olympics opening ceremony

The Olympics Opening Ceremonies on Friday charted Britain’s history beginning with the pastoral era through to the industrial age and on to the tech age and included a lesbian kiss between two characters on the television series Brookside that aired in 1994, which was shown as part of a montage of famous kisses during an homage to the modern phenomenon of cell phone hook-ups.

Let the Olympic Games begin and may the best woman win! I have day one coverage for you. This report contains completely subjective views of the Opening Ceremonies and actual out lesbians competing. It's the stuff NBC will probably not get around to covering. In the ceremony and on the Visa commercials I just kept thinking, "I didn't know they were Canadian." Joni Mitchell, Nelly Furtado, Sarah McLachlan...I just thought they were all from around L.A. somewhere. Plus k.d. Lang and hockey player Sarah Vaillancourt.

The Russian pop duo t.a.T.u played the Olympics opening ceremony pre-show.

Since the London Olympics Opening Ceremony on Friday, we’ve had The Beatles on our minds. Thus, we thought we'd post this great video from AG (Adrianne Gonzalez) for her cover of one of The Beatles’ classics, “I Wanna Be Your Man.”

This week the pop-culture depraved duo prattle on about Ross' gay dreams involving Catherine Zeta-Jones and Ellen Degeneres, Tracy putting on her best lesbian and bowling with the cast of SVU, the Olympics' opening ceremony and k.d. Lang representing for the dykes. Plus, Emily Blunt's mouth, a musical theater diva / primetime television mash-up and a special section devoted to the hot trainwreck that is the new "We are the World," including Celine Dion, Barbara Streisand, Pink, Jennifer Hudson, Fergie and more!

Norway wins at the Olympics and with this ad!

This is the headscratcher of the day!
