postMadonna.com: Pop culture, with heart.

Stripping for survival.

Model Miranda Kerr is taking it all off and chaining herself to a tree to save the koala's diminishing habitat in her native Australia. Orlando Bloom's striking girlfriend will appear in the buff on the cover of the Australian Rolling Stone magazine in an effort to raise awareness regarding the cuddly creature's plight. Says Kerr:

"I feel strongly about the need to protect our natural environment because it supports our life - it really is that simple. It's a sad thing - there are only about 100,000 koalas left in Australia. Something like 80 per cent of the koalas' habitat has been destroyed since Europeans arrived in Australia."

Compassion for animals is always fierce. Way to go, Miranda.

Biker bravado.

The recently resurrected and insanely talented Mickey Rourke won the Guy of the Year award last night at Spike TV's 2009 "Guys Choice Awards." Never one to follow the dictates of fashion, the eccentric actor accepted his trophy wearing a tribute to the gay leather and denim scene.

Don't ever change, Mickey. You always keep things interesting.

Congrats.

Backless beauty.

Yummy mummy Halle Berry shows off her still perfect body in one of the fiercest little black dresses known to man at the Spike TV's 2009 ''Guys Choice Awards'' last night. Thankfully, the classic cropped Halle Berry hairdo has reappeared as well.

MILFalicious!

Grown man.

The teen sensation who grew up to be a successful songwriter and performer, Jesse McCartney, looks fierce in color coordinated sneakers and T-shirt last night.

Adulthood looks very good on him.

Her Madgesty digs the prince.

The Material Mom looks chic in a fedora and designer blouse as her and David watch Prince Harry strut his stuff on the field at the 2nd Annual Veuve Clicquot Manhattan Polo Classic.

Way too much royalty in one place.

Leave Adam alone.

An opinion piece published on the Net yesterday calling American Idol's dark prince a "big ol' homo from Fruitington Corners" accuses the singer of hurting gay America by not being more forthcoming about his sexual orientation. While I find the article to be mean-spirited and catty at times, I understand the author's frustration. When I was growing up, Elton John was the only openly gay role model I had to look up to. While there are more un-closeted celebrities today, GLBT youth still have very few people in the public eye telling them it's okay to be who they are.

This leaves one to wonder if a young man thrust into the spotlight, literally overnight, has the obligation to make his private life public for the greater good. As with my soulmate Jonathan Knight, I believe that Adam Lambert has the right to privacy; he can choose to reveal his sexual identity when he feels comfortable doing so. One can only image what a whirlwind his life is right now. Let's cut him some effing slack.

What do you think?

Daddy dearest.

DILFalicious Hugh Jackman gives a shout out to family men everywhere as he takes his hotness to the streets of NYC once again. The devoted dad strolls in the sunshine this morning with wife Deborra-Lee Furness and their kids Oscar and Ava (above).

Meanwhile, paps snapped this tender moment between father and daughter yesterday (below). Just precious. I thought I couldn't love this man any more, but I was wrong.

Family values are sexy.

Love conquers all.

The recently reunited Pink and Carey Hart share a smooch at the Hart And Huntington Freestyle Tour in Melbourne yesterday.

Although I'm happy they've found their way back to each other, I'd still like to come between them.

They call it punky love.

Faux punk princess Avril Lavigne holds on to deliciously dirty husband Deryck Whibley for dear life as they exit a Hollywood hotspot last night.

And they said it wouldn't last.

Rough trade.

The scruffilicious Billie Joe Armstrong and Tre Cool from Green Day thug it up at the MTV Video Music Awards Japan 2009. These boys clean up nicely.

I don't know if I want them to punch me or kiss me.
