Beyoncé trash talks the Jacksons…

Beyoncé, who is known in the music industry for always being nice or at least trying, just trash talked a whole family of celebrities. And not any family, the Royal Family Of Pop – The Jackson.

“I grew up upper-class,” she said. “Private school, My dad had a Jaguar. We’re African-American and we work together as a family, so people assume we’re like the Jacksons. But I didn’t have parents using me to get out of a bad situation.”

Kuwait Crime: Transsexual Bonanza

 cross-dressers held
Kuwait : Three cross-dressers who were arrested by police in Salmiya have been referred to the concerned authorities, reports Arrouiah daily. According to security sources police acting on information rushed to a well-known café in Salmiya and whisked them away to a police station. They have been identified as a bedoun, a Kuwaiti and an Iraqi. At the time of arrest they were wearing a heavy make-up and dressed like women.

 

Really? What is the reason for the arrest? Too much make-up? Or just having some taste?

I don’t why people are being locked up for a victimless “crime.” This just goes to show how backwards a society is.

Must-Watch: Milk (2008)

milkposter08 I have been waiting for this movie for a long time. I am very familiar with Harvey Milk’s life and work. When rumors of this movie surfaced, I was both excited and anxious. I was afraid that in the hollywoodization of this film his life would be misrepresented and the issues not given the right treatment. I have to say that the movie does as much justice as can, considering  the fact that it has to squeeze in a person’s life in approximately two hours.

Sean Penn has always been an actor to reckon with and James Franco is just pure eye-candy. The movie goes back in time to depict the early days of the gay civil rights movement post-Stonewall and pre-HIV/AIDS. In a time that was drenched in ignorance and intolerance towards any sexual minority. San Francisco was center stage for the liberal front, where hippies, gays and other social outcasts gathered to fit in. In the process they managed to elect the first openly gay governmental figure in US history (if you don’t count Abraham Lincoln).

Obama supports another homophobe…

I don’t know what to make of this. I am excited about an Obama presidency, but this is the second time he does that. I mean, I could use the freedom of opinion card and say it is not representative of Obama, but I know that had it been a racist pastor his name wouldn’t have even been mentioned. This shows that the prop 8 protests weren’t loud enough and his advisors still don’t grasp who his following is. What a shame. Why is religion involved in the inauguration anyway?

WeHo is going crazy. I expected more celebrity action, to tell you the truth. Where’s Madge? That git sucked everything out of the community and gave nothing back.

Click to watch Whoopie Goldberg, Judy Gold and Kate Clinton after the jump.

Zain disrespects women

25

The new Zain commercials for their mobile back-up are horrible and bigoted. This misogyny has got to stop. So much so, that I am considering a boycott. In this series we see an elderly women portrayed as a tool, her ailments (a result of old age) seen as a reason for replacement and discrimination.

The woman in the videos is objectified and made to be the equivalent of a mobile phone. Zain is using sexism for comedy.

Zain’s prejudiced marketing team apparently did not do a demographic study or deem these commercials too discriminatory to be aired.

Shame on Zain. Call 107 and ask to leave a recorded complaint.
