Kurt is far and away the bravest character on US screens right now. TV shows have a frustrating habit of de-gaying their gay characters until they’re simply straight boys who share a tepid kiss with each other just before sweeps. Teen shows in particular seem to steer as far away from the swishy, well-dressed archetype as possible, in the mistaken view that they will be accused of stereotyping.
Kurt Hummel flames through Glee, leaving no doubt of his sexuality, and this is why he’s a believable and sympathetic character. He’s a Beyonce-dancing, McQueen-wearing, hairwax-applying diva who can also make a 20 yard kick and help out his dad in the auto shop. He’s resilient, courageous and caring to the point of self-sacrifice, and has a barely disguised crush on Glee-mate and quarterback Finn which repeatedly gives him that Garland-esque wide eyed sadness which Colfer delivers so well. Moreover, he’s one of the most popular characters on Glee because of these facets and not despite of them.
Yeeeeees. I’ve heard so many compliants about Kurt being “too” gay or sterotyped. Read this.
21/11/09. Picked this beautiful lady up from the train station yesterday night after 7 months of not seeing her, and she as always looked straight out of the 50s with her light blue ”hat bag” that we had to drag around the city. This picture of her is probably my favourite that I’ve taken in a while — captures her so perfectly.

Artist Jean-Claude dies at 74
She met her partner Christo in Paris in 1958. They have been collaborating for 51 years.
The family statement said Christo was deeply saddened by his wife’s death but was “committed to honor the promise they made to each other many years ago: that the art of Christo and Jeanne-Claude would continue.” That includes completing their current installation, “Over The River”, a series of fabric panels to be suspended over the Arkansas River in Colorado, and “The Mastaba,” a stack of 410,000 oil barrels configured as a mastaba, or rectangle with outward-sloping sides, envisioned for the United Arab Emirates.
Like all their projects, these are intended to be temporary, a quality at the heart of the artistic enterprise. Whether executed in oil drum or brightly colored fabric, the art of her and her husband, Jeanne-Claude said, expressed “ the quality of love and tenderness that we human beings have for what does not last.”
