John Barrowman Cancels Comi-con Panel After Receiving Personal Threat
One of the world’s most precious natural resources is in danger: John Barrowman, the lovely hero of Torchwood and Arrow and Shark Attack 3 and Central Park West. You may also know him from the video in which his husband accidentally showed his dick.

John was supposed to appear at Montreal Comic-Con, but had to cancel at the last minute due to threats. Yes, it’s very odd: threats, in Canada, the nicest country on Earth? It’s unfathomable. Here’s John’s statement:
“This morning an email was sent that directly referenced me and In light of recent events, I’ve decided to take the advice of my management and family as they were concerned for my safety. We are working with the convention to arrange for security that not only keeps me safe but also all of you who come to see me. I’m really sorry I have had to cancel my panel and photo ops this weekend. I will be signing later today once security has been arranged. Please check with the promoter and social media for updates on where and when I will be signing.”
So weird, right? Why would anyone want to commit violence in this of all ways? What a huge bummer. But the good news is that we’ll still be seeing more of him, since he just announced that he’ll be appearing on two more DC-related shows: The Flash and Legends of Tomorrow. Neat.
It’s a real shame that John had to cancel the appearance, because he’s an absolute delight in person. Here’s our favorite of his appearances, in which he invites cosplayer extraordinaire Justin Saint up on stage to sing a song from Les Miz. Awesome.
PHOTOS: “Magic Mike’s” Alex Pettyfer Hits Gym For New Role, Shows Off Gains
English actor Alex Pettyfer is no stranger to getting in shape for a role.
The Magic Mike actor won over more than a few fans (including us) in the 2012 surprise hit.

But the thing abut getting in ridiculously good shape is it’s pretty damn easy to fall out of. A few months of lazy weekends snacking in front of the tv and you’re well on your way to turning a six-pack into a doughy cake batter.
Well Alex is back on the horse, thanks to a mystery role he’s been training for.
He took to Instagram, the chosen forum for showing off body parts, to share the news:
I know I know I’m being an idiot, but 6 weeks ago I was eating #inandout and drinking #soda, now getting fighting fit for new movie ? #itsasecret #soontoberevealed

Crazed Pokémon Go Players are Capturing Monsters at Gay Bars Instead of Grindr Dates
I don’t think it gets more gay than a Machoke posing in front of a gay bar on a rainbow crosswalk. #PokemonGO pic.twitter.com/BFpMqujobA

As the Pokemon Go craze heats up, it’s causing a stir at gay bars across the country. Customers are reportedly checking their Pokemon Go apps as often as Grindr. And they’ve posted some amusing captures as a result.
And some of the catches reported to social media feel entirely appropriate: Jynx, Machoke, Machop, and Nidoqueen have all been picked up at the gay watering holes.
WHY DID A JYNX APPEAR AS I UBERED PAST THE GAY BAR??? ARE YOU PROFILING???
POKÉMON GO DO YOU HAVE A COMMENT??????— Basic Bruce (@thebryceisryght) July 9, 2016
Overheard at the gay bar, “So it’s like Grindr but you catch Pokemon instead of STIs.” He knows what’s up. #PokemonGO

Matthew Dempsey and Broderick Hunter Find Out If ‘Masculinity’ Makes a Man More Attractive – WATCH
Psychotherapist Matthew Dempsey teamed up with model Broderick Hunter to conduct a little test to see what both men and women found more attractive–men who were more ‘traditionally masculine’ or those that were less so.
Dempsey says the purpose of the experiment was to put “perceived masculinity to the test.” As part of the experiment, Hunter acts out two versions of multiple scenarios, one in which he exhibits more ‘traditionally masculine’ traits and one in which he “shows off a different side of himself.”
Dempsey then has a group of guys and girls watch the scenarios play out and weigh in on what they find more attractive.
See for yourself what turns you on, below.
You can take the poll that viewers take in the video, here. Were you more or less attracted to men with traditionally masculine traits?

National transgender equality ad to air during Republican National Convention
Photo credit: FairnessUSA.org
GLAAD is proud to support a groundbreaking nationwide television ad depicting the challenges faced by transgender people in accessing public restrooms that will have its national television debut on FOX News Channel during the Republican National Convention.
As part of this new campaign to educate the public about the discrimination faced by lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) Americans across the country, the ad features a transgender woman from North Carolina, where HB2 passed earlier this year. HB2 makes it illegal for transgender people to use restrooms in public buildings that match the gender they live every day, making them susceptible to even higher levels of harassment and violence.
Read more about the campaign and the ad in today’s New York Times.
The ad will air nationwide during the final night of the Republican National Convention in Cleveland on Thursday, July 21 shortly before the presumptive nominee, Donald Trump, accepts the Republican nomination for President of the United States. The ad will air nationwide again on MSNBC during the Democratic National Convention in Philadelphia one week later.
The video was released online today with a package of educational resources and materials at FairnessUSA.org. Between July 11 and its national network debut on July 21, we encourage individuals, organizations, and community allies to share links to the video and use hashtag #FairnessUSA.
Discriminatory laws, like HB2 in North Carolina, legislate that people may only use restrooms that correspond to the sex on their birth certificates rather than their lived gender. Described as “the most extreme anti-LGBT measure in the country” by the national headquarters of the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), HB2 is just one of many pieces of discriminatory legislation being introduced across the country. In 2016, lawmakers across 34 states have pushed more than 200 bills which would deny LGBT citizens equal protections under the law.
Transgender Americans are the targets of many of these bills, which prohibit transgender adults, and often students, from using public facilities — like bathrooms — consistent with their gender. Just last Friday, ten states sued the federal government over a guideline that would allow transgender students to use the bathroom that matches the gender they live every day.
According to new survey data released by the National Center for Transgender Equality:
– Fifty-nine percent (59%) of transgender people have avoided public restrooms in the last year because they were afraid of problems like being confronted by others.
– A shocking one in ten (12%) transgender people report they have been harassed, attacked, or sexually assaulted in a restroom in the last year, and one third of transgender people have avoided drinking or eating so that they did not need to use the restroom.
– Eight percent have had medical problems like urinary or kidney infections from avoiding the restroom.
Multiple studies show that transgender people face heightened levels of discrimination that lead to disproportionately high rates of poverty, unemployment, homelessness, inadequate medical care, incarceration, and violence. GLAAD has created a reference guide for journalists to ensure that they can report on these policy issues. Additional resources for writing about the experiences of transgender Americans fairly and accurately may be found on our website.
The ad is funded by Fairness USA, a partnership led by the Freedom for All Americans Education Fund, the National Center for Transgender Equality, the Movement Advancement Project, and Equality Ohio, with support from the Equality Federation and the National Center for Lesbian Rights.

‘Star Trek’ Defends Gay Sulu: ‘We Are All LGBT’
In a statement to The Guardian, writer Simon Pegg said that it’s time for Star Trek Beyond to boldly go where no blockbuster has gone before.

This Straight Guy Is One Of The Most Successful Webcam Models Out There. Here’s Why.
“Within seconds he transforms himself from a self-conscious straight nerd into a gay man’s fantasy.”
That’s a line culled from “How to Be a Cam Boy,” a profile by Angelina Chapin for MEL magazine that takes a long look at the life of “Brett,” a 25-year-old webcam model who, for now at least, is making a very solid living performing various sex acts in front of his Macbook for an ever-growing fanbase of lonely sadsturbators.

To prepare for a session, Brett aggressively washes his tiny militia of dildos in the sink, pouring rubbing alcohol on them “to protect his tools from E.coli and other bacteria.”
Things don’t necessarily get more glamorous from there. Here’s a slice of Brett’s life as a webcam model on Chaturbate, where he’s apparently “one of the most popular male cammers”:
At 7:40 p.m., Brett switches on the camera clipped to his laptop and gets on all fours atop a turquoise yoga mat in the narrow space between the bed and the wall. He shakes his ass in front of the computer as fans begin to populate his channel?—?about 25 at first but quickly growing to 400 strong.
For exhibitionist homebodies, webcam modeling can be surprisingly lucrative. Brett claims he makes roughly $1,500 a week for less than 10 hours of work. That’s a great deal more than he was making at his previous job as a server at T.G.I. Fridays.

One of the most interesting aspects of his story? His mom — who he describes as “open-minded” — is the one who recommended he get into the business.
“She was like, ‘You have a good body,’” he says. “‘You should look into being a stripper.’”
The secret of his success? He artlessly describes his ass as the “golden ticket.”
“I have a big butt for a white guy,” he says, “and that got me popular [fast]. But what kept me popular was having a good personality. I give 100 percent and do a lot in my show.”
Despite his line of work, Brett suffers from crippling social anxiety.
“I didn’t have a lot of friends growing up,” he admits, “and I always thought it had to be because of my looks. I’m a nice guy and I’m generous so I thought people probably didn’t want to be my friend because I must be ugly.”
Here’s how the article describes Brett’s performance:
Brett kneels on the yoga mat with his legs spread apart and alternates bouncing his ass cheeks like they’re being pulled by invisible marionette strings. His ass is big, like two soccer balls, and it turns the color of overripe peaches when he slaps it?—?which he does frequently. He gets on all fours and jiggles his butt like an excited puppy.
The performer has roughly 12 regular customers who tip big, spending between $50 and $500 for a show. Of course, some of his fans can be “creepy.” One unnerving customer throws down $400 to watch Brett spank himself with a paddle.
“He scares me a little bit,” he says. “He found out I live in New Jersey and… wants to tie me up. He does have this whole fantasy I will meet him.”
Sex toys figure prominently into his neo-burlesque:
As soon as 50 fans are in his room, Brett gets down to the main event: performing with a hot pink OhMiBod sex toy that connects to the Chaturbate interface through USB and vibrates with every token. The bigger the tip, the bigger the buzz. One hundred tokens and under feels like an intense tickle; 500 tokens and under feels like a strong wave; more than 1,000 tokens feels like an electric shock.
He says the job makes it difficult to date.
“It’s a rare thing for a girl to appreciate what I do. Even though I say I’m a personal trainer, it’s hard to relate to people who have regular jobs and stuff….I’m more comfortable with the people on Chaturbate than I am with most people in real life. Not much is going to faze them.”
