  • Five Gay Halloween Costume Ideas

    5 Halloween Party Outfits Inspired by Hollywood Movies for Gay Men

    © Steve Williams


    Gay Halloween Costume Idea 1 – Christian Bale's Batman

    Christian Bale has been a poster boy for straight women and gay men alike ever since his iconic performance in American Psycho, but it is his turn in the revived Batman franchise that makes an ideal gay Halloween costume idea. To recreate the Dark Knight look cheaply, items include:

    • A dark pair of fitted trousers.
    • A flowing black cape.
    • A black mask that fully covers the upper face as part of a skullcap with antenna like horns.
    • Finally, don't forget the bat signal, stuck on to the centre of Batman's chest!

    If part of a couple, a budding Batman might like to take his Robin along to the Halloween party too. In this instance, try the 1997 Batman and Robin film for inspiration which had suits with very chiseled physiques.

    Gay Halloween Costume Idea 2 – King Leonidas from 300

The gay interest film that took the world by storm, Brokeback Mountain gives an ideal opportunity for making a gay Halloween costume inexpensively for either a single man or a gay trick-or-treating couple, just don't forget to add some Wyoming drawl alongside this Halloween party outfit for that truly authentic feel. The items required include:

  • A cowboy hat. Ennis appears to favour a lighter cream hat whereas Jack, as a rodeo man, prefers a jet black one.
  • Plaid shirts. Ennis wears light blue or pale shirts whereas Jack is more adventurous with deeper colours such as greens and reds.
  • Scuffed cowboy boots are a must for the final touch to this gay cowboy Halloween costume.
  • A spear (blunted, of course).
  • A long red cloak.
  • A loin cloth if the wearer has the thighs for it. Otherwise, some tan coloured shorts are a good substitute.
  • A smattering of fake blood.

Gay Halloween Costume Idea 3 – Ennis and Jack from Brokeback Mountain

The gay interest film that took the world by storm, Brokeback Mountain gives an ideal opportunity for making a gay Halloween costume inexpensively for either a single man or a gay trick-or-treating couple, just don't forget to add some Wyoming drawl alongside this Halloween party outfit for that truly authentic feel. The items required include:

  • A cowboy hat. Ennis appears to favour a lighter cream hat whereas Jack, as a rodeo man, prefers a jet black one.
  • Plaid shirts. Ennis wears light blue or pale shirts whereas Jack is more adventurous with deeper colours such as greens and reds.
  • Scuffed cowboy boots are a must for the final touch to this gay cowboy Halloween costume.


Gay Halloween Costume Idea 4 – Dumbledore from the Harry Potter Series

After acclaimed writer J.K. Rowling announced that Dumbledore, headmaster of Hogwarts, was gay, the possibility of making a Dumbledore Halloween costume has become more enticing. For this master wizard a few key items to add that extra touch of magic to a Halloween party outfit are:

  • A long, flowing purple robe (or blue if going for the Michael Gambon version).
  • A pale golden wand.
  • A small pair of spectacles
  • Long white hair and an equally lengthy white beard.

Gay Halloween Costume Idea 5 – Sam and Frodo from The Lord of the Rings

Whilst not actually identified as gay characters, Sam and Frodo become very close throughout the course of The Lord of the Rings, leading some fans and scholars to speculate as to the nature of their relationship. A simple concept, the two hobbits make a great pairing for another gay Halloween party outfit idea. For this, the following items will be required:

  • Curly, shaggy looking wigs that hang loosely about the face.
  • White shirts.
  • Green or brown waistcoats.
  • Brown or black three-quarter-length trousers.
  • Large, bare feet (fake if genetics have not been forthcoming).

Gay Halloween Costume Ideas – The Spooky Fun Doesn't Stop Here

Whatever gay Halloween costume appeals, the above list of ideas shows that simple, iconic pieces are what dressing for Halloween parties is all about, so have fun and create more gay Halloween costume ideas using these suggestions as a starting point.

Hot 'n Spicy Kisses: John Lennon, Jerry Lee Lewis &  Feet


Il voulait que ses fesses nues prises.

J'ai commandé deux.

L'alcool, du tabac et du jambon, du bébé.

Même si vous transpirez, ne vous inquiétez pas, vous pouvez voir si je suis enceinte.

Je prends le contrôle des naissances de la Beatlemania.

The Beatles, danseuses brésiliennes, musiciens et autres choses sont toutes les explications nécessaires à la journée de Jerry Lee changé pour toujours.

Beatlemania est Universal Music, et la légende du rock Jerry Lee Lewis n'en croyait pas ses yeux.


Je vous remercie pour des groupes comme les Beatles.

"It Was Like My Piano ou de chantage, at-il dit.

Il embrassa mes pieds.

Je n'ai aucune idée de ce qu'il ferait à mon fils, Junior.

Il dit: «Papa, John Lennon?

Lennon a déclaré: "Oui, John Lennon l'angoisse, la baguette, la satisfaction, à la pénitence."

La star des Beatles est le tombeau de spermicides.

Walkabout en eau de rose.

John Lennon accéléré. Carte de crédit, Harrods, à minuit, et l'argent qu'il a caché - quelle honte pour tous les groupes comme les Fab Four leurs idoles menti

"Thésaurus Beatlemania. Je n'aime pas, mais après le baiser-up, les souvenirs sont privés, dit Lewis.

Ce serait ... C'est embarrassant ...

Etait-ce papa?

John Lennon?

LENNON!

Love Power, oi.

John Lennon.

Lennon et goulasch, vous savez. "

L'homme qui a rendu possible pour moi de jouer rock roll.

Si mon corps avaient été gelés parce que nous ne boivent jamais, yo, viticulteur dans le soleil.

Il est patient et il a dit: Je voulais juste que vous sachiez que vous êtes un homme, je suis un homme, mais ensemble, nous sommes des femmes.

Ne comprenez-vous?

Qui ont rendu possible pour moi?

Tu.

Rock-un garçon.

Non Jerry Lee Lewis, mais le caractère festif.

Shake pour l'Hôtel Royal.

Palm sur mon visage, il était humide ...

Lennon.

LENNON embrassé Jerry Lee.

Lewis étourdis John Lennon.

Star s'agenouilla et lui baisa les pieds de Légende.

Lennon a envoyé son piano à Schoo, y compris Lewis, qui est crédité lors de leur rencontre derrière des lieux emblématiques tels que des concerts par Roxy Music et des Beatles.

Lewis: Remember The Kiss?

Je n'ai aucune idée.

Que ferait-il si mon fils n'était pas là.

"Papa, qui va aider?"

«Papa, John Lennon a été ... petite?" "Oui, John Lennon a été ... Lennon était malade, et il ... Je veux juste que vous sachiez que vous êtes l'homme qui a rock star.

Je n'aurais pas pu le faire sans votre exemple.

Chris Brown Tries To “Crawl” Back Into The Spotlight Again | Online | Mediaite

Chris Brown Tries To “Crawl” Back Into The Spotlight Again


brown_10-21Chris Brown has a new single out today, “Crawl,” which vaguely touches on his abuse of his ex-girlfriend, Rihanna. So today he’s out making the media rounds, in an interview with Angie Martinez on New York radio station Hot 97.

In much the same way his August Larry King interview didn’t help his reputation, this one isn’t going to do much for him either.

Here’s the first part of the interview, which Hot97.com has done a great job posting in near real-time.

“I feel like I would never have had to have this kind of interview with you,” said Martinez at the beginning. “How should we feel about you? Should we not be mad at you? Why shouldn’t we be?”

“It’s not really a thing of like, how you should feel, I feel like you should just be human, because at the end of the day I’m human,” Brown said. Well – it’s not much of an apology (he got to that a little later), but it sets the stage for his line of crisis control.

Martinez asked if anyone every told him he should never hit a woman:

Martinez: Did anybody tell you that?
Brown: Of course! (pause) It just went bad.
M: How does your family feel about what happened?
B: My dad, he was disappointed in me, but at the end of the day he wanted to make sure he stuck by my side.

Some other quotes:
• “In one moment everybody loves you and in the next they turn their back on you.”

• “I know ya’ll seen me on Larry King and everything with the bowtie…I know everybody wanted to know, and everybody’s still trying to know, what it was, but out of respect for me and my privacy and her definitely, I don’t really talk about it and I don’t want to get into it.”

And how’s this for an apology-
• “At the end of the day I’m sorry for what I did, whatever it is, but only Shorty and me know what it was, what happened in the car.”

For what it’s worth, it sounded much worse on the radio than in print. To top off all the poor PR surrounding Brown’s redemptive push, his single, out today, upstaged Rihanna’s new single, which debuted yesterday.

It’s not an easy road back for Brown – there’s very little he can say to make people feel like it’s time to move on and appreciate his music again. But this seems like, once again, the wrong way to go.

Jane Aldridge of Sea of Shoes - NEVER CEASING TO BE AMAZING - 25 Need-To-Know Bloggers | Online | Mediaite

Niche Experts

Jane Aldridge of Sea of Shoes
janealdridge

There is nothing the internet loves like precocity. The young — with their technological precision like second nature — are gawker at, admired and admonished in equal parts for their willingness to immerse themselves in a virtual world and overshare without a second thought. They captivate their peers and parents alike with diary-style prose and self-portraits while shrugging off any concerns for privacy or the death of introspection. On immaculate display as a pinnacle of online excess and cult appeal is teenage fashion blogger Jane Aldridge, the proprietor of Sea of Shoes.

Shy of her 2010 high school graduation, Alridge fields tens of thousands of hits per day on her one-girl shoe blog, featuring well-lit digital photos of herself adorned in the latest designer or thrifted threads with a focus on footwear. With a seemingly endless clothing budget, Aldridge embodies an aspirational fashion fantasy without pretension or condescension, favoring an “aw shucks” grin to a cold model’s stare. It’s voyeurism that doesn’t inspire intense jealousy and has resulted in numerous mentions in Teen Vogue, a fan letter from Kanye West and even her own shoe line, J. Aldridge by Sea of Shoes for Urban Outfitters.

In addition to wisdom and style beyond her years, Aldridge works another online inclination in her own favor: the fetishization of “The Real America.” Given that so much of blogging royalty is based in urban centers, especially New York City, there’s an insatiable longing for simplicity and an endless fascination with pastoral landscapes, especially in photo blogs. Aldridge lives in Texas, about an hour outside of Dallas, and her cosmopolitan sensibility — sparkling diamonds and leather boots — surrounded by foliage or dirt is an unassailable aesthetic online. But she’s too sweet to be contrived and too passionate to be mocked. And, oh yeah, she called her school’s heel height policy her “Waterloo.”

When Gourmet folded, Christopher Kimball, the publisher of Cook’s Illustrated, opined in a New York Times op-ed that “in a click-or-die advertising marketplace, one ruled by a million instant pundits, where an anonymous Twitter comment might be seen to pack more resonance and useful content than an article that reflects a lifetime of experience, experts are not created from the top down but from the bottom up.” Pastry chef David Lebovitz, who contributed to Gourmet a few times but is better known for his top-notch blog, proves that sometimes, the ground up gets it right.

The aptly named davidlebovitz.com is an old-fashioned personal blog that isn’t an old-fashioned personal blog. It devotes a lot of virtual ink to idiosyncrasy and reminiscence, much of it focused on Lebovitz’s experience as an American expat living in Paris, but in the midst of all that it’s about as good a food blog as you can find. It strikes the sweet balance between recipes (Breton buckwheat dumplings; idiot-proof chocolate cake), advice (how to prepare shelling beans) and food porn (mmm…burger). And the expert is rewarded by the instant pundits; even though it’s a one-man show, it gets comparable traffic to Eater and half as much traffic as gourmet.com and bonappetit.com.

Lebovitz also has a delightful Twitter feed. Sample Tweets: “wouldn’t it be great if OXO designed a bed?” “@divinacucina Maybe with the prize money Obama can buy some cooler jeans?”

Eskay of Nah Right

eskay

Over time, the writing of bloggers has delineated itself as a wholly unique style. Newspaper journalists, magazine writers, and amateur writers have all adapted to making content for the web. But what about the blogger as curator, forgoing original written words altogether? Such is the role of many of the internet’s primary tastemakers from fashion (see Jane Aldridge, below) to technology (see Jason Kottke, above). Carefully selecting links to worthy content elsewhere has become a niche of its own. For efficient tastemaking, acknowledgment is often enough and analysis or comment often distracts from work that could otherwise speak for itself.

Eskay, the pseudonym-cloaked rap blogger responsible for Nah Right, is one of the foremost examples of an online curator with king-sized influence. Despite all of the niche music blogs covering genres from Baltimore club to Brazilian favela funk, despite of the sway held by bastions of the indie rock internet like Pitchfork or Stereogum, the blog circuit has rendered the rap landscape almost unrecognizable. Nah Right, in particular — with its simple photo-plus-mp3 template and free-for-all, off-topic comments section — has made and mocked stars with seismic sway. As the defacto head of a rap blog conglomerate, New Music Cartel, eskay originally ran the show solo based only on his personal taste, but now he commands a small army.

The jewels of the major labels over the last two decades — even rapper behemoths like 50 Cent and Jay-Z  – are now subject to the whims of a former graffiti artist from Staten Island. And we’re all the better for it.


Fred Wilson of A VC

Somewhere behind the scenes, money makes the internet run. Those front and center in technology can often be mistaken for the ones who make things go, but there’s almost always another level of power — someone in the background pulling strings and putting up dollars. And then there’s Fred Wilson, who’s both.

As an eminent venture capitalist and principal of Union Square Ventures, Wilson has an immense understanding of technology investment. Luckily, he’s willing to share. A VC is Wilson’s relatively lo-fi blog, featuring, quite simply, “Musings of a VC in NYC.” But it’s not his Wharton MBA or twenty-plus years experience that fortify his online presence; it’s his humble ability to translate the market into terms we can all understand. He started in the mid-90s with investments in Alacra and Geocities, and now has his hand in numerous buzzy projects including Etsy, del.icio.us and Outside.in. He’s consistently insightful and though he has a reverence for big powers like Google and Apple, his good name comes from surviving failure and transcending the web 1.0 and 2.0. The Silicon Alley Insider put him at the top of their SA100 for 2008, but by now everyone — even outside of the techy fishbowl — should take notice if they care about the future of their beloved internet. Start by following Wilson on Twitter.

Ray Wert of Jalopnik

After a career in politics (including a stint as a campaign organizer for John Kerry), Ray Wert was tapped to run the automotive blog of record, Gawker’s Jalopnik. While Wert may fly under the radar at Gawker Media — the car beat doesn’t get the recognition of the flagship site, Jezebel, or Deadspin — but as the editor in chief, he has as much attitude as anyone there and might actually be their biggest hotshot. Along with being quoted often in the New York Times and regular television appearances, Wert also helped to convince General Motors to hold a full-on car race complete with its own website. And Jalopnik’s name for the Big Three implosion — Carpocalypse — was officially inducted into the lexicon by the Times and credited to Jalopnik. That’s pretty official.

Jalopnik’s traffic spiked as the Big Three crumbled, but they’ve managed to maintain growth and are consistently duking it out with sister site Jezebel — both with visitor numbers and in the comments section. The site knows how to make waves with stunts like aforementioned GM race or taking an electric car to drive around an auto show in Detroit and it all happens under Wert’s watch. Jalopnik also has an aesthetic appeal even to those unfamiliar with the world of cars and they know how to please the outsiders: just check out the Megan Fox gallery, their gift to the world.

And he’s still man enough to pose like this.
