AfterElton.com’s Top 50 Gay Characters of All Time!

5. Scotty (Brothers & Sisters)

Previous rank: 19

Played by actor Luke Macfarlane (2006 - present)

Let’s face it: playing the spouse to one of the Walker’s screwed-up family members on Brothers & Sisters is a thankless role. You get a couple of scenes per episode, at most. So what is it about Luke Macfarlane’s portrayal of Scotty Wandell that has caught the attention of so many AfterElton.com readers? There’s something about Scotty’s quiet grace that is both infectious and truly touching – especially in the face of Kevin’s non-stop neurosis. It probably doesn’t hurt Macfarlane is drop-dead gorgeous.

Jessica Alba, Victoria Beckham, Anne Hathaway (Plus Inflatible Sheep) Party with 'Brothers and Sisters'
By Bryan Alexander Posted Mar 1st 2010 07:41PM

How do you know when a party is a hit? When Jessica Alba, Victoria Beckham and Anne Hathaway are partying with the 'Brothers and Sisters' cast (along with one mysterious inflatable sheep) until closing time.

Such was the case at Matthew Rhys' St. David's Day party on Saturday at LA's trendy Palihouse Hotel. Things were going so strong that 'The Office's' Rashida Jones brought friends such as Alba from her birthday party in another section of the hotel to join in late at night.

"It was pretty crowded especially when Rashida and Jessica merged their birthday party at midnight," one guest tells PopEater. "It never really slowed down."

Victoria Beckham (without David) and Anne Hathaway circulated around the party, which featured a public outing of newly-engaged Dave Annabel and fiance Odette Yustman. The two happily relaxed with Annabel's co-stars, including his ex Emily VanCamp. "They were all hanging out at a for a while," says the guest. "Everyone looked pretty relaxed and happy."

Rhys's party, sponsored by Bavaria Beer and Belvedere Vodka, celebrated the annual holiday for St. David, the patron saint of Wales, part of the United Kingdom. The proud Welshman concocted an intricate menu of Welsh-themed drinks such as the "The Green, Green Grass of Home" (Belvedere with basil, fresh pineapple and a dash of syrup).

"This is his annual party even if most Americans don't know what the day is all about," say the guest. "They still managed to enjoy the cocktails."

The party featured many 'Brothers and Sisters' cast members, including Rachel Griffiths and Luke Macfarlane, British stars such as Stephen Fry and a good percentage of the Welsh stars in Hollywood (um...Rhys). It also featured an inflatable Welsh sheep.

"In true Welsh tradition, the partiers stayed to the bitter end and the Palihouse closed," says our participant. "The sheep went home with someone, I don't know who."
