Where is the BOQB??? Not one person ripping NPH apart???? No one calling him names? (aside from comments about his tux, but queens are always going to find something to bitch about) Can it be that the community finally can recognize that one of our own finally broke the queer ceiling and can be 100% accepted by mainstream media and public? I wish every other queer in that audience last nite saw how NPH was able to be out and proud, sit next to his BF and basicaly not give two shits about what ANYONE thought and or said. And was a tremendous success. And wish they would take his lead and all begin stepping out of their closets....... WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON HERE???? Where is the BOQB???
