Margaret Cho needs little introduction. So instead, Cho will be doing plenty of other folks' introductions as host of the HRC's True Colors concert tour, which will be playing at SDSU's Open Air Theatre on June 27. "I love all the acts," she shares, which includes Cyndi Lauper, Erasure, Debbie Harry, The Dresden Dolls, Rufus Wainwright, Indigo Girls, and The Gossip. "That's what is so great about the tour, I get to see the show and it's a show that I would go to and watch because everybody is so awesome. It's going to be great."

BUZZ: Do you read the Perez Hilton blog?

MC: Yes.

BUZZ: Today he says that Kevin Spacey is slowly inching out of the closet. How do you feel about that?

MC: That's cute! How is he inching out?

BUZZ: He told Gotham magazine, "I'm living my life how I choose, in no way am I hiding or am I terrified. I'm having the time of my life living my life."

MC: Good! What if he was straight, though? Wouldn't that be wild? It's like Olivia Newton John--for years everybody was talking about how she was a lesbian, and then I met her and she was so hetero. It was the headband she wore all through the '80s that made people think she liked women.
