Cate Blanchett. Givenchy haute couture. Major. Red carpet. Moment. It is amost as if every other celebrity disappeared as soon as she stepped on the red carpet.

I watched most of the Oscars last night, and as much as I love James Franco and Anne Hathaway, the show was a complete bore. Not even Anne Hathaway's costume changes were exciting, and it all went downhill after the Inception opening clip. If anything saved the night, it was probably Colin Firth's acceptance speech for his Best Actor win.

Just because I am totally obsessed with Sofia Vergara. Love love love her.

In a country in which a gay kiss on national television is still a big taboo and in which we can count in one hand the number of openly gay celebrities, it is only natural that the first person to be eliminated from the eleventh season of Big Brother would be the first transexual woman in the history of the show with a history of prostitution.

It is a shame that Ariadna was sent home last night with 49% of the viewers votes when she was probably the one person in the Big Brother house this season with the power to push people's buttons and to make people think and perhaps reconsider some of their preconceived notions about sexuality.

Big Brother Brazil 11 may have lost its most interesting cast member last night, but on the gay front there are still two men in the house this season, along with a bisexual girl, and now possibly a lesbian as well. Cast member Diana revealed last night after Ariadna's elimination that she prefers to date women, even though she would consider also hooking up with men. It is too bad that the producers of the show don't have the balls to cast two hot gay guys in the same season to see what would develop if they were to hook up.

The eleventh season of Big Brother Brazil premiered last week, but since I was away on vacation until this past weekend I hadn't been watching it. Last season there were three openly gay contestants on the show, and the producers decided to top that this season with a transexual cast member who  also used to be a prostitute called Ariadna. Up until last night, she hadn't revealed to any of her cast mates that she is a transexual woman, but given that she is up for elimination tonight, she finally opened up to the two gay men on the show, Lucival and Daniel. Other cast members seem to have suspicions about her sexuality, but no one has brought it up so far.

I haven't become familiar with the cast members this season yet given that I started watching the show last night, but I would love for Ariadna not to be sent home on the first week, so am asking you guys to take the time to vote for either Janaína or Lucival to be eliminated today.
