Rumor has it he will get to sing with legendary rock band Queen for two tour dates this year. And the openly gay Lambert isn't worried about being compared to the original Queen front man Freddie Mercury.

“After the EMAs, I heard faint little slithers of a backlash from people saying: ‘You can’t replace Freddie Mercury.’ But I already knew that," he said. "There’s no intention in my mind of replacing Freddie. That’s impossible. The way I’m choosing to view it is that it’s a great honour and one I’m in no way going to shirk... Being asked to front Queen is the best thing that can possibly happen."

Until then, fans can enjoy his latest release 'Better Than I Know Myself.'

In 1997, homosexuality was decriminalized. In 2001, it was delisted as a mental disorder. However, there are no protections for members of the gay community, and it is still condemned by many.

Bei-chuan said that many of the men get married because of societal expectations, and it isn't a positive experience for either partner.

Xiao Yao, a 29-year-old who was married to a gay man, even started a support website for other women who have gone through what she experienced.  

“Most gay men’s wives I’ve known are silently suffering at the hands of husbands who could never love them, and like me, some even got abused by husbands who were also under great pressure," she said. “The website makes them feel they’re not alone and empowers them to make the right choices.”

Some within the gay community are crying foul over the research. Xiao Dong, a gay man involved in HIV/AIDS prevention, challenged the results as “unsubstantiated” and “pointless."

In unrelated news, China has seen an increase in the number of 'married men only' clubs.

Following the piece, several people decided to share their not-so-nice opinions. The most disturbing comment: "It would make my day if someone was to do to him what those men did to Matthew Shepard."

The company's Terms of Service state that it “does not allow content that promotes hatred against users or groups of users. Protected categories include, but are not limited to race, ethnicity, age, gender, disability, sexual orientation, and gender identity."

GLAAD was advised of the comments and demanded Yahoo! do something about them. Yahoo! suspended all commenting on the article and removed several of the offensive posts.

"Young music fans should be able to interact and comment on sites without seeing violent, hateful comments directed at LGBT people," said GLAAD's Director of Digital Initiatives, Allison Palmer. "Yahoo! did the right thing by taking immediate action to enforce their Terms of Service, setting an important example for other leading websites and tech companies."

Of course, it is always easy to say nasty things when you can hide behind a screen name.

With movie awards being handed out left, right and center, there has been much ado about the friendly rivalry between George Clooney and Brad Pitt.

Both men have been nominated for several awards for their performances in 2011; Clooney for his role in Descendants and Pitt for his role in Moneyball.

The unnamed furniture maker was so angry, he wrote on Facebook: "What we need is another Hitler to exterminate those fags ‘cause there’s just too many of them multiplying."

A Lithuanian gay group got wind of the post and raised the issue with local authorities.

The man was charged with inciting hatred, and was fined $594 by the First District Court of Vilnius. The judge said the man was guilty for using "inflammatory rhetoric and encouraged mockery, defiance, discrimination and physical violence against a group of people or its members on the grounds of sexual orientation."

The man returned to Facebook to issue an apology. "It was not my intention to call for violence against gays and I feel sorry for what was written," he wrote. "I did not expect that this comment would insult anyone in the public domain."

He sounds like the kind of guy who is forced to apologize a lot.
