George TakeiGeorge Takei and Martina Navratilova hope to conquer the outback in "I'm a Celebrity ... Get Me Out of Here!"
Gay icons George Takei and Martina Navratilova are the latest out celebrity Submitted by on Thu, 2008-11-13 18:06. Better with Age: 9 of Hollywood's sexiest older men
Full Disclosure: Yes, my name is Rob Smith and I like older men. I like their confidence, the fact that they’ve grown into their looks, and the fact that they’re generally more put together than some of us younger guys. If I had to date another 26-year-old, I’d probably shoot myself. I don’t even know how my boyfriend deals with me sometimes! The guys on this list epitomize what is great about older men in a lot of different ways. Some are downright sexy, some are devastatingly handsome, and some have a “hotness” that comes from a combination of the two plus a regal charm that only men of a certain age seem to be able to pull off. So enough with High School Musical twinks and stick-thin underwear models, this one’s about the real men and those of us that love them! Submitted by on Thu, 2008-11-06 17:01.

William Shatner responds to George Takei's wedding snubNow, we're deeply embroiled in a discussion here on the AfterElton mothership about whether this video response by William Shatner to the George Takei wedding invite snub is the ramblings of a man whose celebrity and ego have rendered him unable to understand basic human interaction or a legitimate response to an inappropriate personal attack in the press. Whichever it is, it's absolutely fascinating to watch over poached eggs. Try it! Submitted by on Wed, 2008-10-22 08:21.

George Takei and his longtime partner, Brad Altman, made honest men of one another yesterday in Los Angeles when the two men were legally wed before a crowd of friends and family. Two two men were wed at the Japanese American History Museum, for which you may recall George won $130,000 recently on the game show Wanna Bet? The ceremony was a multicultural one to say the least, with a Buddhist monk, Native American wedding rings, a kilted bagpiper and a Japanese harp. Star Trek castmate Nichelle Nichols (Uhura) was the Maid of Honor, and castmate Water Koenig (Chekov) was Best man.

ULTIMATE X-MEN DISCUSSION ALERT: SAVE US MOVIE SIGN: "Let me start off with saying that within just reading the first few pages, I knew Berlanti, Guggenheim and Green had gotten the character right." Green Lantern Hal Jordan and director Greg Berlanti On the other hand, this part is a tiny bit worrysome "The script, if greenlit, is a sure-fire hit for fan boys, but in scale it's big, VERY big, and we are hearing rumors that it may be too big for the director currently attached, Greg Berlanti." I'll be disappointed if Berlanti is deemed as not having the experience for Green Lantern. After all, Bryan Singer and Christopher Nolan weren't blockbuster movie directors when they brought X-Men and Batman Begins to the multiplexes. And then comes the more surprising rumor of gay icon Cher as a possible Catwoman for the next Batman film. What makes the rumor rather interesting for me is the comment that Cher's Catwoman would be "like a vamp in her twilight years." Which strikes me as an interesting take on the iconic villain. I'd love to see a Selina Kyle who has benefited from years of villainy. Cher and Catwoman On the less-gay front there's talk of the Superman film franchise getting a reboot, Batman Begins-style. In the various reports I've read, I've seen Superman Returns director Bryan Singer compared to Ang Lee (who directed the first unsuccessful Hulk film), which makes it sound unlikely he'll be participating in the next Superman movie. Sigh, that's a lot of gays-getting-booted-from-superhero-movie rumors for one week, isn't it? TAKEI ALERT! George Takei in Red Alert 3 Actually, the Red Alert 3 cast has more than a bit of a gay sensibility. In addition to Takei, the cast includes gay faves like Tim Curry (whose history as a video game voice goes back as far as cult classic Gabriel Knight), Oz bad guy JK Simmons as well as Gemma Atkinson of Hollyoaks and the very gay Hollyoaks spin-off In the City. I'd be rather excited if most RTS strategy games — including the original Command & Conquor — didn't quickly end in frustration for me. After the break: When Fallout 3 is planning on destroying your social life, Hex' Thelma meets Elizabeth Bennett and the latest fates for Ultimate Colossus and Northstar.

It's a big week for wacky gay uncle George Takei (and seriously, I say that with utmost affection). First, he appeared on The Howard Stern Show yesterday (as he often does) and discussed his pre-nup with fiance Brad Altman and took a "gay pop quiz" on various gay terms and slang and he did pretty well (better than I would have done, actually!). Here's a choice tidbit from the show's official recap: Howard played a clip from yesterday's Wrap-Up Show of George revealing that he has two paintings of his fiancé in the nude, one of a young Brad and the other more recent. Howard asked George why he didn't just have a photographer take a picture, so George explained that he was friends with the artists. Howard also wondered if George ever pleasured himself to the pictures, but George said no: “I can't see them from the shower.” Then last night George was roasted at the Friars Club, which must have been a blast. If you remember, George was one of the highlights of the William Shatner roast, where he sat quietly on the receiving end of countless gay jokes before laying into the Shat and the rest of the roasters mercilessly. (If you want to watch a clip, check out this one, which has some language that may be a bit spicy for work environs.) Today Takei is back on Stern, where Howard and the gang are throwing him a bachelor party, and of course that means all sorts of perverted what-not. Still, pervy or no, gotta love Howard for treating his gay guests just like he does his straight ones, and bless Takei's heart and sense of humor. More pics from George's roast after the jump!
