With fall in the air, there are bound to be changes. This holds especially true for several of the Homorazzi.com cast members. It’s only been 6 months since the site was launched where 16 gays began sharing their ramblings and views of the world around them. We’ve gone through some content and design changes but [...]

“I’d like to ask for your daughter’s hand in marriage.” How can a question so seemingly simple become so complicated, convoluted, and conflict-ridden? Well, after watching the Vancouver Arts Club Theatre’s “Black Comedy” and the short curtain-warmer “The Marriage Proposal”, it begins to make a little more sense. The father-daughter-son-in-law triangle is explored in both [...]

Topher and I watched the premiere episode of OUTtv’s Tops & Bottoms over the weekend, and we had quite the laugh. Tops & Bottoms is an improv comedy show featuring the best in queer improvisers, from our very own back yard. Each week, host David C. Jones releases a few more Bottoms from “the closet” [...]

Many people have seen the Laromie Project (play originally by the Denver Theatre Company OR the HBO movie written and directed by Kaufman) or at the very least heard about the terrible hate crime/murder of Matthew Shepard that took place 11 years ago (October 12, 1998 to be exact) in Laramie, Wyoming. Now, his mother, [...]

Last week I had the pleasure to attend my first Vancouver Queer Film Festival showing – ever. Honestly, I didn’t know much about the film (or short films, as it turned out to be), but I was excited nevertheless. It turned out to be 4 short films: Dinx, Q-Case, King County, and Boycrazy. Dinx Dinx [...]

This week, on August 21st, a unique ceremony will be held in Ottawa to mark the 20 year anniversary of a gay-bashing, which ultimately led to the death of Alain Brosseau. Brosseau was attacked by four individuals on Aug. 21, 1989, when walking home from a late night shift at the Chateau Laurier Hotel. He [...]

Prolific director, John Hughes, passed away unexpectedly today. He suffered a heart attack during a morning walk while on a trip to Manhattan. I’m totally dating myself here but I grew up watching Hughes’ movies and quite saddened by his death. Though most of his iconic movies were released over 20 years ago, his movies [...]

The HSBC Celebration of Light is a fireworks festival that is held in Vancouver over four nights every summer. It has been an annual event since the early 90s and the event has grown into one of the largest fireworks festivals in the world where almost 2 million people over four nights reportedly take in [...]

Having been raised by eternal hippies definitely had a few upsides. For one, there was somehow always a pair of small scissors kicking around the house. A second benefit, was that I was exposed to natural foods and medicines from my conception. When you get organic carrot muffins with carob for your first birthday, you [...]

Homorazzi.com, in collaboration with Martini Presents invite you to reFRESH @ Republic for our mid-July T-Dance! For those of you that have never been to a T-Dance, it’s based on the idea of afternoon tea, yet, instead of sipping Red Rose & devouring desserts, you’re drinking beer and booze and devouring boys. People don’t really [...]

I, like the majority of you out there, am in complete shock hearing the news about Michael Jackson. Even as I type this, I’m in a state of denial and can’t actually believe all the media reports. No matter how much of a punch line Michael Jackson has become the past few years, he will [...]

I fondly remember numerous times during the Summers of my youth spent playing tennis on Sundays with my parents and then spending weekdays hitting the courts with my friends from noon ’til the sun went down. What will likely surprise many of you, is that I use to be a hardcore sports fanatic. I use [...]

Homorazzi was lucky enough to grab some time with Montreal born celebrity photographer Mike Ruiz. This hunky latin stud and Homorazzi fave chatted with yours truly for an interview, but rather than your standard Q & A, it turned into two friends having a casual Saturday afternoon chat. In fact, the dialogue became casual and [...]

When I first started working out my cardio workouts used to be pretty long – an hour on average. I took the “more is better” approach. For the last ten years or so I’ve been doing what’s commonly referred to as high-intensity interval training, which is a “less is more” approach to cardio training. And [...]

I am sure, without a doubt, that I would be killed off by natural selection if we were at a different point in time. Obviously, I wouldn’t be creating children and passing along my genes due to my relations with men, not women. But, I would personally be dead meat due to my “blindness”. I [...]

Following the theme of “painfully single” that oh-so permeates my article and video contributions to homorazzi.com, today I’m looking at that elusive thing called “love”. Oh, and by “elusive”, apparently I mean abundant, bountiful, frequent and facile. Love is EVERYWHERE. But, and here’s my spin on the issue, it seems so vapidly short-lived and reboundable [...]

It’s no secret that the Winter games will be hosted in wonderful, beautiful Vancouver, British Columbia in 2010. Everywhere you turn in Vancouver these days seems to be dripping in Olympic logos, sponsorships, or news stories. It promises to be a thrilling experience to be in the city as the event is actually going on. [...]

(Left to right: Patrick, Reichen, Adam and Brian) While in LA last week, we had the opportunity to interview the sexy Reichen Lehmkuhl on camera. I’m sure you recognize him from at least one of the following: Winning the Amazing Race with Chip Fear Factor Days of Our Lives Dante’s Cove Frasier Author of the [...]

Even before sneaking in episodes of Queer as Folk (the British version) late at night after everyone had gone to bed, before Will & Grace, before Ellen, BEFORE the Internet, I found my first gay icon. Where does a suburban kid growing up and grappling with “OMG am I gay?” go for his gay fix? [...]
