 I was really hoping Glenn Close (R) would win Best Actress for Albert Nobbs though I do love Meryl Streep (L) as Margaret Thatcher. Both portrayals seem pretty gay. This week’s podcast dispels some rumors, discusses the Hollywood Bowl drama and digs on the Oscars. First we address a rumor about Just Out from last week before moving on to a couple “sports” related updates. Can queer […]   Leslie and the Lys play at Blow Pony's 5 year anniversary Saturday at Rotture. Friday Slutty Hearts cassette release party – I’m not totally convinced of the hipster merits of producing an album on cassette and the only place to play them for me, and most people, is that one roommate’s car that still has a tape deck. But then they get an iPod converter and the party’s over. I recommend snapping a little USB drive in there with digi versions of the songs instead (and, update, it does actually come with a digital download, so there Alley!). But then, I may just not be hip enough. But the Slutty Hearts are. And you can’t complain about the format when you get a free copy with show entrance. And their brand of rock will bring you back to pure PDX 90s style with all those fond memories and sweaty show spots. And that’s a good thing. Continue reading »   LIPDX's Alex Nguyen, Rachael Swedenborg and Ashley Shumaker This week the podcast has 2 parts. In part 1 we talk to the ladies behind the newly launched LIPDX (Lesbians In Portland) Tumblr blog and in part 2 we talk to Anna Crandall, Director of new play Wax Wing, opening tonight as part of the Fertile Ground Festival. And don’t forget you can subscribe in iTunes! Don’t miss an episode! Get it downloaded automatically. Continue reading »   K.D. Lang Living in Portland? Is it True?It is no secret that Portland is known for having some celeb guests. Rumor has it that K.D Lang has recently called PDX her home. That’s right, K.D. may just be living right around the corner from you! According to an inside source of Byron Beck, a popular gossip blog, Ms. Lang is now an Oregonian. What better place for a vegan, lesbian musician to live? So keep an eye out fellow homos, because you know if she is here, you are bound to see her popping in places like The Bye and Bye and Portobello. To the younger generation, she might just blend into the crowd of typical Pacific North West lesbians. She ain’t no hipster! Continue reading »  This week 2 Girls, 1 Podcast records from the bar which makes us even more ridiculous in our commentary, like bringing up the lack of Grindr for women (“um, lesbians invented grinding”) and the already escalating gay gang war. […]  These are the parts of qPDX.com that piqued the most interest and caused the most kerfuffle. […]  A future where celebrities won’t make headlines just for acknowledging their sexuality may not be far off, but for now we still love to gossip, surmise, and celebrate when a famous person finally comes out of the closet. […] The reality television show “Keeping up with the Kardashians” has made their stamp on Portland. How, you ask? Well, Kim Kardashian is currently going through a messy divorce and rumor has it that she will not be putting up a Christmas tree this year. She has had a waiting order from a local Oregon tree farm for months. Where did this very star-studded tree end up? In the hands […]   Zachary Quinto knows that hipster glasses work for gays and straights alike. National Coming Out Day may be over but it’s never too late to come out of the closet. So kudos to Zachary Quinto who my fellow nerds probably know either as Spock from the recent Star Trek movie or bad guy Silar from TV’s Heroes. Quinto has been one of those many celebrities that don’t seem to be particularly closeted, but never acknowledge their homosexuality publicly, nor confirm when a direct question is asked. But Quinto decided it was important to come out announced his new openness about being gay on his own blog, saying, Continue reading » |
