  • QUEER OF THE YEAR: DAY 6 & 7

    Posted by


    Queer of the Year 2011 has been a whirlwind roller coaster of a week. From all the finalists laughing together having a great time, to storm outs and wishing someone would break their neck. Although generally the drama was avoided, the last few days did have their moments. From the Community Spirit challenge, the coronation ceremony and the big gay parade, everyone had a great time. But only one was crowned the winner… … More

But they got detailed instructions with the help from Grumman 78’s Gaelle and Marc. Who was named champion in the queerest Iron Chef competition? Watch the video, and read on to get all the dirty details…. … More

    The contestants were still in a relax-y coma when this challenge day began, because the night before they spent a taxing night at one of Montreal’s premier spas Bota Bota (spa on a boat, so nice they named it twice.) They needed the rest after their long Healthy Lifestyle challenge. Next was time to let their Personality shine! … More

    Fuel up on that green tea and strap on those Sketcher’s Shape-Ups because today’s challenge is all about Healthy Lifestyle! Last night they got to tone up a bit in preparation for the physical fitness aspect by dancing on a… pole? That’s right. They got a pole dancing fitness class. Clothes came off, arms got sore and some of the Queers may have discovered their future calling! Then again… maybe not…

  • FINALISTS FOR QUEER OF THE YEAR 2011 ANNOUNCED

    Posted by


    The battle for the Queer of the Year 2011 crown has already been a tumultuous one. 20 semi-finalists laughed, cried and answered some hard-hitting questions that not even Barbara Walters herself would dare ask. 14 were ruthlessly eliminated, making way for 6 finalists to begin cat fighting it out August 7 to 14 in Montreal! These are my personal thoughts on this crackerjack group of Queers… … More
