Creepy Former American Idol Contestant Brought Up On Child Sex Charges

Meet Colin Leahy. He was once an American Idol contestant! He was featured during season three's Parade of Misery, saying on the show that he was just like Clay Aiken because "I'm also a camp counselor." Well, salute your shorts and fast forward a few years and Counselor Colin has been arrested and charged with endangering the welfare of a child after he, um, sent sexually provocative text messages to a twelve year old boy and propositioned a ten year old lad for sexy time. And! He had been volunteering at a Brooklyn elementary school! Oh dear. It's just like that Scott Bairstow fiasco. [NYM]

The Sorcerer's Stones

Alohomora! Daniel "Harry Potter" Radcliffe's naked bits, on stage in Peter Shaffer's Equus ( a great play for youngsters), will be coming to you in September! Broadway previews begin on the 5th. There will only be twenty-two weeks of the ten minute nude scene, so there's probably some math to be done there about something or other. Oh and there's also something about this being one of the best plays of the 20th century blah blah. I'm sorry I can't really think right now. [People] (Please also give this a better headline.)

Bette Midler May Disappoint Thousands of Gays

Ohhh dear. Don't tell your "uncle" Barry, but Bette Midler's new Las Vegas show, "The Showgirl Must Go On," is apparently not so good. The musical extravaganza, that has the unenviable task of replacing Celine Dion's mind-bogglingly successful phantasmagoria at Caesar's, is opening tonight, and yet critics have been banned from reviewing it until February 29th. This is never a good sign. The Las Vegas Sun's Joe Brown managed to see an invited dress and has some terrible (if a bit vague) things to report. More »
