Those Five Canadian Guys Got Naked With That One Girl, And It Was Boring

Speaking of Logo — and we're really embarrassed to be doing two posts about Logo in one week — that 'Naked Episode' of the Canadian show '1 Girl 5 Gays' was on last night. On it we got to watch the gang sit around in a studio, bareassed, talking about each other's shrinkage, etc. Also, the unfortunate femmy one was really congested (allergies?), and unfortunately chose to wear some feather wings to dress up for the occasion. And everyone but the cute one did some manscaping, so, take that as you will. On the Atlantic site today, Richard Lawson goes off about this exhibitionist, slutty generation and why he wanted to watch the show. Ah well. We all are suckers for a naked gimmick, right? Moving on...

Logo TV Is Going to Get a Lot Less Gay

Well, what do you know. The programming geniuses at Logo TV have come to the conclusion that their endless loop of Queer as Folk reruns isn't cutting the mustard, and they're going to start airing less gay-specific, more "mainstream" programming. The decision, they say, is based on a survey that found that only 30 percent of LGBT people prefer to associate solely with other LGBT folk in a gay ghetto environment these days, and that gay people increasngly lead "more fully integrated lives," as reflected by popular shows like Modern Family. So, even though they're going to continue airing Rupaul's Drag Race, they're going to start to produce and air stuff like Laguna Beach and Storage Hunters, or stuff produced by the producers of those shows, with a non-gay focus. So maybe finally they'll give up on those stupid NewNowNext Awards? [San Diego LGBT Weekly]

Logo Hires Porn Star Colby Keller to Give Sex Advice

Occasionally Logo does something right (we still kind of miss Jeffery and Cole's Casserole, weird as it was), and this would be one of those times. Enter porn star Colby Keller (star of the upcoming Cowboys), whom they don't exactly identify as a porn star, but who is now doling out sex advice for the channel. His first topic: What creative things can two tops do together? It's a decent list, however when you get to "Try Second Life," you're pretty much better off giving up and going home. [via The Sword]

Hot Model/Actor Claims Gay to Get Out of Jury Duty

Attractive, often shirtless model/actor/singer/dancer Jonathan D. Lovitz, who's going to be on some upcoming Logo show called The Setup Squad, recently got out of jury duty by giving a little speech about being gay. We're not sure that this would go over with most hard-nosed judges, but according to Musto Lovitz got all gay-political when asked if he could be impartial and said, "Since I can't get married or adopt a child in the state of New York, I can't possibly be an impartial judge of a citizen when I am considered a second class citizen in the eyes of the justice system." Then he took off his shirt and used his abs as proof of his gay claims.

Logo Releases NewNowNext Nominees. Yawn.

True Blood's Joe Manganiello is nominated in the 'Cause Your Hot category.The list of nominees for Logo's NewNowNext Awards -- their annual small-scale foray into MTV VMA-like hip-awards-ceremony land -- are out, and they're as boring as ever. They have categories like "'Cause You're Hot" and "Brink of Fame Actor" where we're assuming they're just trying their luck at getting Andrew Garfield or Joe Manganiello to show up to something so they can cop a feel. And then there's categories like "Most Addictive Reality Star" and "Next Must-See Movie" where we're like, wow guys, this really is like an awards show two twelve-year-old girls would have in their basement. Anyway, we still can't decide whether to be hurt or relieved not to be included (yet again) among the nominees for the #zOMG Internet Award. The show happens in New York sometime next month, and then airs on Logo on April 11.

Internet- and Logo-Famous Gay Asks For Help Fixing Broken Tooth

One of our most favorite pretend internet lovers, Jeffery Self, star of Logo's Jeffery & Cole Casserole, fell and broke his tooth over the weekend -- well, we're inserting the "fell" part, because most of our friends who have done something similar did so after drinking, and falling. We don't want to poke fun. It's a terrible thing, really, and we'd be mortified if it were us. But Jeffery, feeling desperate (and poor), has turned to his internet lovers for help in covering his dental bill. Because this is what we do in the age of Twitter and Tumblr when we need some quick cash and sympathy: we ask the universe for help, via a vlog. So please, if you want to help Jeffery not look so trashy and hillbilly, donate a dollar or two. He's already less than $1000 away from his goal. Together, we can spare him and ourselves further humiliation.

HaHa: Logo's 'A-List' Queens Paid a Whopping $500 an Episode

Keep pursing those lips, Ryan.Oh this is rich. The cast of Logo's A-List were paid the king's ransom of $500 an episode to appear on the show, and had to sign a five-year contract to keep having their miserable lives chronicled, according to a person who was asked to be on the show but refused. So, let's make this clear: Those bitches' desire to be on a reality TV show, coupled with their deeply misguided sense of self-importance, led them to sign five fucking years of their lives away and be utterly humiliated week after week, all with the hope that the accompanying "fame" would lead to endorsement deals and book contracts and neverending gaylebrity, rather than becoming objects of derision to the most judgmental demographic segment on the planet?

Brian Safi in re: 'The A-List': "Girl, Who Deez Homos?"

We said the trailer made us want to hate-crime ourselves, but if only because we love hearing Rodiney keep saying, "he hurt me" in that impossibly thick accent every time Reichen drunkenly hits on another guy, we're guiltily sort of enjoying The A-List. They're horrible, horrible people, all of them, with the exception maybe of Reichen who is just sort of dim and awkardly more human than we'd imagined. And as Brian Safi from Current TV's 'That's So Gay' accurately sums it up, "Doesn't it feel great to sleep your way to the top of a second-tier cable show?" Anyway, we love you Brian. Watch his take below.

Things That Make Us Want to Hate-Crime Ourselves: Logo's 'A-List'

We were avoiding talking about this, because for at least a day after watching this we could still taste the vomit in the back of our throats and were making some calls to see if we could get some of our civil rights taken away. Seriously, Logo's A-List, while perhaps giving everyone a reason to groan and stare at a train wreck like they do with the Real Housewives, has the potential to set us all back twenty years the way AIDS did. Seriously, get us a gun.
