Father's Day

Clay Aiken and Parker
Clay Aiken

October 2008

Becoming a father led to another life-changing decision for Clay Aiken, 29, the American Idol runner-up whose awkward charm, flat-ironed red hair and soulful sound inspired a curious and deeply devoted cult of music fans who call themselves Claymates. Long dogged by rumors about his sexuality, Aiken decided the time had come for him to publicly acknowledge what he's known privately since he was in college: He's gay.

Says Aiken: "It was the first decision I made as a father. I cannot raise a child to lie or to hide things. I wasn't raised that way, and I'm not going to raise a child to do that."


Ricky Martin, Matteo and Valentio
Ricky Martin

December 2008

"I’m going to concentrate on becoming a better, stronger, more complete person. All throughout my career — a career I’ve pursued since I was twelve — I have had to make sure to please people and ensure that people were happy with the things I was doing. At this moment, though, I’m focusing on what makes me happy. My sons are happy and they’re going to grow up being sure of themselves. When they ask a question, they will always receive an answer given with the utmost honesty and sincerity. They’re not going to feel ‘different,’ because there are hundreds — thousands — of children all over the world who are raised solely by their mothers or only by their fathers. I’m choosing to focus on the light, not the dark.

I always knew a wanted to be a father. I have such happy childhood memories of my own dad, and I thought it was important to share that kind of love with children of my own.

I felt a real need to see myself reflecting in my children’s eyes, that’s why I decided to go with a surrogate. It was the best option for me at this point in my life. There are people who think that science and medicine don’t go with God, but I see art and God’s hand in each and every one of my sons’ movements, in each smile and every cry. This whole process has been a spiritual one for me. Becoming a parent has been a blessing."

March 29, 2010

If someone asked me today, "Ricky, what are you afraid of?" I would answer "the blood that runs through the streets of countries at war...child slavery, terrorism...the cynicism of some people in positions of power, the misinterpretation of faith." But fear of my truth? Not at all! On the contrary, It fills me with strength and courage. This is just what I need especially now that I am the father of two beautiful boys that are so full of light and who with their outlook teach me new things every day. To keep living as I did up until today would be to indirectly diminish the glow that my kids were born with.

Somewhere in the Air, USA — I am on the way down to the Gulf Coast as I write (Delta has wifi!) to go out on the water in the Gulf tomorrow, and attempt to help clean up the Louisiana beaches impacted by the BP oil spill.

Joining us on the trip are Sophia Bush and Austin Nichols of One Tree Hill, the TV show. While they have the amazing ability to get nearly 20,000 twitter followers (@SophiaBush, @AUS10NICHOLS) in just a few days, they are just like many of us — angry about the spill, and wanting to help

Megan Fox is one lady who doesn't mince her words. As Sky Showbiz found out first-hand when we interviewed her at the Jonah Hex premiere in Los Angeles.

While the lady herself is charming, we can't help but wonder if her parting words were a bit of a dig at Prince of Persia star Jake Gyllenhaal.

Watch our video and decide.

I don't think so. You're forgetting that the guy who tweeted about Jake and Marcus lives in London and he makes no reference in his other tweets about being in Tenn at the festival. The tweet was from June 16, Mumford and Sons' concert at Bonnaroo was on June 12. Why would he wait 4 days to write something so generic? His tweet was most likely a comment on the pics of Jake and Marcus coming out of Lamill.


Fucking hell that gave me a headache. That's worse than Ted on pills and that's saying something!

The point is the obvious triangle of links.

Who cares about some dude sat there tweeting at 6 in the morning in London while so and so was somewhere and blah blah blah.

How do you know that guy is even who he says he is in the place he says he is? Fucking bloody tweets. Everyone sets their watches and lives to these things as if they're all true. Jesus wept.

Let me tell you something little lady, I know Jake and Austin spent QUALITY time together in Texas back when all of you guys thought he was moping around LA or cycling with the bros. If Jake wants to be somewhere to see someone he'll make time and it won't get reported because he has people to make sure it don't get reported.

Remember 50 Years Ago When Time Was Reporting Fantastical Theories About Gays? said...

A lot has happened in the newsweekly magazine space over the last few decades. Namely, they've become less read and less relevant! Blame cable news and blogs and Twitter. But like the rest of the media and America, they've gradually transformed from printed homophobic theory into well-reasoned discussion factories on LGBT politics and life. Let's take Time magazine as a case study, shall we?

A user on MetaFilter examined some of Time's gay archives from the 1950s thru 70s to document how the copy changed, which itself is a case study showing how the magazine's queer slant evolved.

Here's a snippet from 1956 "Curable Disease?":

"What is homosexuality? Is it curable? Some recent misleading propaganda alleges that homosexuality is an incurable, hereditary condition, and that the homosexual way of life is therefore "normal" for an unspecified proportion of the population . . . Not so says Manhattan Psychoanalyst Edmund Bergler. In Homosexuality: Disease or Way of Life? (Hill and Wang; $5), published last week, he swiftly demolishes some popular misconceptions.

Homosexuality, says Analyst Bergler, is neither a "biologically determined destiny, nor incomprehensible ill luck." In Freudian terms he traces a complicated pattern of the development of homosexuality from infantile frustrations, through "pleasure in displeasure." to unconscious psychic masochism. The full-grown homosexual, as Bergler sees him, wallows in self-pity and continually provokes hostility to ensure himself more opportunities for self pity he "collects" injustices—sometimes real, often fancied; he is full of defensive malice and flippancy, covering his depression and guilt with extreme narcissism and superciliousness. He refuses to acknowledge accepted standards even in nonsexual matters, assuming that homosexuals have a right to cut moral corners as compensation for their "suffering." He is generally unreliable, in an essentially psychopathic way."

TIME's evolution is a reflection of the times and all kinds of media will continue to evolve; I'm sure any news weekly or paper you would examine would be the same.

Posted on WDW

Here is part of an interview Jake conducted with the French Film Studio Live and it's a goodie with some more about Love and Other Drugs (excuse, as always, the (mis)translation): 'I learned of Prince of Persia as a film for the whole family, like a tale that should be read aloud, and it changed my way of acting. I played Prince Dastan as if I were telling a story to a child - and to the child in all of us. I rush around with a sword in my hand, I'm fighting with the princess, I embrace, I fight, I jump from roof to roof, it was so much fun.'

Directors: 'I just finished a movie with Edward Zwick, Love and Other Drugs, and we were two friends, like members of the same team but he was the leader. It was amazing. Then I made a completely different film, and what matters is being able to adapt and do what is expected of you. I'd hope that a director has an open heart. I'd hope that we respected each other. I like a director to be confident, but he can also be vulnerable, and we can all ask: Can I redo a scene a hundred times if it means that the result will be a great movie?'

'Several of the directors that I worked with told me I should do the role because the story interests me more than for the performance itself as an actor. If I'm told I have a choice between being an extraordinary actor or be in an extraordinary film, I'd choose the second option. It's the story and narrative that stay in people's minds. Importantly, this is not me in a movie, that's what we are trying to tell the public.'

The Oscar nomination 'is the dream of every actor. At the age when it happened, I felt that it was premature - but I was thrilled! It helps a lot in terms of one's career. The perception people had of me has changed, but I don't know if that's just due to my performance or the film itself. I remember how totally surreal it was to hear my name mentioned along with all those other amazing actors. What moved me most was to be made a member of the Academy, and to be told that I was part of this community of artists who created such great films.'

If there is a movie that made Jake understand more about the business: 'Curiously, this happened while shooting my last film, Love and Other Drugs. Maybe it happened a bit late! They told me one day: "It starts with blind ambition, you don't know why we do what we do, we think we know, and then gradually we begin to understand what motivates us". With this film, something fell into place, I started to see who I was and what I did, and it was very liberating. Any business is competitive, one tries to find one's own voice... "No, I'll just be me and we'll see where it will take me."'

'Q: Your sister, Maggie, told me that all the films she has performed are fragments of herself. Do you feel that too?' Jake: 'That's beautifully said and it's very true. My brother [the actor Peter Sarsgaard] told me one day there was an immediate response in the theatre, whereas in the cinema, you hear the answer a year after filming. And because we are in the character's skin for a long time, one can not help thinking that this response, positive or negative, falls on us, as human beings - things are mixed. But no, it is only a performance. I think that is why Maggie spoke of fragments... What you put in a movie is true at that time, and corresponds to what we are at that moment.'

Anonymous said...

Does it hurt Jake that some films, like Brothers, are less well-received than others? 'A close friend's grandfather survived the Holocaust and he often says, very simply: "Things are what they are." It helps me tremendously. I am privileged to continue making films, and what matters is the time to make a film like Brothers. I have no control over the rest. It's the experience on set that is important. Then, the film follows its path. Donnie Darko was a flop when it came out... and now there's not a day when you don't hear about it. Things find their proper place, and we must just agree to follow.'

'Q: Did you feel pressure to sell yourself by making certain movies?' Jake: 'I felt this pressure, it exists, and I've not always responded clearly. But to feel this pressure and to give in to it are two different things. I made some choices that were well thought out, and others which were totally instinctive. I have not always been clear in my choices, but I tried. And I think I try more and more the older I get and I learn to trust my heart. Sometimes it feels wrong, sometimes it hurts, it can be difficult, but if we have enough confidence in our heart, most of the time, down the road, you get rewarded, even if there were painful moments. And that's true for everything in life.'

Dear Armed Gaard:
Take a deep breath, McC, Peter and Maggie are as real as they come. Besides, it's not like Maggie's exactly fake-trophy-wife material. But they've also got their kink on, too, no worries.


Dear Ted:
Am I the only one who thinks Renée Zellweger is looking pretty rough these days and who wonders what Bradley Cooper sees in her?

Dear Southern Zell:
You're definitely not alone there, sweets. She must be great in the sack to have landed a hunk like Bradley. I'll disagree, though—she's not looking rough ‘these days." It's all days, ever since she got her Oscar for Cold Mountain. Why doesn't anybody talk about the Academy-Award curse for looks, too? It's always only about love and career.


Dear Ted:
Any news about Maroon 5's frontman Adam Levine? Love him and I was wondering if he has ever been a Blind Vice or if he is B.V. material?

What exactly is gestational surrogacy?

Gestational surrogacy involves In Vitro Fertilization where reportedly “fertilized eggs from another woman are implanted into the surrogate’s uterus”.

So, in basic English, the woman who gave birth to Ricky Martin’s twins is not the twins’ biological mother. Traditional surrogacy, however, is done via artificial insemination, when “the surrogate using her egg and another man’s sperm”.

Naomi Watts cannot bring herself to watch Heath Ledger's final film, The Imaginarium Of Doctor Parnassus, because it is too confronting.

The Aussie actress dated Ledger for two years between 2002 and 2004.

For Watts, her grief over Ledger's 2008 death is still too raw.

"I've always loved Terry Gilliam's films. And Heath was an unbelievably brilliant talent," she told Britain's Marie Claire magazine.

"I'm sure he's wonderful to watch. But yeah, it's kind of ... confronting."

Watts, 41, is now engaged to fellow actor Liev Schreiber. They have two young sons together.

Joseph Gordon-Levitt first showed up on Hollywood’s radar co-starring with John Lithgow in the television 90s series 3rd Rock From The Sun. He also earned himself a spot in the 90s teen comedy hall of fame with 10 Things I Hate About You. However, he really came into his own as an actor with 2005′s neo-noir Brick. He also gave a phenomenal performance last year in the indie hit (500) Days of Summer, for which he was nominated for a Golden Globe and an Independent Spirit Award.

Peter Sarsgaard’s first major role was in 1999′s Boys Don’t Cry. Since then he has been in a series of hits and misses, film wise. Regardless, Sarsgaard goes on my list of people who are always good despite the film’s quality. My favorite of his performances in 2005′s Jarhead. His performance was critically well received and he earned early Oscar buzz, but failed to receive a nomination.

Liev Schreiber made his first impact on Hollywood as Cotton Weary in the wildly successful Scream franchise. In 1999 in co-starred with Diane Lane and Viggo Mortensen in A Walk On The Moon and Denzel Washington in The Hurricane. My favorite performance of his is as Laertes in the 2000 version of Hamlet. Schreiber goes on my list of actors who are always wonderful whether the film they’re in is or not.

The jaustinloons scavenge for any link they can between Jake and Austin, then they spin that to imply more than friendship. For example, the idiot at 10:23 -- "Afraid that there's a lot more to it than that?"

10:23 AM, don't even try to pull that shit. No one said Jake and Austin aren't friends, it's the grasping at straws that we've had enough of, like the Dodgers guy is Austin's close friend from TX and now that Adam and Austin are friends. You can't claim that and expect posters to believe you. Either post the pictures or accept we don't have to take your word for it.

Just because people like Katz and Sophia are their mutual friends, it doesn't mean that all Jake's friends are Austin's friends too and vice-versa.

will always believe that Heath and Naomi were right for each other. Pity he wasn't ready for commitment. The thing with Michelle was mostly a joke imo, except for the beginning stages of the ship maybe. Liev seems to be a solid guy, however, I think they are mostly together because of their boys."

I completely agree with you. There have been rumors that Naomi and Liev have been on the rocks for awhile now. I think Heath was the love of Naomi's life (and vice versa) but it was bad timing when they were together: She wanted a family--he didn't because he was still too young. A real shame. I do admire how honestly she has spoken about him. I was touched when she recently admitted that she still can't make sense of his death and still dreams about him.

Remember her reaction to his death? She was visibly so grief-stricken that someone posted on her imdb.com board to stop acting like the widow when she wasn't (and when she had a partner and child).

I've seen pictures of Austin with the members of Maroon 5. I don't know if it is still the case, but Maroon 5 used to have a link to the website for Claire Oswalt--Austin's ex--. She used to have sketches up of some of Jake and Austin's friends, like Matthew Katz Frost.

That's right, it shows that Austin is friends with the guys in Maroon 5. Someone kept insisting that we were making it up that Adam and Austin are friends.

But just keep spinning that Jake and Austin have nothing to do with each other and ignore the fact that like a lot of couples, they share friends.

Anonymous said...

Okay, even though I don't believe they are "in a committed relationship for over 6 years," (and to be honest, I don't think that that's exactly what Ted said - he's also written stuff about Toothy and other guys, so that pretty much eliminates the "committed" part. And I absolutely believe what JG Francis wrote on his blog, and that also eliminates the committed part) But, even if they were still a couple as you believe, you believe they are a deeply closeted couple, right? That's why they rarely go out in public together, and recently only with a beard, right? So if they're going to be so careful about that, it is absurd to think they actually set up housekeeping together and both come and go to the same place on a daily basis when they are in L.A. That would be way too risky and way too obvious. Of course Austin has his own home. It's called common sense.

When Austin was promoting JFC he said he had his two friends from Texas living with him. He's getting kind of old for shacking up wiht a bunch of friends. I think it is possible he uses that as a "home" to distract from where he really lives.

Please spare me this tired old argument. Have you ever heard of gated communities? If you believe everything Jake's PR does is smoke and mirrors to protect the longtime relationship with Austin then they could easily live together if they wanted to. But they don't. How many pictures of Jake in front of his home are there? Sorry, what you posted are excuses why they don't live together not a good reason.

You want to believe they don't live together, fine. That's your opinion. But stop playing dumb. You have ZERO evidence that Jake and Austin live alone. A reference to streaking in Venice doesn't equal not living with Jake. A celebrity in the closet is not going to talk about living with their boyfriend.

You are no more under their bed then anyone else here.

Stop pretending like the closet doesn't exist. By your twisted logic Jake (and Austin) never have anyone in their homes or in their beds--be it each other, rent boys or hookups.

What does going to a bar at 5:30 a.m. have to do with it? Lots of sports fans like to go watch games in bars because the buzz of the crowd adds to the enjoyment. You're obviously not a sports nut or you would know that.

And getting up and going to a bar doesn't make sense if you're single and can sit around in your underwear on your sofa at that hour. But it might make sense if you don't want to wake up a hubby and sleeping child.

You're not serious. You have that backwards. Bars are FULL OF SINGLE PEOPLE THAT ARE NOT SITTING AT HOME IN THEIR UNDERWEAR ON THEIR SOFAS. That's what single people do. It's the married couples that sit home with their children. And "Hubby" wasn't at home with any child, sleeping or otherwise. He was at the Laker's game in person and out to dinner with friends.

Celebs at Larry King's Disaster In The Gulf Telethon

Gathering together to raise much-needed funds to help with the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico, Larry King brought out his celebrity pals to the CNN Building in Los Angeles, California on Monday evening (June 21).

With Ryan Seacrest, Ke$ha, Nicole Richie and Pete Wentz among those on-hand, the Hollywood stars busily answered phones during the two-hour telethon special "Disaster in the Gulf: How You Can Help".

In the end, Larry and the gang raked in over $1 million to be dished out to United Way, the National Wildlife Foundation and the Nature Conservancy.

With Justin Bieber recording a special message for the event, other big names pitching in on the worthwhile cause included Cameron Diaz, Chelsea Handler, Jenny McCarthy, Giuliana Rancic, Kathy Griffin, Ryan Seacrest, Alyssa Milano and Ian Somerhalder.
