James Franco Gets Married to a Man: VIDEO

Franco

As do Andy Samberg, Ed Norton, and Zach Galifianakis.

Samberg

It all goes down in a music video from Samberg's troup The Lonely Island, which is set up as a sit-down talk show interview between Franco and Galifianakis cut together with a Spring Breakers-style booze and beach fest.

It's much harder to explain than to actually watch it, but here are the wedding photos.

Check out the video, AFTER THE JUMP...

David Bowie's 'The New Day' Clip is Bill Donohue Bait: VIDEO

Bowie

Marion Cotillard, as a prostitute with stigmata and Gary Oldham as a priest beating a beggar are among the naughty Catholic characters, including a whore-hiring Cardinal and a monk getting flogged, who join David Bowie for a romp in his new video "The Next Day".

Surely Bill Donohue's panties will bunch over this.

DJ Peter Rauhofer Dies After Battle with Brain Tumor

Rauhofer

DJ Peter Rauhofer, whom we reported recently was battling a brain tumor, has died, according to a message posted on his official Facebook page by his manager, Angelo Russo:

Today the music industry has lost one of it's true heroes.

With a heavy heart I must now report that Peter Rauhofer has lost his battle with brain cancer.

He passed quietly today and is survived by his mother, Helga, who resides in Austria.

She will transport Peter back home to his final resting place there, but to all that knew Peter, his heart will always be in New York City.

It makes me sad, not only that I have lost a friend, but that the world has lost an amazing talent and that future generations will never get to understand the magic that Peter created night after night all over the world.

He is gone too soon but we will always have the vast body of music that Peter left for us.

Through his music, Peter will live forever. The brightest stars always burn out too soon. Peter, you were loved and you will be terribly missed. Goodbye my friend. Please rest in peace knowing that you have brought so much joy to so many of us. I ask that his true fans keep his legacy alive by sharing his music with anyone who may not have had the opportunity to experience it for themselves.

Rauhofer was 48.

Our thoughts go out to his friends and family.

Hot 97 DJ Mister Cee: 'I am Not Gay' - AUDIO

Hot 97 DJ Mister Cee sought to clear up speculation surround his arrest last week for allegedly soliciting an undercover police officer posting as a prostitute, MTV reports:

MrceeThe legendary turntablist, who broke some of rap’s biggest acts, including the Notorious B.I.G., took to the airwaves Monday to tell listeners his side of the story concerning his arrest last week after allegedly soliciting an undercover police officer posing as a prostitute.

Numerous outlets reported that the solicited prostitute was male, so the disc jockey, born Calvin Lebrun, directly refuted those claims on air.

“I am not gay,” Mister Cee told program director Ebro Darden on the station’s morning show. "They tried to turn it around and say the female officer was a male officer. It was a sting operation.” ...

Despite the former Big Daddy Kane DJ’s adamant claims that the officer was female, rumors abound that this incident, combined with 2011’s charge of engaging a male prostitute named “Brook-Lyne,” proves that when it comes to sex, he prefers the company of men.

"Let's say if I'm lying, that's my choice," Cee said. "If I'm lying and I chose not to come out, that's my choice."

Listen to his appearance on Hot 97 this morning, AFTER THE JUMP...
