Morning Brew – Monday, June 18: LAdies NYght with “The Real L Word,” Glenn Beck wants to create an un-gay “Glee”
Good morning, Brewbies! Welcome to Monday! How many of you guys tuned into BBC One’s True Love last night to see some Kaya Scodelario/Billie Piper making out only to find – SPOILER ALERT! – an entire episode of The Doctor cheating on Downton Abbey‘s long-suffering head housemaid Anna? It was a double-whammy of depression. Apparently the Piper/Scodelario romance comprises episode three. Hurry up, I say!
Fans of The Real L Word should save the date for LAdies NYght.

You’ve probably heard by now that Lindsay Lohan was found unconscious in a room at the Ritz Carlton in Marina Del Rey on Friday morning. TMZ had their finger on the “publish” button of her obituary, but the troubled starlet was responding to the drama on Twitter faster than you can say “alcohol poisoning.”
Note to self.. After working 85hours in 4days, and being up all night shooting, be very aware that you might pass out from exhaustion &

Glenn Beck is planning to produce a Right Wing(nut) version of Glee. He wants all the singing and dancing and royalties without any of that pesky gay fornication business. Over the sound of bleating sheep at the Faith & Freedom Coalition conference on Friday, Beck said, “It’s horrifying some of the things Glee is teaching high schoolers. But it’s brilliantly done. It’s produced, brilliantly. Its music, brilliant. Its acting, brilliant. Its cinematography, brilliant. All of it!” And he’s going to make his own version, apparently.
There aren’t enough LOLs in the world.
As we mentioned last week, after speaking out in support of same-sex marriage Carrie Underwood has come under fire from some fans and conservative Christians. My favorite slam has got to be this person on Twitter who said “@carrieunderwood Is a disgrace. Being vegan and supporting gay marriage doesn’t seem very country at all.” If you don’t eat meat and hate gays, you can’t be country! Come one! Everyone knows that!
But GLAAD wants Underwood to know there are still loads of fans on her side. They’ve launched a Twitter campaign with the hashtag #supportcarrie to, well, support Carrie.
Trish Bendix will be serving up your Brew again tomorrow morning. Have a beautiful Monday.
