Totally hunky, totally out superstar designer Tom Ford unveiled plans late last week to expand his own fashion line into a worldwide mega brand, with over 100 Tom Ford stores opening up internationally over the next 10 years.

Milan, London, Los Angeles, Hawaii, Dubai, Hong Kong, and Moscow are just some of the places where the boutiques, either wholly-owned or franchise-operated, are expected to open in the next few years. Plus, Ford's line will be carried in Bergdorf Goodman and Neiman Marcus, as well as in other international luxury department stores from Brazil to Japan.

Ford launched his flagship store on NYC's Madison Avenue in April this year; it got a ton of press for its supposed attention to customer service and its exclusive attitude - including in-house butler and maid service - but was criticized in a big way by the New York Times.

After 90 minutes of calm debate that saw all Republicans (and two Democrats) siding against it, San Francisco Assemblyman Mark Leno's gay marriage bill - similar to the one he introduced in 2005 - passed the California Assembly 42-34 late Tuesday.

If the bill does pass the Senate, which it did in 2005, Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger has already stated he would veto it a second time.

When the California legislature OK'd gay marriage in 2005, it became the first state in the nation to do so without any sort of court mandate.

Did Californians realize, when they elected him, that the Terminator would wind up being the only thing that stood between them and gay marriage?

OH, and also: Paris Hilton isn't in jail anymore.

Funny face aside, it's clear Mr. G has been working out. Yum! Hot treasure trail, Jake! Further evidence that manscaping is so overrated.

Rumors have been flying that he and Reese (who are an item) may be expecting, since they've both been seen leaving the doctor together several times in as many weeks. Image and story via WOW Report.

Also: On the subject of hottie straight celebs who pander to the gays, over the weekend Enrique Iglesias played London's huge club G-A-Y...and at the part of his set where he would normally take a girl on stage for the song "Hero," he serenaded a boy instead, complete with a touchy-feely moment at the end. Video here! (It's actually kinda hot!)

We don't feel fear either after a few rounds of Bolli and Stoli, but Absolutely Fabulous' Joanna Lumley seems like she's one ballsy broad, even out of character. At a recent court hearing, it was described how she was at a bar in Sheffield, England, when a man casually revealed a gun:

"Prosecutor Nigel Duckworth said: "One might think it quite a brave action. He told Miss Lumley he was not going to use the gun but claimed he was undercover and needed it for protection...Miss Lumley knew police had been called and she engaged Cottam in conversation until firearms officers arrived," goes the story, via Towleroad.

Also: Could Patsy...er, Joanna...have been at the bar celebrating the fashion world's expansion to the Subcontinent, with the just announced first issue of Vogue India slated to hit shelves in September?

In a surprise move, Paris Hilton left the MTV Movie Awards on Sunday night, spent a few hours at home, then turned herself in early! (Which explains why she looks so glam in this booking photo. Honey, those extensions are just asking to be ripped out!)

She was supposed to show up at L.A. County Jail today, and earlier rumors had her pegged to make a Naomi-esque photo-op before she went behind bars. Instead, in what might be rare act of humility (?!?) we are only afforded a short glimpse, at the wee hours of the morning, of Paris, silent in the back seat with her mom Kathy beside her, driving away from her house...we love how they kept the car windows down, of course.

What are we going to post about for 23 days??
