Heather Morris plays Brittany–the pea-brained cheerleader–on Glee, and she’s both funnier and smarter than her character.

More Glee (or not)?
This week’s episode of Glee clutches tight to a narrative thread while the spool unravels around (and around) it.

April can be dreary. Stick Shift’s prescription? Gay it up with a once-weekly Mercedes injection.

Gay Uncle Plays Parenting Ref
The Gay Uncle is forced to throw his two pink cents into the ring once again, and play parenting expert in The Chicago Tribune. This time, the topic is How To Handle a Contentious Four Year-Old, or what to do when your kid wants to bitch and argue about, well, EVERYTHING. If he has to say so himself, Gunc thinks this is some of his best advice, ever. And it’s short as hell, so there’s no excuse not to take twenty seconds and click over to read it. It could save you a lifetime of squabbling.
Admongo Goes Live!
The Gay Uncle has been intimately involved in researching and consulting on what he thinks is a very important educational initiative during the past year and a half. Sponsored and funded entirely by the Federal Trade Commission (that’s right, Gunc goes Fed) this project uses an online game, a free downloadable curriculum, and other research materials to help tweens learn how to be more critical readers of consumer messages. In other words it’s about teaching Advertising Literacy: what ads are about, who is behind them, and what they want kids to do or think. Anyway, the program launched officially today to some awesome media coverage. These links are below. Or, better yet, simply head on over to the site and have your kid try it out (or try it yourself): admongo.gov Safe, fun, and educational. What could be better?

The Gay Guide to Glee: Episode 16, “Home”
Thank you Apollo, or Dionysus, or whichever one of those gods is in charge of Faggy Fun. Glee returned to form last night, with an episode that was both hilarious and heartfelt. And I returned to my keyboard immediately after to write up a new Glee-cap for Vanity Fair.
Glee’s Chris Colfer Wants To Show You His Butt
I had a chance to interview the charming and hilarious Chris Colfer, who plays gay teen Kurt on Glee, the other day and he had plenty to say on the subjects of retail therapy, playing (and being) an out gay young person, and his masterful plans for pulling pranks on the cast and members of the audience during the live Glee tour this spring.
Archie Goes Gay!
The folks over at Archie Comics, in an effort to stay au courrant, are introducing an openly gay teenager into the mix at Riverdale High this fall. His name is Kevin Keller, and he’s H-O-T (for a two dimensional dude, that is.) But his sudden appearance begs a few questions. I attempt to answer them over at Vanity Fair.

Most Reviled Children’s Book
Lauren Myracle’s best-selling “ttyl” topped this year’s list of books parents most want banned (or banished) from the shelves of their local libraries. The Gay Uncle gives her a ring, and talks about intellectual freedom, teens, and controversy.
