...applied to '80s rock shirts this fashion season, they cut, slashed, fringed and studded campaign shirts for that oh-so-now glam-T look. Price: $25.

But Bush spokesman Tucker Eskew apparently doesn't think the hipster bloc is in play, telling a show-biz magazine, "We do not plan a coalition of Cross-Dressing Glam Rockers for Bush anytime soon...

...month after the much chronicled breakup of Ellen DeGeneres and Anne Heche, Hollywood's other high-profile lesbian couple announced they too are moving to Splitsville. Director JULIE CYPHER and singer MELISSA ETHERIDGE, whose family pictures made the cover of Rolling Stone in January, when they revealed rocker David Crosby had fathered their two children, are ending the 12-year relationship amicably. The pair, seen dancing together last week at a White House dinner, have purchased adjacent homes in L.A., where they will share custody of their kids. The tabloids are speculating on whether or not Cypher and Heche, both...
