Quote of the Day: Rupert Everett Advises Gay Actors to Stay Closeted
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Celeb News, Celebrity Gossip, Celebrity Controversy
“The fact is that you could not be, and still cannot be, a 25-year-old homosexual trying to make it in the British film business or the American film business or even the Italian film business. It just doesn’t work and you’re going to hit a brick wall at some point. You’re going to manage to make it roll for a certain amount of time, but at the first sign of failure they’ll cut you right off. And I’m sick of saying, ‘Yes, it’s probably my own fault.’ Because I’ve always tried to make it work and when it stops working somewhere, I try to make it work somewhere else. But the fact of the matter is, and I don’t care who disagrees, it doesn’t work if you’re gay… It’s not that advisable to be honest. It’s not very easy. And, honestly, I would not advise any actor necessarily, if he was really thinking of his career, to come out.”
-Openly gay actor Rupert Everett (Shrek the Third) giving career advice to other gay stars.

All the Buzz on Queen Latifah
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Celeb News, Celebrity Gossip, Rumors
The media is currently engaged in a fierce battle, as every single publication seems to be fighting for a single honor: they want to be one to out Queen Latifah. The rumors and gossip started naturally enough, when MediaTakeOut (an Internet site) announced they have exclusive rights to Queen’s story. The New York Post followed with a teaser that a certain ‘big Hollywood actress’ was soon going to come out of the closet and marry her girlfriend of four years.
The rumor is that Latifah and Jeanette Jenkins have been living together for some time and will soon take their love public in a big wedding. Is it true? Is Queen Latifah even homosexual? Queen and Jenkins have been spied together, but that doesn’t mean marriage is imminent. Who will be the first to break the story…if there even is a story?
Right now, it’s all rumor and conjecture, but keep your eyes peeled for more news on Queen Latifah’s potential wedding.

J.K. Rowling: ‘Dumbledore Is Gay’
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Warner Bros, Adaptation, Adventure, Drama, Family, Science Fiction, Sequels, Rumors, Upcoming Releases
Although author J.K. Rowling put the Harry Potter saga to rest this past July, she is still shocking devotees of the series with secrets to this day. At a reading Friday night in New York’s Carnegie Hall, Rowling was asked if Albus Dumbledore finds true love. She then revealed a juicy tidbit now ringing throughout the world: “Dumbledore is gay”.
Those who have read between the lines may have suspected this all along. Rowling equated Dumbledore’s affections for wizard Gellert Grindelwald as his ‘great tragedy’. The Hogwarts Headmaster, devastated by Grindelwald’s attraction to the dark side, later went on to defeat his rival.
Confusion about Dumbledore’s sexuality preference almost became an issue in the upcoming big screen installment, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. Rowling made sure director David Yates remove a reference about Albus’ past loves from the adapted script.
Parents unfazed by the revealing news can bring their kids back to theaters in 2008 and 2010.

REVIEW: I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry
Posted by Johnny Mercedes Categories: Universal, Drama, Comedy, New Releases, Theatrical Reviews
When Larry Valentine (Kevin James), an NYPD fireman and father of two, discovers his children will no longer be pension beneficiaries after the death of his wife, he must find a way to protect them should something happen to him. After saving the life of his longtime friend and co-worker Chuck Levine (Adam Sandler), Larry hatches a plan and convinces Chuck to become his domestic partner – much to Chuck’s chagrin. Everything seems easy at first, but soon the men are challenged by the city of New York and must go to extreme lengths to keep up the charade. Sexy lawyer Alex McDonough (Jessica Biel) steps in to help the gentlemen, but Chuck has a hard time keeping his eyes (and hands) off of the only person with the ability to help them refute the skepticism.
Although Chuck and Larry attempts to show the difficulties homosexuals still have being accepted in society, the themes are contradicted by numerous (and horribly dated) gay jokes and derogatory terms audiences will first find mildly amusing, then awkward and discomforting.
