We just love a girl who isn’t so all about boys that she just settles for meh in the relationship department.

This week, we salute Leighton Meester for practicing self-respect and not settling in Marie Claire’s April issue:

“I never had a boyfriend until I was 18. It’s nice, I guess – when you like them. But it isn’t the most important thing. I’m not sure I ever want to get married. The only time a relationship is good is when you really love them. I don’t want to hang out with some guy I just like.”

So we’ve all heard tons about Tracy Morgan’s homophobic rant in Nashville June 3 where he talked about stabbing people and other beyond-lame stuff that I don’t even want to reprint here. Yuck. Good thing our girl Tina Fey spoke up on the issue. Her statement included this perspective-setting gem:

I hope for his sake that Tracy’s apology will be accepted as sincere by his gay and lesbian coworkers at “30 Rock,” without whom Tracy would not have lines to say, clothes to wear, sets to stand on, scene partners to act with, or a printed-out paycheck from accounting to put in his pocket.

That’s RIGHT, Tina Fey! Were so glad she spoke out and did so so fittingly.
