Good morning!
Spain's openly lesbian politician Ángeles Álvarez is encouraging closeted women to come out. She's like "Look, guys, I did it and I survived!"
I never thought I'd read these words; "She plays a glam lesbian plumber." Apparently that is true of Joanne Matthews in the new BBC sitcom The Wright Way. The actress told The Daily Star:
Susan moves in her lesbian girlfriend, which riles [her dad]. He is very Ocd about everything.
Her Gf, played by Jennifer Saunders’ daughter Beattie Edmondson, has a fake Jamaican accent "as her character wants to be a DJ." This show sounds terrible or amazing.
If NeNe Leakes were gay, I feel like she'd be out about it, considering she's on two of the gayest TV shows on air. But Real Housewives lesbian rumors just keep on happening.

Natasha Lyonne has been in our hearts since she cried and drooled saying "I'm a homosexual" in But I'm a Cheerleader, and she's making a return to screens of all sizes in several new projects. She spoke with Paper about her new film, G.B.F., which is about how fashionable it is to have a gay best friend. (The film also stars Sasha Pieterse!) Natasha told the mag of the film:
I play Ms. Hoegel, the head of the Gay-Straight Alliance. She was abandoned long ago by her gay best friend. My sense is that she couldn't be with him forever because he was gay, and not straight. Now with the hole that he's left, she has Mr. Anderson Coopurrr, her cat. I think her goal [in the film] is tokeep the kids on track with not being so narrow-minded or Salem Witch-hunty about their pursuits. »

Morning!
This Justin Bieber manipulation is presented without comment.
BuzzFeed has a piece called "How OKCupid Helped Me Explore My Bisexuality." The writer thought she wanted a threesome, but what she wanted was to have sex with a woman.
BuzzFeed also has a piece on why Megan Rapinoe would make a great Bff. All the reasons they list could easily be in an article on why she'd make a great Gf, too.
Out lesbian Analouisa Valencia is vying for the Miss South Carolina crown. I'd love to see a Miss America with a girlfriend!
If you're watching The Voice in the UK, you might be interested in knowing that contestant Leanne Jarvis was in a 2010 lesbian vampire film called Blood Army.
Also in UK reality shows, some girl-on-girl kissing in the trailer for The Valleys.

This year's Oscar nominees are pretty straight, especially compared to the last few years where we had a strong showing with The Kids Are Alright, Pariah and Albert Nobbs. Fear not — we've got a way to keep it gay when you watch the ceremony this Sunday, at least as far as the women go.
