James Van Der Beek Has Cancer + RIP Quincy Jones, 91 + Kamala Predicted To Win Nevada + Theo James In THE HOLE + MORE! — 12-PACK Comments (0)

ABOVE: When VP Harris wins tomorrow, the above will be a large part of the reason why. Lynda Carter agrees, and it's no Wonder why:

On the pro-woman Boy Culture tip, check out Melissa Manchester's GOTV anthem (not a fan of the AI-generated video, but the song's nice):

BELOW: Keep reading for James Van Der Beek's cancer diagnosis, RIP Quincy Jones, Kamala predicted to take Nevada, final Marist poll and more ...

EXTRATV: James Van Der Beek is battling colorectal cancer. This cancer affects gay and bi men disproportionately, and is slightly more likely to affect men in general, so stay vigilant, get checked, get colonoscopies as directed. Van Der Beek — who, sadly, is an anti-vaxxer — is participating in a new reality series called The Real Full Monty, in which he and other male celebs will strip to benefit cancer awareness.

EXTRATV: The great Quincy Jones has died at 91. It's impossible to overstate his importance in popular culture for the past SEVENTY years. He worked with everyone from Ella Fitzgerald, Ray Charles, Dizzy Gillespie and Frank Sinatra, to Lesley Gore, James Ingram and Oprah Winfrey. He scored In the Heat of the Night and produced the soundtrack for The Wiz. He, of course, produced the best-selling album of all time, Michael Jackson's Thriller, not to mention Off the Wall, Bad and “We Are the World.” He left his mark on TV, movies and most of all music. Without him, there would be no Spin, no Vibe, no Fresh Prince of Bel-Air and no MADtv. And then, in 2018, he let us know Brando fucked Richard Pryor and Marvin Gaye, along with James Baldwin. RACONTEUR.

VARIETY: Spermy sheets were originally seen in the opening credits of Queer, but it was apparently ditched.

THE GUARDIAN: Robert Mapplethorpe would be turning 78 today. In his memory, check out Jack Fritscher's wild recollection of their nasty l'il affair. It's so fascinating, and Fritscher is a real archive of all things gay.

OUT: Theo James is starring in something called The Hole.

THE DAILY INDY: Jon Ralston, the dean of Nevada political prognostication, believes Kamala will eke out win there, 48.5-48.2. He has never yet missed predicting a presidential vote for his state. He is full of praise for the state's Senate candidate, Sen. Jacky Rosen, and predicts hers will be a more comfy 50-45 victory.

NPR: The final (?) A+ pollster to chime in on the state of the POTUS race is Marist — and Kamala is 4% up over Trump.

TWITTER: Pete Buttigieg deserves the Presidential Medal of Freedom for patiently reasoning with this idiot, who believes Jill Stein has been an activist and who thinks Norman Rockwell was painting 40 years ago:

INSTINCT: Out football star Carl Nassib, who some have sniffed at in the past as a potential Trumper, has come out in support of VP Harris. He writes:

#Harris2024 To all of my PA family, this election I am supporting Kamala Harris for president. She has been a champion for people like me her entire career and her accolades speak for themselves. I hope we can all come together no matter the outcome and remember to see each other for our humanity and know that we have much more in common than we realize. Plus we won’t have to deal with the robo calls and texts anymore so… silver lining:)

TIKTOK: Madonna did a Rock the Vote PSA in 1990, was caught never having even registered, then hilariously mocked herself and got right back to urging people to vote — and has voted reliably ever since. Since she first registered in 1992, and has always been a Democrat, it would appear she has voted: Clinton, Clinton, Gore (in spite of Tipper Gore), Kerry, Obama, Obama, Hillary, Biden and now Kamala.

@boyculturedotcom Madonna’s 1992 ROCK THE VOTE PSA was in response to reporting that she was not registered when she did a 1990 PSA. She changed her ways and has votes reliably ever since. #madonna #kamala #kamalaharris #kamalaharris2024 #harriswalz2024 #voteblue #boyculture #encyclopediamadonnica ♬ original sound - Matthew Rettenmund/BoyCulture
