Morning Meme: Darren Criss Rocks the Vote, Matt Damon Puckers Up for Michael Douglas, and "Captain America" Bulks Up

We’ve got a track listing for Blaine and the Pips, a.k.a. Warblers on Glee. I don’t see any surprises really, which is a little disappointing.Darren Criss

Speaking of Darren Criss, he’s teaming up with a new initiative from MTV’s Rock the Vote to help get youth interested in the political process.

Let me get this straight: Adam Lambert snogs a dude on the American Music Awards, and spends months banned from ABC shows like Good Morning America and The View. Chris Brown breaks a window and storms out of Good Morning America when he’s asked about his felony assault of Rihanna, and he’s still welcome to perform on ABC’s Dancing With the Stars. So male-male kissing is worse than violence. Thanks for clearing that up ABC.

Eddie Vedder is going to release an entire album of ukulele music.

 Ian McShaneIf you go see a Lady Gaga concert, will you leave feeling this abused and drained?

Ian McShane has signed up to play the King (a recurring theme for him) in Bryan Singer’s Jack the Giant Killer, which just got a 2012 release date.

What hidden images and secret messages are in the logos for your favorite companies? And no, I’m not talking about what’s on the package of Camel cigarettes.

Elizabeth Taylor’s last tweet was about a Kardashian.

Matt Damon and Michael Douglas have multiple make out scenes scripted in their Liberace movie, which makes sense, as the reported relationship between Liberace and his young lover lasted years.

WalMart fixed the filter on their website review app to allow the word “gay” to appear, and has apologized to Mark King and the It Gets Better Project.

Filming begins this week on the remake Plan 9 From Outer Space, generally considered to be the worst movie ever made. I’m a little unclear if they’re trying to make it better, or worse. Assuming that’s even possible.Vincent

James Gruber, the final original member of the Mattachine Society passed away last month at the age of 82.

SyFy has plans for another Christmas-themed pack of Eureka, with Vincent making a 3 second appearance, and Warehouse 13, which will hopefully feature shirtless Eddie McClintock. And Aaron Ashmore, since he’s there. His twin brother has no issues getting totally naked, so the least he can do is parade around shirtless for my amusement.

MTV has ordered two more seasons of The Real World, but I don’t know how they’ll top a former gay-for-pay cast member.Gwen Stefani Harajuku

In Japan news, Gwen Stefani, who made a fortune off her Harajuku clothing line has agreed to donate $1 million to the relief effort in the ravaged country. And in other news, a baby porpoise that got washed more than a mile inland to a rice paddy was caught and release back into the ocean.

The stoning of a senior citizen by his 28-year-old friend was motivated by greed, not sexual advances according to the brother of the victim.

The images of Winterfell, Kings Landing, and The Wall from HBO’s A Game of Thrones have been Tea Leonireleased. The Wall is suitably imposing for my tastes, but Winterfell looks a little too pretty for my memories of the books.

Reader JusticeGH tips us that Proctor & Gamble is test driving men’s only grooming aisles in grocery stores, with all the products you need to be your metrosexual best without digging through products for women’s skin, or tampons. It’s got fancy neon lighting and some privacy so no one sees you matching the shade of Just For Men.

HBO has also greenlit a comedy pilot called Spring/Fall starring Tea Leoni. Since it’s set in the fashion world in New York, there have to be gay characters somewhere, right?
