—Vince Vaughn’s “Dilemma”: Sir Elton John is among those criticizing a gay joke in the upcoming Vince Vaughn comedy The Dilemma, according to Wooeb.com. John—who praised CNN anchor Anderson Cooper for bringing awareness to the “Electric cars are gay” line in the film—told US Magazine, “Enough already! I hate bigotry. I hate racial hatred. I hate sexual hatred.” Of Cooper, John said, “”His heart is in exactly the right place—same as mine. He thinks the way I do. He’s intelligent, and he’s on the side of what we’re on.” Reportedly, Vaughn wanted the joke to stay in the film, saying that the line should not be a casualty of censorship—and he got his wish.

—Driving for Thanksgiving a go: More drivers than ever were expected to hit the road for the Thanksgiving holiday, according to the Chicago Tribune. Ninety-four percent of Thanksgiving travelers are expected to drive—an 8-percent increase from two years, and a 14-percent climb from 2000. Consequently, only 3.8 percent of travelers are expected to fly—the lowest number in a decade. Experts cite the public controversy over airport security as well as additional fees for the drop in airline passengers.
