Totally agree with every word (oh my :lol:) :)
Was it necessary to speculate on homophobic theme for him? He sounded paranoic.
The question was "A lot of gays visit Eurovision. Aren't you afraid that they can flirt with you?" Was it necessary to give such answer? Methinks not.

Haha well it's not the first time we agree on things?? ;)

I mean he is kinda deluded because what's most funny is that I bet most of the interviewers from different ESC-pages are gay indeed.

Either he doesn't understand that, or he is acting all friendly just for the sake of promo. But then again why would he say such a thing then? But it was for Russian press? Then maybe he believe we still live in some middle-age where information won't be spread internationally, well sorry for him that's not how it works!

That!

I don't believe that he's a homophobe but it wasn't nice.
Coincidence or not but his gf has a former bf who's an openly homophobe musician who even sang about "fags". Once again imo her former bf did it just for promo.
I just feel sick when homophobia can be used for promo :?

But why would he promote himself acting like a homophobe? Is that really gonna make him more popular in Russia after ESC? I mean I know acting pro-gay would maybe hurt his future career, but why would acting homophobic help him? Atleast I don't see it helping him in ESC.

It's not a promotional thing.
I completely understand why you all feel bad about this comment, but I should say that it is a common thing in Russia. You may not know but in The Penal Code of the USSR was an article stating that "being gay is a felony". People were sent to prison for that. So the whole generations of Soviet people were brought up with this attitude to gay people.
About Alexey's comment: I'm not sure if it is real or fake. The tabloid that published this "interview" (including the discussed statement and comments about his gf's ass) is definitely unreliable. After he was chosen as a representative from our country, there have been so many fake interviews and gossips in the Internet and newspapers, you can't even imagine.

^ actually it is reliable and I know them ;) Though of course there's a chance that it's fake.
Even though usually journalists do not fake so big interviews and do not mention pr managers ;)

Sadly this is promotional thing so homophobic people could see that he's a part of them.
Tbh I didn't expect that. That newspaper has no moral at all, it's not a secret, but this is the fact that they publish real interviews and even publish audio materials if it's recorded on audio.

Sorry but when was Ricky Martin ever macho? :lol:

People speculated he was gay for a long time till he finally came out.

I don't think Alex is gay what so ever, but if he was smart he shouldn't have said anything. I mean I understand the problem he could get with his popularity in Russia after ESC if he was acting pro-gays, but he could have just stayed neutral on the issue.

Wasan't an speculation for long time, he had many girlfriends and was the god's favorite Latin girls, and the fact that he stayed alone for a long time was staret the speculation about their sexuality.:twisted:

Whatever was daub already :lol::lol:

all this staff that he said reminded me one Russian program - Реальные пацаны. :) Do you know it Aleks? He speaks as a dude from the Russian province, not as someone who really wants to be famous.
He definitely isn't a gentleman :lol:

lol, Deese, he's a poser.


and in order to break Adam's fantasies finally (sry :*) ):

The t-shirt says: "Be careful. I'm straight!"

Also he said in another interview that those girls from his "naked" photoshoot (with a soccer ball) are porn actresses.
He also said that Lazarev and Bilan are gays (not something new tbh).

Yeap, I see it is written on his shirt. When someone repeats again and again that he is straight that is at least suspicious.

Bilan is gay, everybody knows it :)
But isn't Lazarev's girlfriend pregnant. :? As I know they are getting married soon. Oh, he is just trying to prove that he isn't gay either!?

^ Dima is gay yerr, but I respect him cuz he doesnt make such comments or homophobia (as far as I know) - he just keeps his feelings to himself which is fine :). Like you say though, if Sparrow keeps going about it over and over (including trying to out people) then it does make you wonder :?.

Anyway, Sparrow is a tw*t, hope he loses and doesnt even qualify :evil: :twisted:.

I just saw the discussion going on here. That dude has some serious issues with his self confidence. I hope he's gonna use this as a learning experience and to grow as a person.

:lol: for real?

People have speculated about Ricky Martin's sexuality for over a decade, how could you have missed that?

It was always obvious, there's nothing macho and never were about Ricky.

All Russia they know that they re Queery already xrofl3xrofl3
That's why I said "not something new tbh" :lol:

What bothers me, when he said that, he seemed like he's proud that he's "not like that", not gay. Personally I wouldn't care about someone's orientation, I'm not marrying him, lol. But hinting that some sexual preferences are better... :?

I agree with Matt. Self confidence issues and this is something that can hurt him. Straight guys can tolerate gays, they won't become worse because of that :lol:

I think from reading about this a few days ago, the intent behind the comment was for people to respect his space. I mean if he is a heterosexual man then he's perfectly justified in communicating that he would prefer that male fans who may happen to be homosexual, keep their distance.

I agree with that on 100%

That is my case. I am not a homophobe, but I need my space too :)
