Seaver Fever

Actually, I think Alan Thicke is hotter than all but two of these dads. (View them all HERE.) Can you guess who I'd rather have a private session with over Dr. Seaver?

Even more recently he's looked pretty damn do-able.

NLGJA's Headlines and Headliners 2011

Ann Curry, Sam Champion, Bill Ritter, Sade Baderinwa and Thomas Roberts

Attended the National Lesbian and Gay Journalists Association's (NLGJA) 16th annual New York benefit on Thursday, which is always my favorite event of the year. (I first attended in 1999 when I was also invited to the after-dinner, where I met Tina Brown, Harry Evans, Ed Koch and Michael Huffington -- with his boy-toy du jour -- then lucked out and was seated next to Jane Pauley. I've also blogged about the 2007, 2008, 2009 and 2010 events.) This year's gala was hosted by MSNBC's Thomas Roberts and, like last year, was held at the Mitchell Gold + Bob Williams store in SoHo. (Those two do so much for LGBT causes -- and make beautiful leather sofas, like mine!) The party is great because not only are two young journalists awarded scholarships, you also get to catch up on all the latest industry -- and personal -- gossip with all your fellow LGBT colleagues, as a bunch of bold-faced names wandering around amongst us! Here are some photo highlights:

With Kevin Hauswirth and Sade Baderinwa, whom I cross-examined about Charles Perez's memoir (She was a doll -- no wonder even HE liked her -- and didn't have a mean word to say about anyone)

Christine Quinn, Mitchell Gold and Thomas Roberts

Jane Velez-Mitchell and friends

Javi Morgado and Jesse Rodriguez

With Dan Mathews of PETA, whom I mistook for Matthew Modine (It was only when I got home and saw his business card did it make sense why he seemed to have NO IDEA what I was talking about -- oops!)

If Erin Moriarty DIDN'T want to hear me gush all night about how much I LOVE "48 Hours," then she shouldn't have set foot in the joint!

Not all journalists only have a face for radio ...

Top Chef: Mark Sanchez

Mark Sanchez showed off his culinary skills in the kitchen at N9NE Steakhouse at Palms Casino Resort in Las Vegas with George Maloof (owner) and Barry S. Dakake (chef). With his love of fashion, Broadway shows and cooking, the Jets quarterback certainly has a playbook full of surprises. (Via Twitter)

Apparently even celebrities have a hard time getting through airport security without feeling violated.
