Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity in Florida shut after possible sexual assault hazing.

Meryl Streep's wise decisions via Page Six: "Donny Osmond brought down the house when he coaxed Nathan Lane onstage and sang him a love song from 'Beauty and the Beast' at the Christopher Reeve Foundation fund-raiser at the Marriott Marquis the other night. Lane, playing Belle to Osmond's Beast, deadpanned, 'My God, I thought you were Mormon!' Then, as Meryl Streep, Barbara Walters, Joan Collins and Miss USA Tara Conner watched, Osmond pulled Lane onto his knee for a mock marriage proposal. Streep, who'd earlier been asked to play Belle, told the crowd she'd made many important decisions in her career, and 'not being part of that skit was one of them.'"

Officials Investigate Possible Sexual Assault at Frat Hazing

The Sigma Alpha Epsilon at the University of Central Florida is under investigation after police raided the frat house during an apparent hazing exercise and discovered pledges in diapers, fairy wings, and women's panties:

"An incident report indicated that a male in the fraternity was spotted wearing pink fairy wings and women's underwear and was not able to walk on his own. The report also said the officers found a man wearing a pink tank top, women's underwear and a blond wig who was lying on the floor and vomited several times. Another male was sobbing on the floor wearing a rainbow-colored wig and a diaper."

Three students were found so drunk they had to be rushed to the hospital.

Evidence of the sexual assault was not named, but a slide show attached to the local news story noting the presence of "mangled hot dogs" may offer some clue.
