And the Gayest is…
The other night when Suzan and I were watching Queer Eye for the Straight Guy, we ranked the Fab 5 from least gay to most gay. They are…
Least Gay #1: Ted Allen (Food): The guy has horned-rim glass, a clipped, unflappable demeanor and works in food. In my mind that puts him only a few degrees of seperation from Anthony Bourdain. Plus he’s from Chicago. Name me one famous gay person from Chicago.
#2 Thom Felicia (Interior Design). Yes, he works in interior design but he’s also clearly Italian and wields a hammer. A mixed bag, with shades of straight.
#3 Kyan Douglas (Grooming). A dead heat. Kyan is the most overtly masculine in appearance of all the dudes (My friend Willo put a fine point on it) with that needle chin and steely gaze. But the guy does tend nose hair for a living and have several jobs called “colorist” on his resume. Too close to call.
#4 Jai Rodriguez (Culture). On the leyward side of nellie and is a male working in etiquette. Would take the crown if not for…
#5 Carson Kressley who makes Harvey Fierstein look like DMX.
