The Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD) has demanded an apology from "Today" critic Gene Shalit, for comments it describes as "defamatory, ignorant and irresponsible. " What set off the group's outrage was Shalit's review of Brokeback Mountain that aired on Thursday. In it, he described Jack (Jake Gyllenhaal) as a "sexual predator" who "tracks Ennis (Heath Ledger) down and coaxes him into sporadic trysts. " GLAAD charged Shalit Friday with promoting 'defamatory anti-gay prejudice to a national audience. '

Singer Pink and motocross race Carey Hart are now man and wife - after tying the knot in Costa Rica on Saturday. More than 100 guests (including Lisa-Marie Presley) attended the non-denominational ceremony, which was held on the beach during sunset at the Four Seasons resort and performed by a local officiant. Pink, whose real name is Alecia Moore, met Hart at the 2001 X Games in Las Vegas. They broke up for a time in 2003, but the split was well behind them last June, when the singer defied convention and popped the question to her beau as he sped around the track during a competition in Mammoth Lakes, California.
