Le Grand Prince: Here's incredibly sexy French actor Gaspard Ulliel on the cover of the French fashion magazine 100% MIXTE Homme. (OhLaLaMag)

Roasted: John McCain should give up evil partisan politics and become a comedian. He killed last night at the Al Smith dinner at the Waldorf-Astoria. It was really fun to see even if it did little to undo the damage he's done to his reputation in the past five months. Barack Obama was no slouch either, although he was more adorable in the way he laughed at his own jokes, like he was even surprised by what had just come out of his mouth. (McCain's uncomfortable reaction shots were priceless!) (Politico)

Singing a New Tune: Female elementary school music teacher comes back from summer break as a man, parents freak. (The real story here, though, is that the teacher still uses Friendster.) (Advocate)

The $15 Million Woman: Sarah Palin's office tells news organizations seeking her e-mails that they will have to pay and won't be able to see them until after the election. The office of the Republican vice-presidential nominee has quoted prices as high as $15 million for copies of state e-mails requested by news organizations and citizens. (MSNBC)

Andy Would Be Proud: Be on the lookout for the new book "Where’s My Fifteen Minutes?," the new book by PR vet Howard Bragman due in early '09. Doug Savant's closet heterosexuality is just one of juicy topics covered. "During my first year on Melrose Place (1992), there was a great deal of pressure from Fox TV for me to out myself as a straight man," Savant said. "The producers kept telling me I had to say publicly that I was a breeder. They said too many people assumed I was gay. I know the truth of my life, so I didn't have to play the network game. For three years, I was the spokesperson for the AIDS rides in California. I was flattered that people assumed I was gay. To me, that was an affirmation that I was doing my job." (Daily Musto)

Sole Survivor: What a surprise, the U.S. Supreme Court doesn't want to deal with Richard Hatch either. (AP)

Move Over, Mrs. Paul: Anyone wanna try David Beckham's fish sticks? (Towleroad)

Wrinkle in Time: A big story on men using botox? Tells the gays something they don't already know. (NYT)

Here We Go: A midlevel New York state appeals court is considering a challenge to the policy granting benefits to the same-sex married partners of state workers. (365Gay)

Racism in America: When you still see disgusting shit like this: "(Obama's) neither-nor,” said Ricky Thompson, a pipe fitter who works at a factory north of Mobile, while standing in the parking lot of a Wal-Mart store just north of here. “He’s other. It’s in the Bible. Come as one. Don’t create other breeds" and "He’s going to tear up the rose bushes and plant a watermelon patch," said James Halsey, chuckling, while standing in the Wal-Mart parking lot with fellow workers in the environmental cleanup business. "I just don’t think we’ll ever have a black president" -- does stuff like this surprise you?
