Stephen Colbert Discusses Recent Gay Marriage Rulings

Stephen Colbert Discusses Recent Gay Marriage Rulings
Last week the United States (well… at least those of us who matter) welcomed a huge series of victories for supporters of same-sex marriage. But the real question on everyone’s mind is… what does Stephen Colbert think about it?

Following the one of the most recent wins, the striking down of Alaska’s gay marriage ban, Colbert decided to publicly address the wave of gay marriage victories on “The Colbert Report.” And he did it in true Colbert fashion:

“Gay marriage is legal in Alaska! Gay couples will have the right to celebrate the traditional Alaskan way — by having Bristol Palin cold-cock one of their guests! Of course, as much as I love America, as a person of faith all that matters to me is the position of the Catholic Church. And that position has always been guy on girl, lights on, little weeping, little praying, straight to sleep.”

Shia LaBeouf Says Whiskey Made Him Grab Alan Cumming’s “Sexy” Ass

Shia LaBeouf Says Whiskey Made Him Grab Alan Cumming’s “Sexy” Ass

Screen Shot 2014-10-15 at 1.30.28 PMBroadway veteran Alan Cumming has been named the sexiest man alive by Shia LaBeouf, who says he was arrested outside a Broadway theater in June for basically trying to seduce Cumming during a live performance.

LaBeouf’s erratic behavior was documented that day by paparazzi in New York, who claimed he had been visibly intoxicated while sparring with a homeless man in Times Square hours before.

LaBeouf says he had been drinking whiskey continuously for almost 24 hours before he was invited by a male dancer to a performance of Cabaret on Broadway, in which Cumming plays Emcee:

“Alan Cumming walks past me, and all I can think about is his leather pants and him winking at me. So he walks past me and I give him a slap on the ass because I think he deserves it. He’s seducing me — he’s the sexiest man I’ve ever seen, and I didn’t just slap it, I slapped and grabbed him. Like I grabbed a whole cheek because I wanted the party right here in my pants.”

U.S. Marine Probed In Murder Of Filippino Transgender Woman – VIDEO

U.S. Marine Probed In Murder Of Filippino Transgender Woman – VIDEO

Marine accused of transgender filippino woman murder

Police in the Philippines preparing to file murder charges against a U.S. marine suspected of killing a transgender woman will ask American officials to arrange the marine’s surrender, reports Bloomberg.

An October 12th police report identified the victim as Jeffrey Laude – also known as Jennifer – who was found dead in a motel bathroom in Olongapo City. Laude had been strangled.

Witness Elias Gallamos said Laude entered Celzone Lodge on the evening of Saturday, October 11th with an “unidentified male white foreigner” aged between 25 and 30 with a marine “style of haircut.”

A friend of Laude said that after she met the foreign man in a nightclub, Laude became uneasy because the man hadn’t realized they were transgender. The friend also identified the marine in a photo lineup.

Vowing to investigate the allegations, the U.S. Embassy said in a statement:

“We are aware of the situation and express our deepest condolences to the family and friends of the deceased. We are also aware that there are allegations that a foreigner, including possibly a US national, was involved in the incident. We are currently looking into these allegations and working closely with the Philippine National Police to take all necessary steps to help identify the suspects.”

A report in May showed that 102 transgender people across 14 countries had been murdered up in the first five months of the year.

Watch a report, AFTER THE JUMP…
