Queen of Cunty Red Carpet Bitchery, Dead at 86
Mr. Blackwell, who the LA Times deemed ‘the Sultan of Sartorial Sass‘ and who birthed a cottage industry of red carpet fashion critiquing, died Sunday at the ripe old age of 86.
Clay Aiken’s Coming Out Timeline: A Walk Down Gag-Reflex Lane
Apparently Clay Aiken has come out. Don’t everyone line up at once, now! After the jump, an annotated history of the longest coming out process in the history of man.
The Sword Gay Mid-Terms: Sex and Culture Edition
We know, we know: You’re hungover from last night, can’t stand to hear one more thing about Marc Jacobs and are amazed at how much air time the pregnant man is getting. Thankfully, you’re about to be rewarded for your endless consumption of gay-centric news. We offer up yet again a month’s worth of free porn in return for your amazingly high score on your gay news mid-terms. It may not be that Ed Hardy jacket you’ve been saving up for, but it’ll have to do.
Finally, A Real-Life, Living, Breathing, Attractive Gay Person Makes The Cover Of The Advocate
“There was this scene where Popeye was captured by Brutus, tied up with no shoes or socks on, and Brutus starts tickling his feet. I remember getting a little boner,” Broadway idol Cheyenne Jackson tells The Advocate in this month’s issue, like a sick freak. Personally, we don’t like hearing about anyone’s little boner around here, and secondly, who gets turned on by cartoon characters with peculiar body proportions? Oh wait, we just didn’t read the article because it was boring and he was referring to when he was 7 years old. And oh wait, porn stars are cartoon characters with peculiar body proportions.
I Want My M4MTV: A User’s Guide To Gay Cable
Gay cable television stations are a little like porn star blogs. You keep hoping and hoping you’re going to find something worth paying attention to, but instead it’s all navel-gazing pep talks and GHB-fueled cautionary tales. Actually, we wish gay cable was that interesting-we took a break this weekend from the porno blogs to see how the non-oral-cumshot-hand-wringing-set entertains itself. We’re going back to smut tomorrow.
Blogs Breathlessly Await Anderson Cooper’s Outing, Mine Web for Anecdotes in the Meantime
Sure, we’re as smitten with CNN‘s Anderson Cooper as the next faggot-okay, maybe not totally as smitten-but we’ve never understood what the big deal is about celebrities coming out of the closet, especially if they don’t pretend to be straight in the first place like certain Will Smiths we know. Sites like Gawker and Queerty, however, have become so rabid in their anticipation of a grand gesture from Anderson that they’ve taken to reporting every detail they can find about him, however insignificant, and painstakingly analyzing how it relates to his sex life. Sometimes puzzling and often hilarious, we’ve sifted through the heap of Anderson- Cooper-isms that point to his gayness and present our favorites now.
Worst in Gay Marketing: Air New Zealand’s Pink Flight to Sydney Mardi Gras
What’s worse than a 14 hour flight? How about a 14 hour “gay” flight.
Generally on long flights (like the only slightly less homo-rific one we just took to Sydney ourselves) we like to pop a Valium, order an adult beverage (or two), kick back and drift off to sleep. The less we can be reminded that we’re trapped in a tube 30,000 feet up the better. No such luck for the gay early adopters who are booked on this headache.
As marketing departments scramble for new ways to shake you down for your dual-income-no-kids disposable gay dollar, they seemed to have reached a new low in pandering.
When the Rainbow Is Not Enuf: A Dispatch from Sydney Mardi Gras
Homosexuals are a hearty, tote-friendly breed and generally eager to escape
Columbus, or Palm Springs or wherever, in search of penis-friendly anuses
in tropical climes. As part of San Francisco’s first “official” delegation to the continent
of Australia, The Sword understands the need to find unexplored cultural
crevasses, and shall give you regular updates on the pre-Mardi Gras
festivities in our Sister City down under.
Dark Alley’s ‘8 1/2’ Taken Off GayVN Award Noms List at the Zero-th Hour
It’s difficult enough for us to fathom how members of the Academy sit through all of the bloated, three-hour Hollywood period-dramas that make up the list of nominees for the Oscars, so it’s not surprising that GayVN voters weren’t keen on watching every scene of every porno up for consideration at this year’s GayVN Awards. With movies like GRUNTS clocking in at six discs of material, how were the powers-that-be supposed to know that Dark Alley Media’s 8 1/2 contained a few moments of supposed barebacking content when their DVD players were set permanently on fast-forward? We first heard the story when Fleshbot reported yesterday that the studio, infamous for raising the bar on shock value with films about Jesus Christ’s crucifixion and Guantanamo Bay, had its scenes nominated from 8 1/2 (inches, in a nod to Fellini) inconspicuously removed from the nominations list on GayVN.com, and J.C. Adams confirmed the disqualification yesterday afternoon.
Lady Bunny, Houseplants To Host 2008 GayVNs
Faces-for-radio Derek Hartley and Romaine Patterson will host the newly revamped GayVN Awards in mid-February, GayPornTimes reported today. Drag legend and Lucas Entertainment star Lady Bunny will also be on hand to fight for the microphone. Derek and Romaine will bring their celebrated sixth-grade- late-night-phone-chat brand of entertainment to help enliven our industry’s annual rite of auto-fellatio, but honestly we’re more looking forward to the following inevitabilities:
1. Jason Sechrest Storms the Stage, Performs “The Trolley Song”
The director-cum-blogger-cum-publicity agent has already expressed his dissatisfaction with Derek and Romaine being chosen over him and Angel Benton, but we’re aching to see him make those threats a reality and do his patented porn-title-song-medley- in-the-style-of-Tori-Amos. Controversial!

If You Thought Your Taste In Music Was Gay, You’ve Never Been To Australia
Trust us, we have. For further attempts to live vicariously through us in the wake of our cheerful and overwhelmingly positive experience at Sydney Mardi Gras, there’s a new list on Australia’s premier gay megasite, SameSame.com.au, of the Top 50 Gayest Songs Ever. Accepting thousands of votes, the list includes songs like “New York City Boy” by the Pet Shop Boys, “Strong Enough” by Cher, RuPaul’s “Supermodel“, and “Wake Me Up Before You Go Go” (CHOOSE LIFE!) and that’s just in the first batch! Now, keeping in mind that Australia’s pop culture is certainly a little bit different than what we see in the United States, we have to say that this list is pretty universal as far as gays are concerned.

On the latest Tim and
Roma Show, the two “Best Personality” nominees (thanks for giving them big heads, Cybersocket!) wax political over how barebacking
titles seem to be gaining popularity and how the trend parallels increased HIV
rates among gay men. Too bad the episode didn’t air before the filming of British Bareback Vacation, because one
of the co-stars contracted HIV on the set and is now thinking of suing the
film’s producers in
order to prevent other young men from suffering the same fate.. Hasn’t anyone told him that being popular is
the ONLY THING THAT MATTERS? (via GayVN
