News Round-Up: October 25, 2019

Some news items you might have missed: • InstaHunks: Woofy Brett Miles and Alex Abramov (above) have their Halloween costumes down. They’re dressing up as….Fire Island gays! #TheyConvincedMe • NewNowNext: Megan Mullally will miss two episodes of the final season of Will & Grace giving more fuel to the rumors of a feud with Debra Messing. • Washington Examiner: A reporter at the conservative newspaper got a call from White House counselor Kellyanne Conway. It didn’t go well.

• KIT212: Kenneth’s weekly gay rag roundup finds the gays gearing up for Halloween • Variety: Colin Firth and Stanley Tucci will play a gay couple on a road trip in Supernova, a romantic, modern love story that “follows two people who are bound together by their love for each other but being pushed apart by the situation they find themselves in.” • New Music: 3-time Grammy Award-winning vocal group Pentatonix drops this lovely cover of the Beach Boys’ “God Only Knows” from their new Best of Pentatonix Christmas album. While a Beach Boys song may not immediately ring Christmas bells in your head, ever since the tune was used in the closing credits of the uber-romantic Love Actually (2003), folks consider it a holiday-appropriate tune. I find the new version refreshing & sweet. Hit play below.
