Speaking of Marriage…

Friday, September 30th, 2005

Check out Louis Bayard’s excellent review of Dan Savage’s new book The Commitment on Salon.

Schwarzenegger Vetoes Gay Marriage Bill

Friday, September 30th, 2005

We saw this one coming, but it’s still a drag. What particularly sucks here though is the excuse the supposedly-moderate Governator offers. He is, in effect, leaving it up to the California Supreme Court to decide an impending same-sex marriage lawsuit. So, not only is he passing the buck, he is directly […]

Walk In Kim’s Shoes

Friday, September 30th, 2005

This star is so just like us, we don’t know what to do with ourselves. OK, we don’t dj, but we do sell our old crap on eBay. And so does Kim from America’s Next Top Model. We’re surprised nobody bid on these riding boots—they look pretty good on her.

America’s Next Top Model Kim, sells […]

Paris & Nicole in Your Living Room, Literally

Friday, September 30th, 2005

Defamer posted yesterday that casting directors for The Simple Life are looking for a lesbian household, with children, for Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie to move into for the next season of the show. Apparently the compensation, other than possibly getting to see Paris in her underwear (we happen to think she has a pretty […]

Olivia for Old Folks

Thursday, September 29th, 2005

Olivia Cruises And Resorts, which specializes in all-lesbian, all-the-time vacations, just announced that they’ll be developing resorts and retirement communities for gay senior citizens. We’re waiting to hear about next year’s L Word nursing home storyline.

Find Homo Love on TV

Thursday, September 29th, 2005

Are you having trouble falling in love? Are you queer and “pleasantly eccentric?” Are you over 25 but not yet 50? Then you could be the star of a TV documentary for a “national cable channel!” The show’s casting director e-mailed us the following request. Check it out, but remember, if you do get on […]

Nightlife Reporter: Snapshot’s New Spot

Thursday, September 29th, 2005

Snapshot’s relocation party confirmed that Nicco and the Snapshot crew are pretty much No. 1 in their field, if you can call throwing hot parties on Tuesdays a field. We’re so happy they graduated to an upstairs party. It’s so nice to walk up, and up, and up to go dance instead of descending down, […]

Your Chance to Meet Kim Stolz from ANTM

Thursday, September 29th, 2005

We promise, we’re not turning Hothouse into the America’s Next Top Queer Model blog. It’s just that it’s all, well, so compelling. And now we (and you) have a chance to go up to Kim Stolz and ask her if she is really in love with the tulip-lipped contestant (we doubt it). Because she is […]

More Top Model Queerness

Wednesday, September 28th, 2005

Just to participate a little in the rumor-mongoring, the often-right Perez Hilton is reporting that America’s Next Top Model’s next big plot twist is that Coryn (of the eyebrows) is actually MtF. We’re wondering if Kim, with her collegiate trans-activism, had the transdar to see it coming.

Sally ≠ Shane

Wednesday, September 28th, 2005

Last Sunday’s Style section in the NY Times had an interesting-ish article on the woman whose two claims to fame are giving Meg Ryan a shag haircut and being the supposed prototype for L Word hottie hairdresser, Shane. Sally Hershberger has no problem owning up to the haircut, but denies any connection to Shane (she […]
