Party rallies around UK Lib Dem leadership candidate Simon Hughes after he's caught in sexuality flip-flop.
Last week, when questioned on whether or not he's gay: “The answer is no as it happens. But if it was the case, which it isn't, I hope that would not become an issue.”
Now: “I am perfectly willing to say that I have had both homosexual and heterosexual relationships in the past.”

Panty waste: David Beckham spends £1,000 a month on undies from the Calvin Klein Pro Stretch range and never wears the same pair twice.
Alan Cumming: “I like people who put their vanity second to their character. Sadly that excludes most of Hollywood! I think Botox is the worst thing to happen to American screen acting EVER.”
Arkansas Christian school dismisses student because he's gay:
“According to Guinn, he was told to not dress in women's clothing, not slap others on the buttocks if he was a member of a sports team, not hug or shake hands with other men for too long, not ‘broadcast' his lifestyle, and not tell other students he was gay until he knew them well. Guinn said it was difficult to make friends under the restrictions.”
The James Frey Effect: Memoirs by Augusten Burroughs to be slapped with a warning sticker: “Author's note: Some of the events described happened as related, others were expanded and changed. Some of the individuals portrayed are composites of more than one person and many names and identifying characteristics have been changed as well.” Perhaps they should say, “Don't believe everything you read.” I'd venture to guess 100% of memoirs out there have an anecdote tweaked for the mere purpose of entertaining. Stop the madness!
