This is almost as bad as the episode of "Sex and the City" when Jack Berger, the author Carrie dated after the second break-up with Aiden, broke up with her with a POST-IT NOTE!
Carson Kressley, who's riding high these days with his "How to Look Good Naked" series and is doing a pilot for a talk show on Lifetime, was dumped by his boyfriend of eight months, an Australian named George Maloukis, via email!

To make matters worse, George went ahead and talked about it on the Aussie radio show 2Day FM on Friday: "I sent him an email. I know it's wrong and I feel really bad. I just came home one day and I sent him an email, not thinking. Then I thought about it and sent him another email the next day saying I was so so sorry. I felt bad the way it was done."

George said the two were faithful to each other during the relationship and wouldn't divulge the reasons why he wanted the split: "There were a lot of reasons why. I was annoyed with him for a number of things. ... I can't tell you the real reasons [for the break-up] I am going to give him the respect."

George wanted to make one thing clear though: "I was never with Carson for the money. When I went to America, Carson paid for my ticket but I paid my own way."

I dunno. Maybe he just never forgave Carson for wearing those punk speedos to the beach!

"Grey's Anatomy" star T.R. Knight and his boyfriend Mark Cornelson took their dogs for an outing on Wednesday. I just love posting pictures of this happy couple.

I just love summer love. Here are "Grey's Anatomy" star TR Knight and boyfriend Mark Cornelson out and about on a recent afternoon in Los Angeles. They are soooooo cute together.

Reichen Lemkuhl and Ryan Berry were the picture of bliss the other night at The Abbey during the Love and Pride Commitment Ceremony. The two best looking guys in the room were both wearing white but they aren't getting married anytime soon. "That's the question of the day," Ryan remarked to me after the umpteenth time he was asked about it.

The couple had a widely-publicized falling out a few months ago but have clearly patched things up. Reichen told me: "We're doing OK. We're happy to be here. We're not getting married today but we're really happy for those that can."

Ryan added: "I say ditto."

Even though he and Ryan and not ready to take the marital plunge, I wanted to get Reichen's thoughts on same-sex marriage becoming legal in California: "I thought, 'Finally. It's about time.' It just makes sense. It's a situation where you really weigh the constitutionality of taking away someone's rights. It just doesn't work in this country."

It had slipped Reichen's mind that season three of "Dante's Cove" was released on Tuesday but he was happy to talk about the show that has given him his most substantial acting role to date. He more than held his own among the more experienced cast and will be back for the fourth season as Trevor.

"He had a little bit of actiivity last season when he was new to Dante's Cove but rumor has it that he's coming back with a vengeance this season so I'm excited about that. We were going to start production this summer but the scare of an actors strike has sort of halted everything. So we're waiting to hear when it makes more sense to go ahead and start production because we';ll be shooting either in Hawaii or New Zealand. You don't want to get all your stuff out there if everyone's on strike. But it is going to happen, it's just a matter of when."

Ryan is busy too these days and on Thursday hosted a LA Gay Pride Kick-off bash held by Armani and Out Magazine benefitting the Young Professional's Council: "I support anything that helps people come out and being true to themselves and shaking off that double life," he said.

This just in from Lambda Legal: It's an unforgettable day for same-sex couples and advocates of fairness and opportunity across the nation! The California Supreme Court has ruled that the state may no longer exclude same-sex couples from civil marriage. We are so proud.

Lead counsel NCLR, Lambda Legal, the ACLU and Equality California have been fighting for this victory for four years and today we have made history! But we must all do what we can to make sure that discrimination is not written into the state constitution in California through a ballot initiative.

I posted yesterday about Reichen Lehmkuhl's split from model Ryan Barry and his posting of Ten Rules for Dating In Hollywood as well as the remark: "You Shady Lying Sack of (expletive). You're BEYOND Gross. What an Idiot I Have Been!"

He now regrets displaying such raw emotion online and posted the following statement on his MySpace page: We all experience pain, but venting on MySpace isn't right. I'm sorry and I regret it. I was emotional and I don't feel any of the things I've said. And whoever I've dated that it could have been directed toward is and was never the way I may have described. I was venting on life and frustration and I apologize for offending anyone or for making myself look childish.

On the page, Reichen indicates that he is also on his way to Brazil. That would certainly cheer me up!

Is this just adorable or what?

Usually TMZ.com has total Britney-itis but I'm glad to see that earlier today they posted this nice shot of TR Knight and his new boyfriend Mark Cornelsen who the site describes as a freshman at San Francisco State University.

It's nice to see TR out and about and happy...

So I'm on the sofa watching an "I Love Lucy" episode, turn on the laptop and go to my Facebook page. The first thing that popped up in my newsfeed is this: Ryan Barry is no longer listed as "in a relationship."

So, of course, I'm wondering if he and Reichen Lemkuhl have split up. When I saw Reichen last week at the IN Magazine party I innocently asked: "Where's Ryan?" I was told he was working and didn't think anything of it until now.

So, I'm figuring something is up. But still seeking confirmation.

First there was the red carpet kiss, or almost kiss. And now Ewan McGregor and Colin Farrell admit, with a wink, that the stars of "Cassandra's Dream" are the hot new couple.
The following exchange was reported in Metro.co.UK today:
Ewan: "Me and Colin Farrell lovers? Yes. You heard it here first. Friends, lovers, all of those things."
Colin, walked up behind him on the red carpet in Toronto and confirmed it: "We're lovers, but only physically. No movies, no dinners, or long meaningful conversations caring about how the other person is doing in their lives...We just like to make love every now and then. Once a year is going to be the deal, like Woody Allen makes his films....We're going to make love once a year. He does look well, doesn't he? Very dapper. It's the accent as well that gets me."
Ewan: "I'm going to watch a film with people who like to watch films. Then Colin and I are going to go crazy!"

I know they are kidding but it's still kinda hot.

I'd like to think that this blog is above doing more than one post in a single day about actors Wentworth Miller ("Prison Break") and Luke MacFarlane ("Brothers & Sisters" hanging out together.
Yeah, I'd LIKE to think so.
JustJared.com has posted the details of their outing and I, realizing there is interest, want to share those details with you. It's pretty SCANDALOUS: According to spywitnesses, the pair first avoided being photographed together, but eventually walked down the street together with a smile. Their day off together began with a visit to Kinkos where Wentworth surfed the web. Next stop: Starbucks. They then headed to a small art gallery in Culver City. And before calling it a day, they hit the In-N-Out Burger drive-thru.
No idea if they ordered a double-double, animal style.

"Prison Break" star Wentworth Miller and Luke MacFarlane (our beloved Scotty from "Brothers & Sisters") were photographed spending time together recently. These pics were just posted on Towleroad.com without any conclusions jumped to...

Lance Bass, now appearing in the Broadway production of "Hairspray," has apparently broken up with his Brazillian boyfriend after just two months. Oh well, it must have been fun while it lasted!

Hey wait a minute.
Wasn't Lance Bass NOT gonna talk about his new boiyfriend? Well, that lasted for about five minutes and if I was dating someone that good lookin, I'd blab about it too. Bass talked to People mag (of course) about connecting with the hunky Brazilian model Pedro Andrade who he first spotted him 35,000 feet up in the air.
"He was asleep in the back of the plane on the way over," the former 'N Sync star said of the Brazilian model, who was also en route to Vienna for the May 28 Life Ball. "I was like, 'He's really cute.'"
At the time Andrade, according to designer Richie Rich, was working at the Austrian event as a model for Heatherette.
"It's so fresh and new," Bass said. "The good thing is learning everything about him. He's really great . . . amazing."
Bass said that it took some time to get over his break-up with Reichen Lehmkuhl last December – but he's enjoying the dating life. "It's the first time I've ever been able to date, so it's nice to go out ? and get to know people and not jump into a relationship right away, which I usually do."

Lance Bass may be dating the gorgeous model Pedro Andrade, but he doesn't want anyone thinking he's got a new boyfriend.
“He's just a friend,” Bass, 28, told Usmagazine.com during a party in his Hollywood Hills home on July 7. “We are just friends now. I guess you can say we're dating because we've been on multiple dates, but it's nothing exclusive. I'm freshly out of a relationship.”
Bass broke up with Reichen Lehmkuhl for over four months now.
“...I've never dated in my adult gay life,” he said. “I need to do that. Mainly I don't want to date anyone right now because I'm so focused on my career, which I haven't been for the last four years.”

That Tori Spelling. What's she gonna do to surprise us next?
The no-TORI-ous Donna Martin, a two-time bride herself and a new mom, is now officially ordained and officiated over her first wedding at her bed-and-breakfast Inn Chateau where her latest reality show is set. What I love is that the first couple she married were two men!
She describes it herself in her blog: "It was so beautiful as I united Tony and Dex as life partners in love. They wrote their own beautiful vows and there was so much love surrounding them that there wasn’t a dry eye in the driveway! I was beyond nervous though. I’ve done live theater and presented at The Emmys and this by far was my scariest moment simply because they had bestowed such an honor upon me and I didn’t want to let them down."

We are now getting a feel for Lance Bass' taste in men: gorgeous. He has moved on from hunky Reichen to New York-based Brazilian model, Pedro Andrade. According to the site, Queerty, the couple made their public debut on July 4th at Sag Harbor’s The Estate. How convenient that Andrade lives in NYC since Bass, next month, begins a lengthy run on the Broadway state in "Hairspray."
Good for him!

The pics, squiggles and caption are from PerezHilton.com: "Spotted: hottie Neil Patrick Harris and his equally hot boyfriend, fellow actor David Burtka, at the UPRIGHT Cabaret show in West Hollywood this past Friday. So nice to see them out and about together!"

I agree that NPH and David Burtka are "hot" but coming from Perez, it rings somewhat hollow given his ferocious effort to force Harris out of the closet last fall after his former publicist insisted that Harris was not gay. The actor had never discussed his sexuality.

I dunno. Maybe it's for good, maybe not. These crazy kids. I almost posted about this last week but wanted to wait and see if it stuck. Apparently it has since Lance has confirmed it to People.com: We broke up last week," Bass tells People. "But we're really good friends. Nothing bad at all – nothing bad at all to say."
The couple had announced in early December that they were splitting though trying to work on their relationship. "We remain the best of friends," they told People in an exclusive statement Dec. 4. "Please respect our privacy as we try to work things out during this difficult time."

The UK's OK Magazine has exclusive pictures and an interview with John Barrowman and Scott Gill about their recent nuptials. Here is a taste of it with more to come in an update later.
Barrowman on relationships: "Relationships are work. We've had clashes but what I have learned from my parents is never go to bed angry...We are a couple who will get through any humps or bumps in the road. But we are not in an open relationship...If we ever split, we're rational. We'll talk about it. But I don't have as much money as Paul McCartney and I'm not married to a gold-digger."

I had never spoken to Marc Malkin until yesterday when he weighed in on my David Beckham is coming to LA story. But now I'm familiar with his Planet Gossip site and it is terrific. He has what he says is the first picture of Alan Cumming and Grant Shaffer's wedding in London. Festivities included the couple's first skate on a rented ice rink. Cumming has said he would have preferred getting married in the U.S.

Read Marc's post on the wedding at Planet Gossp which is part of the E! Online site.
