Daily SexPress: Alligator Frenzy ~ Blockbuster Fails ~ Chord Overstreet ~ RU-429? ~ Which Hunk?

Alligator Feeding Frenzy In Georgia

The Okefenokee Swamp at Stephen C. Foster State Park in southern Georgia, is the site of the latest reported alligator feeding frenzy. Approximately 300 alligators cooperatively hunted in a narrow canal while boaters looked on. Is it an odd occurrence, or a normal phenomenon? CNN reports that a boater at Stephen C. Foster State Park shot some astounding video footage of an apparent alligator feeding frenzy at Okefenokee Swamp. Roughly 300 alligators cooperated to catch a large population of mudfish. In spite of the huge number of feeding alligators, the boaters nevertheless went onto the water. Wildlife officials at the state park state that "the waters are safe for boaters." Odd Occurrence at Stephen C. Foster State Park? It is worthwhile to remember that the 402,000 acres of Stephen C. Foster State Park are home to about 12,000 alligators. Park officials warn that pets are forbidden to ride in boats, and children should stay away from the water's edge to avoid alligator attacks. Where this many alligators live, it should not be surprising to see some of them. Are 300 at one time in the same vicinity, therefore, unusual?

What I'll Miss About Blockbuster

The chain's demise is now nearly certain, but one film lover explains why that isn't all good news. It's too soon to call it an end of an era, but Blockbuster Video's troubles make it tempting. Between the company's presence on a Wall St. 24/7 List of "10 Brands That May Disappear in 2011" and the company's bizarre de-listing from the New York Stock Exchange this week (based on internal shenanigans that shareholders are trying to get to the bottom of), the company has what one might call a Wall Street image problem. And that's on top of the other, more general, more daunting problem it's been coping with for about five years now, which we've written about before and will call, for lack of a nicer phrase, The Stench of Death. As in:

Gorgeous Chord Overstreet

Less than 24 hours after Ryan Murphy announced to a Comic-Con audience that Glee will be tackling the first ever Prom King & King relationship on television next season, it seems that the Fox series may have finally cast Kurt’s boyfriend, 21 year old - Chord Overstreet from Nashville, Tennessee will be playing Kurt’s better half.

Ru429?

429 isn't a belated "time to light up a joint" call - it comes from the use of a phone’s keypad to spell out the word ‘gay’. You can read it as: 4-2-9 spells G-A-Y, now text that to your "st8" friends and see the response. (Editor's Note: GorgeousBoys is not liable for you getting a blackeye and or blocked)

Which '90210' Hunk Turns Out to Be Gay?

Earlier this summer, The CW announced that on the new season of 90210 it would be revealed that one of its three leading men would be gay: The three in question are Liam (Matt Lanter), Navid (Michael Steger) and Teddy (Trevor Donovan). Now Entertainment Tonight  talks to two of the guys to get their take. "It is going to happen," Trevor tells ET, at the same time denying that he knows which of the hotties it is going to be. "I would be flattered if [it was me]. What a great chance to use your acting chops a little bit to dive into a different kind of character. That is why we do this." Michael adds, "They are approaching it with respect. I know Adrianna (Jessica Lowndes) had an experimentation phase last year, but this year they are going to go the full arc and take it seriously. Not that they weren't last year, but it is going to be a shock."

New Club Heats Up Nashville's Gay Scene (Strippers Wanted)

alexYoungbloodA 3-by-6 foot painting of a nude woman hangs in the office of the old Ken's Gold Club. But that's the only naked female flesh that remains in the strip club.  Now called Arrow Nashville, the spot at 5th Avenue and Peabody is Tennessee's only destination to see male strippers bare it all, and the bar's co-owner and manager Cole Wakefield expects to draw male and female patrons from across Tennessee and its neighboring states.
"There's nothing to compare Arrow to except a bar that's four hours away and has different rules," Wakefield said. "We're offering something unique to people in a wide area surrounding Nashville and Tennessee."
A $10 or $20 cover, depending on the time of arrival, gets guests in the door where they can watch a variety of men dance on stage and spin around a pole in various stages of undress. Like other sexually oriented businesses, Arrow is not permitted to sell liquor, but guests are allowed to bring in their own alcohol and purchase mixers at the bar. Wakefield said Arrow will offer access to a V.I.P. area later this month. The cost of the exclusive area has not been set, but it will offer free mixers and a cozier atmosphere to watch dancers - but patrons shouldn't expect to bend any rules in the more private area of the club.
"We're working to take the sleaze element sometimes associated with strip clubs out of it," Wakefield said. "This is a lounge where people happen to be stripping. The rules are the rules, and we're going to follow them."
dancebarWakefied and the bar's other owners acquired the building from the owner of Ken's Gold Club in July and quickly went to work to make necessary renovations to the space. Those include updating a barrier to keep patrons three feet away from the stage, replacing a gold pole with a chrome one, redecorating the showroom and V.I.P. area and updating the bathrooms. Arrow inherited many of Ken's "1850's Southern parlor-esque" fixtures including chandeliers, chairs and ornately framed mirrors, all of which have been repurposed. But, Wakefield said that's all he hopes to inherit from his predecessor.  Ken's owners and some dancers had been slapped with several fines for violating strict skin-industry rules set by Metro Council and enforced by the Sexually Oriented Business (SOB) board.

Last September, Ken's became the first adult business in Nashville to have it's operating license revoked by the SOB board. The board cited 28 violations of the SOB code, including “grinding lap dances” and “strippers fondling their genitalia on stage,” according to Metro police spokesman Don Aaron. The same rules apply for male and female strippers. Patrons are not allowed to touch or come within three feet of a naked dancer - tips must be dropped at their feet. "Grinding" lap dances are not permitted. There must be seating for at least 10 people in all private or V.I.P. rooms, and the list goes on. But, Wakefield said the rules don't necessarily spoil the fun.  For example, "hovering" lap dances are allowed as long as the dancers aren't completely nude and they don't gyrate on patrons. And, dancers are allowed to perform to less than ten people in V.I.P. areas as long as there is seating enough for ten. Wakefield said the 3-foot rule might take away some of what people expect from a strip club, but it also may enhance the experience in other ways.
"One of our dancers likes to pull open his underwear and encourage the audience to shoot their dollars into his drawers," Wakefield said. "While you might not get to touch the dancers on stage they can still come out and say hello after their strip tease. The sensuality and sexuality is still there."
Wakefield said nearly 600 people attended the bar's soft opening in mid-August. From there, the staff focused on working out kinks in preparation for their grand opening on Labor Day Weekend.   arrow-nashvilleArrow's staff is focused on making constant improvements to keep satisfied customers like McQuiston coming back for more. Wakefield plans to bring a stage manager onto Arrow's roster to train the dancers in special techniques, choreograph special group routines and manage the club's costume inventory.
"Many of our dancers are first timers," Wakefield said. "We're going to train them all on the pole and give them all the techniques they need to wow the audience."
He said there are 21 fully-licensed dancers on staff who are evenly dispersed along the sexuality spectrum from straight to open-minded to gay. With gay men and straight women in the audience at the same time, the sexual ambiguity of the dancers works, Wakefield said.
"Everybody gets what it is," Wakefield said. "The dancers are here to entertain. Nobody's coming here to meet their husband, so the sexuality of the dancers isn't important."
Early crowd favorites include Alex, a veteran dancer who is accustomed to performing at bachelorette parties. Antonio, one of the youngest dancers, is favored for his crisp dance moves and lively costumes. Silent J. lures in spectators with his mysterious demeanor, curly dark hair, beard and big blue eyes and Soldja Boy, a former soldier, is an easy sell with a tall, lean build, blond hair and army fatigues. Wakefield said customers can expect special discounts and promotions to be a regular feature of the bar in the future as well as new stage props which might include a rope and nets. So far, he has seen a 60/40 ratio of male to female patrons at the bar and hopes to maintain an even-keeled following.
"So far we've been marketing mostly toward the gay community," Wakefield said. "It'll be interesting to see how things shake down as we broaden that effort."

Anti-Gay Hotel Shuts Doors

hotelA hotel near Brentwood, Tennessee has abruptly closed after being sold at auction for $9 million. Employees and guests at the Holiday Inn on Old Hickory Boulevard, near Franklin Pike Circle, were kicked out on Thursday. The hotel’s new owner is Matrix Hospitality Group in New Orleans. The hotel was owned by Tarun Surti, who recently lost a discrimination lawsuit that alleged that he’d fired employees because they were gay. Those workers were awarded $2 million in damages but have yet to collect any money. The Holiday Inn was sold at auction on May 29 in Nashville. Read the full story from the Tennessean.

This is me

kameron-scottI felt a little compelled to write this after going back and forth with someone namde Rob on several other posts here on the site. He said that Kurt Wild is married and has a family. I responded that he has no clue the type of life I live, so I've decided to give you all the run down on what exactly I'm doing right now.

December 6th, 2008, I was living in Fort Lauderdale. I had appeared in the closing performence of Charles Busch's 'Psycho Beach Party' at the ARTSERVE Theatre along side of Matthew Rush and former National entertainer of the year Daisey Deadpettles. On the 7th, I packed my bags and left Florida behind for Music City USA, Nashville, Tennessee. I've been here ever since and have yet to return to Florida.

Don't get me wrong, I loved South Florida. There is no place on earth like it. I miss all my friends and the places down there. But I got so caught up in the entire "scene" down there. I lost sight of the things that were really important to me. I had lived in Nashville before I moved to Florida over a year ago. So, it was an easy choice when I needed somewhere to go. I made several trips to Nashville starting in October to look for a place to stay. I actually met someone while I was here, but I was torn between him and my boyfriend that I had in Florida.

Back in Florida, I continued to work in the funtabulous world of porn, all the while thinking about being somewhere else. Instead of leaving my heart in San Francisco, I left it in Nashville. If anyone writes a song like that I'm claiming I had the idea. I couldn't think straight and there were times when I wouldn't leave the house. I'm so glad I was cast for that play because I needed something to get my mind off of things. Is it bad I can quote that entire script and I use lines from it in my everyday life?

I visited Nashville a few more times before I officially moved here. That time I spent going back and forth only solidified my love for the man in Tenessee. I missed him while I was gone, and never wanted to let go while I was there. I will say, I untimately moved there for him.

We live with two other roommates in his house that he built. It's a nice place in east Nashville, just a few miles from downtown. After getting here, I sat down with my partner and had a serious conversation about my career choice. And even though I thought the day would never come, I gave up porn for him. I did it to make our lives together happier and healthier. I don't miss it that much. Only draw back is NO ONE in this city is hiring. I've had to resort to being a web cam model for my good friend Ricky Sinz. I'm making enough money for myself. I'm blessed to have met a person that has a six figure job that wants to share his blessings in life with me. I'm not here for his money, I didn't even know what he made until we talked about me quitting porn. Regardless, I still like to pay my way in life. As I've said before, no one has given me anything, and I'm not about to start letting that happen.

I'm happy here, aside for the single digit temperatures. I can honestly say that I wouldn't want to be anywhere else in the world right now...maybe in some country on the Equator lol.

Fired For Being Gay

Employee Says He Was Fired For Being Gay. A man said he was fired from his hotel job for his sexual orientation and claims the owner who let him go dared him to sue. This happened in Brentwood, Tennessee one of the many burbs of Nashville, Tennessee.

18442307_200x150David Hill is looking for a new job after he said he was fired Tuesday from a former Brentwood Holiday Inn, which now goes by the name Artee Hotel. Employee Says He Was Fired For Being Gay

"They literally said to me because of my orientation and my alternative lifestyle, that I was not a fit worker for the hotel,"

Hill said he used to be the human resources director and is shocked at the owner's decision to dismiss him because of his sexual preference.

 "The owner (Tarun Surti) said, 'I don't give a damn. They can sue me. I will not have any of the gays in leadership roles in my hotel.' And that's a quote," said Hill.

Leonard Stoddard, the Assistant General Manager at the hotel made a comment. He said Hill was fired because "he was gay." He said he was also the one who had to tell Hill that he was being removed from his position. "The owner, Mr. Surti, comes from a culture that is not very tolerant to the gay lifestyle, and therefore he felt it necessary to have him removed from the workforce at the property," said Stoddard.

"(He was fired) strictly because of his sexual orientation?” asked a local television news reporter. "I do believe that's a very fair assumption," asked Stoddard. "Did you agree with his decision?" asked the reporter. "I did not," said Stoddard. "It is in our employee handbook that no one should be discriminated against, harassed verbally, physically or any other means for their sexuality, their sexual orientation, gender, race or anything of that sort." Hill said he plans on taking legal action and he has already filed a complaint with the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission and the Department of Labor. The hotel is privately owned and not part of the Holiday Inn chain.
