HUGH HEFNER TO PHOTOGRAPH MILEY CYRUS IN THE NUDE

That is when the teen sensation turns 18.

Let me tell you what I think of Miley Cyrus when she gets that old.

Miley is going to be any of the above. A drug user, a teenage mother, a criminal, in jail, rehab, maybe even dead.

This is what’s happened to a lot of teen idols and former child stars. And if Miley Cyrus does pose for Playboy when she turns 18, she certainly won’t be the only child star that has. Remember Dana Plato from the 1970s hit citcom Diff’rent Strokes? She wound up posing for Playboy at 18, doing a porno film called Diff’rent Strokes: The Story of Jack and Jill… and Jill. And along the way, getting in and out of trouble for drug and forgery issues before ultimately committing suicide in 1999. Now Plato certainly wasn’t the only one taking up on Hef’s offer to take’em all off. Take Drew Barrymore, for example. After a successful early career as a child actress, the E.T. star wound up carrying the torch of the Barrymore Curse, becoming addicted to drugs, entering rehab at age 14, posing for Playboy at 18, and flashing off David Letterman on his show not long after. Like Dana Plato, Barrymore is bisexual. But unlike Plato, Barrymore’s career has since resurrected from the dead, with movies like Fever Pitch, and other projects that will wow movie goers for a long time.

So would posing for Playboy be helpful for Miley Cyrus? Let’s just see what further troubles she’ll get into as time goes on. We certainly don’t want to see another Britney Spears, or a Lindsay Lohan grabbing headlines the way Miley has recently done by posing for Vanity Fair.

HILLARY CLINTON WILL NOT MAKE IT TO THE WHITE HOUSE

She will lose out in the primaries. But not by much. Hillary’s best hope at this time is that she gets a call from Barack Obama asking her to his Vice Presidential nominee.

She’s lost too many states by now. She’s lost too many voters, and consequently, too many delegates and superdelegates, which, in this primary, will matter the most, since Barack Obama may not have enough delegates to clinch the nomination after June 3.

But boy, I’ll tell you, Hillary put up one good fight, and for that, she is to be highly considered for the Vice President’s job.

However, it is becoming more and more clear that Hillary is not the candidate for the White House. But that is not to say that women cannot run for the highest office in the land. If Shirley Chisholm could run for office in 1972, Hillary could do the same in 2008. And she did a better job than all the other women who have ever had.

Hillary Clinton may fall, but her dignity will remain intact. Girls are no weaker a sex than the boys.

RON SANTO CAN SING BETTER THAN TONY ROMO

You got it. Ron Santo can sing better. He is such a good singer there ought to be a coffee drink named after the will-be Hall-of-Fame Cubs’ third baseman/broadcaster. I mean, didn’t he hit more home runs than Brooks Robinson?

And what is Tony Romo? A singer with not a single note — and not to mention, a Roger Staubach-wanna-be. Which means the All-Pro quarterback for the Dallas Cowboys needs some singing lessons, preferably from either Carrie Underwood or Jessica Simpson.

Uhm, aren’t they both exes?

Well, the point is Tony Romo needs to learn how to sing. He can probably strike a fine chord in his birthday suit in the shower. But elsewhere, he’s a pain in the ass, who, for you longtime Chicago Cubs fans, should rather be the one whose legs get circled around by a black cat in the middle of a championship run.

Hey Tony, want to really sing, go hook up with any one of your exes, and maybe you can sound better. Otherwise, …

GO CUBBIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

IS THERE ANYTHING WRONG WITH GLBT MINISTERS?

Now really? Shouldn’t it be acceptable for gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgendered people to serve God and preach the gospel?

It is understood, of course, that several out ministers have been accepted by the church to preach, but if you’re supposed to “Love your neighbor”, then why not let them if they’re just as qualified and as applicable? I think GLBT ministers should be appreciated for the person that they are to other, and not be overshadowed by their personal lives.

Now some of you readers can say what you want about this issue, and you have the right to an opinion. But I support the idea of a GLBT minister, so long as they do not prey on little children, as such people have often been stereotyped as to doing.

Recently, author Honor Moore released a memoir called The Bishop’s Daughter. In it, Ms. Moore writes about her father, the late Rev. Paul Moore, who lived his life as a closeted bisexual.

To me, it seems as though, despite the growing tolerance of homosexuality in America, that what Rev. Moore did was what many GLBT preachers have done yesterday, and what they are doing today — to stay in the closet in order to maintain socially acceptability in the church.

I’m sure a lot of GLBT people in the ministry would want to come out, but there are those, on the other hand, who don’t want to face the burden that is homophobia on the part of those who would reject the notion that their minister is GLBT. Therefore, life, from the perspective of a closeted minister must be truly painful.

BARACK OBAMA WILL NOT GET TO 2,025 (LET ALONE 2,209)

He will fall short, and the primary season will end with the voters undecided.

There is only so many delegates left at stake, around 275 in all (not counting the delegates robbed out of Michigan and Florida). Obama needs to rack up 175. And that’s a very tall order when you’re running against a very strong candidate in Hillary Rodham Clinton.

This primary will end up in Denver, where the nominee will be decided. Now Barack Obama does have a decent shot at winning the nomination, afterall, having picked up nine superdelegates, plus a key endorsement.

Could Obama be the right man to answer the phone at 3:00 in the morning? Time will tell.

WHAT’S WRONG WITH SAME-SEX FIGURE SKATING PAIRS?

You know, two men and two women can play together on the same side in doubles’ tennis. And they can play just as well as a mixed doubles team of one man and one woman. So I’m not bringing up this idea of two men — or two women — skating together in pairs simply because of the movie Blades of Glory, which won movie lovers over two years ago.

But I think it should be an option for pairs figure skaters in international competition.

Michelle Kwan, why don’t you come out of retirement and ask Sasha Cohen to skate with you. You too, Rudy Galindo. Go ask Elvis Stojko to skate along to the tune of Old Blue Eyes. (Just using their names as examples.)

You know, I’m a bit crazy bringing this up. But don’t you readers think people could get a kick out of this. Two men skating together? Or two women?

I think the International Skating Union needs to allow the so-called “similar pairs” to perform in international competition, if these skaters wish to.

In other words, what’s with the “one lady and one man” rule? That sounds like the laws of marriage in most countries and American states.

Or maybe I’m just being a bit wacky with words. Yeah, that’s it. But you know, if you’ve read me, that’s just me being me.

MILEY CYRUS NEEDS A BREAK

Now we’ve all seen Miley’s racy photos, taken by renowned photographer Annie Liebowitz, in which Miley was almost in the nude. But you might not have seen some other racy shots of Miley, which can be seen by clicking on the fiollowing links.

Now I’ve got a bunch of young adult friends and grown-ups who have MySpace profiles and all that, and I’ve seen some weird pictures of them half-naked and making out and all sorts of stuff. But we’re talking about a celebrity here, someone with a high statue among the crowd. And when older people see that they don’t come to grips with the fact that someone like Miley Cyrus is behaving in the same girly-girl way that my friends are. However, there is a double-standard. When you do get famous, people get obsessed. And when people get obsessed they want to look into their personal lives. And when their personal lives reveal jaw-dropping photographs similar to the overly-candid racy shots of Miley they are going to cry foul over them. Well they might as well cry foul over my friends for the same reason. Much of my friends have posted photos detailing their personal lives and hobbies. Kind of the same stuff you’ll be looking at once you’ve clicked on these links here.

So what it all comes down to is that Miley Cyrus is just another young person having fun. And considering that she is only 15 years, we should all just give her a little break, and let this woman grow up.

LINDSAY LOHAN AND SAMANTHA RONSON… COULD THE PAIR LAST?

Well I wouldn’t be suprised if the electric wires have sparked. They seem to fit together just like Anne Heche and Ellen DeGeneres… uhm, when the latter pair drove people mad a decade before.

Lindsay has had her guys, of course, but that sure doesn’t mean she isn’t into girls, either. The former child star has already come out — seemingly to the attention of no one — on her MySpace profile, as documented on the list of bisexual people on www.wikipedia.com.

It is also well documented that Lindsay has written love letters to her “best friend” Samantha Ronson, a British-born DJ, who, like Lindsay, is also dealing with alcohol and drug issues.

Among the letters are some that were exchanged through MySpace and via text messages, corrdesponded during one of Lindsay’s much publicized stints of rehab following DUI arrests.

“Babe, if I don’t have you in my life, then I should just go die,” Lindsay wrote one evening while in treatment. “Your all I have to live for, babe. I want to marry you and have children with you. I need you to live.”

Samantha replied “You still have me. I’m here for you. With you.” It is interesting to note that Samantha was spinning records at Lindsay’s birthday party last year.

Lindsay continued on, writing “I love you. You love me. Why don’t we fuck and make a baby…” She ended the letter by signing her name “Lindsay Ronson”.

Something’s telling me that whatever happens in their lives Lindsay and Samantha have each other. And you know, if that’s the case, that’s the main thing.

ZAC EFRON KISSING ANOTHER GUY?

Now I’m not for sure if the guy wearing a baseball hat in the photo is him or not (link on the comment page), but if it is I wouldn’t flat out say to the world that Zac Efron is gay. I mean, what’s wrong with two guys having a little bit of fun? Girls do that, and everyone likes it. Take the Britney Spears-Madonna kiss during the VMA awards that one year, for example. People got a kick out of that.

The point I’m trying to make is that it is OK to show deep affections for other people regardless of gender. There’s nothing wrong with kissing another man (or another female, if you’re a woman reading this). I’ve done it before. It felt good. And if I want to I’ll do it again.

But to say that Zac Efron is a homo- or a bi-sexual based on viewing photographs of him kissing another guy, of someone who might look like him, for that matter, is to say that Britney Spears is a lesbian for making out with a famous rock star of the same gender. It is stereotypical, inhumane, and as far as I’m concerned, it should never be tolerated.

The moral is that people should be treated with dignity, and be accepted for what differences they may have from others. If Zac Efron really did kiss another man, big deal! Get over it. If Zac is gay then he is gay, but if he is then at least give him the chance and the time to let everyone in the world know that he is gay. And if Zac tells the world that he is gay then love him the same way you do now. That’s what the world should all be about: to treat your neighbor right.

Besides, Zac is just a boy. Let him grow!
