  • BGay.com Lance Bass is the first openly gay dancer to appear on ABC's Dancing With the Stars but the former boybander says he never wanted a male partner on the show. "I think it would be so silly that it would just overshadow everything else going on," Bass tells me. "It would just be like making fun of something. But if it was another show with all guys dancing and all girls dancing, that's a different story. I think that's sexy." Lance Bass Didn't Want a Male Partner
  • Queerty: Robert M. Sanchez, the train conductor in the crash on Friday outside LA that killed 25 people, was gay. He moved to LA in 2000 with his partner, who took his own life in 2003. Train Conductor in California Crash is Gay
  • Towleroad: Brad Pitt has donated $100,000 to fight Proposition 8, the November ballot measure that would ban same-sex marriage in California by declaring marriage between a man and a woman. Said Pitt in a statement: "Because no one has the right to deny another their life, even though they disagree with it, because everyone has the right to live the life they so desire if it doesn't harm another and because discrimination has no place in America, my vote will be for equality and against Proposition 8."

  • Beautiful Mag: Blacks beach is known for many things. For starts, it is a popular beach in La Jolla, San Diego. Part of the beach lies in a state park where the nature is breath taking. And finally it is also a beach where nudity is legal and it is most probably the largest nude beach in the united states. But that is not the reason why Dylan Rosser went there last summer when he was visiting the west coast of the united states. Getting Rusty at Blacks Beach

  • Popwatch Blog: EW talked to Dan Gheesling, the 25-year-old Catholic school teacher from Michigan and quite possibly the nicest winner in Big Brother history, about his landslide victory, his thoughts about Jerry and what his girlfriend Monica asked him once the show was over.

  • Jossip: Farrah Fawcett is going to be pissed: Her ex-Love Story lover Ryan O'Neal was arrested this morning, along with their 23-year old son Redmond, with narcotics believed to be amphetamines.

  • Ok Magazine: Last weekend, Tina Fey made a brief, hilarious return to the Saturday Night Live stage to perform a picture-perfect impersonation of Republican Vice-Presidential candidate Sarah Palin in a skit that quickly became an internet phenomenon. And surprisingly, in a new interview, the Alaska governor admits to being both flattered and intimidated. Sarah Palin: I Was Tina Fey Before She Was Me!

  • Jonathan ChaseL.A. Mag Rag: In his column for The Village Voice NYC, Michael Musto implies that Anderson Cooper’s latest boyfriend is Jonathan Chase, you gays might know him from, Another Gay Movie. Is Jonathan Chase Anderson Coopers New Beau?

  • Defamer: Any Straight-to-Flopz masterpiece can top out below $100,000 theatrically, but it takes a special kind of crap to do so with a real star above the line. Take Surfer, Dude, the new Matthew McConaughey adventure-in-shirtlessness that found exactly zero takers at Rotten Tomatoes and not many more upon its release in 96 theaters nationwide: $36,497 worth, to be precise, likely prompting the actor/producer/placenta/vintner to wonder if perhaps he should have saved the comma in the film's title for the total gross.

Aarons takes a genealogical approach, collecting a variety of original source documents — FBI files, court transcripts, vital records, census information, and prison admission records not only from Sing-Sing, but also from other correctional facilities. The result is a 350-page book providing biographies of more than a dozen famous gangsters and lesser-known criminals and painting a broad canvas of Jewish criminality in New York City. The book is unique in another way – it provides statistics of about Jews who served time in Sing Sing, including the actual number incarcerated, the crimes they committed, and how they differed from their Irish and Italian counterparts. 8pm
