Michael Lucas Gets Ready To Do Ugly Betty

Michael Lucas, the world’s most mainstreamed gay adult star, continues to charter his course for celebrity stardom with an upcoming walk-on role in ABC’s multi-award winning comedy, UGLY BETTY. The show, starring Emmy Award winning actress America Ferrera in the title role, is filmed on location in New York City, which is also the home of Lucas’ production company, Lucas Entertainment.  Lucas’ appearance is the first time a porn star will be included in primetime fictional programming, and is a watershed moment for both mainstream and adult film industries.

Lucas won the role as part of a heated charity auction during the 2009 Stonewall Community Foundation Dinner held on June 17, 2009 at the United Nations Delegates’ Dining Room in New York City. When the bidding war was completed, Lucas and other attendees of the event raised $18,000.00 for the foundation.

While the exact details of the character that Lucas will portray have yet to be outlined, he is very excited about this project. On his blog (www.lucasblog.com) Lucas wrote, “It felt great to give all that porn money to Stonewall. And it also felt great to put out a challenge to mainstream TV. How will ABC deal with a porn star on one of its prime time programs? I am curious to see how this will play out. Now, I am not suggesting that my little walk-on will change the world. But I hope it will be one step taking us out of the privacy of people’s bedrooms and onto a larger stage. And I hope the American public will enjoy seeing a porn star as a real person, not just as a hot body.”

Lucas expects to finalize his appearance with UGLY BETTY producers in the coming days.

No “Kiss” for Lambert from Gene Simmons

From AfterElton:

In what soup-to-nuts is quite possibly the most annoying interview I have ever seen, KISS co-founder and granny-hair enthusiast Gene Simmons appeared on various Fox News affiliates today and managed to compliment Adam Lambert (with whom KISS performed on the American Idol finale) briefly before saying that the young singer should “keep his mouth shut about his sexual preference”, because “we, America” don’t want to hear about “what it is you have to do indoors.”

He used the same routine on various outlets (with a bestiality chaser in each one), but here’s one version of it:

“Adam should have won. On the other hand he should have kept his mouth shut about his sexual preferences. I don’t really care what he wants to do and neither does America. But this kid’s got talent, Adam Lambert can go on. As long as he’s quiet about whatever else he prefers to do indoors. I personally don’t care, I mean if you love farm animals, that’s fine, but I don’t wanna read a magazine about that.”

Gene Simmons?  Kiss?   For real?  I thought these guys were dead by now.  What I want to know, is there really anybody out there that cares about anything that Gene Simmons says?   Seriously!

Lambert: “I Don’t Think It Should Be a Surprise”

From NY Daily News:

For months, Adam Lambert has kept fans questioning his sexuality.

But that all ends in the next issue of Rolling Stone, where the “American Idol” runner-up opens up and finally reveals he’s gay.

“I don’t think it should be a surprise for anyone to hear that I’m gay,” Lambert says.

“I’m proud of my sexuality,” he adds. “I embrace it. It’s just another part of me.”

Gracing the magazine’s cover, Lambert, 27, also discusses his childhood and early acknowledgement that he “wasn’t like every other boy.”

American Idol runner-up Adam Lambert was spotted with a male companion at West Hollywood hot spot Guys and Dolls Monday night, further raising the rumors that the singer may indeed be gay.

Witnesses say the two, who arrived with several others, including Sophia Bush, were very affectionate toward each other at Guys and Dolls.
