India's Gay Prince

It's still illegal in India for consenting adults of the same gender to have sex, so news that a prince has come out is a headline-making scandal, with his mother disowning him and threatening to sue anyone who refers to him as their son. The LATimes has the story, complete with his childhood romance with an orphaned servant boy and handing out condoms on street corners for HIV prevention while still closeted. I see a Bollywood musical here, don't you?
