Though I"ve never been there, I"ve heard Turkey is a delight. Turkish readers are even more of a delight. And having Turkish readers reading my column is the most delightful thing of all. Straight goods from Istanbul (thanks Z!) is that after a very brief split over spawning, Charlize and Stuart spent the last week of March and the first few days of April in Southern Turkey, enjoying the solar eclipse and shopping for local arts and crafts. See blurry photos attached. Apparently CharChar still hasn"t given up those ciggies. Sigh. Don"t we all have that problem? So that was last week. This week she"s back in North America being honoured at the GLAAD Media Awards. Love the dress, love the shoes, love the lips, hate the bitch. Still… doing right by the gays is a good thing. Which is why I like her a little more today than I did yesterday. Just a little.
