Tonight on Bravo, from 7- 9:pm, the GLAAD Media Awards will air. Even if you attended one of the ceremonies held in LA, New York, San Francisco or Miami, chances are - unless you are a GLAAD staffer or something - that you've seen more than one of the ceremonies. This telecast brings them all together!

The pics I've posted are all from the LA ceremony in April and are reason enough to check out this show. Kathy Griffin and her mother had a really cute bit at the start of the show at the Kodak Theatre. Kathy, of course, was ver bad - thank God!

Here is a list of all the other stars you will see tonight: still my crush after all these years Kevin Bacon; "The L Word" star Jennifer Beals and the show's creator Ilene Chaiken; the gorgeous Cindy Crawford; the amazingly talented Wilson Cruz; the awesome Alan Cumming; the great star Loretta Devine of "Dreamgirls" and "Eli Stone,"; Sally Field who I really, really like; the very sexy Tom Ford; visionary MTV exec Brian Graden; lovely Mariska Hargitay; "American Idol" judge Randy Jackson; sweetie pie T.R. Knight of "Grey's Anatomy"; hilarious Alec Mapa; talk show host Graham Norton; courageous activist Judy Shepard; ultra cool Kyra Sedgwick of TV's "The Closer"; outspoken Sharon Stone; singer Joss Stone; legendary Barbara Walters and honoree Rufus Wainwright.

And how's this for an added bonus? The awards telecast will be immediately followed by the basic cable premiere of the critically acclaimed, Academy Award-winning film "Brokeback Mountain," which also received the award for Outstanding Film - Wide Release at the 17th Annual GLAAD Media Awards. "Brokeback" is always worth seeing again and again. And even before star Heath Ledger died, I still would watch and think about how much he deserved to win the Oscar that year for best actor. It will remain one of the best performances on film - ever.
