Happy Friday!
Lily Tomlin and Laverne Cox share a scene in Grandma, which is reason enough to see it.
Taylor Schilling was on Seth Meyers where she talked about a sex accident she had with Laura Prepon on set.
People magazine has the first photo from the set of the new all-female Ghostbusters and it’s of Kate McKinnon and Melissa McCarthy.
Cameron Esposito is totally cool with you calling her a “lesbian comic.”
Ellen Page will host a new show for VICE’s TV channel called Gaycation “where she will travel around the world and explore the local attitudes toward LGBT culture in each city she visits.” Ellen, do you need a sidekick? Or someone who tries out the lesbian bars with you?
The Daily Beast interviews Lea Delaria about Season 3 of OITNB, where she talks about butch visibility.
“First of all, butch visibility hasn’t been great because a lot of those images are controlled by heterosexuals. Two, the queer community basically puts us down as well. Butch dykes and nelly fags are the pariahs in the queer community. They would rather we didn’t exist. In fact, they’re kinder to the trans community than they are to us. So given those two things, it’s been a rough ride. I’ve been swimming up this stream for a long time, basically trying to put a human face on butch. My entire career has been, “Don’t judge a butch by its cover.” When people see me act, they’re like “really?” They have preconceived notions of what it is to be butch. Those notions are fueled by heterosexual media and queer self-loathing.”
Snap, snap!
Samira Wiley is on the cover of DIVA this month. The interview has her talking about her she’d have Poussey hook up with if she had a choice:
“That’s a good question. I’m [thinking] of who would make her happiest and who would also want to be with her, but I don’t know if that person’s there yet. I definitely know that I’m really bad at linking up stories or writing stories as opposed to the actual writers of the show, so whatever they come up with I’m sure is going to be best! We’ll have to wait and see.”
