The Oscars & Logo's Queer Year Winners!

240x360_jennhud240x360_meletheridge
Women on Top: Jennifer Hudson and Melissa Etheridge both scored Oscars last night, resulting in gay rejoicing all over the place.



The Oscars last night seemed fantastically lesbian to me... Ellen DeGeneres hosted! Melissa Etheridge won for Best Song and planted one on her wife, Tammy Lynn Michaels and thanked her excitedly once onstage. And I don't know the story behind that costume designer, Milena Canonero, who won the Best Costume Design Oscar for Marie Antoinette, but she was very cool (and channelling Judy Davis as George Sand, in that froofy costume drama-comedy Impromptu about 16 years ago). Loved that...

Love this shot! Oscar winning costume designer Milena Canonero (for Marie Antoinette) seems quite taken with her presenters, Emily Blunt and Anne Hathaway. Who can blame her, eh?



I was happy to see J-Hud win for Best Supporting Actress... And I was sorry Eddie Murphy didn't win, but there ya go.

But in other major gay movie news, the results from all of LogoOnline's Queer Year Polls are in. AND... Gay America (and elsewhere, I'm thinking...) totally voted for Helen Mirren, Jennifer Hudson and Forest Whitaker to all win Oscars! Yay! But us gays also voted for Eddie Murphy to win for Best Supporting Actor, and for Little Miss Sunshine to win Best Picture, so... Urf.

But even more fun might just be the non-Oscar-related categories that the gays voted for. The full list (and I mean full... it's long) is after the jump. Check 'em out. Turns out the gays love a sexy James Bond, and an even sexier (given the enthusiastic vote) Lost-star turned Bloodrayne warrior (meaning the women are liiiiving for Michelle Rodriguez). And you voted The Devil Wears Prada for Best Comedy and Children of Men as Best Drama, and Shortbus as Sexiest Movie, and Borat's rump-smooching won for Best Kiss and...

Awww, just check out all the gabby details, already...

And, go online to watch Queer Year in Film videos of our Logo panel gabbing deliriously about the year in Movies. (Full disclosure: I'm in the videos. Ack!)
