Jack Black (Maybe) Goes Gay
Is this Jack Black's first gay role? As a small-town Texan teddy bear who goes off the deep end, it might be. But, because the real-life man he's playing isn't out, we may never truly know.
Enter "Bernie," an offbeat black comedy based on a true story of a flamboyant people-pleaser who befriends the local she-devil, and then turns on her. As the titular mortician who is, as one townie calls him, "light in the loafers," Jack - known for fun-loving roles in "School of Rock" and "Tropic Thunder," and a hilarious kidnapping cameo in last year's "The Muppets" - is totally non-Black, playing Bernie Tiede with understated finesse, an effeminate lisp and an endearing touch.
We got Black on the phone for an exclusive chat about his maybe-gay turn, what he has in common with Bernie and how LGBT rights is a "no-brainer" issue for him.

Melissa Etheridge (Kind Of) Opens Up
Come to her window, but Melissa Etheridge won't be around. Why? Because she's everywhere else - on tour through the summer and in the studio laying down tracks for her first album since 2010's "Fearless Love."
And, in the midst of a heated custody battle with her ex, she dished on both during our recent interview: what to expect from the new music (songs about her split, of course), tentatively due in September; how, despite her breakup, "it's not as heartbroken" as past albums; and, of course, getting underwear-bombed onstage.

The Real Mike Ruiz
A child imagines life outside reality by creating a wild, monster-inhabited world of escapism in "Pan's Labyrinth," a stylistic fantasy-art film released in 2006 from Guillermo del Toro. That world, or at least a version of it, is very familiar to Mike Ruiz.
As a kid, growing up as one of few ethnic people in Quebec, he envisioned an alternate reality that transcended his drab real-life. Little did he know that years later he'd be implementing it "into" real-life: he's famous for his celebrity photographs, capturing the who's-who of Hollywood in another light.
