Ricky Martin Comes Out... For Hillary

121886Ricky Martin is officially living La Vida Pantsuit. Four days before the Puerto Rican primary, the has-been boricua pop star has announced his support of Hillary Clinton. Expressing gratitude, Hillary issued a press release commending the Gandhi-like Martin for his committment to "improving the world through his philanthropic work." It's safe to say this is the most politicized day of Martin's life, between endorsing Hillary and Gov. David Paterson's decision to recognize marriages between Ricky-type people in the Menudo alum's adopted home of New York.

Fashion Faux Pas

Rachael Ray Isn't the Only Al-Qaeda Sympathizer

121827And you thought Rachael Ray's greatest crime was inundating the airwaves with cheesy catchphrases and popularizing mediocre recipes. According to some conservative wackos, she might be a terrorist sympathizer, too: After the daytime star was spotted wearing a keffiyeh-style scarf in a recent Dunkin' Donuts ad, right-wing squawkers like Michelle Malkin immediately proposed a boycott of the chain, claiming the garb was "a regular adornment of Muslim terrorists appearing in beheading and hostage-taking videos." The coffee giant blamed the fashion faux pas on a stylist today and announced it was halting the campaign effective immediately. But Ray is hardly the first famous person to be seen wearing the trademark Arab garb. Keffiyehs have been worn by downtown hipsters and celebs for years now. And Malkin conveniently failed to point out that the trend seems to have caught on with some of George W. Bush's closest family members, too.More
