Straight STers, I'm curious are their any celebs (i.e. Upton below), that you know/think are hot that you'd be surprised if a gay man knew?

Posted by MDH Apr 18 '18, 13:06

Like I know Sophie Ellis Bextor and all sorts of pop divas that you all have never heard of. Does it work in reverse?

Without gay men would be a nation of Roseanne's -- nm - zeitgeist Apr 18, 13:54
this chick looks like a Madame Tussaud's statue came to life. -- nm - Reagen Apr 18, 13:29
I know who sophie is, have had her on playlists for years - it's not just pop culture, it's areas of interest, I think. - b. Apr 18, 13:26
Not with general celebs from, say, movies & TV. But there are lots of niche celebs well known in their fields but not well known generally. - Roger More Apr 18, 13:25 4
- in my im above, I actually added/deleted another example from ST that goes to that about YTers. -- nm - b. Apr 18, 13:26 3
  - Yeah, I’d never have heard about Casey Niestadt w/o Mop. YouTube celebs only do mainstream when they do something dickish - Roger More Apr 18, 13:29 2
    - (niestat ;) - I was watching him daily before he came up on ST.) -- nm - b. Apr 18, 13:34 1
      - quit feeding mop's delusions, please -- nm - crash davis Apr 18, 13:35
Actually, I think its how much a person cares about pop culture and doesn't have anything to do with orientation. -- nm - crash davis Apr 18, 13:17
I think if you're talking A List celebrities, like Upton, then, no. I could name 50 actresses/singers with a small role on a show or movie that - Flavorize Apr 18, 13:10 19
- Movies/TV I'll probably do better too since obviously that's how we got here. I'm thinking more A list like and such. -- nm - MDH Apr 18, 13:11 14
  - This Bextor person cannot be A list. -- nm - Max Apr 18, 13:20
  - I'll list a few A-listers, just for fun--Olivia Munn, Chloe Grace Moretz, Stacy Kiebler, Maria Sharapova - Flavorize Apr 18, 13:17 12
    - Anna Kournikova is arguably more well known. -- nm - Reagen Apr 18, 13:28
    - uh, none of those are A-listers (Munn maybe borderline at best) -- nm - decline Apr 18, 13:19 10
      - WRONG - if you are ranked World #1 on five separate occasions, you are an A-lister without a question -- nm - crash davis Apr 18, 13:22 4
        
        there are very few permanent A-listers and a has been tennis player who used ped's to win ain't one of them -- nm - decline Apr 18, 13:25 1
        
        When it comes to tennis, whose word do I take: John McEnroe or yours? -- nm - crash davis Apr 18, 13:29
        
        They've all had their "it gal" moments--A-listers probably trend for much, much longer -- nm - Flavorize Apr 18, 13:24 1
        
        You're thinking modelling or something. One of them is an athlete with a large record of accomplishment. That is what I'm thinking of. -- nm - crash davis Apr 18, 13:26
      - Yeah--I was picking from a list I found. I think the A-listers are too recognizable--They've all had their moments of stardom...probably not - Flavorize Apr 18, 13:22 4
        
        one of them has five Grand Slam titles, that is A List -- nm - crash davis Apr 18, 13:23 3
        
        You're right--totally true--I was thinking, of all of them, that one would trip-up MDH for recognizability -- nm - Flavorize Apr 18, 13:25
        
        what's a grand slam title? -- nm - decline Apr 18, 13:24 1
        
        Its the name of the book that falls from a shelf when you slam the door really hard. -- nm - crash davis Apr 18, 13:25
- ( i would not call Upton A-list.) -- nm - Andie Apr 18, 13:10 3
  - SI Swimsuit cover gal about 5 times--as a model, she's an A-lister. - Flavorize Apr 18, 13:18 1
    - fwiw, I think she had a period of peak visibility where she brushed it; but, since then, it waned. -- nm - b. Apr 18, 13:22
  - Oh HELL no. Maybe a tiny smidge above C-list. -- nm - Beryllium Apr 18, 13:13
nah. i mean, if you follow general pop culture, those types of people are going to cross your path in some way. -- nm - Andie Apr 18, 13:08 4
- I assumed so, but someone mentioned the Hadids the other day at work, and I was like "Who?" -- nm - MDH Apr 18, 13:10 3
  - Who are not that hot, IMO -- nm - Reagen Apr 18, 13:26 1
    - agreed -- nm - Epiphany Apr 18, 13:38
  - That has more to do with you being old than gay IMO. -- nm - Roger More Apr 18, 13:15
