If you miss it, I\u2019m sure it will be on the Internets soon.<\/p>\n<p>Take home news from the press stories:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The interview takes place in Chaz\u2019s LA home. <\/li>\n<li>Chaz has \u201csix-figure\u201d deal for a memoir called \u201cComing Clean\u201d \u2013 due in 2011. <\/li>\n<li>Long-time therapy helped him make the decision. <\/li>\n<li>Physical changes so far have included: lower voice, fat redistribution, hair growth, sex drive increase <\/li>\n<li>He\u2019s been able to start shaving and got shaving stuff for his birthday <\/li>\n<li>He can\u2019t speak for how his mom feels about it all but every one close to him has been supportive. Is that a workaround way of saying Cher is not supportive?<\/li>\n<li>Chaz talked to ET allegedly about getting his breasts removed but was uncomfortable talking about anything \u2018below the waist\u2019 and that that\u2019s a personal decision. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>But then all of this really is. Which brings up the debate between&#0160;what is&#0160;personal and what can be public. Granted it&#39;s hard to make that quick decision when you&#39;re nervous and being interviewed. <\/p>\n<p>But&#0160;this morning I was finding a hard time drawing the line between the two objectively. Everything I came up with seemed arbitrary and well\u2026personal to me. Should the line stop with anything I would feel uncomfortable hearing my Dad talk about? No? That\u2019s too loaded with parental discomfort. My brother? No, same issue. My guy friends? Well, every social circle has different boundaries. I feel perfectly comfortable talking about sex with anybody but you may not. How about shaving? How about surgery? It\u2019s all a bit blurry.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m always curious about Chaz&#39;s continuing vocation because he seems unsettled in that area and he\u2019s had such a patch-work history career-wize. From what I can tell, he\u2019s now working as a gay rights activist (and author) but I wonder if the book will be co-written again.<\/p>\n<p>Here are some news outlets for more info:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li id=\"\">Perez: <a href=\"http:\/\/perezhilton.com\/2009-10-27-chaz-bono-to-tell-all-this-week\">http:\/\/perezhilton.com\/2009-10-27-chaz-bono-to-tell-all-this-week<\/a><\/li>\n<li>OK Mag: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.okmagazine.com\/2009\/10\/chaz-bono-shares-his-gender-re-assignment-surgery-story\/\">http:\/\/www.okmagazine.com\/2009\/10\/chaz-bono-shares-his-gender-re-assignment-surgery-story\/<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Examiner: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.examiner.com\/x-27897-Toronto-Entertainment-News-Examiner~y2009m10d27-Chastity-Bono-to-talk-about-becoming-Chaz\">http:\/\/www.examiner.com\/x-27897-Toronto-Entertainment-News-Examiner~y2009m10d27-Chastity-Bono-to-talk-about-becoming-Chaz<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Huffington Post Blog: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.huffingtonpost.com\/2009\/10\/28\/chaz-bono-my-outsides-are_n_337647.html\">http:\/\/www.huffingtonpost.com\/2009\/10\/28\/chaz-bono-my-outsides-are_n_337647.html<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Pink News: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.pinknews.co.uk\/2009\/10\/28\/chers-son-chaz-bono-to-give-tv-interview\/\">http:\/\/www.pinknews.co.uk\/2009\/10\/28\/chers-son-chaz-bono-to-give-tv-interview\/<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Editorial from Associated Content: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.associatedcontent.com\/article\/2332914\/chaz_bono_picture_the_face_of_chastity.html?singlepage=true&amp;cat=9\">http:\/\/www.associatedcontent.com\/article\/2332914\/chaz_bono_picture_the_face_of_chastity.html?singlepage=true&amp;cat=9<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u2026and tomorrow on Entertainment Tonight for an exclusive interview.
