FINALLY- the glaad media awards

ok people, i am finally finding the time to post about the glaad media awards
see my friend glennda (of supper club fame) is one of the head honchos over at glaad (gay and lesbian alliance against defamation) and she asked us to work as celebrity escorts at the awards here in nyc at the end of march. we were glad to help out, see some celebs, and (most important to me) see all of supper club dressed up like sexy chocolate.

so jes and i got there around 2pm on the day of the awards. she in black trousers, white shirt and green sweater (very sexy) and me in black trousers, a pink striped shirt (i mean PINK yall), a black sweater and a black tie. ali, as per usual, was rocking the black outfit- she always wears black, monique had on a black wrap dress with neck scarf, kim had on trousers, a shirt and a vest with a tie that had scorpions on it and glennda had on a divine chocolate colored gown that was modern marilyn monroe (serious cleveland yall). anywho, as usual, i came with the hottest kids in the crowd. holla!

so shortly after we arrived we found out who we were assigned to. the assignments were as follows:

donna- lee pace & kate moennig - both are starring in "the guardians" a play here in nyc. lee pace was in a movie called "soldiers girl" and will be in "the good shepard." kate, as many of you know, plays shane on the L word and is hot as fuck. here is a pic of them both:



overall, they were both pretty nice. lee pace is a doll baby and was very protective of kate, who is incredibly shy. she is also incredibly skinny. i kept wanting to slip her some protein bars or something. their publicist was this woman catie, who was really nice and gave me two free tix to their play. jes and i went and saw it and its real deep. they are both really good in it and if you live in nyc and have the money, i would encourage you to check it out. it is playing at the culture project on bleecker street.

jes was in charge of kara janx of "project runway":



kara was pretty much always with daniel v. (once he got there) so i think she was pretty low maintenance. she seemed nice to jes. she even talked to her when she went out to smoke (kara smoked, NOT jes).

ali had daneila sea, who plays max on the l word. here is a pic of her and her sweetie, bitch (yes that is the name she goes by):



when ali gets here i will ask her if she has anything to say about her experience with daniela. from what i understand she was very nice and thoughtful and treated ali well. my favorite part of their time together was when ali had to carry bitch's PINK RAINBOW BRITE purse while they were on the red carpet. hilarious.

and finally, monique had this guy you may have heard of, his name is ANG LEE. he did this little ole movie called Brokeback Mountain. here is a pic of him:



she was about to wet herself when she found out she got ang. she loves loves loves him, so it was great to see her giddy as a school girl about it. next time i see her i will ask if she has anything she would like to add about him. i think he was nice to her. he had like four people with him. ang rolls deep i guess.

so overall it was a really fun time. exhausting and nerve wrecking at times, but really great overall. and after it was over, we got to go to the VIP party and have some free beer which i enjoyed a great deal (but got tipsy on b/c i had not eaten much during the day). i think the coolest part for me was when i brought lee and kate to the back stage area and in that holding room was:

1. erasure. i nearly wet myself
2. wilmer valderamma (fez from that 70s show)
3. phil donahue
4. margo thomas
5. petra nemacova (she's a model and she is tall yall)
6. michael douglas

this was all at one time. i almost fell over really. but everyone just seemed like regular people with a lot of make up on and really nice hair.

i can't wait to see who i get to escort next year...
