A lot of Instinct readers who commented on this week's Tracy Morgan story wanted to know what, if and when 30 Rock creator and star Tina Fey would chime in on the matter. (Some even threatened to boycott the show and NBC until further notice. Read comments here.)
Turns out, the GLAAD-applauded celebrity has plenty to say about her co-star/friend's homophobic rant and subsequent apology, and, in my opinion, it's just as silver-tongued as one would hope for from the esteemed writer. Read Tina Fey's comments, after the jump.

We aren't going to patronize Maggie. We aren't going to say, "look at you! You're so smart. You found a new way to seductively instill anti-gay beliefs into your followers." We won't even say, "good luck, you're on a sinking ship." However, we will offer up some of our compassion so that maybe, just maybe, you can realize that by disregarding same-sex marriage you disregard families. The rhetoric she's now pushing is after the jump.

Tags: lifecycle, quad buster, aids, hiv, the ride, fundraiser, the cause It's already day 6. I can't believe it until I try and sit, then the soreness reminds me. By far, this has been the most challenging activity I have ever done. It's not only physically demanding but, mentally demanding as well. Did I train enough for this? I thought so! But as I've tackled hills called Quad Buster and The Evil Twins I wish I'd trained just a little bit more. But I did it and I conquered! I've asked myself (and my teammates) why am I here. I ask it rhetorically. I know why I'm here. I'm here to try and make the world a better place. HIV/AIDS has a stigma in society. But most importantly it affects lives. It steals lives and no one likes to talk about it. Why? Because of the stigma—it's been deemed nasty. Well enough is... FULL STORY

Ah, the '90s; though we're not old enough to remember the decade (we hear you snickering!), they were an innocent time of busy-colored/patterned shorts, knee-high white socks...and, of course, voguing. Now in his late 20s (but still cute!), Robert Jeffrey looks back on the pre-Glee years by posting a video homage to Madonna of him voguing as a nine-year old; let us tell you, kid can WERQ!

Updated Friday, 2:45 p.m. EST
Earlier this month a rough-cut of the new music video for Robyn's "Call Your Girlfriend" leaked to the Internet. Robyn didn't mind, though. Taking to her Twitter account on June 3, our favorite Swedish import (sorry, Ikea), wrote, "Can´t stop wondering who leaked the call ur girlfriend video. Some one did it. I wish I could be the fly on the wall when it happened.."
But today, the official HD version of the music video finally premieres... and it's definitely worth a watch, after the jump!
