Four gay men figure out their romantic and sexual desires.
“I will never truly understand the gays,” murmurs Penny, the only anatomically correct female in Eating Out: The Open Weekend. She is watching as, at a neighbouring table, her best friend’s double brunch date turns porno. Watching the fifth sequel in Q Allan Brocka’s comedy film series left me feeling equally unenlightened about the gays. Every character is reducible down to a variation on the theme of sexually open, pop-culture-quoting and hot.
Which isn’t to say this 79-minute soap opera is unentertaining....

Washington State passed a law to recognize marriage from other states as domestic partnerships, and to fully recognize domestic partnerships from states like Illinois. Baby steps.
Carson Daly took to Twitter to express his outrage that Britney Spears’ people were demanding a pre-taped interview, with editing rights before broadcast. I did a little checking, and I couldn’t find any journalists who would agree to those terms.
Well, one way to deflect the hate from Rebecca Black was to have Miley Cyrus snipe “It should be harder to be an artist. You shouldn't just be able to put a song on YouTube and go on tour." Yeah, like be born to a one-hit-wonder with a hunger to reclaim his fame through his offspring.
