Butch Brokeback and the Sundance Mountain

When this Collector's Edition of Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid was released in 2006, it was almost as if the marketing department was trying to remind us of something.

More Oscars Hoyay (2006)

Hahahaha. Oh, Jon Stewart, how I love you.



The 'gay Westerns montage' was, of course, also a winner - especially the Charlton Heston/Gregory Peck clip.

Oscars Hoyay

At the 2007 Oscars, happily-boyfriended Devil Wears Prada co-stars Anne Hathaway and Emily Blunt make me wistfully imagine a world where out gay Hollywood starlets could bring their girlfriends to the Oscars.

Ballet Hoyay

Mikhail Baryshnikov and... actually, I'm not sure who the other guy is. But classical ballet, and dance in general, needs more male/male duets.

The Country Hoyay

It's actually Morgan Freeman and Frances McDormand, not Morgan Freeman and Peter Gallagher, who play an old married couple in the revival of Clifford Odets' The Country Girl currently showing on Broadway. (Gallagher plays a hotshot director trying to get Freeman's alcoholic actor back on stage). But, for whatever reason, New York Magazine decided to take a picture of Freeman and Gallagher apparently celebrating their 25th wedding anniversary. Hey, I'm not complaining. (Also cute is Gallagher's comment to Freeman in the accompanying interview: "Morgan and I just met, but I feel like I've known you forever.")

The Daily Hoyay Report

I know that Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert are both happily married heterosexuals in real life. But if they will insist on fake-kissing over a slice of pizza - complete with interlinked pinky fingers and "love is a many-splendoured thing" music playing in the background - then it seems to me they can only expect to wind up on a blog about hoyay:



Actually, the short and delectable Mr. Stewart is something of a one-man hoyay machine, as he can reliably be counted on to flirt with his male Daily Show guests. Then there was the time he showed up at Howard Stern's 'Gay Dance Party' back in 1998 in a marine outfit a la Tom Hanks in Philadelphia. Sadly the video of this Stern episode has been lost to posterity, but a few pictures are extant:



Any true fan of Stewart-Colbert hoyay knows that the best video capturing their fake news/fake love bond is this:



Then, of course, there's Stephen Colbert-Paul Dinello hoyay - but that's a whole other post.

Nip/Tuck Ho/Yay

Nip/Tuck as a show is too dark and disturbing for me, so I've had to follow the hoyaytastic exploits of Dr. Christian Troy and Dr. Sean McNamara - including Christian's "Am I a homosexual?" dream, pictured above - from a distance. If, like me, you don't watch the show, then this video posted on YouTube should help get you up to speed with their relationship:
