Music Buzz This is amazing. Colton James Boettcher wanted to make a different kind of “It Gets Better” video, so he teamed up with Madison, Wisconsin's LGBT community for this music video, set to Lady Gaga's “Hair.” Come for the sick choreography, stay for the inspiring message.
Politics Buzz This election cycle, Santorum’s views on LGBT rights have come to define him – and may ruin his camapign. It's his own private cage aux folles.
Culture Buzz This is heartbreaking. Yesterday, just one month after posting an “It Gets Better” video on YouTube, 19-year-old Californian filmmaker and gay rights activist Eric James Borges took his own life.
Spain's Party Alert System is now stuck at code red thanks to this video. (via pinkisthenewblog.com)
Dallas Cowboys Hall of Famer Michael Irvin and other straight pro athletes show their support of gay civil rights by posing for the latest issue of Out magazine. (via out.com)
Oh hell no. It looks like to me they're even kissing in a FRENCH way.
The Commandant and Sergeant Major of the Marine Corps released this video to the Corps describing the way ahead.
Video from a gay club in the late 50s or early 60s. I need to learn how to dance like the guy from 1:14-1:20.
According to this irony-free video, it is unfair for peaceful protesters to block one family's view of a hate parade, but it is totally fair to support an organization that thinks certain people should not be allowed to marry the people they love. Via Queerty.
Bill O'Reilly wonders when McDonalds will have an Al Qaeda advertisement to compliment their current “Gay Commercial” that is making the rounds in France. Stay classy, Fox News.
Culture Buzz As the storm brews in the fight against gay marriage, the good folks at Restoring Integrity to Marriage (or RIM) expect to throw in their two cents.
TV Buzz After Comedy Central slashed the budget of The Sarah Silverman Program, the show's future looked bleak until MTV Networks' gay channel, Logo, agreed to co-finance the show. Finally, someone actually funny (although Buzzfeed readers don't necessarily agree) might dethrone Kathy Griffin as the queen of gay comedy. …Maybe. …Okay, doubtful, but a boy can dream.
YES!!!@#! That was fast. This is obviously the falsest report since Dewey Defeats Truman, but it's a slow news day and I laughed.
Celebrity Buzz The R.E.M. frontman has been allegedly been dubbed “Twat Waffle” by Sara Barron, a former waitress at a trendy New York restaurant who claims - in her upcoming memoir People Are Unappealing - that he and his posse rang up a bill of $2000 and left no tip after dining for over five hours. Allegedly, he wouldn't talk to the waitress either, instead delegating one of his 19 hang-ons to make the demands. He may have lost his religion a long time ago, but the guy could use to learn some manners.

The rom-com about unlucky ladies and gentlemen in love (imagine that!) is looming on the horizon, and apparently the marginal characters - or “three gays and a Black guy” - prove to be almost as insulting as the fact that He's Just Not That Into You was made into a movie. To be fair, we should've seen coming in the trailer when Drew Barrymore's flock of geighz insist that “MySpace is the new booty call.” Ugh, nobody says that, gay or straight.
Homosexual geneticists at the Pink Tiger Research Institute believe they have isolated the gene that causes Christianity. This will be very comforting to concerned parents of Christians who fear they may have somehow caused their children to choose this deviant lifestyle. (P.S. Merry Christmas!)

Just in time to spread some holiday cheer, Pope Benedict XVI professed that the threat of being gay is as dire a societal menace as saving the rainforest. Now we know why he's nicknamed “God's Rottweiler:” because he likes to sh*t all over everything. HAPPY HOLIDAYS FROM THE VATICAN!
Tech Buzz The dating site, which exclusively serves a heterosexual audience (no surprise, given that it's chair is Neil Clark Warren, an evangelical Christian), has settled a court complaint by paying a $50K fine, and is now preparing to launch Compatible Partners for gays, which will - oddly enough - use the exact same questionnaire employed by eHarmony. In other words, they're basically giving gays a piece of the pie, specifically the pie made from ingredients based on algorithms meant exclusively to apply to heterosexual couples.
And you thought these reactions were bad. A million face palms is not…
