Saturday night at the GLAAD Media Awards a parade of stars and supporters that included Milla Jovovich, John Leguizamo, and Bernadette Peters honored the year's most influential and positive portrayals of LGBT people and issues. Even the queen bee of gay icons, Madonna, was in attendance, presenting a newly out Anderson Cooper with the prestigious Vito Russo Award while wearing a boy scout uniform accessorized with her signature leather motorcycle gloves and a pair of leather combat boots. Her look, she said, was inspired by the controversial policy the Boy Scouts of America has in regards to banning gay scout leaders. Madonna aside, one of the evening's major highlights was an awesome cover of College's "A Real Hero" by Scissor Scissors' frontman Jake Shears. The song, which was featured prominently in 2011's Drive, featured an added verse written by Shears and dedicated to the silver fox himself. Check out the performance above.
