Mariah Carey’s biggest fan: Alex Nicolaou

Posted on December 21, 2012 | 1 comment

It is now Friday afternoon on the east coast in the United States, and I thought I’d share this post before I sign off for the day. I hope this makes you smile and gives you a good chuckle.

A few weeks ago Late Night talk show host, Jimmy Fallon, broadcast a video with his band, The Roots, and Mariah Carey singing All I Want for Christmas.  Check out Alex in the UK (possibly Mariah Carey’s biggest fan) watching the performance for the first time.

If Fallon’s video made you laugh check out Alex watching the song from start to finish here.  Its hilarious.

Probably the best mash up I’ve seen for pop music from 2012.  Was this a good year for you? Hearing these songs will probably make you smile and remember some of those happy memories. Enjoy the mash up.

Toys for Joys Boston 2012

Posted on December 16, 2012 | 1 comment

toys-for-joys-inviteThis past Saturday was the 4th annual Toys for Joys in Boston. Each year this event collects thousands of gifts that are in-turn passed along to local charities for their distribution to underprivileged children during the holiday season. I love the cause and enjoy the party each year. If you missed Saturday’s party, but want to contribute to this non-profit’s cause, you may make a donation on their website, here.

Thank you to all who posed for the photos from the 4th Annual Toys for Joys and thank you to Sergio for bringing along the camera.

You go girl

You go girlI am more than a little curious about who is buying this product.

Don’t believe me that this is for real? Check out the promotional video, but beware its a bit gross. After watching the clip, I promptly moved my toothbrush as far away from the toilet as possible. I’m now contemplating storing it in my medicine cabinet.

Versace EROS

Posted on December 15, 2012 | 1 comment

Perfume commercials as a general rule tend to be ridiculous and Versace’s advertisement for their new fragrance EROS is no exception. Do I care? Not when the model looks like this.

November 6th election results are behind us now and the LGBT community has so much to be happy about, but more work remains.

When elephants retire

Posted on December 10, 2012 | 1 comment

Have you seen this two minute video from CBS America? It was posted on YouTube a couple of years ago and is a touching story worth the watch with a not so subtle message that strikes home.

Thanks to Sergio for sharing this with me.

Santa Speedo Run

Posted on December 9, 2012 | 4 comments

Boston Santa Speedo RunThis past Saturday was Boston’s annual Santa Speedo Run. Despite the rain forecast and the steady drizzle Saturday morning, more than 700 men and women braved the elements and ran through Back Bay in little more than a speedo and sneakers.

Every year the Boston LGBT community shows up but this year’s run resembled a Pride event.  From the “pre-partying” at homes in Back Bay to the impromptu dance party on Boylston that broke out as runners congregated after the run – the city on Saturday afternoon had a Pride-esque feeling that warmed my heart even if I couldn’t quite feel my toes by the time I left the Back Bay.

Below is my annual video paying tribute to those who ran – enjoy.

Liked the video? Here is the 2011 video and 2010 video from the Boston Santa Speedo Run.

Santa Speedo Run next Saturday

Posted on December 1, 2012 | 3 comments

BosGuyOne week from today Boston will host the 13th annual Santa Speedo Run through the Back Bay; spectators, mark your calendars; runners take note of the forecast and pray for warm temperatures.

Earlier this month I post my video from the 2011 run, below is a video from the Santa Speedo Run from 2010.  Can’t make it to Boylston Street next Saturday? No worries, I’ll be there snapping photographs and chatting with runners to tell you all about it.

Men and women shouldn’t live together

This Guinness advertisement was first produced nearly 20 years ago (1995) but it never aired, which is a shame because I love it.

Gentleman’s Rant: Homosexuality

Posted on November 15, 2012 | Leave a comment

This is hilarious… To my gay viewers feel free to tune out after the first two minutes. To my heterosexual male readers (do I have any?) feel free to fast forward to just after two minutes.  Sorry to snub the ladies on this one. I’ll make it up to you later – promise.

Brazil post: Rio de Janeiro

Posted on November 14, 2012 | 1 comment

Each day this week I’m writing a “Brazil post” to raise awareness that I’m leaving on vacation for South America on Friday.  Although I will not be visiting Rio de Janeiro on this trip to Brazil, I think it is one of the most amazing places in the world and a place I would encourage travelers to consider visiting.  I stumbled upon this old video footage of the gay beach on Ipanema; definitely worth visiting.

Brazil post: Cueca Funk

Posted on November 12, 2012 | 2 comments

brazil-underwearI leave for Brazil on Friday and to build excitement about the trip each day I am going to publish what I’m calling a “Brazil Post”.  I thought I’d start the Brazil themed post with a bit of music and dance since most people associate the sounds of samba and Carnival with this South American nation.

A couple years ago I posted this video of a bunch of young guys dancing in their underwear (a.k.a. cueca). Enjoy the video.
