Daily Buzz Bits: L.A. Pride, JFK Jr., Rufus & Jake, Whoopi & More!

Former pro-baller John Amaechi rides a wave with those rad Curl Girls at a big pre-Pride party, Friday night at the L.A. Sofitel.

John Amaechi was all over L.A. this weekend, whooping it up at Gay Pride events. He tall, smart and fabulous! (see above photo) And here’s a newsclip that’s got some fun pics and quotes (as well as dragster “Freida Laye.” Love her!) for all the Pride stuff. Plus more pics below after the jump!

AND...

So, is ABC being, like, hypocritical by not hiring back Isaiah Washington?

JFK Jr. didn’t shag Madonna, but he scored with guys? Wha...?

Rufus & Jake! Cutest couple ever.

And speaking of Rufus Wainwright... Vanity Fair has a totally great article about his entire family. They're intense! And they write brutal, beautiful songs about each other. And Rufus is sort of like, Queen Bee, natch.

Kelly Clarkson is totally rad. And not taking any sh*t. Go Kell!

Yo Majesty are some hot “Out Musicians to Watch!” (last page of the article)

GQ Magazine finds gay dads fashionable. Sweet!

Whoopi to take Rosie’s spot on The View? Works for me!

So Barry Diller and Diane Von Furstenberg are married. They’re “best friends.” But will 60 Minutes ask about Diller’s sexuality? Not really... But hell, I’d marry Diane Von Furstenberg, too. She rules.

The men of Noah's Arc are all up in John Amaechi's stuff. Whoa! He's so big he makes Trey look shrimpy! From left, Christian Vincent, Jonathan Julian, Benjamin Patterson, Amaechi and Gregory Keith.

More pics from L.A. Pride (Curl Girls, Noah's Arc, Joan Jett, Sharon Stone) after the jump!

Amaechi is flanked by Will Matthews (left) and Q. Allan Brocka; they're the creators of Logo's new sick new animated comedy, "Rick and Steve: The Happiest Gay Couple in All the World."

Angela Featherstone is one of the stars of Logo's upcoming lesbian-tastic sitcom, "Exes & Ohs." We like.

Lots of Logo talent rock the Logo booth at L.A.'s Pride fest. From left (here we go)... Marnie Alton and Michelle Paradise (of "Exes & Ohs"), "Curl Girl" Gingi, "Big Gay Sketch" star Michael Serrato, "Curl Girl" Michele, "Big Gay Sketch" star Nicol Paone, "Noah's Arc" star Benjamin Patterson, and "Curl Girls" stars Jessica and Vanessa.

Whoa. Sharon Stone is really happy to be watching what's on at L.A. Pride's mainstage. Go Shaz!

And hmmm... Joan Jett's never officially come out, but... Does she need to?
