The feature film Pariah and ABC's Dancing with the Stars were awarded
with Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation awards on Saturday
night in New York.
Smash producers Craig Zadan & Neil Meron received the prestigious Vito
Russo Award, presented to them by Bernadette Peters and John Stamos.
Hollywood mogul Harvey Weinstein honored openly gay 17-year-old
anti-bullying advocate, Katy Butler, who has been lobbying the Motion
Picture Association of America to lower the rating for the documentary
Bully, so younger people may view it. Dee Rees's coming-of-age feature
Pariah, starring Adepero Oduye and Kim Wayans, won outstanding feature
film while Dancing With The Stars won outstanding reality television
program. The Advocate and Out also shared a win for outstanding
overall magazine coverage. The event was hosted by Glee's Cory
