And you couldn’t have that special day the way your friends do – you know, wear the ring on your finger and have it mean the same thing as everybody else. Just put yourself in that person’s shoes. It makes me feel sick to my stomach …. When I shared a picture of my tattoo on my Twitter page and said, ‘ALL LOVE is equal,’ a lot of people mocked me – they said, ‘What happened to you? You used to be a Christian girl!’ And I said, ‘Well, if you were a true Christian, you would have your facts straight. Christianity is about love.’ The debate resulted in a lot of threats and hate mail to people who agreed and disagreed with me. At one point I had to say, ‘Dude, everyone lay off.’ Can’t people have friendly debates about sensitive topics without it turning into unnecessary threats?” - Pop star Miley Cyrus on her marriage equality tattoo - - - - - - - - - - -

Chris Colfer from Glee, and the movie, The Social Network, win big at Golden Globes

I read it was a pretty interesting Golden Globes Awards show last night.  Unfortunately, I didn't get the chance to view all these actors and actresses parading around the stage last night; I had other matters to attend to.  In either case, I was glad to hear The Social Network won the Best Picture Drama, I thought it was a really great movie, but I also thought The Black Swan was amazing as well.  Natalie Portman did win for Best Actress in the respective category.  But the greatest news of the night, two openly gay actors from the show, Glee, won best supporting actress and best supporting actor for their portrayal of Kurt and Sue Sylvester in series or mini-series made for television.
