Viva! MEN-xploitation!

An online friend introduced me to a gay commentary site for the reality TV show Project Runway and who doesn't like listening to bitchy queens commenting on each garment coming down that runway, really? (And no, I'm not talking about Nina or Michael Kors) I'm a huge fan of Project Runway and it looks like I'm gonna be a big fan of this site from now on. The site, peculiarly named Project RunGay, is run by two guys who happened to live in Philly. (Tom and Lorenzo) Other than commenting on garments, they seem to have access to casts and judges from the show; Doing interviews with them, "bumping" into past contestants at mood, attending parties and best of all digging up all the dirt relative to the show.

They have the scoop on one of the contestants in this season "Muscle Mary" Jack Mackenroth. Remember? The one who left the competition because of a staph infection on his face. (Would that be the flesh eating strand found in SF?) Turns out like any Marys, he does have quite a few nude pics online, seen here. And it also seems like he is in a relationship with another Bravo reality show contestant, Dale from Top Chef. They make a cute couple, I'm telling you interracial couples are SO yesterday, now it's all about the mixed HIV status. Jack turned out to be quite a bitchy queen though, bashing on the contestants during interviews. I'm telling you, they sound much nicer on TV.




Another show that I'm watching is "Make Me a Supermodel" hosted by Tyson Beckford. (Bravo is so gay, I love it!) They have 7 girls and 7 boys competing to be the ultimate supermodel. All the girls were kinda blah, except Jackie, a couple boys looks pretty hot, but it's what they have them do that's really interesting. The entry episodes they have them do a swimwear runway walk, so they are half naked. The first episode, they were told to wear their best clothes because they are going to a go-see and then end up surrounding a bonfire and burning their clothes to show how much they want it and the they end up half naked. A runway show of speedo swimwear and two of them have to wear thongs. Weekly measurements in their undies, body waxing of chest and butts, another swimwear runway shows. Tell me if that's not exploitation. And guys I'm not saying I don't like it... I love it!

The other interesting thing about the show is a cute openly gay guy Ronnie has a humongous crush on a married ex-prison guard named Ben. Ronnie made it known to the whole group and Ben flirts back! Ben's response to the whole thing is "I guess it's a compliment, right? Gay guys have high standards." Oh my god, I can just die!

Things also get interesting over at Oxygen's Janice Dickinson Modeling Agency. (Although I never watched that show.) Given she has been slapping her models around and being a bitch like always. There's J.P. Calderon one of the gay icons, good looking guy who came to fame on Survivor: Cook islands. But the big news is that one of her new hired model Rodrigo De Carli turns out to be a former gay porn star. Rodrigo has been starring in porn under the name of Claudio Martin under ChiChi LaRue's Channel 1 Productions. He has been in about 6 films and graced a cover himself. I love how gay porn stars are going mainstream.

I hope they have a Mr. USA pageant soon.
