Perez, I think you're off base with this one, and here's why. Nigel doesn't like the effeminite STYLE that those two auditioners showed. Not to mention they fell! He wasn't sure how they'd work within the show, which is why he gave them a chance to do the choreography to prove themselves. JUST LIKE EVERYONE ELSE. Nigel & Co are NOT anti-gay or homophobic. There are gay contestants EVERY season, who not only receive equal commentary but ACCOLADES.
You are completely undermining your own call for equality if you expect gays to be treated EXTRA special, not just like everyone else. These two guys gave an odd performance, and didn't get through. You need to find balance in your activism. If you tip the scales too far so that you're asking for not only equality but PREFERENTIAL TREATMENT, you completely undermine the entire cause behind your goals for equality, which we all deserve.
Last night, Nigel treated them as equals. He is entirely entitled to his opinion as a professional dancer that the STYLE of dance they auditioned with wasn't as good as OTHER dancers styles.
You need to let this one go. Stick to the important issues (like Miss Cal!) and leave the ones like this to rest, or everyone will just stop listening to the constantly-complaining-queen who can always find a complaint in every circumstance.
This is much better than the picture from the other day! He looks like he's had one or two whiskeys. But still, HOTTTTT! Especially scruffy, and grinning.
Finally! I was starting to wonder if he had become a hermit. (Not to say I would blame him... all this sudden fame / paparazzi pictures would be intimidating!)
