Gayest Thing, Ever...
OK, there are a lot of competitors for the winners of this post's title:
- Anything ever uttered by Carson Kressley (or Jim J. Bullock, depending on your generation)
- This tattoo (warning: not to be viewed at work or in front of children...)
- Getting a group together to dress as the Village People for Halloween
- Johnny Weir, ice skating to Lady Gaga's Poker Face
- Brokeback Mountain, the Opera
- The opening/closing to ANY Eurovision competition
- The PBS broadcasts of America's Ballroom Challenge, hosted by Ron Montez and his bevy of beauties, alternately: Sandy Duncan, Juliet Prowse, and Rita Moreno
- This colorguard costume
- Neil Patrick Harris, hosting the 2009 Tony Awards
- Margaret Cho performing at Gay Pride in San Francisco
- This post
But, this is one of my first memories of such utter, fabulous gayness that I feel I must share it with you now...
Once again, for Music Monday, we return to Queen, and the inimitable, late Freddie Mercury:
For something equally sensational and marvelous, please watch this video of Freddie performing with the magnificent Monserrat Caballe at the Barcelona Olympics. I nearly peed myself when I was watching the coverage of the games (I was 20)...later I owned this CD.
Now that I think about it, this video/song may win: (Freddie Mercury + Monserrat Caballe) x Summer Olympics Theme Song = Way Gay.

ha ha. and wow. chills on barcelona.
Great videos... I really miss Freddie Mercury. Sigh.
PM - so dated, and yet so fabulous. And Barcelona always gets to me...I know it's kind of cheesy, but stunning all at the same time. After Freddie passed away, Monserrate continued to perform that song, with his part projected on a screen, like Natalie Cole doing "Unforgettable". Makes me bawl every time.
Jen - Freddie was a master of the stage - the voice, the presence...such a loss, to die so young. *sigh*
