Ellen Degeneres: Remarkably Mainstream.
Posted on 23 July 2008 | Category: lesbian, people we heart

Something that’s always kind of amazed us is how Ellen does it. Week after week she cracks jokes, dances on that stage and has a blast…with middle american housewives? The same people who dance around and cheer for her wildly would likely vote for her not to be able to marry - it’s a strange position.

She even announced her engagement on television - that’s bravery.  

Anyway, sometimes people deserve a bit of applause, and we’re not opposed to giving it out. Kudos to you Ellen…and if you want to send your soon-to-be hot wife over to give me a backrub…that would be awfully nice of you. I love happy endings.

Just because lesbians love animals too.

In an amazing story, a Beagle lost out of the yard in New York, turned up 5 years later in Georgia. The family looked for the dog, but with no luck. Until today. They got a call that the dog turned up in a shelter in Georgia, and was identified after it’s microchip was scanned and the family was located. Shelter owners stated that the dog clearly looked worn, had cuts under its eye, and was found on a nearby military base.

 With all the crap in the world, I’m glad that at least Rocco had a happy ending. Cheers to you, tough guy. 

Ellen & Portia: Lovers or twins?

Have you noticed this? I know we’re supposed to have the “urge to merge,” but is this really necessary?

Thomas Beatie, the transgendered guy who became pregnant when his wife was unable to conceive, gave birth to a healthy baby girl.

There are no post-pregnancy breasts to post, but I think you’ll agree, it’s one fantastic ending.

Jerry O’Connell is for Equality.
Posted on 02 July 2008 | Category: celebrity, people we heart

How could you not love this guy? He’s come from being an overweight child star who was picked on (remember “Stand by Me?”),  to an attractive guy married to a model.  

 More important than this, Jerry recently appeared in a Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD) public service announcement encouraging people to become allies of their GLBT neighbors. <click here to see it>

After all of it, the guy’s still got a wicked sense of humor, spoofing Tom Cruise in his Scientology rant, and showing on a run when confronted with paparazzi cameras,  that men need to cover up too:

Where was he when the guy next door was mowing his lawn?

 There are definitely days it should be mandatory that everybody should cover their nipples.

Military + Gays = Toronto Pride.
Posted on 30 June 2008 | Category: people we heart

This past Sunday, Toronto’s Gay Pride Parade concluded the festivities of the week with an enormous parade. Who was in the parade? Out and proud military members.

Not only did openly gay soldiers march in the parade, the military also had a booth set up to recruit from the pool of gay/lesbian participants, saying to the CBC “for our own members, they can be proud of what they’re doing and also be proud of who they are.” The Canadian military has welcomed  gay/lesbian members since 1992, and since same-sex marriage is legal, their partners now receive full spousal benefits. 

That’s cool.

Madonna and Guy heading downhill fast.
Posted on 26 June 2008 | Category: fantasy lesbian, people we heart

It is alleged that Madonna and Guy Ritchie are in the early stages of divorce. It was recently reported by The Times of London, that Madonna met with attorney Fiona Shackleton (who represented Paul McCartney in his recent split). Madonna is worth an estimated $600 million.

 Yes, Madonna may be a control-freak, 50 years old, but she’s fierce…

A recent picture shows her taking a gulp of champagne and spontaneously locking lips with a young female dancer right before the release of her album, Hard Candy.  Love her or hate her, she’s a total alpha.

The Top 5.
Posted on 23 June 2008 | Category: fantasy lesbian, lesbian, people we heart

Many lists name the “prettiest” or “sexiest,” but ours is based purely on “do-able.” We hope you’ll agree:

1. Penelope Cruz - Hey, if she’s kissed her sister (click here) in an eerily hot way, we figure she’ll do just about anything. Penelope tops our list for her advocacy against domestic violence, that little accent, and most importantly, the “freak factor”…

2. Amanda Moore - She is “rumored” to have banged some of the hottest chicks in hollywood (Gina Gershon, Kate Moenning, etc.), she’s out, rich, and unapolegetically gay…and don’t cheat on her. It was reported on page six that she beat up some guy at a bar that she found out was having sex with her girlfriend. Ouch.

 3. Have a librarian festish? Tina Fey is totally doable. Glasses on, legs up.

 4. Did you know Sarah Shahi studied Opera? Even though she says she’s not gay, we’d love a chance to make her sing. We think, given her openness, she’d definitely be up for well..some action in other places. Um…you’re seeing what I’m seeing, right?

  5. A lesbian icon before digging chicks was cool, I’m betting Xena often nailed Gabrielle behind the scenes (as well as in them). All I know is that I definitely want “iron-burn,” it doesn’t seem as fun as rug-burn, but I would be limping all the way home with a smile on my face.

 Feel free to add your own names and reasons to extend the top 5 if you wish..

Stuff we heart.
