Happy 32nd Birthday to out singer/songwriter Matt Morris! Did you know that Matt's dad is 80's country superstar Gary Morris? And that Gary had the first hit version of "Wind Beneath My Wings" back in 1983? And Gary and Crystal Gayle sang the theme to the soap Another World? And Gary starred in The Colbys as a blind singer signed to Dominique Deveraux's record label? Well, now you do. Speaking of singers surrounded by drama, Whitney Houston has voluntarily checked herself back into rehab. While Whitney is recovering, her classic "I Have Nothing" is in good hands, thanks to 14-year-old Jack Vidgen on Australia's Got Talent. (h/t Crawfish Po Boy). In ratings news, last night's Brothers & Sisters season finale was up 25%, while Celebrity Apprentice was down 23%. Sometimes there is justice in the world. Below you can see the latest webisode of Save the Date, the companion series to Setup Squad.

Julia Louis-Dreyfus is headed back to television – HBO has picked up her series Veep, about a U.S. Senator who becomes the Vice President only to find the job is nothing like what she expected.
One of the producers of The Revolution, one of the shows replacing the soaps on ABC, feels your pain. He didn’t know they were replacing such beloved institutions. The Revolution is a show hosted by Tim Gunn (gays taking over daytime) about a woman trying to lose weight over the course of five months.Can I just say I don’t get weight loss shows? I really don’t.
I find it incredibly sad that Simon Cowell dropped young Joe McElderry...

So I’m back from meeting up with all the big gay bloggers in San Francisco. I had a great trip, and will get something together for you about that shortly. First I have to clear it with the cabal, since I’m now part of evil Gay, Inc. according to Twitter.
But for now, on to the things you tuned in for. Since it’s Glee Day, let’s start there. First, do we have an earth shattering Klaine spoiler? And what about Karofsky? And which Gleek needs a psychiatrist? All of them? Plus, which Gleek had a turn on Blind Date before he was famous?
If any other celebrity had tweeted a picture of something that could be a joke, or could be Nsfw peen, I’d be certain that it was a joke. But when it’s James Franco, it could be peen as part of some art piece.
