Rose McGowan Bisexual?

Rose McGowan, raised by drag queens and a known advocate for the gay community, is not at all bisexual.

In her recent interview with the Advocate, McGowan tells about her rocky childhood and how she found love and care with the drag queens.

"At 13, when I was a runaway, I was taken in by the most amazing drag queens in Portland, Oregon. We didn’t always know where our next meal was coming from, but there was so much camaraderie and love. Not to mention, those girls could paint a face, and I learned how because of them." the Conan the Barbarian star says.

McGowan further details fun times that she had with her guardians and the way in which they impact her to this day.

"I could finagle my way into lots of different places," she says about whether she could get into night clubs despite her young age. "Whether it was how I danced or the way I looked, I was always quite celebrated in the gay clubs. To this day, I only go to gay clubs. I’m perfectly at home there. I also like watching hot boys and hot girls who can dance."

That being said, as hard as she tries, she doesn't find herself attracted to women. Off-screen, at least.

"I disappoint myself. I’ve never even kissed a girl. Isn’t that funny? The girls I think are cute look like guys, but then I think, But if they open their shirt, they’ll have breasts," she muses. "I’d be stoked to do a lesbian love scene. When asked if I’ve kissed a girl, I could finally say, ‘Why, yes, I have. And I got paid.’"

Korea's "Big Thing" is now on GMA-7

The Koreanovela that received the most trophies in the 2010 SBS Drama Awards is now in the Philippines.

“Big Thing” stars Ko Hyun Jung, who portrayed Lady Mishil in Queen Seon Deok. This time, however, she is no longer the villain but is now the main protagonist of the story.

Kwon Sang Woo, who is popularly known as Cholo in Stairway to Heaven, also makes a comeback and plays as a prosecutor named Edward Ha.

The story of “Big Thing” tells of Maureen’s (Ko Hyun Jung) rise to power as the first female president of South Korea. She started as a TV announcer who protested against the government because of her husband’s death in the hands of terrorists.

Two men aid her to succeed in politics: Edward, her friend who secretly loves her; and Victor Kang (Cha In Pyo), the congressman who urged her to run for president for his own ambitions.

Can Maureen survive the difficult and sometimes dirty world of politics? Whom should she trust? Is there a room for love in her life — both as a single mom and as a head of state?

Big Thing promises a highly interesting and relatable plot to the Filipino people. After having two female presidents, Filipinos will definitely want to know the ins and outs of politics from a strong woman’s point of view.

"Big Thing" airs Monday to Friday on GMA-7 Telebabad.

McCain Hobbits: Republicans Seek an Apology for Hobbits Comment

McCain hobbits comments to a tea party-backed Republicans on Wednesday earns frustrations and negative criticisms from public.

Sen. John McCain's harsh words began when he reacts to a Wall Street Journal editorial about the US Tea Party element who are demanding a vote on a balanced budget amendment before they will vote to raise the debt limit.

"The Republican House that failed to raise the debt ceiling would somehow escape all blame. Then Democrats would have no choice but to pass a balanced-budget amendment and reform entitlements, and the tea-party Hobbits could return to Middle Earth having defeated Mordor." the Arizona Republican Senator said.

When confronted and asked for an apology by his constituents during last Monday's town hall meeting, McCain said, "I am sorry if I was misunderstood. But I am not sorry for what I said. Why should I if it was a fact?"

Albie Casiño Receives Rave Reviews in '100 Days to Heaven'

Not only has “100 Days to Heaven” earned the nods of TV viewers and critics, it has also been made the teaching topic of a church sermon.

According to respected critic and columnist Nestor Torre, he heard a sermon himself wherein the priest urged churchgoers to learn from the story of the mean, icy, and cunning owner of a toy empire, Anna Manalastas.

In his sermon, the priest said people can draw inspiration from Anna, who after being killed in a car explosion, was given a second chance at earning a ticket to heaven by doing good to those she have wronged. He said Anna’s story shows the importance of “making amends, asking for forgiveness, attaining closure and deserving a second chance.”

In his review of “100 Days to Heaven,” Torre called it “as this season’s most inspiring TV series.”

And as Anna’s mission in the program continues, the viewers can expect more inspiring stories and moving scenes with the entry of veteran actor Christopher de Leon and controversial actor Albie Casiño, who will play father and son in the show.

Meanwhile, “100 Days to Heaven” also remains as the most-watched TV program across the country with a 32.9% national TV rating on Kantar Media last August 5 as opposed to the 21.5% TV rating of GMA’s “Amaya.”

Miss Earth 2008 Karla Henry Stabbed in Her Condo

Miss Earth 2008 Karla Paula Henry was stabbed inside her California Garden Square Condominium in Mandaluyong City yesterday, August 11.

"She parked her car then was about to go up the staircase when she was stabbed. The guy was drunk and used a Red horse bottle," Igpit tweeted.

Sneak Peek: “Friends With Benefits”

Columbia Pictures gathers Justin Timberlake, Mila Kunis, Bryan Greenberg and Woody Harrelson in the new off-beat romantic comedy “Friends with Benefits.”

In the film, Dylan (Timberlake) and Jamie (Kunis) certainly aren't in a settling-down frame of mind. When New York-based executive recruiter Jamie trains her considerable headhunting skills on luring hotshot LA-based art director Dylan to take a dream job in the Big Apple, they quickly realize what kindred spirits they are. They've each been through so many failed relationships that they're both ready to give up on love and focus on having fun.

So when Dylan relocates to New York and the pair start hanging out regularly, they share plenty of laughs over a twin belief that love is a myth propagated by Hollywood movies. That's when these two begin a deliciously sexy, decidedly grown-up experiment.

Could these two fast friends – who are successful, unattached, and scornful of commitment - explore new terrain?

If they add casual "no emotions" sex to their friendship, can they avoid all the pitfalls that come with thinking about someone else as more than just a pal?

As two people weaned on the disappointing promises of romantic comedies, Dylan and Jamie shouldn’t be entirely surprised when their bold move becomes a bawdy, sexy ride into uncharted territory, exposing much more of themselves than they ever thought they'd get to see.

“Friends with Benefits” is directed and produced by Will Gluck (“Easy A”). The screenplay is by Keith Merryman & David A. Newman, along with Gluck. Story is by Harley Peyton and Keith Merryman & David A. Newman.

Opening soon across the Philippines, “Friends with Benefits” is distributed by Columbia Pictures, local office of Sony Pictures Releasing International.

Video - Deep Fried Butter on a Stick Hits Iowa State Fair – Are you Serious?

Deep Fried Butter on a Stick

You’re kidding right? A fried butter log?

We all know that the Iowa State Fair is notorious for creating some of the worst possible foods known to mankind.

It’s almost like they are just tempting you to kill yourself.

But this year the creative purveyors of food delicacies have gone too far.

For just a few bucks, you can now buy a deep fried stick of butter mixed with a fat laden batter and deep fried.

All you have to do is take a stick of butter, cover it in cinnamon and honey and dip it in a hot grease fryer.

Mmmmm.

No – we’re not kidding.

Watch How to Make Deep Fried Butter Stick - Iowa State Fair

Now, we suspect if you have to ask how many calories are in a creation like this then “health” is not a word in your vocabulary.

Some experts say it is probably close to 2,500 calories and 300% of your daily recommended amount of fat.

Needless to say you will get an entire week of fat, cholesterol and other bad things if you chow down on one of these things.

Why not wash it down with a couple of beers?

Oh yea, don’t forget the Rolaids.

The Iowa State Fair runs through August 21st so hurry!

If you get there on opening night you can participate in one of the Fair’s oldest traditions – butter sculpting.

Each team receives one 55 pound block of butter and has 30 minutes to sculpt it into whatever they want. The winning sculptures will be displayed alongside the world famous Butter Cow in the Agriculture Building.

The losers? Well, they get their sculpture deep fried on a stick.

What do you think? Would YOU try one?

Video - iCarly’s Miranda Cosgrove Breaks Ankle in Tour Bus Accident - Mother also Injured

18-year-old actress and singer Miranda Cosgrove broke her ankle in a tour bus accident this morning.

According to reports, the tour bus she was riding in crashed into an overturned truck on Interstate 70 near Vandalia Illinois.

Cosgrove was traveling to her next concert venue in Kansas when the accident occurred injuring several people. The bus driver was flown to the hospital and is reported in critical condition.

Cosgrove broke her ankle and was taken to the hospital for treatment and observation and has cancelled her shows in Wichita Kansas and Denver Colorado.

Her rep released a statement saying,

"Miranda Cosgrove's tour bus was involved in an accident early this morning in Illinois on I-70, just outside of Vandalia. There were five passengers on the bus, and Miranda suffered a broken ankle. At this time, we are told everyone will be fine. Because of this, her tour is postponed until further notice. Miranda thanks everyone for their understanding and support."

Miranda's mother was also injured in the accident but is expected to recover. One reporter on the scene said the accident was much worse then she thought saying,

"Miranda's mom was on the bus with her and got really beaten up by the crash. She's expected to fully recover, but it's scary because the driver was hurt, too, and he's in really bad shape because the injury happened close to his heart. This was a life-threatening crash. A piece from the tractor-trailer went straight through the windshield and the driver's arm was sliced all the way through."

A local news channel took the following footage showing the tour bus badly damaged and being towed away.

In addition to her role as Carly Shaw on “iCarly”, the actress has appeared in “The Naked Brothers Band”, “The Wild Stallion”, “Drake & Josh”, “Unfabulous”, and other Nickelodeon shows.

She is currently on the road touring as part of her “Dancing Crazy Summer Tour” and until yesterday was performing with teen sensation Greyson Chance.

Video - Justin Bieber Rocks Pink Shoes as Alter Ego Derek Bieber – Denies He is Dead or a Brat

Leave it to Justin Bieber to start a controversy no matter where he goes.

While leaving a restaurant yesterday in Hollywood with his manager Scooter Braun, Bieber was confronted by a photographer from TMZ who clearly did not have his facts straight.

Bieber was asked about an incident on an American Airlines flight where the pop singer was rude and refused to sign an autograph for one of the pilots.

Bieber denied the story and then was asked what it was like to be famous and have all these fake stories and rumors circulating about him.

Bieber responded,

"I'm famous? I'm a celebrity? I didn't even realize. My name's Derek. I don't even know what you're talking about. I'm just a look-alike. I don't know why you guys are following me around with cameras. I've never heard anybody ever call me a brat."

Justin then told the photog that he shouldn’t believe everything he hears and that there were also stories that he had died from multiple causes and they were on their way to his funeral.

Funny…

Watch Justin as Derek Bieber in Hollywood

Within an hour of the video being released “Derek Bieber” was a worldwide trending topic on twitter.

Ah, the power of social media!

But when you really are Justin Bieber, and worth an estimated $100 million, you can do anything you want and wear anything you want.

In fact, The Bieb’s is so confident in his masculinity these days he was rocking some ultra-bright pink shoes.

Nothing says masculine like pink shoes, two earrings, and making a lady carry your shopping bags.

We also noticed in the video that nobody really seemed to care that Scooter Braun was there, and he acted like he didn’t want anything to do with any of the discussion.

Smooth move Scooter – and nice beard.

For his part, Bieber is back in the studio working on his new album “Believe”.

Can’t wait.

Summer Colors...having a blast

Pink and Yellow are two of my favorite colors this season whether it be in your home, the art you display, the flowers you cut, the color scheme for a party, the shoes on your feet or a fun bright accessory. What color would you choose....

Are you Pretty in Pink?
