  • DANYL JOHNSON: I didn’t tell Dannii Minogue to F*** off

    In an exclusive interview former X Factor star Danyl Johnson has told THEGAYUK.com that he didn’t tell Dannii Minogue to F*** OFF when she seemingly outed him on national TV.

    Cast your minds back to 2009 when a former primary school teacher, Danyl Johnson, was rising to fame on the ITV hit show, X Factor. Speculation over his sexuality became the talk of the nation.

    During his rendition of the Dreamgirls hit, “And I Am Telling You” Danyl didn’t change the gender pronouns so he sang it about a woman, instead of a man. At the time the UK’s newspapers were in speculation overdrive about Danyl’s sexuality. At the time it was being reported that he was bisexual.

    Having spoken about changing the line to a male pronoun with the production team, Danyl had last minute thoughts, he said,

    “In my mind, I was thinking if it was week seven, maybe, but as it was week one, so I sang, ‘You’re the best girl I’ve ever known’. People are very open-minded these days, but it’s live in front of a lot of people.”

    In the end, he changed it to an opposite sex attraction.

    Dannii Minogue, who was passing comment on his performance questioned why he used an opposite sex pronoun saying,

    “If we’re to believe everything that we read in the papers, maybe you didn’t need to change the gender references”.

     

    Well in the footage, Danyl can be seen muttering something and people have thought for years that he told Dannii to “f*** off” but he’s revealed what he actually said.

    “Now a lot of people have rewound that moment. There was so much speculation about what I said underneath my breath. So many people thought I said, “F*** off ”.

    “But I was a primary school teacher, so I wouldn’t say that on live TV. I said, “I’m not ashamed”.

    The Finnish singer who recently revealed that she was engaged to her girlfriend has exceeded all expectations to become the favourite to win this year’s X Factor.

    The singer who had a rocky start in her time with the juggernaut show said that she feared an anti-gay backlash and felt forced to live a lie after getting engaged to her girlfriend in the summer. She revealed that she and her girlfriend, Meri were the first gay female couple to come out in Finland.

    She said that she used to take selfies, but cut out Meri of the picture because she was afraid of the public’s reaction. She said,

    “It was so stupid. I was taking selfies and always pretending I was by myself when of course I had my girlfriend next to me.

    “It was my 28th birthday when I decided, ‘I’ve had enough’. I’d been hiding it for a year and couldn’t do it anymore.”

    She finally came out by posting a post on Facebook, in an interview she said that she was so nervous that she actually got her girlfriend to press the “Post” button.

    “I decided I was old enough to do something about it and come out. I was so scared. I couldn’t press the button to publish the post on Facebook. I got my fiancée to do it. We were so nervous. But it was good.”

     

    Joe Crilly from Bookmaker William Hill said, ”

    Saara has come from nowhere to head the betting at this late stage but the way this year’s show has gone, anything could happen this week”.

    Odds for Saara to win the X Factor are 8/13, whilst Matt Terry is 2/1 and Five After Midnight are lagging behind at 11/2.

     

     

     

     

  • That time Geordie Shore’s Nathan got c**k slapped by Gaz and Scotty T

    That time Geordie Shore’s Nathan got c**k slapped by Gaz and Scotty T

    So this is a turn up for the books. We were just remembering back to episode 1107 of Geordie Shore as you do when we stumbled across the moment that Gaz and Scotty T were slapping their dicks across Nathan’s face!

    Openly bisexual reality star Nathan Henry certainly got an eyeful when his co-stars Gary Beadle and Scotty T went skinny dipping with him.

    What started out as a bit of skinny dipping fun turned into a full-on chopper fest after Gaz and Scotty T started to slap their penises against Nathan, much to Nathan’s delight!

    Nathan was the first to strip off and run into the sea and was joined very quickly by his fellow cast mates and it’s not too long before Nathan admits how much he’s enjoying having all the boys naked in the sea with him!

    Watching from the shore line, Charlotte remarks,

    “I don’t think it’s the best idea that all the boys are slapping their cocks around Nathan’s head considering bisexual. He might just open his mouth and one might fall in, and then that would be pretty awkward!”

  • YouTube apparently banned Mykki Blanco’s videos because of “balls”

    YouTube apparently banned Mykki Blanco’s videos because of “balls”

    Singer Mykki Blanco has had his latest music video, “Loner” removed (and reinstated) after he called their decision to censor his video as a “homophobic double standard”.

    The musician slammed the video platform for what he called a “homophobic double standard” when his video for “Loner” was apparently removed and then reinstated, but censored with users having to sign in to confirm their age, after YouTube said the video breached their community guidelines.

    The star took to Twitter to slam the Google-owned platform,

    https://twitter.com/MykkiBlanco/status/804726682464768000?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw

     

    The problem seemed to lie in the fact that someone at YouTube thought the video contained a real life man’s scrotum, which was actually a man’s knee. Heaven forbid!

    Heaven forbid!

    https://twitter.com/MykkiBlanco/status/804727727366479872?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw

     

    The video was later reinstated by YouTube, but now viewers must sign in to view the video. Speaking to MIC Mykko said that as an artist he’s experienced homophobia in the entertainment industry.

    “It is exhausting that as a queer artist not only do I experience homophobia in the entertainment industry but also censorship for the unapologetically queer imagery I promote,” Blanco told Mic, noting that “topless women with bare buttocks is acceptable, [yet] suggestive queer imagery is banned.”

    YouTube has allowed videos with much more sexually suggestive imagery without censorship. Videos such as Eric Prydz’s “Call On Me” and Miley Cyrus’s “Wrecking Ball”  are not blocked.

    Guess which Gogglebox star is getting married!

    Looks like wedding bells are gonna chime as Gogglebox star Chris Steed has set a date for his wedding!

    Chris Steed, (on the right) or as you might know him as one-half of Stephen and Chris, the Brighton boys from the hit Channel 4 show, Gogglebox, has told THEGAYUK.com he’s getting married to his boyfriend, Tony, and they’ve set a date for next year.

    So make sure you clear your diary for July next year, the 8th of July to be exact. The pair got engaged last year on top of the Eiffel Tower in Paris, France. They got together after Stephen and Chris, undoubtedly one of the show’s stars pulls, decided to split after the first series of Gogglebox aired.

    He revealed what he’d be wearing as well. He’ll be walking down the aisle in the most expensive thing he’s ever bought – a £3000 teal suit from Dolce and Gabbana. Well, la de dar!

    So will his hubby-to-be be wearing a matching suit?

    Chris joked,

    “He did turn around and say to me, ‘Because you just spent three thousand pounds on a Dolce and Gabbana Suit, does that mean I get a Dolce and Gabbana suit for the wedding?’ I said, ‘If you pay for it, of course.’”

    Romance is not dead!

    But don’t expect a huge lavish wedding, he told us it’s going to be a “family affair” unless OK Magazine want to do a feature on it, then wedding invites will be winging their way to a few celebrities.

    He joked,

    “If OK Magazine wanted to actually do a feature on it and pay us an obscene amount of money then we might invite a few celebrities.”

    He hasn’t started sending out the invites yet, but we’re expecting our any day now!

    Celebrity Big Brother hunk Austin Armacost is getting some new ink done…

    Hunky Austin Armacost has decided that his thighs need a little decoration to join the rest of his tats but what has he decided on?

     

    The star had no probs whipping down his trousers to get the brand new tattoo inked on to his thighs and he’s opted for a beautiful design, with petals… It looks like a Protea flower, which is the national flower of South Africa and its name actually has a really beautiful meaning, “Change and Hope”.

    Taking a few pictures for Instagram, he managed to get his fans hot under the collar, with nearly 1000 likes in just a few hours.

     

     

    However, he’s of course not the only celeb with an epic thigh tattoo, Michelle Visage recently shared the story behind her thigh tattoo with THEGAYUK.com, which got a lot of fans talking when she was photoed with Rylan Clark recently.

     

     

    Speaking exclusively in Issue 24 of THEGAYUK, Michelle revealed that the tattoo was to honour her two daughters, Lola and Lilly. She got them done in San Antonio, Texas, after both her daughters were born.

    She said,

    “My daughters are both Pisces and I wanted to get some kind of commemorative tattoo. I didn’t want two sh so close to my vagina so I turned it into two mermaids.

    “It’s called a water colour tattoo. This guy Michael Russo did it. A really great job, really great work.”

  • Michelle Visage: All Stars could cause people to hate you

    You may recall that this past season of RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars was a bit of a train crash for some contestants. Well, super judge, Michelle Visage has suggested that you should only go on the show if you’re “stable” and willing to take the risk.

    Speaking exclusively to THEGAYUK.com RuPaul’s Drag Race super judge, Michelle Visage has suggested that the All-Star version of the show is tough going and only the most “stable” should apply; and it can be a bad idea if you don’t think you can handle pressure. Answering concerns that doing an All-Star version could cause you to damage your brand, Michelle said that there was always the risk of the audience falling out of love with you and that they could end up hating you.

    In fact, you should just stay clear if you’re worried about destroying all the good work you’ve done in creating your brand.

    She told us,

    “There’s always that risk because if you were loved first time around and you f*** up the second time around, there is the risk that people are going to hate you.
    “It can be a bad idea if you’re not sure that you can handle it. If you’re not sure you can handle it, you shouldn’t do it.”

    But it’s not all bad if you’re up for the challenge. Doing All-Stars could help further your career, she told us,

    “I think that if you’re stable and you know which way you’re going to play the game and you feel con dent, then it can be a really good thing.
    “Here’s the bottom line, it’s a TV show. Somebody goes home every week and this is the best of the best.”

    Michelle does have a key to keeping herself safe from the Trolls. She revealed to us, that she blocks hate immediately and never gets involved with social media disputes.

    The job of a reality TV presenter is to look excited and interested – constantly… So how do they keep their energy levels up? It appears they turn it off immediately the camera shuts off. Cake Wars star Jonathan Bennett shared a clip on social media showing how when they film a ‘to camera’ ident for their show they are able to turn off the smiles as the director calls cut!

    ALSO READ: Is Jonathan Bennett gay?

    Sharing a behind the scene clip with co-host Tamera Mowry, Jonathan Bennett demonstrates how they both turn the energy on the moment the camera starts rolling.

    Want to know what’s on Milo Yiannopoulos’ tour rider?

    So if you’re planning to book Milo Yiannopoulos for conservative chat you’d better be ready to go on a shopping expedition in order to get him in the mood to perform.

    Milo Yiannopoulos

    The Tab revealed what’s on the journalist and the Internet’s super villain’s rider.

    So it starts off pretty legit. Bottles of champagne, trainer approved snacks and fruit, a full-length mirror, cough drops and humidifier, WiFi and then it gets weird. Really weird.

    He wants his peaches defuzzed, an 8×10 framed signed photo of himself, non-fair trade coffee, a bowl and a half of green M&Ms (approx 1400) and a fruit platter prepared to form an M shape. Oh and he also wants a snow cone machine.

    But then things get a little outrageous…

    He doesn’t want gingers – but he does want four topless Abercrombie models and his preference is black models. Anyone who identifies as lesbian must remain 100 feet away from him. They are not permitted to wear khakis, flannel, Birkenstocks, or plaid. All female staff are required to wear brassieres or other supportive undergarments.

    And if you get things wrong expect huge fines.

    He doesn’t want phone calls in his dressing room – any disturbance will find a venue being fined $5000 and he hears Adele playing the venue will be fined $7,500.

    And for on stage? He requests a fog machine and bear spray.

    Milo confirmed to The Tab that the rider was authentic.

    Last week Milo had a scheduled talk at his old school, The Langton Grammar School for Boys, cancelled amid security concerns. Activists were planning a protest outside the school, which caused the Department for Education’s counter extremism unit to reach out to the school.
