Driven to Distraction

I have dreams and goals and stuff to do around the house. These are the things this week that kept me from getting to any of it.

Here He Is, Mr. Gay America

October 27, 2006

Hot on the heels of my Xanadu dancer euphoria comes another opportunity to realize a lifelong dream. I’m going to be judging a pageant. Okay, so the Mr. Gay Contest this weekend in Palm Springs is not technically a pageant. The event’s organizers make a point to refer to it as a competition and they don’t like the P word at all. Fine with me, as long as there’s a line-up of cute, anxious hopefuls and a crown, I don’t care what you call it.

Friday night is the Mr. Gay America competition, which I’ll be a judging, and Saturday is the Mr. Gay International competition. I’m not sure what my judging will entail apart from lots of judgment but I do know this, I take the calling seriously and look forward to helping select a solid role model for our community and if he happens to look good in his underwear, well, so much the better.

Both events will be hosted by the delightful Bruce Villanch and held at the Palm Springs Convention Center so if you happen to be in the ‘hood, come check it out. For info and to judge the contestants based on jpgs, visit mrgaycompetition.com

I’ll have a full report after the event. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I have to go think up some probing interview questions…
