As reported by our pals at Rakontur (Cocaine Cowboys, Clubland), a documentary premiering tomorrow night at the Tribeca Film Festival officially outs our very own governor, Charlie Crist. The movie, "Outrage," profiles recently outed politicos including former New Jersey governor Jim McGreevey and bathroom tap dancer Senator Larry Craig, but for those who have long debated the heterosexuality of Gov. Crist, this movie drops a major bombshell and director Kirby Dick has no regrets, telling indieWIRE "I think that if someone is in the clsoet and voting against gay rights then that's hypocrisy and that's cause for outing."

Celebs playing for pay in Miami Beach on New Year's
Celebs work hard on New Year's' Eve. Just ask Lindsay Lohan after she "hosts" Mansion. We're sure she will be exhausted afterwards. It's a rough, rough life. Anyway, over at the Fontainebleau on December 31, Maroon Five frontman and self professed man whore Adam Levine will perform live poolside. Tickets for that party are $225 and include open bar and what seems to now be a ubiquitous New Year's party schitck--fireworks. Over at LIV at the Fontainebleau, Diddy will host while those who pay the $300 general admission fee will get to sip on, you guessed it, Ciroc vodka martinis garnished with 24 karat gold edible shavings. You may want to scrape those up and cash it in at a pawn shop afterwards to recoup your investment. Tickets are available at www.newyears.com
Over at the Gansevoort South, actress Chloe Sevigny hosts, with TI performing. Strange bedfellows indeed. In addition, Wilhelmina models have been hired to mingle with theaverage folks who will cough up the $225 general admission price which includes open bar from 9 p.m. until 4 a.m. as well as mini burgers from the yet-to-open STK. Dress code: "Miami Vice Chic." For tickets, call 305-604-6575.
