We talk to Margaret Cho about tattoos, her romantic relationships with gay men, celebrities who come out later in their careers, her pick for “the next Gaga,” Adam Lambert, Ani DiFranco, Sex & the City and more.

We saw Twilight: Eclipse, and it made us feel feelings ranging from feminist rage to boredom to JUST THE TIP to Kristen Stewart is Hawt. An Autostraddle mini-Roundtable.

Queen Latifah still ain’t confirming she’s a homo, Adam Lambert fends off boys & girls in new interview, Kathy Griffin lays the smackdown on Elisabeth Hasselbeck on The View and smooches Mariska Hargitay, watch We Have to Stop Now’s free episode right here, and the new Riot Grrrls.

Here are Team Autostraddle’s recommendations for books to get you through the rest of summer — without rotting your brain.

I’m just a shell of myself. Ok, Brandy? I’m a shell of myself.

Autostraddle’s fearless guest correspondent Hayley braved hordes of screaming L word fans to bring you all the details of L7, the seventh convention for L Word fans, held in Birmingham, UK. Questions! Answers! Pet turtles! Ever wonder what Kate Moennig thought about Shenny or what Leisha Hailey has to say about Kate’s skills in the BOUDOIR? Read on, queers, so that you can sleep better at night knowing the answers.

The Real L Word premieres on Sunday, aren’t you so excitant? We reflect and look forward and read reviews and witness strap-ons. But really the best part is that Autostraddle’s Nat Garcia is gonna be doing exclusive Real L Word content for Showtime & Sho.com! I know! See! We got our grrrl in there, and she is perfect.

GO Magazine recently debuted their 2010 list of 100 Women We Love. Autostraddle loves this list a lot, too, because not only does it feature tons of awesome women, but a lot of them work for us!

Chely Wright ignited a media frenzy when she came out last month, but lesbians have had an out country/rock star to call their own for years — Jennifer Corday. With 3 albums and her music featured in films and on TV, Corday is on a roll as she completes her upcoming record. She talks to Autostraddle about being gay in country, why lesbians love girls with guitars, and tells tales of the trouble her Gretchen Wilson “Redneck Lesbo” parody has gotten her into.

Newsweek has a new article about gay people! This time, a new writer wonders if facebook might change the ACTUAL FACE of gay America? Also, Margaret Cho on Rue McClanahan, lesbian newlyweds are the first in the New York Times Vows video series, Dutch airline denies gay flight attendants request to not stay in Iran and South Africa’s only lesbian soccer team.

Lesbians, this has not been our week. The Real L Word premiered, and we hated it. Nicki Minaj redacted her bisexuality, Miley Cyrus keeps on fake-lesbian kissing everyone and I had to do research on Danielle Staub. At least Anna Paquin said some reassuring things about her sexuality, otherwise we’d just shut this place down.

GLEE Creator Ryan Murphy backs up Kristin Chenoweth and calls for a boycott of Newsweek until Setoodeh apologizes — and invites him to come on set. Also, Ramin Setoodeh has responded to the “internet backlash” and Kristin Chenoweth’s response to his homophobic article “Straight Jacket” in Newsweek and unsurprisingly, all he really does is dig himself even deeper. We break it all down for you. Lots of feelings on this one.

You’ve been standing there with a shoe and a scrunchie since our Accessories Guide Part One dropped. Now we’re back! Ready to tell time, cart baggage, clutch on, pin up, pierce out and travel in style? Perfect us tooo! Oh yeah, and belt it. JUST BELT IT.

Hello, are you coming to our party? Please do. We think these comments mean you’re all funny and it would be nice to be drunk in your presence, probs. Do you like my hat? Goodbye.

We met the French ladies behind Wet for Her, a new sex toy line by and for lesbians and let me tell you it was just wild I swear it. Also, eden’s fantasys exposed, miranda kerr topless, coregasm & more!

Alan Cumming’s latest blog post sums up the week perfectly, and addresses perhaps Newsweekgate’s most underasked question: “What is wrong with being effeminate, anyway?” It’s Friday, y’all. Let us praise ye wise men who know “queeny” isn’t even a word, give you some wisdom and share some of our favorite videos; Kurt’s Turn in Glee, Adam Lambert goes crazy, Alan Cumming emcees, Rickie finds World Happiness and Peter Paige finds Emmet’s truth.

Molly Landreth and Amelia Tovey have set out into the gay wide open to document the faces, stories and sounds of this crazy queer country in their amazing photo/bio project, Embodiment: A Portrait of Queer Life in America. They sat down with Autostraddle to talk about the incredible things they’ve been doing, where they’re heading next, and why this work is so important.
