Morning Meme: David Furnish Retreats, Joel McHale Is Prickly, and What If John Hughes Made a Zombie Movie?

This really isn't news, but seriously, go look at these pictures of Chris Hemsworth in St. Barts on a waterslide with Ben Affleck. The body is just beyond belief.

I had wondered aloud if the world would let Brent Corrigan become Sean Paul Lockhart again. I had hoped. And maybe it will, because there he is, pictured in Entertainment Weekly for his role in Chillerama.

Anne Heche is set to star in the NBC pilot Save Me, about a woman who starts to believe that she's channeling God after an accident. The jokes write themselves.

New Jersey is getting tantalizingly close to a veto proof majority for marriage equality. I've suspected that was the endgame of both parties from the beginning, holding true to the populace while allowing Gov. Christie's conservative star to keep rising.

Nike, Microsoft and Concur have come out publicly for marriage equality in Washington, and leaders say they're only one vote shy of passing the measure in both houses.

Meanwhile, CNN allowed the National Organization for Marriage to sponsor last night's debate in South Carolina. Is the KKK sponsoring the next one?

The most phallic places on earth. NSFW?

For the record, Steven Soderbergh will use "It's Raining Men" in Magic Mike. So we can rely on that cliché.

Yesterday, the federal government shut down MegaUpload and arrested several people, though not CEO Swizz Beats (Alicia Keys' husband). Anonymous struck back immediately, shutting down the websites for the DOJ, RIAA, MPAA and others involved in the raids.

David Furnish wants to walk back his criticism of Madonna's Golden Globe win. "My comments regarding the Golden Globes have been blown way out of proportion. My passion for our film Gnomeo & Juliet and belief in Elton's song really got my emotional juices going."

Everyone can breathe a partial sigh of relief, because Megan Fox is not up for the role of Elizabeth Taylor in a Lifetime movie.

Daniel Radcliffe is set to host Live! With Kelly January 31st. Honestly, I think this could be an incredible match for Kelly. Maybe even make it permanent?

Tammy Baldwin has raised $1 million in the last quarter in her bid for the Senate, giving her a $1.8 million war chest.

News International has written checks to a slew of people for phone hacking. Topping the list was Jude Law with about £130,000. I'll be honest, the dollar figures sound really low to me. Is there a statutory maximum in the UK for these sort of things, or just a certain sense of decorum? Because I would think in the U.S. the totals would be in the millions.

Katherine Heigl now wants to come back to Grey's Anatomy. Only if George gets to come back too.

Because I didn't have enough awards shows to tweet about, Uggi has announced the nominations for the Golden Collar Awards. Yep – for canine actors. There's a category for movies, but perhaps the most insane is for television, with pooches from Chelsea Lately, Modern Family, Hot In Cleveland and Suburgatory going up against Jason Gann for playing a dog on Wilfred.
