Queen Latifah still ain’t confirming she’s a homo, Adam Lambert fends off boys & girls in new interview, Kathy Griffin lays the smackdown on Elisabeth Hasselbeck on The View and smooches Mariska Hargitay, watch We Have to Stop Now’s free episode right here, and the new Riot Grrrls.

Yes, this is a coming-of-age lesbian teen romcom by the director of Saving Face, and, yes, I did cry tears of joy in the first minute of the trailer.

Ashleigh Sumner is the adorable, every-girl star of the sexy lesbian romantic comedy, And Then Came Lola. Jess chats with her about her first on-camera sex scenes, seeing herself on the big screen, LA vs. San Francisco, gays & superheroes, and her artwork.

For ten years we’ve watched fan favorite Dr. Teddy Altman on Grey’s Anatomy. Still, there’s so much we don’t know. For starters, she’s BISEXUAL! (Bring tissues, this is one for the Grey’s weeping history books.)

In other words, straight people are not okay.

Black femmes won Oscars weekend, starring: Janet Mock, Janelle Monáe, Angelica Ross, Billy Porter, and MJ Rodriguez! Also, links about why we still don’t believe survivors, moms starting a housing rights revolution, and more.

“There are few shows that I have loved with the ferocity that I loved Orange is the New Black, and there are exactly zero shows that have broken my heart the way this show did. So when it came to the final season, I was trying to prepare myself for anything.”

Focusing on the chosen family that’s been built at the Coterie allows the show to be serious, sincere, sexy and fun, all at once — and always results in some of Good Trouble’s best episodes.

Summer TV is here and you know what that means: Queen Sugar! Claws! grown-ish! Burden of Truth! And, weirdly, the end of The Bold Type’s third season.

The first IMDb user review for Daddy Issues is titled “Heterophobic movie.” I cannot argue. I also cannot complain. May we blessed with an entire career of heterophobic movies from this properly queer filmmaker.
