So Neil Patrick Harris was voted gay man of the decade by the readers of After Elton. The runner up was someone named John Barrowman, which, uh, I never heard of that person. Obviously the winner should have been TOOTHY TILE, but what do I know. (And also, I’m not saying I should have won, but I should have at least been nominated!)
Here’s what Dr. Howser has to say about his win…
@BC
you know the meaing of the word acerbic, you seem quite adept at being so and demonstrating it’s use as well LOL
By the way, I am not elitest, just well read, and well educated on many fronts. I can’t help it if I am interested in more than one thing!
Bmad, ignore the overly acerbic attitude of David.
It was not a personal attack on avid although he seems to have taken it as one and did personally attack Bmad. Chill David! 😉
Btw, I did a random sampling of people around here, and even though I know Barrowman because I watch alot of British tv. No one else did know him by name. Although a few knew of Jack Harkness his character in Torchwood. Just because you live and breathe musical theatre as much as, don’t assume that everyone else does please, it just makes us look like elitist bitches. It is not the way to to engender new people to something different. 😉
**Interesting tidbit, while JB was writing his autobiography with his sister, they spoke in a different accent, they both have american accents because they were raised mostly in the states, but for some reason developed the habit of speaking with accents when they talk to each other**
having been educated about this actor i just spent the better part of the last hour looking for that picture of his dick on a hotdog bun and came up empty. if anyone out there has it, i’d love it if you sent it to me! david, i don’t know why you think i think he’s “a tv show rather than a human being” cause i never said such a thing but no worries! naked pictures are always my top priority. photo pls!

Pierce_mn…. Thank you for further proving that John is not “obscure” as our moderator seems to think (although he sees it in the context of Barrowman as a tv show rather than a human being). It’s nice to see that there are a lot of others who know and/or are seemingly impressed with his work or willing to look for information about him rather than just admitting their stupidity ROFL.
John Barrowman had a small role as Cole Porter’s lover in that dreadful movie, It’s De-lovely. He is a very popular stage and film actor in Britain.
He appears, as reported, on Torchwood, but has appeared onstage in Anything Goes and most recently,
as Albin/Zaza in the revival of La Cage Aux Folles.
He was supposed to do the role on Broadway, but they’re importing the star of the London revival, whom Barrowman replaced, Danny Hodges.
If you ever read the British gay presses, Attitude or the Australian magazine, DNA, you’ll see that Barrowman is often written about.
Chuck, I’ve also seen a pic of him with his dick filling, and I mean FILLING, a hot dog bun.
Bmad… If we have, you must not have done a very remarkable job in the sack or I would have remembered. I prefer a man with intelligence humor and stamina. However, if you have ever slept with someone, I do feel bad for the one person you probably slept with (Slept being the operative word here). Now it would seem that your humor and moderating skills lack as much as your bedroom skills? It would appear that you are now 0 for 3.
In his autobiography, John Barrowman wrote about playing the piano with his penis on stage when he was costarring in “Sunset Blvd.”
david, have we slept together?
Bmad… you may as well stop trying to be funny, you never have been. John Barrowman is an ACTOR and SINGER. He is a human so, therefore, can’t be an obscure cable show. Expand your horizons. Take off your blinders and learn about something before commenting on it. I don’t usually leave comments on blogs or websites, but I can’t keep my mouth shut any more about the lack of humor you think you display on this site since you’ve taken over. I’d rather you just make a post without comments. It would serve you much better to do so. JARED. Thanks for trying to help educate our poor moderator.

Bmad- Gotta LOVE your comment! 🙂
Yes, you’re right David, not knowing actors from obscure cable shows is always the mark of true stupidity.
The url I posted is a little more information for John Barrowman, so you will be able to educate yourself a little more. I hate to burst your bubble, but NPH does not deserve Gay of the Decade. What the hell has he done for the community besides come out and wear lipstick on a magazine cover. If you are a gay man who likes sci-fi, then you need to check out Torchwood! On there, Captain Jack (John Barrowman) and Ianto Jones (Gareth David-Lloyd) share a very special and very open relationship. Jack is omnisexual and Ianto identifies as straight, but is in love with Jack. John has been openly gay for years, has a boyfriend, and has appeared at many gay pride events. Now THAT deserves to be awarded!
How old are you, moderator? John Barrowman is one of the hottest men around. You don’t know who he is and obviously don’t know how to google him to find out? You show your stupidity more and more every day. This site has gone WAY downhill since you took over.

… give me a d, give me an i, give me a scrimination!
John Barrowman is famous for his Doctor Who/Torchwood character, the omnisexual Captain Jack Harkness. It makes sense that he’d be on the list, given the name of the site. That being said, I’m glad NPH won, he’s a cutie.
