The 16th Annual Out 100

This list is meaningless because we're not on it.

Darlings, OUT Magazine has released its annual Out 100 list, running down the big movers and shakers among the gay elite. Plus Julianne Moore.

Out? Take it away:

"The theme of the 2010 Out 100 portfolio is “celebration.” In a year marked by battles won and lost, high hopes and bitter letdowns, we thought it important to focus on events that might not have been celebrations when they happened, but were pivotal in the evolution of the LGBT cause. So, we asked our honorees to recreate three such moments in recent history — Truman Capote’s Black and White Ball shot by legendary photographer Larry Fink, the Stonewall riots shot by Out 100 veteran Roger Erickson, and Studio 54 shot by Jason Schmidt."

Out is hosting its annual Out100 Party tonight in New York to celebrate the honorees. It's usually a pretty glittering affair with a lot of big names attending (including most of the ones on the list), sort of like the Gay Oscars (which we realize probably sounds a bit redundant). The BEST news of all? WE will be attending the party tonight! Seriously! The fine folks promoting Marc Jacobs' new cologne for men, Bang, asked us if we wanted to come and tweet, tweet, tweet to our hearts' content and we of course said yes. So check out our twitter tonight because we'll be tweeting and twitpic-ing as fast as our gay little fingers can manage it. It'll be like you're there! Except that, unlike us, you don't have to worry about what you're going to wear and the condition of your skin and hair.

We'll have a post up tomorrow with pics and our impressions from the party. Hopefully we'll get to see some A-Gays drunk.
