    I think the real estate broker thing is just a cover for Nick Denton. #therich

    $300 for a pool cabana!?

    Jon, baby! You should head to the Asser Levy Pool on 23rd and C!

    $300, a willingness to have your cavities searched by security and a strong immunity to e coli will get you a lifetime of relaxation by a pool! #therich

    In reply to What Do Adam Lambert and Details Have in Common?
    Bottom line, reason they should've used a male model, is because Adam Lambert looks like an awkward virgin who has no idea what to do with a woman. Which makes sense, but still. Not sexy. #adamlambert

    What I find most disturbing here is that, in fig. 2, the model is so not turned on that her legs seem to have fused mid-thigh. #adamlambert

    Because everyone knows corduroy suits are for The Poors. #adamlambert

    I think they were just trying to balance out all of those other photo shoots—you know, the dozens upon dozens of edgy editorials in which they made staunchly heterosexual leading men pose in flagrante with dudes. #adamlambert

    In reply to What Do Adam Lambert and Details Have in Common?
    I don't know. I think there is room for debate on whether the pics are just sexy or catering to the straight fan base or blurring lines or just for some cheap, easy publicity. And I think there is also room for debate on the tone chosen for the article, which was "as a gay man, how do you deal with all these crazy, horny ladies throwing their underwear and shit at you?" And to some extent "how is this possible?" Which I find the more insulting.

    But I think it's a bit much to pull that one quote (which was part of a larger quote about an especially aggressive female fan) from the rest and make it seem as if he's somehow stepping into the closet, or starting "freaky" talk. I mean, he mentions repeatedly that he is gay, mentions his bf, but also mentions that he thinks it's great if women can find him sexy, see him as a sex symbol, even though they -- and everyone else -- are well aware of his sexual orientation. #adamlambert

    It's entirely possible that I watch too much Real World...but don't some of the gay boys actually like tongue-slobbing the ladeeez just to hear them squeal and develop big comical inert crushes while they try to get the boy in bed in order to fake make-out, possibly dry hump, and then go in the confessional to say how much they "will totally turn Davis straight if it's the last thing I do!"

    This does happen, right? #adamlambert

    @DahlELama: True. But does this mean they won't all touch your boobies and tell you that something... your hair/clothes/nails/shoes/Martha Stewart serving bowls are just "simply dreadful?"

    This, I would actually like and find helpful. #adamlambert
