In Lance’s interview he talks about the usual things going on in his life, including his stint on Dancing with the Stars, his distaste for the idea of forcibly outing people and his work to oppose Proposition 8 here in California. Then the subject turns to his “boyfriend” Sebastian Leal to which Lance replies, “Well, I don’t have a boyfriend.” He goes on to say, “You get seen with one person and that’s automatically your boyfriend.” It seemed pretty clear to me that, at the very least, Lance was involved with Mr. Leal for a good portion of this summer so it is a bit of a bummer to know that they are no longer together. I suspect that Lance is shying away from any attachment labels either to try and minimize the conversation about his private life or to keep his options open (or both). In any event, I suspect we’ll be seeing much less of Leal from here on out. I suppose it won’t be long until we see Lance cuddling up to some other guy who may be “automatically” assumed to be his boyfriend. If his record holds, Lance doesn’t tend to stay unattached for long.

Now, as best as I can tell … Lance hosted a private party called the Beerjing Olympics and installed a Polite In Public photobooth so that his guests could take fun photos and, apparently, see them online. Looks like Mission: Accomplished. The event, the site says, took place on 08.08.08 (the same day that the Beijing Olympic Games took place) and looks like it was a lot of fun. Again, it’s hard to tell who the guy kissing on Lance’s cheek is but, as I said, I’m gonna assume it’s his latest boy toy Sebastian Leal.

First off, much props and love goes out to Lance for his continued involvement with the Gay, Lesbian, Straight Education Network. They provide such an important service for schools across the country. I worked with them extensively when I was a teacher back in Michigan and they were integral in helping us get our Gay, Straight Alliance club off the ground in a very conservative community. Props also go out to Lance’s friends for coming out in support of this event. I love that Lance brought along Sebastian to attend the soiree as well … things must be pretty serious if he’s bringing the guy along as his date to public events (tho, I could do without the macho posturing in the first pic of the LaBastian). I absolutely and fully support Lance in all of his GLSEN endeavors and it is my pleasure to help spread the word.

Additionally, LaBastian were spotted in Provincetown, MA over the 4th of July holiday and were spied cuddling it up with one another. Woot! I’m happy to know that Lance has managed to score himself another hunk of a man so quickly after his break-up with Ben Thigpen (tho, the two have remained friends … Lance was partying at Tenjune with both his new dude Sebastian and his ex-dude Ben). I hope we get to see more of Lance and Sebastian … they make a handsome couple, don’t you think?

UPDATE: Pink reader Mike from Boston sends in another pic of Lance and Sebastian together … this pic was taken at the Crown and Anchor nightclub in Provincetown, MA and comes by way of THIS site:

Cute!
