It's A Gay Globe...
Gay Golden Globes 14/12/2005 12:00:00 AM
(BANG) - Hollywood's first gay cowboy movie 'Brokeback Mountain' is set to ride off with seven Golden Globes.
The controversial movie - which stars Heath Ledger and Jake Gyllenhaal - is being lined up for a succession of prizes including best picture.
George Clooney's 'Good Night, and Good Luck' and Woody Allen's 'Match Point' will also be battling it out for the best movie award - an indication of Oscar success.
Surprisingly, director Peter Jackson's much heralded 'King Kong' received just two nominations.
Meanwhile, hit show 'Desperate Housewives' dominated the Golden Globes television nominations - with four of its five lead female roles up for best comedy actress.
Teri Hatcher, Felicity Huffman, Eva Longoria and Marcia Cross have all been nominated for the award, with Felicity also submitted for her gender bending role in new movie 'Transamerica'.
Screen beauty Keira Knightley, up for best actress for 'Pride and Prejudice', said: "I'm sure I won't win but it's nice to be recognised - especially against all the other nominees." Other stars in the category include 70-year-old Dame Judi Dench, Sarah Jessica Parker and Reese Witherspoon.
Pierce Brosnan, Johnny Depp and Joaquin Phoenix will fight it out for best actor at the glitzy award ceremony on January 16.

I always suspected Clooney of being one... but it does come to me as a shock that KING KONG himself is gay too. Sheesh. Cheetah will cry over this.
Dame Judi does radiate a pretty strong gay aura about her... does she not?
Sarah Jessica always had a gay vibe thing going on there...
Keira and Reese should do the next gay cowGIRL film together - the Uma Thurman flick (Even Cowgirls Get The Blues) needs updating... right?
I do not care to see the former James Bond 007, the Pirate Jack Sparrow and "Johnny Cash" (really Pierce, Johnny and Joaquin) go gay... but I have nothing against seeing these Desperate Housewives become truly desperate and "gayly go..." where plenty of housewives have gone before actually! BE HONEST AND ADMIT IT - "LADIES"...!
Seriously now - it is official; Hollywood has really gone to heck now. Just years ago, it would have been the most absurd joke a stand-up comedian could have made "to make a GAY COWBOY FILM"... And now, it is up for a bunch of Golden Globes... Oscars too with that?!? Sheeeeeeeeeeeeeesh...

Nice little cartoon I saw recently had a very blasé couple -a straight couple... sheesh... these days, it has to be specified- going to the movies and hesitating between which film to see...
"Interspecies relationships"
(KING KONG)
or
"The Lone Ranger out of the closet"
(This broken back up on a hill thing... BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN... yeah... I knew that!)
*LOL*
Oh yeah...
before anyone asks...
The cartoon is one panel only - we don't get to see what the couple chooses to go for...
I would say... King Kong?
Men and women seem to be two different species oftentimes...
*LOL*
Willie Nelson releases gay cowboy love song

NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Country music outlaw Willie Nelson sang Mammas Don't Let Your Babies Grow Up to Be Cowboys and My Heroes Have Always Been Cowboys more than 25 years ago.
He released a very different sort of cowboy anthem this Valentine's Day.
Cowboys Are Frequently, Secretly (Fond of Each Other) may be the first gay cowboy song by a major recording artist. But it was written long before this year's Oscar-nominated Brokeback Mountain made gay cowboys a hot topic.
Available exclusively through ITunes, the song features choppy Tex-Mex style guitar runs and Nelson's deadpan delivery of lines like, "What did you think all them saddles and boots was about?" and "Inside every cowboy there's a lady who'd love to slip out."
The song, which debuted Tuesday on Howard Stern's satellite radio show, was written by Texas-born singer-songwriter Ned Sublette in 1981. Sublette said he wrote it during the Urban Cowboy craze and always imagined Nelson singing it.
Someone passed a copy of the song to Nelson back in the late 1980s and, according to Nelson's record label, Lost Highway, he recorded it last year at his Pedernales studio in Texas.
Nelson has appeared in several western movies and sings He Was a Friend of Mine on the Brokeback Mountain soundtrack.

How disappointing to see, Willy Nilly, that even thee would jump upon this matter of bandwagon...
