Vice: Gay Icon!

Vice.

Any journalist who uses the moronic term 'gay icon' should have their fingers broken, lest they ever go near a keyboard again.

PS Please note Vice has illustrated this article with several black men - one of whom isn't actually gay - cos they is so down with them, bro.*

*Actually all written be whiteys.

Danny Dyer: Nope

Daily Star.

Nor do I.

Russia: Putin Speaks!

Pink News et bumpress all - reporting on the Andrew Marr Show interview earlier today, where Putin said he's not homophobic and has gay friends - claimed by stunning GAYPRESSLOGIC this proves PUTIN SECRETLY HATES THE GAYS!!!

Hey Putin! There is no link between being gay and sexualising underage boys

Last year, Pink News famously said Margaret Thatcher was "a gay icon" - "Despite some controversy around Section 28, which in 1987 banned the teaching or promotion of homosexuality" - so why don't they say Uncle Vlad is a gay icon, too?

Thank you Miss Babs!

Ben Cohen: Gay Icon?

If he's such a great "gay icon" and "straight ally" why does he only give out 10% of the money his foundation makes?

PS Fagburn has asked the Ben Cohen Stand-up Foundation to explain their accounts, but after initially engaging no reply to this question comes.
Happy if they want to clear this matter up.

PS There is absolutely no evidence of ill-intent or wrongdoing by anyone.

Tom Daley: Gay Icon

Can we all stop pretending Tom's bisexual now?

David Beckham: So Farewell Then...

The world of gay has been literally sent spinning off its axis by the news that David Beckham is retiring from the professional footyball, Fagburn can reveal.
The former England soccerball captain is one of only two footballers gay men can name, even though they have no idea who he plays for now.
Pink Star News has called him the biggest "gay icon" since Margaret Thatcher.
Asked what accounted for David's gay icon-ness, editor Quentin Smithers told Fagburn; "Not sure really, we say it about anyone - Sonia, Christopher Biggins, Rylan Clark..."
Leading gay commentator, Patrick Smugtwit, has tweeted; "But is Becks a secret gay who will now come out like Robbie Rogers? #sobrave". 
The 38 year-old "metrosexual" is perhaps best known to The Gays for marrying Posh Spice, and selling overpriced underpants by being photographed in a pair of said knickers with a sock shoved down the front.
Dave in Accounts says there was also an incident involving "a sarong". 
More when we've Googled it and checked Wikipedia... 

Update: 39 Pics Of Becks In His Kecks, Huff Post. A fitting tribute...

Jane Russell: 1921-2011

Mark Cousins has written a nice obituary in The Guardian - "Her song Ain't There Anyone Here for Love?, performed in a gymnasium against a backdrop of dancing athletes, gained her a large gay following..."
Reductive but good to see us as part of her story.

Football: Cristianon Sequitur

To The News of the World's idiosyncratically spelt 'World Cup Spesh - Football Studs!' (Geddit?)
"OK, so there may not be 11 of them, but if Fabulous did footie, this lot would be on our team," it puffs in unashamed Glenda Slagg mode. "While your man’s glued to the World Cup, keep an eye out for these hotties."
Perhaps unsurprisingly the only one I've actually heard of is Cristiano Ronaldo.
Although "Football's golden boy is as famous for his body as he is for his ball control", I learn that the delicious Mr Ronaldo is not without his faults; "The midfielder is vain, he's mahogany and he loves wearing necklaces with his swimming trunks. Small wonder he's a gay icon."
Eh?
