Not that there's anything wrong with that!
romijn.jpgYou had the gorgeous transexual Alexis (Rebecca Romijn, pictured left) making out with her ex-girlfriend (she was Alex when they were together) and the ex is played by gorgeous Jordan (Rebecca Gayheart, pictured below, right)).
When Alexis apologizes for dumping her without explanation, Jordan says: "It's OK. This is who you're supposed to be. By the way, the boobs are amazing."
Alexis replies: "They're [modeled after] yours. The nose is Kate Winslet."
Then there's the buff and beautiful fashion designer Tavares (Mykel Shannon Jenkins, pictured below) pretending to be gay because "I tried being straight in this business and it just did not work out." He looked sensational in the tight red short he was wearing in a party scene but his attempts to gay it up were a bit too sterotypical for me to really enjoy.
MykelShannonL.jpgThen Marc (Michael Urie) begins to get jealous because his pal Amanda (Becki Newton) is blowing him off to spend time with another gay man: "We were supposed to rent '300' to watch the semi-homophobic and semi-homoerotic content!" he complains. He doesn't realize Jordan and Tavares are hooking up until he catches them swapping spit at the party. Exclaims Mark: "OMG! He's pretending to be gay! That's a new twist on an old standard."
When scheming Willhelmina (Vanessa Williams) finds out Tavaras is straight, she sighs: "This is my first public inning."
Funny stuff. And so gay!

Jokes about 'inning' someone and pretending to be gay to get ahead are incredibly lame and stale... Will and Grace did that back in the episode with Matt Damon, where he was pretending to be gay to get into the Gay Men's Chorus... but that "semi-homoerotic, semi-homophobic" crack about '300' is one of the funniest things I've ever heard.
