Kylie Minogue says she may go gay
If you can't find Mr. Right, well then,
start looking for Ms. Right.
That seems to be the message from
Aussie pop singer and gay icon
Kylie Minogue,
who has been quoted by thesun.co.uk as
saying that she has considered going gay,
like actressTallulah Bankhead, because she
can't find the right kind of man for herself.
Minoque, 40, said she had a crush
on Bankhead, reportedly
bisexual, who died
in 1968 after a
career marked by
sex and drug con-
troversies.
"I'd go gay for
her," Minogue told
the Sun. "She was a
fascinating and exotic
woman. There was so
much to admire about
her. She lived life to the
full, maybe a little too fully.
I want to release the inner
Tallulah in me. God knows I
can't get a man — so maybe I
should cross over."
J. Lo loves Don Roos
Don Roos, the gay filmmaker
behind "The Opposite of Sex" and
"Happy Endings," must having
something going on that's very
much to Jennifer Lopez's liking,
since he's attached to two of her
upcoming projects.
Roos will direct the singer-actress
in "Love and Other Impossible
Pursuits," based on Ayelet
Waldman's best-selling novel about
a woman who must adapt to step-
motherhood after the tragic loss of
her own child.
Roos is writing the scripts for
both "Pursuits" and "The
Governess," a comedy starring
Lopez as a con artist who
infiltrates a rich widower's
home by signing on as
nanny to his children;
complications naturally
ensue when she falls for
the widower.
Expect to see lots of
smoochy interviews
with the happy cou-
ple when both films
open in 2009.
Mays sings out with 'Glee'
Jayma Mays, better known as Henry's
grumpy pregnant fiancee Charlie on "Ugly
Betty" is returning to the tube in a new
project from Ryan Murphy, the prolific gay
writer-producer behind "Nip/Tuck,"
"Running with Scissors" and any number
of other pending TV and movie projects.
Set to launch next year as a companion
piece for "American Idol," Murphy's new
sitcom, "Glee," centers around 30-ish
teacher Will (dishy Matthew Morrison,
from Broadway's "Hairspray"), who gets
stuck being the advisor to the high school
glee club, a haven for misfits and outcasts.
May will play the school's guidance
counselor, who has a crush on Will. Hmm
... gay creator, glee club, outcasts, misfits
— the mind reels.
See just how homo-inclusive "Glee" is
when it premieres on Fox next March.
Hailey to star in 'L Word' spinoff
If you started an office pool for "Which
'L Word' Character Will Be Featured in the
Spinoff?" then give the money to whomev-
er picked Alice Pieszecki.
The occasionally flaky and allegedly
bisexual (it's been a while since a dude
turned her head) NPR commentator
played by Leisha Hailey will survive the
demise of the popular Showtime soap after
its final season in early 2009 and live on in
a spinoff series.
The pilot episode will be written and
produced by "L Word" creator Ilene
Chaiken, but there's no news regarding
what the show's going to be about or
which, if any, "L Word" staffers will join
Alice on her continuing journey.
Oh, Leisha — you've come a long way
from those Yoplait ads!
Filming on the new show begins in
December.
David Beckham: The Musical?
He's a high-fashion underwear model,
an aggressively pro-tolerance figure in the
world of international sports, and he's mar-
ried to a Spice Girl.
Is it any wonder that gay men every-
where adore David Beckham?
And if those Armani tighty-whitey bill-
boards weren't enough to put you on Team
Becks, this might: His life is about to
become the subject of a musical in
London's West End.
Writer and producer Mark Archer is
working on "David Beckham: The Theatre
of Dreams," which would chart Beckham's
rags-to-riches conquest of the soccer world
and his romance with Victoria, the artist
formerly known as Posh Spice.
No word yet regarding casting or pro-
duction dates, so that may give London's
hot young musical theater stars time to
work on honing up their football skills.

What are your plans for Pride?
I'm excited because
this year for the first
time 111 get to see
the parade. Last year
I was working as a
bartender. I'm going
to go out and enjoy
the day with friends
and just kind of take
it all in."
"I'm going to walk
with the Dallas
Diablos rugby team.
It'll be a great expe-
rience to walk in
front of all those
people."
"We're going to see
what kind of trouble
we can stir up. We
haven't been in a
few years."
"I'm probably not
going to make it
because I have three
kids. I thought about
bringing them, but
there's one you
wouldn't even want
to take out of the
house."

"I'm excited because
some friends from
out of town will be
here, one from
Chicago and one
from Tyler. I'm excited
to see my friends."
