Daily Roundup: Mom’s a lesbian!

For those of us (ahem) of a certain age, we spent a good chunk of time with our TV mom, Meredith Baxter on Family Ties. This morning, she told the Today show that she’s gay. Reached for comment from his office at Goldman Sachs, son Alex P. Keaton refused but is said to be devastated.

Meanwhile, in the real world (or at least, our shaky grasp on it), actor Rupert Everett popped up again to tell Baxter she’s made a big mistake. Oh Rupie, you scamp, don’t ever change!

And seriously in need of a hug from mom today are the members of former Canadian boy band B4-4, who got a drubbing from the Dlisted site they won’t soon forget. Ouch! Even Mallory would never be that cruel!

A former editor of the late, lamented fab magazine, Scott has been writing for Xtra since 2007 on a variety of topics in news pieces, interviews, blogs, reviews and humour pieces. He lives on the Danforth with his boyfriend of 12 years, a manic Jack Russell Terrier, a well-stocked mini-bar and a shelf of toy Daleks.
