The California Supreme Court took a stance for equality on Thursday.

By overturning the archaic ban on gay marriage, the judges reaffirmed their belief that all residents of this great state should be treated the same under the law.

Now, a few prominent members of the LGBT community are speaking out to The Advocate about this historic day!

Ellen DeGeneres:
"I’m thrilled that the California supreme court overturned the ban on gay marriage. I can’t wait to get married. We all deserve the same rights, and I believe that someday we’ll look back on this and not allowing gays to marry will seem as absurd as not allowing women to vote.

P.S. I’m registered at Crate & Barrel."

T.R. Knight:
Our 'certain inalienable rights' are protected today. It makes me proud to live in a country that works to correct its sins."

Melissa Etheridge:
"I feel they have made an honest woman of me. What a wonderful blessing for us and the gay community. We’re moving forward. It makes me feel happy for the whole human race that we are finally getting out of our differences and coming together and we are putting this all behind us. It really is going to be the thing that we talk to our kids and our grandkids and say, 'That was the olden days — wasn’t that ridiculous?'"

Marc Jacobs:
" Who to love and how to love should be up to the individual or the couple. Enough said!"

Adult entertainment insiders report that Playboy is planning a move into the gay market with softcore cable video-on-demand.

It's about time!

Playboy plans to first offer Time Warner Cable subscribers 20 hours of gay male programming.

A start date was not revealed, though it's expect to launch within the next few months.

Looks like Playboy is trying to diversify, and it needs to!

Last week the company announced that its revenue dropped 8 percent and their domestic TV revenue was down by $2.6 million in the first three months of the year.

The Playboy gay programming will "depict erect genitalia, male-on-male fellatio and simulated or implied sexual intercourse" but, “shall not depict actual anal penetration, licking or anal sexual play of any kind.”

Male ejaculation and forced bondage are also no-no's.

Damn!

What's the point then????

You can get better stuff - for free - on the Internets!

Hey, at least this is some sort of progress. We have a feeling the closeted "straight" dudes will love this the most!

You'd expect a successful designer like Italian icon Roberto Cavalli to be hard driving and cold, right?

But, Cavalli reveals to UK Vogue that he's actually a big softy.

Cavalli says, "I give into my emotions all the time. I cry easily, whether at a movie, music or vulnerable young animals, and I could never trust anyone who didn't do the same."

The design queen then goes on the defense, however, adding that "I have never been homosexual, and I never could be. What I love most is the amazing soft skin of a woman. She doesn't even have to be naked to excite me."

It's less believable when you over do it!

Sad news for Jodie Foster.

As we mentioned almost two months ago, Jodie was being spotted out and about without her film producer girlfriend Cyndey Bernard.

Jodie recently spent Easter Sunday on the beach in Hawaii with her children and Cydney was nowhere to be found.

Now, reports are that the pair have split.

Bummer!

The couple have two kids together - Charles, who's nine, and six year-old Kit.

A source close to the couple is stating, "Jodie's break up with Cydney is shocking. She and Cydney have been together for so many years and have two children together - the potential fallout and legal wrangling from this could be monumental."

We hope it doesn't gets ugly!

Jodie and Cyndey have been together for over 15 years.

Wonder why the split?

Another woman??????

What do U think was the reason?
