Dirt comes back, Magneto the movie, Reichen sings, and more![]() One Thomas Cannon has just been discovered as the 18th century's Oscar Wilde, writing such inflammatory things about same-sex love he had to flee the country lest he lose his head One of my least favorite shows from this past season--FX's Dirt--is coming back for a second season. Oh, joy. If you remember, Courtney Cox's character had a creepy gay or bi brother who got involved with a closeted action star, then tried to blackmail him or something. I've tried to block the whole thing out as the show is just that icky. I just pray the show doesn't bring back the gay brother or any other gay character. I do not want to to follow it! FX also announced that Eddie Izzard's The Riches is coming back as well. That show features a cross-dressing adolescent apparently based on Izzard himself. Here is a very funny bit lampooning "journalist" Perez Hilton. It may not be entirely safe for work. In our interview with Sir Ian McKellen last year, he told us he hoped there would be a Magneto movie. Looks like it might be happening after all, but unfortunately without McKellen (or Patrick Stewart). Instead it will focus on Magneto and Dr. Xavier as youths. Out director Bryan Singer isn't involved so it's hard to know if new director David Goyer and writer Sheldon Turner will keep up the X-Men's gay subtext.
This is a rather interesting clip of Reichen Lehmkuhl being interviewed by another male model about why folks don't take them seriously as advocates. Frankly, I expected a lot of whining, but Reichen actually says he brought this on himself by being so willing to use body to get attention. Interesting stuff. Oh, and he sings a little, too. Not that he's going to win American Idol or anything. Submitted by on Fri, 2007-04-27 15:01. |

I can't believe perez hilton is famous for.....writing crap and outing people. oy.
"Reichen actually says he brought this on himself by being so willing to use body to get attention"
^ haha, i would've never guessed. tsk.
Ugh
Are we sure McKellen isn't
It sure doesn't
Reichen
Good for him. Finally, he acknowledges that he's a whore...sorry, famewhore.
And I know that he can't help it that his voice sounds that way, but Ben Patrick Johnson bugs after a while with that super-modulated voice. It's like listening to the movie trailer VO forever.

Magneto & Ian McKellen
They will be. It'll be like
David Goyer
David Goyer's too macho to allow any gay subtext in this movie. A line of dialogue from his "Blade" screenplay (spoken by the hero) was: "I got news for you, butt-boy. You're already dead." The line was cut from the film, but still...
Also, McKellen might only in the film for a couple of "present day" scenes. Most of the film will be seen in flashback with younger actors.
I'm sure a different actor
Dirt
Ben Patrick Johnson
Gay Icon?
