducing knocked up—teen in the indie flick Juno, which also stars that other big mouthed beauty, Jennifer Garner.

Little Ellen’s a smarty pants who takes herself seriously, and who says she feels sorry for the likes of the Britney’s and Lindsay’s.

Really, Ellen’s just trying to say she feels for those gals with IQ’s lower than 90, who somehow find themselves in the limelight.

A baby butch Ellen played a real castrating vigilante who whacks off Patrick Wilson—as a pedophile’s—nuts in the post-feminist shocker Hard Candy, but look for more of her in the lesbian werewolf flick Jack and Diane, co-starring Olivia Thirlby.   

The films synopses reads like this, “Jack (Thirlby) and Diane (Page), two teenage lesbians, meet in New York City and spend the night kissing ferociously. Diane's charming innocence quickly begins to open Jack's tough skinned heart. But, when Jack discovers that Diane is leaving the country in a week she tries to push her away.

Diane must struggle to keep their love alive while hiding the secret that her newly awakened sexual desire occasionally turns her into a werewolf.” –That sounds like every date I had in high school.

It’s great to see everyone’s favorite mumbler Jennifer Jason Leigh back in action in Margot at the Wedding, even if she pulled the short straw of playing Jack Black’s wife.

The film stars Nicole Kidman, but Leigh’s worth the price of admission. Written and directed by the Squid and the Whale’s Noah Baumbach, look for loads of latent pseudo-sensitive poor-me male discovery and insight.   

It’s been too long since Claire Fisher road into the sunset in the Six Feet Under series finale but never fear, sexy and smart Lauren Ambrose stars in Starting out in the Evening with Six Feet Under co-star and indie queen Lily Taylor.

Also appearing is Jessica Hecht, the cracker-jack actress who played Susan, Ross’s lesbian nemesis on Friends.   

Hillary Swank, Lisa Kudrow and Gina Gershon play BFF’s in the romantic comedy P.S. I Love You, which also stars Gerard Butler and Kathy Bates.

If Hillary Swank has learned anything from her career trajectory, she should steer clear from any role that doesn’t involve lopping off her hair and packing a tube sock, or packing the punches in an over-the-top melodrama co-starring Morgan Freeman as a wise and haggard old man.

Paris' lesbian sex tape threat

 

Paris Hilton better watch out.

If The Simple Life star doesn't start treating Britney Spears better, the 'Gimme More' singer may just add another sex tape to her resume.

 

According to PerezHilton.com (by way of the Daily Mail), Spears recently sent a missive to her former gal pal saying she'd leak footage of Hilton in a compromising position with another woman if Hilton doesn’t stop being rude to Spears and her entourage.

 

How did Hilton respond? A source close to the socialite told the Mail that she laughed and "said it was crap."

 

"It's obvious Britney and her bratty pals are being silly," the source said.

 

It wouldn’t be the first time a sex tape involving Hilton hit the World Wide Web.

A video shot by ex-boyfriend (and current husband of Pamela Anderson) Rick Solomon was leaked in 2004 and went on to win a number of AVN (Adult Video News) Awards in 2005.

Another actress, another lesbian crush

What is it with these girls all wanting to sleep with some girl or another?

The latest is 18 year old Heroes star Hayden Panettiere. According to American GQ, she wants to sleep with Angelina Jolie.

"Well, if you want to make me a lesbian, that's totally fine with me. That would be a pretty funny rumour. I'd love to have a love affair with Angelina,” she said.

Panettiere, who is 14 years junior of Mrs Pitt, also claimed, "and there are other beautiful girls I like too - Charlize Theron, oh my God! Kate Beckinsale is gorgeous too, and Jessica Alba.”

We have enough problem dealing with working out if someone is a heterosexual in the first place without all these “I'm not gay but..” people coming into the picture.

Jungle celeb's lesbian love scene

“I'm a Celebrity, Give Me Attention” contestant Gemma Atkinson has revealed her role in a “sexy” lesbian romp...for a film she is taking part in.

The 22-year-old former Hollyoaks actress did say however that it took a few shots of vodka before she felt full prepared for the scene in London based movie Boogie Woogie.

"I had to do a scene with Jaime Winstone. A full-on lesbian scene.” She told her fellow jungle enthusiasts. 

"I was more... well not relaxed ....but more comfortable doing it with Jaime because she's straight."

Panto dame Christopher Biggins asked her if she had to strip naked to which she said,"I asked to keep my bottoms on and the director let me - so that was cool. When it came to the kissing, he [the director] basically said: 'I just want you to go for it because the more you do it the more happy it's going to be”

Shocker that. A straight man asking her to “go for it” with another woman. The director will soon say that he picked her for acting ability.

Oh we are cruel. Only joking Gemma, we are sure you are a great actress and its got nothing to do with your huge bristols.

Check out her website - its hilarious!

Portia didn't enjoy lesbian sex scene

Ellen Degeneres' girlfriend, actress Portia De Rossi, has revealed that she wasn't having the time of her life making out with Joely Richardson on the set of plastic surgery-themed TV show Nip/Tuck

The openly gay star said:

"I hate gratuitous sex scenes. I’m a prude, I really am. I related to Joely’s character so much more than my own.

"She was having a really hard time with her sexuality, and it was difficult for her to tell people she was gay. To hear her struggle like that was very emotional for me."

Meanwhile 42-year-old British actress Joely enjoyed the whole thing:

"I have no problems kissing women," she said. 

"It’s not the first time I have done lesbian scenes. I have heard Ellen was jealous. She has been on set. She is great and Portia is lovely. Please don’t think there is anything going on between us."

Lesbian gamers site launched

A new site has hit the web:



The tagline for the site is: “Lesbian Gamers.com - because sometimes we use our hands for other things.”

A spokeswoman for the site told us:

“There was no strictly lesbian gaming site online with such directness as lesbiangamers.com and we think it's going to be a huge success.

“It'll also welcome contributions from lesbian gamers and hopes to encourage discussion and friendship within our community. It's really important for us as lesbian gamers to have somewhere safe and fun to hang out.”

The site home page says: “If you're a lesbian gamer, or indeed interested in lesbian gamers (tut tut) you'll find all your video gaming news, with a little touch of dyke right here.

"If you're a grrl who loves video games, whilst also loving the ladies, you've just found the right place on the net.”

Alicia Keys admits she was rough

R&B superstar Alicia Keys has said she knows why people thought she was a lesbian at the beginning of her career - because she was "rough around the edges."

Keys’ sexuality became the subject of speculation after the release of her debut album songs in A minor in 2001.

However, the singer has been adamant she isn't a lesbian but has said that her appearance and attitude may have led people to think so.

"I was definitely rough around the edges. I look back at certain interviews and I'm like, 'Damn! Did I have to look that hard? Did I have to do my hair that way?" The Sun quoted Keys as saying.

"I could see why people couldn't see the diamond in the rough.

"I didn't take it to heart. I know what I am. I know it's not true," she added.

Ellen, Angelina, Pink and more!

Breaking News: Ellen Degeneres prefers pussy! Courteney Cox and Jennifer Anniston’s hood is on fire.

W Magazine makes Angelina Jolie and Jen Anniston do cover girl battle—but we'd really rather see them naked in the ring. Pretty Pink could soon be on the prowl thanks to her hubby’s cheating heart—and the girls welcome her with open arms. And, Naomi Watts goes to The Birds, in an ill-conceived remake, that is.

Scratching an itch to state the blatantly obvious, Ellen prefers pussy! Now that the “Save Iggy” campaign to wrest the pup from his fate at the hands of the high-strung, nefarious, whacked out, Mutts and Moms animal rescue agency, has failed miserably, it’s refreshing to note that Ellen’s reconfirmed her commitment to kitty and tossed another yippy pup on its ear in favor of her feline friends.

In this Post-Iggy world, no longer will playwright David Mamet’s assertion in State and Main that something is as tight as “dykes and dogs,” hold true, since Degeneres, the biggest dyke on the block, kicked her dog to her hairdresser’s curb. And since when does anyone in Hollywood have a hairdresser and not a stylist? That’s so southern, curlers in the hair at the supermarket, Steel Magnolias of Ellen to call Cheryl Marks, Iggy’s interim mom, a mere “hairdresser”.   

For anyone who’s been virtually headless while Ellen’s breaking down on national television / puppy scandal made headlines on Fox News, CNN and even NPR, Ellen and her live-in lady Portia de Rossi adopted a pooch from a pair of hardcore animal rescue nut jobs with the enviable moniker Mutts and Moms. When little Iggy didn’t get along with Ellen and Portia’s pussy’s, Ellen bypassed an adoption agency policy and gave the dog directly to her hairdresser and her adolescent girls. (Read more on the story here.) 

The Mutts and Moms Gestapo went in to the hairdresser’s home flanked by police and yanked the poor pooch from the home it had grown to love… and then came Ellen’s impassioned on-air plea to give Iggy back to the family that had bonded with him. Bravo to Ellen for causing a ruckus as big as anything Big Rosie O’Donnell pulled on last season’s The View. Now the world thinks we lezzies are a big ole bunch of over-the-top, emotional, cry-babies—even if it is just a little bit true.

It was bound to happen. The seventh plague of Egypt has rained down on Malibu’s debaucherous, opulent shores—home to many a millionaire celeb. While Southern California’s wild fires are truly frightening, the more bible-thumping among us might say the fires, which have jumped from the beach in Malibu over the famed Pacific Coast Highway, are retribution for Hollywood’s sins. But hell, it’s really just a good ole global warming-induced drought in action.

Among the celebs whose homes are fanning the Malibu blaze, are Olivia Newton John, Mel Gibson and Britney Spears. Also, Brit’s and Lindsay Lohan’s ole spa—uh rehab—Promises, is in the line of fire. Other than sweetie-pie Olivia’s house in the mix, there might be a pattern here. Either Mel guzzled a pint of tequila and lit the fire with his breath or Brit accidentally tossed her hand-rolled cig out the car window while she was tossing her empty Frappuccino cup. Cuz, you just know Brit’s the littering kind y’all.

Meanwhile, BFF’s Courteney Cox and Jennifer Anniston also own Malibu homes. They have some sort of Game of Clue-like secret passageway to each other’s bedrooms. But really, if Courteney and Jen find themselves scrambling for cover, there are plenty of West Hollywood Lesbos who’ll gladly share their beds. And just to illustrate the Weho lesbians’ munificence, David Arquette can couch surf and we’ll find a nice British nanny for baby Coco.   

Like Elizabeth Taylor and Debbie Reynolds before them Empress Angelina Jolie and girl-next-door Jen Anniston have become poster girls for the brunette v. blonde, man in the middle media obsession that just won’t die. W Magazine has devised a plan to fan the flames of the three-way that never was—but would have been nice.

For it’s November issue, W is putting out two covers, one with Angelina of the Holy Order of Pornographically Hot Lips, and one with Jen of the Holy Order of Bangin’ Ass in a Bikini. Fans and pervs alike can pick the cover girl of their choice. I’ve maintained that since Brad Pitt and Angie combusted upon meeting on the set of Mr. and Mrs. Smith, Brad should have just called Jennifer and said, “Honey, I’m bringing Angie home for a Ménage.” And that might have been the end of it. If the Angie v. Jen cover girl thing doesn’t solve the media’s obsession, I’m gunning for Jen and Ange to duke it out on a greased up rubber sheet.

Here’s this week’s down and dirty: Another in a long line of post-modern Broadway musicals of a musical based on a film, based on a true story that will be turned into a musical film with a soundtrack and no one will remember where the story was originally created. Talks are in the works for a musical version of the Nicole Kidman vehicle, To Die For, the Gus Van Sant opus that was loosely pulled from hot-ass Pamela Smart’s true-crime story. Smart seduced a teenaged boy and convinced him to kill her hubby. It’s all very sordid stuff, which of course makes for great Showtunes.

Meanwhile, check out the film To Die For, which was Kidman’s first foray into the depths of her eventual Oscar-winning talent. It also stars a trashy piece of boy meat Joaquin Phoenix, Matt Dillon as the smarmy husband, and an always underused Ileana Douglas as Dillon’s sister.   

Aussie Naomi Watts is slated to step into Tippi Hedren’s hen-pecked pumps for a remake of Alfred Hitchcock’s apocalyptic masterpiece The Birds. You know, because Van Sant’s remake of Psycho was such a grand idea. Naomi’s pulled a hat trick of juicy roles including in Mullholland Drive, 21 Grams and most recently Eastern Promises but replace Tippi? Nobody gets pecked to within an inch of their life quite like Melanie Griffith’s mama Tippi.   

Pop-hottie Pink could soon be on the prowl, so says the New York Daily News. Sadly for Pink, the “Don’t Ask Don’t Tell” philandering policy Pink and her bad-boy hubby Carey Hart signed, isn’t working out and the pair is headed for a quickie, Reno style divorce. Pink recently made a load of girls gush when she turned up for The Gymnast DVD release party at West Hollywood’s Eleven. The lesbian community offers up a collective shoulder for Pink to lay her head…

It’s Spice Girls redux. Those sassy, slightly-over-the-hill British babes have reunited for a new tour and they’re kicking it off with their latest bubblegum release “Friendship Never Ends.” Awww, lovely sentiment. Friendship never ends when there are millions to be made anyway….

Self-confessed and damned proud of it, bottom, Suzanne Westenhoefer’s show, Suzanne Westenhoefer: A Bottom on Top airs on Logo this week. A side-clutching, gasp-for-air-comedian, Suzanne’s show was captured by entrepreneur turned damned fine filmmaker Andrea Meyerson, who’s breaking the myth that lesbians aren’t funny with her Laughing Matters series.

For those out of the L.A. loop, Meyerson—founder of L.A.’s largest women’s outings group, Women on a Roll—also nabbed herself a rep as a lesbian Yenta. Her Cupid’s arrows are so precise she could blow those homo-haters over at eHarmony.com out of the water with the girl on girl matches she’s made. Heck, my girl and I met on Andrea’s annual booze-cruise on a yacht in Marina Del Rey. Thanks for pricking me with your arrow Andrea!

Sporty Spice angered by lesbian rumours

Spice Girl Melanie C has said that rumours she was a lesbian "pissed her off."

The singer, 33, was nicknamed 'Butch Spice' when the band split in 2001, after she put on weight and cropped her hair.

She was also dogged by rumours of an affair with her female assistant.

But the star - who has been dating "semi-professional beard" Thomas Starr for the past five years - insists they are nothing but cheap jibes.

Mel told women's mag Cosmopolitan: "At first that [the lesbian rumours] made me laugh because it wasn't something that ever crossed my mind.

"And then it kind of pissed me off when I thought, “Because I have short hair and am quite muscular with a few tattoos, am I the stereotypical lesbian?”

But she concedes that the rumours may have been beneficial to her solo career: "I don't think it did me any harm. I've always had a huge lesbian and gay following."

Preview: Lesbian Wife Swap

Jess and Lou Pearson-Faith are a lesbian couple from Essex. They live together in a council flat with Jess's three children from a previous marriage: Daniel, 16, Charlotte, 15, and Jo, 12.

Jess's first marriage ended when she left her husband of six years and moved out with the children. Two years ago Jess met Lou and despite a ten year age gap they became one of the first couples to wed in a same-sex civil ceremony, and they now have plans for a child of their own.

At just 24, Lou has now become a stepmum to Jess's three teenage children. But despite this responsibility, Lou is not allowed to discipline the kids according to Jess's wishes: 'I just don't think anyone else has the right to tell off my children.' So while Jess takes care of the children, Lou takes care of the house, which means doing all the ironing, cooking and washing.

But aside from the household chores and Lou's part-time bar job, the family has nothing else to occupy their time. With no full-time jobs they are reliant on benefits for their income and mum Jess has plenty of free time on her hands: 'I sit down as much as possible and tend to do just nothing. Which I like.'

Two hundred miles away in Cheshire there's no time to sit around for traditional farming family the Beresfords.

The Beresfords are mum Mandy and dad Mick, 14-year-old son Tom, and 13-year-old daughter Emma. In the Beresford household, Mandy looks after the house and the kids while Mick works on the farm. Dad Mick works over 70 hours a week on the farm and expects to be taken care of at the end of a hard days work: 'I'm a very busy person so I need my tea on the table and the dinner ready.'

For Mandy it doesn't end with housework and domestic chores. When she's not working round the house, she is constantly being summoned by Mick on the mobile to come to his assistance and help with everything from milking to mucking out: 'He calls me and he'll say I want that doing now'.

And she does it all on the meagre allowance she receives from Mick. This means that if she wants to go out and meet her friends, she has to sneak around to find money and get out of the house: 'I even have to go rummaging in his pockets to top up my allowance which hasn't gone up in ten years…I very often feel a slave to the family.'

How will farmer Mick cope with the concept of a two-wife family who don't have to work for a living? And how will laid back Jess deal with long working days, a smaller allowance, and a husband who doesn't believe that same sex marriages work?

Blunt tries to pull Ellen

Ahh James Blunt.

"you're beautiful."

Indeed I am. So is Ellen Degeneres. And her girlfriend Portia DiRossi is pretty foxy too.

It seems that the singer for whom Cockney rhyming slang was invented is the only person in the TV-receiving world who is not aware that Ellen is one of them lesbians.

On her talkshow, she asked Blunt if he is seeing anyone, to which he replied:

"I'll give you my phone number afterwards." 

"I'm gonna tell you a little something later," Ellen quipped.

"Something I got to talk to you about a lil bit later!"

Blunt persisted. Check out the video for yourself:

Shocking Brady Bunch revelations

Here's the story of a lovely lady
Who was bringing up three very lovely girls
All of them had hair of gold, like their mother.
The youngest one in curls.

And two of them were getting up to more than braiding each other's hair.

Shocking revelations from the Hollywood frontline. We can't get our head round it. It seems that America's most wholesome TV family was not all that is seemed.

Marcia Brady was having a "sex play" with Jan.

There. We said it. The bombshell is set to be revealed next year when Brady Bunch star Maureen McCormick, who played lovely Marcia, releases her book, Here's The Story.

It seems Maureen and co-star Eve Plumb, who played her younger sister Jan, had more than a sisterly relationship.

A source told the National Enquirer:

"The most explosive comments will be how the then-blonde, blue-eyed cutie developed a crush on Eve Plumb, which led to some sexual play.

"This book will certainly come as a shocker. While Maureen is not a lesbian, she reveals there were some sexual hijinks going on behind the scenes. "It's bizarre because she played such a virginal character on the show."

Hmm. The National Enquirer, you say.  Best wait for the book and find out what really went on in the Brady house.

Jodie Foster- still no comment on lesbian outing

Out Magazine essentially outed Jodie Foster on the cover of their magazine earlier this year, and when Entertainment Weekly brought up the subject of the article in a recent interview with the Oscar winner, in typical fashion, she had nothing to say.

Foster appears on the cover of the entertainment powerhouse to promote her latest flick, the Neil Jordan directed The Brave One.

In the article, the writer says this: "There's only one subject that (Foster) firmly swats away. A recent Out Magazine cover featured two models holding up pictures of her and Anderson Cooper's faces in front of their own, under the headline 'The Glass Closet: Why Stars Won't Come Out And Play.'

"When asked if she has any response, Foster says, 'Was that the one with the Popsicle sticks?' Her thin lips tighten into a calm half smile of reproach: 'No, I have no response.'"

The actress has been notoriously tight lipped about her sexuality throughout her career. Despite numerous articles that suggest she's in a long-term relationship with Cydney Bernard, Foster has yet to speak of her in the press.

Earlier this year, Foster became the single biggest donor to The Trevor Project in the history of the organization. Trevor is a 24 hour suicide hotline for gay and lesbian teens.

Brian wins Big Brother, bisexual Carole comes fifth

Tonight, Big Brother series 8 ended its 94-day run. The nation has been voting all week, the final votes have been counted and verified and host Davina McCall revealed that Brianis this year’s £100,000 winner.

When the voting lines closed, Brian had received 60.3% of the votes for the final two places.

On hearing the news Brian started to cry and looked stunned. The twins, Amanda and Sam, screamed as Brian said “come here” and gave them a big hug. Brian, with tears streaming down his face, said “I don’t deserve to win …. this is so mental”.

Runners-up Amanda & Sam hugged and kissed Brian before walking out of the Big Brother house. As they waved a final goodbye to the winner they called out “whistle for a hottie” and then made their way up the stairs hand in hand.

Earlier tonight during the 8:30pm show, it was announced that Liam finished in 3rd place, former Northern Line star, Ziggy in 4th place, bisexual Carole in 5th place and Jonty in 6th place.

This year Big Brother raised an approximate total of £244,208 for this year’s chosen charities: Crisis, Help the Hospices and Samaritans, with the money being split equally between the three. Phone votes this year cost 25p, with at least 10p from each phone vote going to the charities.

Following a series of premium rate telephone line scandals,  Channel 4  making any profit from the voting on the eighth series of Big Brother.

Two Dannii Minogue lesbian stories

Yes, two Dannii stories in one day - must be some sort of record.

The Sydney Morning Herald is reporting that Kylie's younger sister is "embroiled" in a new "scandal" - namely that an eight-year-old video of Danni snogging a lesbian in a pop video has appeared on YouTube.

"She made the video for a Gay Pride event, because she believes very strong that people should be able to love whoever they want," an 'unnamed source' told the paper

"She won't be happy to discover people are using it to try to encourage lesbian rumours."

Meanwhile, back in the UK, DigitalSpy reports that more lesbian images of the lady who sang This Is It are causing her trouble.

She did the saucy snaps for the News of the World and now she wants them back.

DigitalSpy quotes Ms Minogue: "I was totally set up.

"It woke me up to the fact that there are some creepy, nasty people out there willing to do anything take advantage of someone famous."

Isn't it though.

Of course, this rash of Danni-related stories has nothing to do with the fact that she has just begun a stint as one of the judges on ITV show X Factor. Nothing whatsoever.

Rosie O'Donnell gives verbal

TV star Rosie O-Donnell was subjected to a furious homophobic verbal assault by a biker who accused her of driving at him.

The talk show host describes the incident, which took place during a vacation O'Donnell is taking with her partner in Miami, Florida, on her blog www.rosie.com.

She claims she was driving out of a parking lot after dinner on Saturday  when, "Along came a bald screaming infuriated man, it's always a man I tell ya...

"As I buckled my belt he ran towards (our) car angry, 'My motorcycle blah blah'.

"(I said) 'chill dude - we didn't touch it.'

"This apparently did not calm him down, however, and soon there was name-calling. He got madder, pupils big - snorting like a dragon: 'Fucking lesbians'. He screamed the trump card.

"And we are supposed to cower, to fall to our knees ashamed.

"Not good enough. Unworthy. Not tonight Mr bald muscle man with a pimped out hog, not tonight. I stood up in the front seat hands above my head smiled and yelled 'CORRECT SIR - FUCKING LESBIAN!!!'

"He stormed back to his table right there in the Lincoln Mall."

GO ROSIE!

Bi Angelina is now all Brad

There are reports that Angelina Jolie’s lesbian inclinations have waned since being with Brad Pitt.

She has reportedly told French magazine Public: "I have never hidden my bisexuality.

"But since I've been with Brad, I abandoned women. Now there is no room for that or S&M in my life."

In reference to her husband, she said Brad “lets me talk to whomever I want, he has complete blind faith in me."

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie met on the set of <I>Mr & Mrs Smith</I> and married in 2005. They have since adopted four children.

Jenny Shimizu, a former lesbian lover, has doubted the claims in an interview with the News of the World. She stated that Jolie "loves danger and dabbling in the dark side.

"Angelina is an unbelievable lesbian lover. That's where she gets her kicks - not playing happy families with one man."

Brad said last year that he will not be marrying Ms Jolie until all Americans, including the gay and lesbian ones, have the same rights. Love you! 

Why can't he be the bi one? Oh well.  

Embarrassing KT Tunstall fans

The Sun, our great paper of record, today reports that lesbian fans of singer KT Tunstall have taken to turning up at her gigs and sitting in the front row urging her to come out of the closet.

Despite the fact she is straight and in a relationship with a man.

What odd behaviour. Unless there is something we do not  know, it appears that KT, like the majority of women, prefers to do sex with men.

How rude of these 'fans' to heckle her and claim she is actually just pretending.

How insulting. Imagine the reaction if a gang of straight women turned up at a George Michael gig and said:

"You know who you are - go on, admit it," meaning he is actually a hetero.

Anyone that cannot accept that some people are, tragically, born straight is just as bad as homophobes who say gay people are exercising a 'lifestyle choice.'

Of course, The Sun could just be making it all up - let us know if you have any further info please, dear PinkNews.co.uk readers.
