Conservative Conundrum...


This week, I checked out a few minutes of the season premiere of The Voice.  I don't tend to watch the show from beginning to end, but there have been some memorable performances in the audition and battle rounds.  New to the judging team this season are Queen Latifah and Riley Green.


As much as I like to think I'm current, I'd never seen, or even heard of country superstar Riley Green.  If I had, I know I would have remembered.   I'd have remembered, as he's incredibly hot.  It wasn't just his look, but the way he talked, walked and carried himself, literally sex on a long country stick.


Whenever I feature a celebrity on the site, I try to do a bit of research.  It's not that I wouldn't go ahead if there were some problematic issues, it's more that I would note them.  Now maybe I'm a little bias, but I tend to look a little more closely when it's a country music star.  It's not that all country music stars are conservative, many are not.  I also have great friends who are conservative and Republican, and try not to let politics get int he way.  I do have a line however with MAGA.  It's because I don't consider MAGA a political organization, they have little or no core values.  They've jumped on and used the Republican party as a starting point, but then to me, very quickly morphed into a racist hate group.


When I researched Green, it was difficult to tell where he stood politically.  Conservative and Republican most likely, but Green publicly states he's not political, and avoids making political statements.  That doesn't mean he is or is not something, but it did have me thinking.  There are traits to MAGA that I see in many of his followers, just look at the hate spued by Dean Cain, Roseanne and Patricia Heaton.

Sometimes celebrities surprise you, like Wayne Gretzky.  Maybe I shouldn't have been surprised, but I met Gretzky years ago when he did a charity event for an organization I worked for.  I remember his taking questions from the press, and came across as caring and broad-minded.  With Riley Green, I didn't pick up any MAGA vibes, just the opposite in fact.  Maybe I was too overcome by his hotness.  Time will tell, but I think I'll have to watch more of The Voice, for research purposes of course...

Role Play:


'You can't play Superman if you haven't gotten a little fruity.'


I can't take really take credit for this post, nor the theme that inspired it.  There has long been a connection between Sci Fi and fantasy films, superheroes and the LBGTQ community.  When the the most recent  James Gunn adaptation of Superman opened last month,  a thread was started on Pop & Hot Culture, a favorite Twitter page that I follow.
 
  Hoechlin & Dylan O'brien

The thread basically connected many of the actors who have played The Big Blue Boy Scout with their roles in gay films and television series.  Although countless actors have slid on the blue tights, there are about nine most closely connected to the role including; Kirk Alyn, George Reeves, Christopher Reeve, Dean Cain, Brandon Routh, Tom Welling, Henry Cavill, Tyler Hoechlin and David Corenswet.

Welling in Lucifer

Out of the nine listed above, four have played gay roles, and at least one or two others have been in projects with gay or homoerotic themes. Many, even without a gay role, have become gay icons.  Take a deeper dive into the Metropolis Marvels and their queer connections on the Next Two Pages, HERE: &  HERE:

The Kryptonian Queer Connection:


'Well, I've been up to bat twice, and twice I've caught you staring at my ass.'

I thought about leaving Dean Cain out of today's posts, but then decided against it.  Although he's Maga, and chomping at the bit to join ICE, he was a big part of my Superman education.  I used to love watching Lois & Clark on Sunday nights when I was a teenager and crushed over Cain as Superman. I loved his back and forth with Lois, (Teri Hatcher) and also thought Justin Whalin, (below) and Michael Landes were cute as Jimmy Olsen. 


I also had to include Cain as he appeared in one of the gayest projects of any Superman. 2000's The Broken Hearts Club focused on the turbulent lives and loves of a gay clique based in Los Angeles.  Cain was believable in his role, especially flirting with Timothy Olyphant.  It's hard to believe knowing who he is, and what he's become, he once starred in a film alongside gay icons like Billy Short, John Mahoney and Jennifer Coolidge.  


Hoechlin

I don't believe actor Tyler Hoechlin has played a gay character, but he's certainly been involved in several homoerotic scenes on screen.  For starters, there are almost too many to list just on the supernatural teen drama Teen Wolf. (below)  There was also the moment above in the 2018 film Bigger.


Routh

I have a soft spot for actor Brandon Routh who I think got the short end of the stick as Superman.  He was perfect to play the tight wearing hero and had a beautiful sincerity as Clark Kent.  Unfortunately the movie wasn't that great and Routh only got to wear the cape on the big screen the one time in 2006's Superman Returns.


It looked like we might not see Routh again, but he's since made a name for himself on the small screen. In 20212, Routh took a comedic turn playing Wyatt, the boyfriend of Michael Urie's high-strung character Louis on the CBS sit-com Partners.  Sadly, as appealing as the cast was, the show last just one season and 13 episodes.


On the big screen, Routh had a small role in the Kevin Smith comedy, Zack and Miri Make A Porno.  It was said to have been star Seth Rogen's idea to have Routh and Justin Long play a gay porn couple.

Corenswet

Our current big screen Superman, David Corenswet played gay, (or maybe bisexual) in Netflix's The Politician,  In the series, River, (Corenswet) has a romantic relationship with Payton Hobart, (Ben Platt(. River is portrayed as Payton's secret lover and political rival in the show.  Corenswet also had a few homoerotic scenes in Ryan Murphy's Hollywood.

Archives: Blast From The Past

Peter Barton

When I started FH, one of my goals was to only featured some of today's hottest and most talented hunks, but also feature men who impacted my, and others in the past.  So many sites are all about the men of the moment, the current and hottest bodies and moments.  As we all know however, it's hard to stay front burner for too long, at least not without burning out.


Blast From The Past began as my way of spotlighting some of the models, actors and singers who I grew u with.  It soon became so much more.   Although I had connections with many of the men that I featured, I also included actors who I discovered later in life.  There are many actors, who I either didn't like or didn't notice that I looked at differently when I got older.  


When I was a kid, I remember thinking that Tom Selleck was sort of 'gross'.  He seemed old, and I hated his moustache, and how hairy he was.  Then... when I hit my thirties, I started looking back on all those shirtless shots of Selleck with a different perspective...   There are also several classic stars from the 40's, 50's and 60's that I never heard of when I was a kid.  Thanks To TCM, I quickly began crushing over actors, many of whom are in their 80's, 90's or no longer with us at all.


This list includes most of those actors, performers, singers and models that I've blasted back to the past with.  I say most, as there are many former heart throbs who showed up in my birthdays or movie section that I have yet to include.  I hope to add them in once I have time to fully research the blog, but this list is a pretty good beginning.   Looking back at some of the posts, especially those from the site's early days, I realize many need an update.  Some were done before I had the ability to cap and create images on my own, and before learning how enlarge an image.  Hoping to update a few of my favorites soon.

Conservative Values

At one time or another, I was drawn to, and featured on the site all of the actors shown.  In some cases, I was aware of their politics, but as I stated above, up until the last four years, I really wasn't all that concerned about the politics of others.  I tend to care less about what a person thinks, and more about how a person treats those around them.  

The last four years have changed all that.  Given the hate and cruelty demonstrated by the current occupant in the White House,  I've lost respect for anyone who supports him.  I'm featuring the following actors (for the last time) here not because they support a party, but because they've all vocally supported a dictator who's hurt so many and damaged so much.   

Antonio Sabato Jr.

Despite his politics, Antonio Sabato Jr. has certainly not run from playing to the gay community when it comes to making a buck.  From soap stud to underwear model to playing gay on screen several times.  I'm not sure Sabato Jr came to his belief's late in life, or whether is career hypocrisy was always there.  Regardless, I enjoyed my days of lusting over Antonio, but like his career, it's over.


Testosterone (2003)

Scott Baio

I often wonder if when Scott Baio was posing shirtless for all those teen magazine pin-ups, whether he knew his fans were both teenage girls and gay men.  I suspect he did.  Despite some of the dumb things he's said on social media, he seems more angry than stupid.  He did (does) have quite a body, one I enjoyed up until the last few years.


Although it's not really that well known, Baio actually does have a 'nude scene'.  Don't get too excited, it's really one of the most frustrating scenes ever.  In 1987's I Love N.Y., Baio's character turns off all the lights  before getting out of bed.  Although it's almost pitch black, you can still see a hint of Baio butt, but really, it's not worth the effort. 


Kevin Sorbo

Actor Kevin Sorbo is a vocal Trump supporter, and one of those idiots who thinks mask wearing is a form of government control.  I don't think I've actually ever seen Sorbo on TV or in a movie, but I did at one time salivate over his hairy chest.  That has certainly dried up.


Hercules 

Dean Cain

When I was a teen, I watched Lois & Clark mostly for how adorable I thought Dean Cain was.  When I got older, and read some of his thoughts on line, the hero worship quickly died.  If there was any actor less worthy of the Superman tights and cape it's Mr. Cain.


One of the most jarring examples of Cain's hypocrisy is his taking on a gay role in 2001's The Broken Hearts Club.  This from an actor who went on to  participate in the Values Voters Summit run by the anti-LGBTQ Family Research Council....


Given how it's filmed, I'm guessing the butt shown in 2010's Bed & Breakfast isn't Cain's, but it's still the closest to a nude scene I think he's filmed.
