The GLAAD Media Awards took place on April 17, 2010 in Los Angeles, California with streaming video on the official GLAAD website. GLAAD posted updates via their official Twitter account throughout the ceremony for anyone not able to attend or watch in "real" time.
There was no shortage of entertainment as the 21st Annual GLAAD Media Awards got underway at the Hyatt Regency Century Plaza. The celeb-flooded red carpet coverage included: Drew Barrymore, Chaz Bono, Nicole Paone, "The Real L Word" cast, "Grey Gardens" star Michael Sucsy, Elke Kennedy, Constance McMillen, Rebecca Gayheart, Eric Dane, RuPaul, Adam Lambert, Jane Lynch, Wanda Sykes and other notable media personalities.
Inside the auditorium, Drew Barrymore received a standing ovation for her work while being honored with the Vanguard Award. She stated, "I'm humbled to be a member of the gay and lesbian community". Elke Kennedy also received a standing ovation. The cast of "Glee" was honored and Jane Lynch helped accept the award. Chaz Bono took the stage to what appeared to be an accepting and honored crowd. Constance McMillen presented the Stephen F. Kolpzak Award to Wanda Sykes following Tom Ford's "A Single Man" win in the Outstanding Film Wide Release category. "American Idol" runner-up Adam Lambert performed and fans were not left disappointed! Overall, it was a fantastic evening to be gay. As my hero Bette Midler would say - the GLAAD Media Awards were FABULOUS!
