Three Arrested in Attack That Left German Gay Rights Activist in Critical Condition: VIDEO
A 27-year-old German gay rights activist who was attending a LGBT conference in Belgrade, Serbia is in critical condition after sustaining “life threatening” injuries from an attack Saturday.
Three men have been arrested in connection with the attack – which was captured on CCTV footage, PinkNews reports:
Dusan Jovanovic, deputy director of the hospital where the man is being treated, said the man [whose name has not yet been released] has undergone surgery but is still in a “serious condition”.
He suffered internal bleeding and head injuries in the attack.
It is thought that he was set upon by a gang of men who screamed about “foreigners” in Belgrade, following the gay rights conference.

It’s unknown how much (if any) the man’s sexual orientation played a part in the attack. Anti-LGBT sentiment is rampant in Serbia though, with the government frequently shutting down planned gay pride marches

Betsey Johnson's 'Trendy and Transgendy' Celebration of Freedom in Marriage at NY Fashion Week: WATCH
At New York Fashion Week, designer Betsey Johnson’s “celebration of freedom in marriage” bridal drag ball was a smash hit – with gays, drag queens and wedding dresses galore.
Euronews reports:
“Trendy and transgendy. It’s a riot. It’s been the most fun to work on this show. A lot of more new, more abstract ideas. See-through plastic dresses and dresses made out of scuba fabric and horse hair,” she said.
Johnson’s naughty bride-themed collection for next season, cheekily named “Prenup”, featured some rather unconventional outfits, including one shimmering number made out of tin foil cupcake wrappers.
Check out a video of the fashion show in action, AFTER THE JUMP…

'Orange Is The New Black' Writer Divorces Her Husband, Starts Dating Poussey
In what is arguably the greatest love story of our time, or at least this week in particular, “Orange Is The New Black Writer” Lauren Morelli has broken up with her husband and since begun dating Poussey (Samira Wiley).
According to Morelli, it was writing scenes for Piper and Alex that gave her clarity on her own sexuality. “I found a mouthpiece for my own desires and a glimmer of what my future could look like,” she said (via TMZ).
TMZ goes on to report that the divorce has gone amicably following the couple’s two years of marriage, with Morelli keeping her Lexus and her ex-husband getting the Mazda hatchback, etc. Yet, as interesting as dividing up luxury vehicles may be the obvious point of this story is that Morelli is now in a relationship with Poussey and our hearts are just swelling with love right now and, hey, they look so good together in this Instagram:

Cheyenne Jackson Marries Boyfriend In Front Of Celeb Friends
Entertainer Cheyenne Jackson, 39, has married Jason Landau, his boyfriend of more than a year and who some media outlets are identifying as an entrepreneur (although of what it is unclear), at an estate in Encino, California Saturday night. The couple exchanged rings and vows in front of a group of friends that included Jesse Tyler Ferguson, Jane Lynch and Alicia Silverstone. The two men have been engaged since February. It’s been a controversial relationship. Last summer, Jackson divorced his first husband Monte Lapka after being married for two years and after a total of 13 years together and quickly took up with Landau, who according to a source he met at a 12-step meeting.
Jackson posted a photo taken just after the ceremony on his Instagram account with the message “M A R R I E D. Life is beautiful.”
“This means a new beginning for us,”Jackson told People magazine. “It was love at first sight and this is just the culmination of that.”
The Daily Mail reports that Jackson insisted on a woodsy-themed wedding to celebrate his Idaho upbringing.
“There were branches of trees hovering over the tennis court we’re on with over 100 mini chandeliers draping the entire party,” Landau shared. “It was gorgeous.”
