Mr. Gay Philadelphia Has Been Crowned!

I just got back from Philly and boy are my arms tired! My tongue too, from it constantly dropping to the floor over the assortment of sizzling meat parading onstage for the Mr. Gay Philadelphia Pageant, which I gleefully judged along with other Gotham gays like Mickey Boardman and Will Wikle.

Representing various local businesses, the contestants served up evening wear, swimsuits, and attitude, building up to a dazzling q&a category whereby hosts Brittany Lynn and Frank DeCaro grilled them about world affairs, "Philadelphia freedom" and Susan Boyle. The winner's answer was only so-so, but heck, he was super hot, so we gladly elevated him to the king of the Philly nellies. So congratulations, Charles--but you're lucky I didn't find out till afterwards that you're a really nice guy. You wouldn't have gotten ANY votes from us sour bitches.

Is that him standing in front of the open coffin? Who's in there? The runner-up? I hope you asked Mr. Gay Philly where he stands on straight marriage!!

I bet he has one heck of a Philly cheese steak between his legs.

By the way, kudos to Bruce Yelk for organizing this so seamlessly every year. And I forgot to mention Ginger Snap, who graced the stage with an uncanny Cher impression at the halfway mark. And a shout out to Nicholas, who was a super cute runner-up with oodles of personality.

It all happened at a club called Pure, which, delightfully, wasn't!

Looks like he has stains on his jacket. Are they from the judges?

I went to the Mr. Gay Philadelphia contest and was completly floored when contestant #2 I think his name was Nathan didn't win, infact, he didn't even make it to the top 5. The crowd loved him and he was gorgeous. Philly must be blind.. It was dumb....

Musto says:

I agree that Nathan was hot. I gave him high marks. I even voted him for Mr. Fitness (which went to someone else). I don't know what happened. Maybe the claque of audience members screaming his name all through the evening turned off some of the other judges. Or maybe it's just a matter of taste. But it wasn't MY fault!
