[Friday Blingee on Tuesday. Sorry, gang! – kxm]

There's this Nickelodeon show iCarly, and it stars (an openly gay?) kiddo actor by the name of Reed Alexander. This kid is queer even if he's not queer, knowhati'msayin'? He was recntly on the Today Show with Hoda Kotb and Kathie Lee to cook up some healthy eats (video below). It was too good not to Blingee!

Reading a few posts about the segment is pretty discouraging, the homophobic rhetoric flows freely, but we say: Hey! Reed! Let your freak flag fly! And if that includes baking a healthy flatbread pizza con agave nectar, well then you GO!
