We're going to start off with a tear jerker, with A Letter To My Future Son, From a Future Gay Father. I'll wait while you get a tissue, because this is the greatest thing you'll read today.
Somehow, this turned into a Tom Cruise-heavy Meme. First up, we have Mia Michaels talking about helping Tom Cruise master his moves for Rock of Ages. "My hands were all over him at all times, but when you're working, you don't think about that. My hands were inside his pants at one point, pulling him, pulling his pubes, and it was just part of the choreography. It was just very funny, because when you're in the dance, it doesn't matter. It's about if it's right, and if it is, let's go with it."
Next, we have the news that Tom Cruise insisted on authenticity and had as*less chaps for the shoot.

Disney star and former "Hellcats" actress Ashley Tisdale has split with her boyfriend of two years, Scott Speer. Speer, a music video director, directed three of Tisdale's videos from her DVD "Something About Ashley."
The videos -- for "He Said She Said," "Not Like That," and "Suddenly" -- were filmed in 2007, when Tisdale was still dating former love Jared Murillo. She and Speer didn't get together until 2009.
"He's a really hot, good friend of mine," Tisdale told E! News when the couple first hooked up. "We have a really good, creative relationship."

On the Top 11's first competitive show -- and "So You Think You Can Dance's" first ever live performance show -- Wednesday (June 16) night, penultimate dancer Ashley Galvan brought the show to a stop with a surprisingly sweet and sincere admission.
Kicking off the critique of her contemporary number with Season 3 All-Star partner Neil Haskell, judge Nigel Lythgoe asked 19-year-old Galvan "Have you ever been in love before?" and she responded with an emotional and halting, "As a matter of fact, I think I am."
Awwww.
After the show, Galvan revealed the identity of her love: boyfriend of little over a year, 21-year-old ballroom dancer Jared Murillo.
If that name rings a bell, then chances are you're a "High School Musical" -- or boy band V Factory -- fan, as he's appeared in all three "HSM" movies. He also famously dated another Ashley, Ashley Tisdale, for two years.

Everywhere he goes, frenzied crowds of girls scream Zac Efron's name. But Ashley Tisdale isn't one of them. "I've never looked at Zac that way because he's always been like a younger brother to me," the 23-year-old High School Musical star tells Britain's Daily Mail. "Girls go crazy over him, but I've just never been attracted to him in that way." The problem? "I'm three years older than him," she says. "That makes a major difference when you are young."
