Of course Pat Boone is an insane monster these days, but wow, did he ever have a killer keister. Life has just released shots of him fully naked and showering. That they were never published until now is not hard to believe, that Boone will appreciate this is harder.

Also, Steve McQueen's bare butt. Both seen here.

Matt Bomer has joined the starry cast of Dustin Lance Black's 8, which will get a Broadway reading soon. More at Musto.

Michael Musto is a legend, but I think his posting this clip of Barry Bostwick, Lisa Hartman, Barbi Benton, Gwen Verdon, Paula Kelly, Judy Landers, Sandahl Bergman and others dancing to "Jump for My Love" might be the pinnacle of his career...

Popstar Sir Ari Gold was holding hands with a guy on the Short Line bus here in NYC when the driver told them they'd have to move to the back. Seems they were making him uncomfortable. Poor baby! When they refused, the driver called for a state trooper, who informed him they were doing nothing illegal and he had to keep driving. Apparently, other passengers were supportive.

It's comical that the driver felt he had a point. [Sidebar: Awww, Ari is taken, guys!]

A prominent TV personality is about to come out of the closet with Howard Bragman's help. The "media blitz" is supposedly beginning next week.

Guesses?

UPDATE: A Michael Musto reader suggests Don Lemon, the CNN anchor who not long ago came out as a victim of child sexual abuse. He would be a good candidate as someone who apparently believes public figures can be up front about personal issues, and also as someone who is publishing a book in June.

Called—ding! ding! ding!—Transparent.

He'd sure be a welcome member to the team.

McGillis plays a put-upon nun with sympathy for vampiric zombies in Stake Land

I recently saw (and actually enjoyed) the arty, apocalyptic horror flick Stake Land, starring adorable Connor Paolo of Gossip Girl fame and Kelly McGillis, noted for her stellar performances in films like Witness and The Accused and, of course, for being Tom Cruise's arm candy in Top Gun. More recently, McGillis came out as a lesbian after years of rumors about her sexuality.

Michael Musto has a terrific and fairly candid Q&A with McGillis in which she talks about her career and her personal life and says of her life's narrative:

"If people only knew. One of these days, I'm gonna be honest about my life, but until a lot of people are dead, I can't. It's bad karma. I can laugh at myself, but it's not fair for me to laugh at other people."

OMG, this just makes me wish whoever has to would die already so we can get the real story. McGillis strikes me as someone with so much to say, as well as someone who might actually say it and not care about who she pisses off given half a chance.

Arthur Laurents has put an end to the dream of a movie version of Gypsy starring Barbra Streisand and directed by Tom Hooper.

Well, he's no stranger to having people wish he were dead.

(I'm not one of them, but I do question his judgment and that of Stephen Sondheim if it's true they decided great shows shouldn't be made into movies. Can't they just be made into great movies?)

Dior has "started procedures to dismiss" John Galliano in the wake of that video proving he has, in fact, made the type of anti-Semitic remarks of which he'd been accused. The out-of-his-mind fashion flake had denied the initial accusation and sued his accusers before the video emerged.

Completely disgusting that any gay man can harbor anywhere in his being the sentiment, "I love Hitler," drunk as a skunk or not.

Face of Dior Natalie Portman is "shocked and disgusted" and won't be associated in any way with Galliano

It's more proof that those who work in an industry devoted to beauty are not always the furthest thing from ugly inside. (Or out, in his case...yuck.) Is celebrity anti-Semitism de rigueur these days or what?

Michael Musto chimes in with his decidedly mixed review of 2010 (wait for it on Netflix if you can), which talks about President GaGa and everyone else that made the year—truthfully—stranger than fiction.

In the process, he offers up a few new drag personae to his already memorable canon (who can forget his bare-naked Madonna or his nakedly needy Lindsay Lohan?), including GaGa, Snooki and Johnny Depp...and yes, dressing up as the latter does count as drag.

Jackie Hoffman sounded off hilariously (bitterly, but hilariously) about her day-and-night-job The Addams Family at her recent one-woman show Jackie Five-OH! She observed of the Broadway version of that cheesy '60s classic that it's...

"...the most reviled, hated, loathed, shat-upon, criticized, financially successful group of people since the Jews."

She also poked (with a sharp stick) fun at the fact that her character, Grandma, doesn't even have a song—which even zerosyllabic Lurch has. Her comedic bitchings and moanings—more of them found here—are right up my alley. Gotta catch her show! (No, not that one, the good one.)
