  • Cliff Richard will take sexuality to the grave

    Cliff Richard will take sexuality to the grave

    Legendary singer Sir Cliff Richard has said that he won’t be revealing his sexuality any time soon.

    Speaking with Gloria Hunniford, Sir Cliff said that he won’t reveal his sexuality… because it’s nobody’s business.

    Being interviewed in an extended and exclusive Loose Women, hit maker Sir Cliff spoke about his recent ordeal after being accused of sexual abuse by men dating back to the 80s, which he described as the “deepest and darkest hole” he had ever been in.

    The Crown Prosecution Service dropped its investigation against the 75-year-old singer after finding “insufficient evidence to prosecute”.

    Sir Cliff revealed that Sir Elton John was one of the first of his celebrity mates to contact him after the news broke that the police were searching his property for evidence. He said,

    “Elton [John] was one of the first people that called me. I can’t use the language he used, but he said ‘Go for the — rotten throat.”

    When questioned about his sexuality, Richards said,

    “I always feel that I’m one of the most open people.

    “I don’t mind talking about things but there are things that are mine.

    That will go with me to my grave. And I’ve given up for instance, I don’t talk about my family, I certainly don’t talk about my sexuality.”

    He went on say that his personal life was strictly off-limits and that it was nobody’s business.

    “My personal life is absolutely my business, and it’s nobody’s business but mine. And I feel that about other people. I read stories in the press about other celebrities and alleged scandals and things going on. And I’m thinking ‘Is it illegal?’ No? If adults do what they want to do behind their bedroom doors it’s absolutely up to them. I have no interest. It’s not my business and it’s not your business either about me.”

    Liam Gallagher is facing tough criticism after a homophobic tweet was sent from his Twitter account, in which he used a gay slur to describe the behaviour of Russian football supporters.

    Gallagher, 43, criticised Russian hooligans for wearing bum bags and having “batty boy” muscles.

    He went on to say that he’d be more worried about having his “arse pinched”.

    The tweet was in reference to the hooliganism which has marred the Euro 2016 football championship.

    The homophobic slur has been criticised after it was posted just days after the Orlando gay night club massacre, which left 49 people dead.

    In the  tweet the former Oasis singer said,

    “Russian hooligans skintight shorts bumbags batty boy muscles ha ha I’d be more worried bout getting me arse pinched LG X”

    The tweet has been retweeted nearly 9,000 times and has been liked by 9,200 Twitter users.

    He later seemingly apologised for his tweet saying,

    “If I’ve upset anybody with my tweets I apologise that includes you RKID as you were LG x”

    Former Queer As Folk and Corrie star Antony Cotton blasted the singer saying that in light of the Pulse Massacre the tweet was insensitive and “ugly”.

    Gaydio DJ Phil Marriot called the singer a “disgrace”.

    Taking to Instagram Caitlyn uploaded a video in which she said that there was nothing like “living your life authentically” and that the year had been so much fun.

    “But if this honesty with myself about who I am, and who I was made by God to be, doesn’t constitute as the peace that passes all understanding, then I don’t know what does. It is like this weight I have been carrying my whole life has been lifted from me, and I have never felt such freedom.”

    He said that he hoped his fans “would hear his heart” and that he would still be loved. His band has had considerable successful since their first album released in 2009.

  • LGBT Peoples We’d Like To See As The Next Bond

    Much is being said about who is destined to be the next Bond and well here at THEGAYUK we’d like to see a bit of diversity…

    So if Spectre is Daniel Craig’s last film in the Bond franchise and the job is up for grabs, we’ve got some suggestions from our very own community.

    1) Paris Lees

    Embed from Getty Images

    Although we can’t find her age (how you do this in this modern age of Wikipedia, Google and FB is a dark art – something that could come in handy for a Bond), so we’re guessing she’s mid to late 20s, Paris Lees might be a little too young to play Bond, but how magnificent would she be. Outspoken, witty, dresses to kill,  well connected and knows how to mix a good cocktail we’re told.


    2) Andrew Hayden-Smith, 32

    Swave, British, easy on the eye and Northern – we’ve yet to have a Tyne And Wear bred Bond and we think it’s about time. He’d be the youngest Bond to play the part if he got it, but since Bonds need to last a decade we could definitely see Hayden-Smith maturing into the role nicely.


    3) Sue Perkins, 46

    Sue Perkins’ got the smarts and the sense of humour. She exudes confidence, which is a must for any Bond.

    Bond, Sue Bond – no wait doesn’t she already exist?


    4) Martyn Andrews, 36,

    Former cover star for THEGAYUK, Martyn is an international man having travelled the world extensively. He’s multi-lingual and a genius when it comes to Russian politics having served at a journalist for RT for nearly 10 years. At over 6’3″ he’d be one of the tallest Bonds to date.


     

    5) Wentworth Miller, 43

    The perfect age for a Bond – plus Wentworth Miller’s got that whole prison thing going for him.

    Plus he looks amazing in a suit – so what more do you really need?


     

    6) Alan Cumming, 51

    Scottish born Alan Cumming, showed his Machiavellian side in The Good Wife, we think Alan could definitely pull off a gay bond. At 51 he may be a little too old – as Bonds should ideally last about 10 years in the role – which means by his last film he’d be into his 60s. He wouldn’t be the first Scot to play Bond, rather famously Sean Connery embodied the role and is considered one of the best Bonds ever.


    7) Asifa Lahore

    Can you imagine audience reactions to Britain’s most famous Muslim Drag Queen as Bond. It gives us shivers now, which is why we’re nominating her for the role. Asifa could be her own Bond girl as well – saving money on the budget.


     

    8) Gareth Thomas

    How’s about a Welsh Bond? Physically fit, a man’s man and knows a thing or to about the important of blending in with your crowd. Although Bond often works alone you need a man who knows the importance of teamwork.


     

    9) John Partridge, 44

    He’s got the looks and he’s the perfect age. EastEnders’ bad gay boy would be perfect for James Bond. Plus he looks divine all suited and booted. Aside from the perfect look, he’s got a heart of gold and he loves his mother – we’d like to see more of this fluffy side to bond.


     

    10) Seann Miley Moore, 26

    Hey if we’re going to totally f*ck with the heteronormative brand of James Bond we might as well suggest Seann Miley Moore. The X Factor star moved from Sydney, Australia to London to make his dream come true, proving that he’s ready to move mountains to get the job done.

    He wouldn’t be the first Aussie to take the part, George Lazenby played Bond in 1969’s On Her Majesty’s Secret Service.

  • James Blunt Has His Music Career Thanks To Gay People

    Global star James Blunt has described how two gay people gave him the strength to release his debut multi-million selling single ‘You’re Beautiful’.

    Embed from Getty Images

    “I’m a lucky man”, James Blunt said at the annual event, An Evening With Women in Los Angeles, as he revealed that hit song writer Linda Perry was the driving force behind his success when she signed him to her brand new label Custard Records in 2003.

    Speaking to GayStarNews, Blunt said,

    “She was the person who plucked me out of the UK and has given me a career. For me to come play here is an absolute pleasure and a huge honor.”

    Linda Perry

    Speaking about early conversations regarding his accent, Blunt revealed that before he teamed up with Perry, he was asked to change the way he spoke – and that he struggled to get signed because of his voice.

    “I was asked if i could change my speaking voice and my accent and I struggled to get signed in the UK because of that accent. I moved to America and a woman who is gay herself and had seen much harder prejudice didn’t give stuff about a speaking voice. She heard music instead and said, ‘Come on.’ She put her arms around me, signed me and has given me a chance.”

    After he signed to Perry’s label, Sir Elton John stepped in and signed the former Army Captain to his management company. Blunt has since gone on to sell over 20 million albums and 20 million singles – thanks to the faith that Perry and John placed in him.

    The 42-year-old singer continued,

    “The people who picked me up and looked after me have been from the LGBT community,

    “Really without them I wouldn’t be in the music business. If it’s a strange coincidence then it’s a coincidence I’ll take but I don’t think it is.”

    Revealing his admiration for the LGBT+ community Blunt said,

    “It’s a group of people who have to overcome a lot of prejudice, great adversity in different ways and they need support and need to support each other.”
