Jonathan Slavin plays a nerdy research scientist on the ABC television series Better Off Ted.

You may recall us telling you that one of the best know vegan lesbians, Portia de Rossi, stars on the show as well.

But Portia isn’t the only gay/lesbian on the set of Better Off Ted who leaves cheese off her pizza if the cast and crew are ordering in. Plus, Portia’s forced to make room for him at their home when he has pizza with Ellen.

“Ellen’s been amazingly supportive of the show, so we all got together and watched the premiere there,” Slavin told Advocate.com. “They have a beautiful home that’s first and foremost a home; it feels very comfortable. There was lots of vegan pizzas, and vegan this, vegan that. I never go to a dinner party where I can eat everything on the table, so I was thrilled.”

Slavin, who’s been working as an actor since the early 90s, has played roles in Andy Richter Controls the Universe, Caroline in the City, Wings, and My Name Is Earl.

Visit advocate.com to read what Slavin has to say about Hollywood and his sexuality and how Zac Effron and Jesse McCartney are not cute.

“Those are still little boys to me.”

Sounds like something straight from a Fear Factor episode.

Pop singer Jesse McCartney was visiting Asia recently when he decided to fully immerse himself in the culture, trying one of the local delicacies of monkey brain.

Apparently, it wasn’t  the best meal he’d had. It was missing a little bit of salt and pepper.

“It was a little chewy and a little bland,” McCartney said. “It could have been seasoned a little bit more to tell you the truth.”

The only “icious” way to describe that meal would be “gagalicious.” We’re sorry if you’re reading this while eating lunch at your desk.

When PETA found about about Jesse monkeying around, Spokesman Michael McGraw said in a statement, “You’d have to be bananas to eat monkey flesh, or any meat. When it comes to the ability to feel pain and suffer, a monkey is no different from chickens, cows and pigs. All animals deserve respect, which is why PETA promotes a vegetarian diet.”
