It is telling that Santa Claus and his community of elves have always been a male only club in American folklore until but recently. The invention of purely fictitious female characters doesn't change the reality of the real Santa Claus, though. I have been invited to take a view of what is going on behind the scene at the residence of the most famous person of today.
Buckingham Palace was facing a dilemma. How does One attach a medal to a naked cricket player? The Queen doesn't hold the necessary university degree to do nipple piercings, a Palace insider told me. In the end, Alastair Cook decided to appear dressed to the honors ceremony to receive his MBE. Some of the spectators were disappointed by that, I'm sure.
Strictly Come Dancing has been a favorite to watch with the gay community for a long time running. The addition of Harry Judd to this year's contest has peaked any previous adulation for it, though. Harry Judd? Maybe I should say the drummer of McFly to jog your memory. If you saw McFly in years past, you would remember him as the runt of the litter, but an excellent drummer. He has matured into a most delicious hunk showing all the right moves.
Swedish professional soccer player Anton Hysén has declared himself to be gay in March this year. The news was met with varying degrees of shocked incredulity. Media all over Europe made a pilgrimage to Sweden to interview him. Organizations of all kinds and denominations tagged the hero label to his (admittedly very attractive) person. The only thing I find incredible about this story is that it was worth mentioning at all not to say the vast media interest. It just goes to show that soccer has a long way to go to get free of all kinds of prejudice.
When writing a blog about pretty boys, the Twilight saga has to be part of the deal. There are just too many shirtless teens running around in various sequences to ignore it. And I heard that some girls like it, too. But that might be only rumor. After all, cute boys usually are gay or bisexual, the heterosexual kind is called good looking.
It's that time of the year again. Not as good as Wimbledon, the ATP Masters Final is still worth watching. And it is well worth watching for tennis, too. This year, Novak Djokovic, Rafael Nadal, Andy Murray, Roger Federer, David Ferrer, Jo-Wilfried Tsonga, Tomas Berdych, and Mardy Fish are having it out in the O2-Arena. With so much talent, tennis should be of the finest.
The question whether Tom Daley is gay or not has been asked (and not answered) so many times, it is becoming a running joke. There is a simple principle at work in that. The people who ask don't need to know. People who answer the question one way or another don't know. And the people who know don't answer the question. And this, in my opinion, is as it should be.
A modelling career may be the dream of many a beautiful teen boy. If you think it is easy money, then you should first read the interview with Andrei Ries in absoluttomag in Portuguese. In it, the Brazilian actor and model was quite candid about how much work went into his career. He also stressed the deprivations of being apart from family and friends for long periods of time. If you are not prepared to work hard, to put up with being alone, and to live out of your suitcase, then look for something else to do.
Not hard to guess what I am writing about. It is much harder to guess what the boys of One Direction mean by the band name. But even if they are all different candy types, I wouldn't mind them all coming in my direction.
Twitter is so easy to use, I don't have to explain it, do I? And it is full of pretty boys posting their pictures, very tasty pictures at that. There are treats in store for you if you missed out on that until now. Care for an example? Have a look at that pretty twit!
The title of this post reflects what I thought when I read the title of an article that swam up from the depth of the Internet. It was called Stable Gay Relationship: Michael Phelps and Daley Thompson. I went for it; I fell for it. It was not what I had expected at all. I had a good laugh; and the title was no lie either. Read it and you'll see what I mean. Tom Daley is part of the plot. And the content of the article can be verified. I went there and checked it.
As I said in the title of my blog, I write this blog for my own amusement. If it amuses you, too, then so much the better. If it doesn't amuse you, then just ignore it.
