Michael Stipe is not happy that Donald Trump and Ted Cruz used the R.E.M. song "It's The End of The World As We Know It" at their Iran deal rally, telling The Daily Beast "Go fuck yourselves, the lot of you—you sad, attention-grabbing, power-hungry little men. Do not use our music or my voice for your moronic charade of a campaign.”

Google searches show the dramatic change in how America feels about gay marriage: The top gay-marriage related search in 2004 was "against gay marriage."

In 2015 it's "marriage equality."

It's been a couple of weeks since we checked in on Days Of Our Lives, but with Gabi coming back next week, at least we'll have Will back in the picture. On the bright side, the dead weight continues to be given the heave ho!

And here's The Weekly ShoutOUT™. Each week we're going to focus on one out athlete/performer and feature a daily pic and career timeline. We'll be showcasing the big names, but also the lesser-known gay and bisexual celebs who deserve more recognition. This week we give a ShoutOUT™ to ... James "The Amazing" Randi.

Of all the debunkings James has given us over the decades, his most famous would have to be this idiot.

Spoon bender Uri Geller fooled the world with his big bag of bullshit, but James exposed his fraud, including his cringe-inducing visit to The Tonight Show.

(H/T to David Leckrone for the suggestion of this week's ShoutOUT™. If you have a suggestion for an athlete/actor/singer/personality who we haven't featured and who deserves a ShoutOUT™, please drop me a line at therealsnicks@yahoo.com)

Continuing the top 30 live-action TV themes/openings of the 90's! At #10 is The Trials Of Rosie O'Neill.

“I’m thinking about maybe getting my tits done.” That opening line caused a firestorm of controversy when The Trials of Rosie O’Neill debuted on CBS (September 17, 1990 – November 15, 1991). Sharon Gless, in her first series since the iconic Cagney & Lacey ended, played the title character, a lawyer in the L.A. Public Defender’s Office. While battling the D.A., she was also working her way through a very messy divorce. The show also featured the gorgeous opening song “I Wish I Knew,” written by Carole King and performed by Melissa Manchester.
