    Did Harry Styles come out as bisexual?

    People are questioning whether Harry Styles has used a song to officially come out as bisexual and appeared on stage at his Parisian concert, with the rainbow pride flag.

    This isn’t the first time Harry Styles has talked about his sexuality, however. A few years ago he told a reporter during an interview, that gender wasn’t an important factor for him when looking for a mate. He said that a sense of humour and being natural was key for him.

    Is it all in the lyrics?

    Now, lyrics from a new song, “Medicine”,  have gotten people asking: is Harry Styles finally, definitely, officially coming out as bisexual?

    When he first sang the song, he fumbled and mumbled the cryptic lines, however at a recent concert, Harry sang them loud and proud.

    In the song, Harry sings: “…The boys and the girls are here, I mess around with them, and I’m okay with it. I’m coming down, I figured out I kinda like it, and when I sleep i’m gonna dream of how you tasted…”

    Flying the flag

    He also appeared on stage with the iconic LGBT symbol – the rainbow flag.

    Many are calling the song a new Bi Anthem!

    Looking star, Russell Tovey admitted that he “panicked” when he first starting having sex, because he felt he wasn’t old enough. Speaking to the Guardian, he revealed, that he always felt that “everything was happening a bit too quickly” and that included his sex life.

    He said, “I’ve always been someone who feels like they need to catch up or pretend to be ready for these things, but in my head I’m not, I’m thinking: ‘Get out of the car and stop having sex!’ Now I feel like I can legit do sex and do driving – I’ve caught up with it. I’m finally ready at 36.”

    He also revealed that he’s a bit of natural worrier, which he gets from his mum, revealing “I’m definitely a worrier, I get it from my mum. She has always gone from zero to panic in seconds. I’ll be flapping about and Steve, my fiancé, will say, ‘Chill out, give it 10 minutes.’ I can’t be with someone who is like me; I need a calming influence in a partner. I couldn’t be with another performer – I can’t have that anxiety.”

  • Elon Musk just casually turned up on a posing site popular with gay guys

    One of the world’s richest men just posted a picture a site that’s uber-popular with guys who like to show a bit of skin.

    However, it has to be said that Elon has kept his look for the site – classy – and suited. The 46-year-old serial entrepreneur seemingly uploaded a picture onto the GuysWithiPhones.com, a site that usually has a fair bit of flesh on show.

    Other celebrities, such as Justin Bieber, Lewis Hamilton and Cameron Dallas have all graced the pages of GWIP with their photos.

    Elon is currently, we believe, single at the moment, so we were wondering whether he uploaded the picture to get some tips or pointers on how to take the perfect picture for a dating profile.

    Well, Elon, you’re looking fine!

    Elon, who, hasn’t identified as bisexual or gay in the past, split up with his last girlfriend, Amber Heard in 2016 due to their “conflicting schedules”.

  • Can Jeremy Kyle save X Factor’s Bratavio?

    Can Jeremy Kyle save X Factor’s Bratavio?

    They became overnight sensations when Louis Walsh gave them a chance to shine on ITV… but it’s all gone south since.

    Following on from an epic fallout last year, when the pair (Bradley Hunt and Ottavio Columbo) went their own ways and released their own singles, it seems that the duo is willing to give their X Factor band, Bratavio, one more try.

    Bradley released “Side Dish” and Ottavio released “I Don’t Wanna Be Us”.

    When Bradley released his song, he insisted at the time, the dis song, wasn’t about his ex-bandmate despite the song containing the lyrics, “can you stop stabbing me in the back, with that fork” and feeding a picture of Ottavio into a shredder. The relationship between the two soured with Bradley calling it “the worst fall out to date”.

    Happier times. Ottavio and Bradley strip off for an impromptu photoshoot.

     

    A breakdown in communication.

    The pair will appear on tomorrow’s Jeremy Kyle show and he’ll try and sort their issues once and for all. The pair, who have come to loggerheads are hoping that Jeremy Kyle will be able to sort out their issues and help the band reform.

    Speaking to THEGAYUK.com Bradley Hunt, explained why they chose Jeremy Kyle to air their grievances,

    “Well it was at a point of no return but as we are used to TV it seemed right to do it in front of cameras and a professional like Jeremy and the team!

    “As we have a tricky unlikely friendship and have been through the most unique of events together!

    “So an audience and Jeremy was the perfect setting to get our points across,

    “This was the worst fall out to date and not petty this time. Maybe the viewers will see a different more mature side to us”.

  • Dustin Lance Black and Tom Daley have revealed the sex of their baby

    New dads to be, Tom and Dustin have revealed the sex of their unborn child.

    It seems the gay power couple Tom and Dustin are about to have a bouncy baby boy on their hands after they revealed that they’ve found out what the sex of their unborn child is during the ultrasound.

    They revealed the news during Fearne Cotton’s Happy Place podcast.

    Dustin Lance Black told podcast listeners, “You find out at the scan. They zoom in on every little body part!”

    After the ultrasound, Tom said, “I had no idea what to expect going into that scan. I remember feeling quite nervous but excited about what was going to happen. The baby was moving. Just to see your child move and know there’s going to be a screaming, crying, sleeping, pooping machine!”

    Who’s the daddy?

    The duo also revealed that neither of them knows who the biological father is. Tom explained, “I know there’s been one question that lots of people have asking about, about who the biological father is,”

    “That’s something we’ve been very adamant about not knowing, or not ever wanting to know because they are our children.”

    Addressing some of the criticism they received about their decision not reveal who the surrogate mother was, during their initial announcement, Tom said,

    “Once the child is born, it’s up to the parents how much or how little the surrogate stays involved, but for us, we love her so much that I can’t imagine not ever seeing her again because we want her to be part the journey of the kids growing up too.”

    Congrats guys… When’s the baby shower?

    In the latest episode of THEGAYUK podcast, Celebrity Big Brother star, Austin Armacost spills the beans on why Victoria Beckham apparently always looks so miserable in pap photos.

    Apparently, Victoria herself told Austin while he and Marc Jacobs (they were once boyfriends many many moons ago) were at dinner with the former Spice Girl turned fashion empire owner one evening when she revealed that she “never planned on becoming that famous” and the very savvy reason why she never smiles in photos anymore.

    She went on to admit, “I don’t want people to know my business, I don’t want my business out there, It’s not their place to know.

    “Everytime you photograph me, I’m not going to be laughing and I’m not going to be crying, I’m going to be nowhere in the middle, I’m not going to make a face”.

    According to Austin, everytime Victoria showed any emotion before her decision to tone down her facial expression, magazines and the press would continuously speculate on her happiness, her marriage or any aspect of her life. The only way to stop the speculation was to “keep neutral”.

  • Katie Hopkins thinks the slaughter of whites is coming to Europe

    In a tweet, Katie Hopkins has declared that she believes there will be an uprising against white people in Western Europe.

    Katie Hopkins, who once described a wish to become a “gay icon” has declared that a white genocide is on its way to Western Europe and that white people will have to live in gated communties and behind walls. And she believes it will happen in “our lifetimes”.

    The controversial, former columnist for The Sun and the Daily Mail, failed TV talk show host, non-winning Apprentice contestant, former radio presenter for LBC has recently travelled to South Africa to record and document attacks and murders of white South African farmers for Rebel Media – a far-right media organisation.

    Using South Africa as an example, she wrote “The slaughter of minority whites in South Africa will be repeated in Western Europe. In OUR lifetime, whites will be forced behind walls, in gated communities in the countries we used to call home”

    She finished her tweet with the hashtags: #MinorityWhiteRights and #MAGA (which stands for Make America Great Again – despite Katie Hopkins living in the UK a country, which is not America, and where white people are not in the minority.

    Currently in South Africa the white demographic equals about eight percent of the population. In the UK the non-white population counts for around 14 percent of the population, in France it is estimated to be around 22 percent (2009) and in Germany, it is estimated that the Germany-Afro community stands at 2 percent of the population.

    The tweet was met with mixed reaction. Whilst some agreed with her premise, many responders were quick to slate Hopkins’ suggestion, giving Ms Hopkins a brief history lesson.

    Others decided to take her tweet a bit more seriously,

     

    In January Hopkins asked her followers the following question, “Why is there no heterosexual community? Or white community? Do you need to feel like a victim to belong? #transcommunity #lgbtcommunity #blackcommunity”.
