• Out singer/songwriter Darren Hayes was recently interviewed and "savaged" (zing!) the mainstream media for "dumbing down being gay". His favorite target - Will & Grace: "I think it appeals to the lowest common denominator that basically there are two types of gay men, the slut, or there's the straight acting guy."

• VH-1 has announced the resurrection of their concert extravaganza VH-1 Divas. The ladies performing this time around are Adele, Kelly Clarkson, Leona Lewis and Miley Cyrus. Yes, when I think "diva" ... those are the first names that come to mind.

Once more, with feeling!
