Gossip Roundup: Lance Bass Admits to Long-Simmering Crush on JC Chasez

• Yes, former N'Sync member Lance Bass — formerly known as the "one that wasn't Justin" — is out of the closet. Go and watch video footage of him being gay! [TMZ]
• After going into false labor, Britney Spears realizes she needs to "cut down on the Cheetos." She needed to go to the hospital for the tip-off? Wouldn't a mirror have sufficed? [Scoop]
• John Edwards sucks up to Russell Simmons for the African-American vote, accompanying him to his daily Jivamukti Yoga class. If there's one candidate we could tolerate in a downward dog, it would have to be Mr. Sunshine. [Lowdown]
• Tori Spelling won't even inherit a million dollars of her late father's $500 million estate. It's suspected that Tori's bitchtastic mother cut her out of her father's will, leaving poor Tori to survive on 90210 residuals and So NoTORIous peanuts. [Us Weekly]
• Christie Brinkley's philandering fourth husband Peter Cook once refused to give Alexa Joel, Brinkley's daughter with Billy Joel, a ride home at 11 PM. Cruel — god forbid she ride with her father at that hour. [Page Six]
• Madonna must shit only where no one has shit before: she requests a brand-new toilet seat, wrapped in plastic, at every venue where she performs. [R&M (last item)]
• B. Smith, "the black Martha Stewart" (is that an oxymoron?), is jockeying to replace Star Jones as the token woman of color on The View. [Page Six]

I don't blame Madonna - who the hell likes shitting in a bathroom that's not in your own home, much less, at a concert venue?

If anyone thinks that Tori's mom is a little unfair with this inheritance thingy, they should watch "So NoTOTIous" (is that still on?). Tori wrote her mom's role as a Joan Crawford with better make-up blending.

Does that mean that Brandon Davis and Paris Hilton will soon be laughing about how poor Tori Spelling is?

So Reichen was the top in that gay Amazing Race couple? Or has Lance not figured out how these things work yet?

Either way, I hope their relationship lasts longer than the "marriage" that Reichen was in when he was on the show. If Reichen breaks Lance's heart, we might have to hear another Nick Lachey-style breakup song on the radio.

That cover photo is priceless. There is no better facial expression for conveying, "I'm here, I'm queer, and I made a lot of money in NSync, bitches."

I don't understand what rumors he was hurt by? Rumors he was gay? He is gay. Rumors he was straight? Rumors that Colin Farrell is going to get eaten by Lance's happy/crazy face on that there cover? Blah.

Defamer's coverage of this included the quote:

"He took years to really think about how he was going to tell everyone," says his close buddy Fatone, 29, who was the first 'N Sync bandmate to find out Bass is gay. "I back him up 100 percent." [...]

Anyone find that last sentence particularly funny in article about how gay Lance Bass is?
