It’s been 21 years since Jim Verraros made TV history as the first contestant from the reality TV show American Idol to come out as gay. Although he wasn’t allowed to talk about his sexuality on the show, by coming out during the promotional tour he paved the way for other closeted gay entertainers to fearlessly be themselves.
People like Clay Aiken, David Archuleta and Adam Lambert and even Neil Patrick Harris and Lance Bass owe a lot to people like Jim Verraros.
Following his glow up on reality television, Jim became a queer comedy film regular with his appearances in the Eating Out and Another Gay Movie franchises, and even had a Billboard chart hit with his song "You Turn It On.”
Today Jim Verraros, star of American Idol and the Eating Out franchise joins us to celebrate his return to music with his playful new single “Take My Bow” which he lip synced on Instagram during his crossfit class.

How to Get into the Met Gala For Free
Another Met Gala has come and gone. The annual charity fundraiser for the Metropolitan Museum of Art's Costume Institute always draws the world’s attention as notable artists, entertainers and the wealthy elite parade in lavish and often ridiculous outfits.
Despite not being in attendance this year, Lady Gaga managed to be the top shared celebrity on the Internet for her Guggenheim Museum inspired dress. The catch? It was all done with AI, while Gaga probably stayed home nice and cozy in a bath full of bubbles and a dart board with Madonna’s face on it.
Today we take a look at all the wet and wild news stories, like Lady Gaga and Rhianna’s fake Met Gala gowns, and how Pride Celebrations this year are shrinking in New York and Chicago.

Ménage à How Many? - Tristan Taormino
It’s Lesbian Visibillity week, where we take a look at some of the most wonderful women who have shaped Feast of Fun over the course of 20 years.
Just like no two people are alike, the relationships we develop in our lives will also be incredibly unique.
Before open relationships became more acceptable in LGBTQ+ circles, sex-positive writer Tristan Taormino was helping pave the way for people to expand their minds to new kinds of relationships.
We spoke to Tristan in 2008 about her new book “Opening Up: A Guide to Creating and Sustaining Open Relationships” where she said a big factor in fufilling relationships was for people to defnine monogamy on their own terms, and that the best relationships complement each other instead of trying to meet each other halfway in everything.
Please enjoy this encore presentation of “Ménage à How Many?” with Tristan Taormino as part of our celebration of Lesbian Visibility Week and the design I made that became the modern lesbian pride flag.
