GLAAD Responds To Vince Vaughn, Dustin Lance Black Suggests J. Edger Hoover Was Gay But Not Cross-Dresser, New Dads David Burtka And Neil Patrick Harris Walk The Dogs, Literary James Franco Gets Not Great Reviews, Dirty Lens, Matthew Mitcham And Tom Daley Are Beyond Cute

Friday, GLAAD released a statement regarding the unfortunate statement made by Vince Vaughn defending his right to tell jokes about gays so as (and I’m paraphrasing) to point out our differences in order to bring us together, that statement made in response to the controversy surround the trailer for the film The Dilemma and demands that Universal Pictures cut a joke that is contingent on the pejorative used of the word gay. The statement by GLADD reads in part “Vince is right. Comedy does bring us together, unless one of us is the punchline. Then it pushes us apart.”

Dustin Lance Black in interviewed by Oliver Stone in the new issue of Interview (natch) and the two discuss Black’s upcoming work authoring the screenplay for Clint Eastwood’s film on FBI director J. Edger Hoover, to star Leonardo DiCaprio, the director, as previously posted, indicating the bio-picture will not focus on Hoover’s alleged sexual orientation, Black saying “I’m going to let Clint decide what he wants to do with the film, but the script is one. I didn’t find a lot of proof that Hoover cross-dressed. I think it was more a form of homophobia against him. Do I think J. Edger Hoover was gay? Yes. Do I think he cross-dressed? No. I think that was just one of the ways people tried to bash him because they probably had the sense he was gay. Did he ever put on a dress? Hell, I put on my mom’s undergarments when I was kid. I didn’t find much credible evidence that Hoover went out socially dressed up in women’s clothes.”

New dads David Burtka and Neil Patrick Harris spotted in Los Angeles Saturday morning taking their two dogs for a walk, the two terrifically sexy men welcoming twins Gideon and Harper via a surrogate early this month.

James Franco make his literary debut with Palo Alto, a collection of short stories the Los Angeles Times says “are all told in first-person by an inter-connected group of teenagers who share a zip code, a more than slightly self-congratulatory sense of ennui, and an identical, and increasingly trying, monotone.”
