Looks like it wasn't just lovely ladies in drag giving good face on the red carpet of RuPaul's Drag Race's season five reunion, held at the El Portal Theater in El Lay!

While famous contestants like Alaska, Jinkx and Roxxxy were all on hand to FIERCE up a storm of make-up, weaves, and fashion, they were also joined some EQUALLY drag-a-licious celebrities…including Chaz Bono, Snooki & JWoww, Dance Moms' Abby Lee Miller, Aubrey O'Day…and even our beloved LaToya Jackson!

Ch-ch-check 'em all out (above and below)!

Between all the werking, twerking, and FABULOSITY before our very eyes, we're feeling a little light-headed!

And this is JUST the red carpet!

Good lord, we cannot WAIT to watch all the drama that will surely come when this reunion airs in full!

How about U?!

Tears! Tears! Tears!

Our eyes are welling up because this is such a wonderful message from Barack Obama's LGBT supporters.

Watch Jane Lynch, Jesse Tyler Ferguson, Billie Jean King, George Takei, Wanda Sykes, Zachary Quinto, and Chaz Bono share their personal stories (above) about how the President's stance on equality has affected their lives.

What an amazing reminder of how FAR gay rights in this country have come!

Don't ask, don't tell is gone. Government employees share benefits with their same-sex partners. Same-sex couples now have hospital visitation rights. But perhaps MOST important was the president's historical declaration that he supports same-sex marriage!

He's the first Commander in Chief to do so and we sincerely hope he's not the last.

Say whaaaaaaaaaaat?

That's the rumor!! And we couldn't be happier (if it's true)!!

We've heard Cher and Tim Medvetz are planning a quickie Vegas wedding this Fall!

And get this — the wedding will be the grand finale of a badass cross-country roadtrip!! Classic!!

One source explains:

Aww! Such an AMAZING moment between a mother and son!

Chaz Bono was honored with the Stephen F. Kolzak Award at the GLAAD Media Awards and who better to present it to him than his mother Cher!

The annual award honors those who have dedicated their life in the media to fighting homophobia. Chaz is the 21sh recipient since it was first given to the Hollywood casting director for whom it is named after.

Other out and proud members of the LGBT community to receive the lifetime achievement include Ellen DeGeneres, Melissa Etheridge, John Waters, and Wanda Sykes.

Watch the video (above) to hear Cher has to say about her son's decision to transition and, more importantly, her own transition into fully accepting his decision!

She doesn't need to turn back time. Cher is as beautiful, inside and out, as she's ever been!

Last night, Cher's son Chaz Bono was honored at the GLAAD Awards with the Stephen F. Kolzak Award as well as the outstanding documentary prize for sharing his journey as a transgender in the documentary film, Becoming Chaz. After his stepmother Congresswoman Mary Bono Mack said a few words and played a video highlighting Chaz's contributions, who should gypsy, traipse and thieves onto the stage but Cher herself.

Obviously, the room went NUTS, including Chaz, who didn't know his mother was coming to support him.

In a brief but touching speech, Cher shared (ha!) that

Yay! Congrats, Chaz!

The Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD) is awarding Chaz Bono the Stephen F. Kolzak Award which recognizes an openly gay, lesbian, bisexual or transgender media professional who has made a difference in promoting equality.

GLAAD president Mike Thompson said about the decision:

It was a busy week for the tabs!

Poor Sandra Bullock. Everyone just wants to make sure she's making the right choices in life!

In Touch says that Sandy is involved in a "risky new romance" with sleazy director Brett Ratner.

Ruh-roh! We don't like the sound of that!

Then, of course, there's the BIG news that Snooki is knocked up! After weeks of speculation, she finally confirmed it to Us Weekly, giving the mag all the deets of her pregnancy and her engagement to boyfriend Jionni. Let us all pray…

Meanwhile, Star brings up the old news of Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith's crumbling marriage. Apparently, there's a particular someone who came in between the couple, which prompted "Wild nights!" and "Exotic Vacations!" Scandalous!

Speaking of scandalous, Life & Style are reporting that Kim Kardashian and Kris Humphries will be facing each other for the time in months in COURT! Kris will be "forced to tell the truth" about what their marriage was REALLY like and will apparently walk away with millions if a judge sides with him. Yikes!

The National Enquirer is concerned about Chaz Bono! Tipping the scales at 301 lbs., the tabloid says he's in need of life-saving emergency. We hope that's not the case, but we're thinking about him. Stay strong, Chaz!

And lastly, People took the classy route and honored the late Davy Jones, who died last week at the age of 66.

He will be greatly missed.

Soooo, which of these tabs do U want to get all the juicy deets from?
