We have a lesbian legend in our presence: none other than Tammy Lynn Michaels. You Might Know Her From Popular, The L Word, Committed, D.E.B.S., That ‘80s Show, and Dolly Parton’s Heartstrings. Tammy Lynn opened up to us about being a closeted actor on Ryan Murphy’s Popular, publicly coming out during her relationship with Melissa Etheridge, and appearing in our “fave show” The L Word. Tammy also indulged us by checking out our V.I.P. chart and talked to us about coming out of retirement for Dolly Parton. Babies, come for the biz talk and stay for the Tom and Katie story.
