I won't even pretend to have an excuse for posting this pic of gay-friendly dreamboat Ryan Reynolds at the preem of his new movie, Adventureland (Photo: GETTY)
Following this assortment of carefully-selected news items, interested readers can find a refreshing pic of a hot man in underwear after the jump. Yes, we're serious.
- Adventureland star Jesse Eisenberg (Cursed, Roger Dodger) will play gay beat poet Allen Ginsberg in the upcoming ensemble mystery pic Kill Your Darlings. Ben Whishaw (Brideshead Revisited's Sebastian Flyte) and Chris Evans (Sunshine) will co-star.
- At the HRC gala this weekend, NAACP Chairman Julian Bond said at the podium that when people ask him if gay rights are civil rights, his answer is "of course they are ... It isn't 'special' to be free from discrimination. It is an ordinary, universal entitlement of citizenship." Well said - you can watch his entire speech over here.
- Acclaimed actress Natasha Richardson (wife to Liam Neeson and daughter to Vanessa Redgrave and late, gay director Tony Richardson) has suffered a terrible skiing accident and sources are reporting that she is not expected to survive. The actress is 45, and our thoughts go out to her family.
- Above, check out a star-studded video wishing GLAAD well on the 20th anniversary of their GLAAD Media Awards.
- And for our European readers, the Verzaubert Queer Fest will be playing a host of gay flicks in cities across Germany, including the new adaptations of The Informers and Mysteries of Pittsburgh, as well as classics like Boys in the Band and The Fruit Machine. Interestingly, many of the new films are set in the 1980's.
