Is Sports Illustrated Laughing With, Or At Carson Kressley’s U.S. Open Fashion Coverage?
—Dave Rubin, of Ben & Dave’s Six Pack, frowns on Sports Illustrated bringing in one-time Queer Eye Carson Kressley to discuss fashion at the U.S. Open [Rubinville]
Personally i find the whole idea ridiculous. The fashion coverage that is. This is a sporting event for godsakes, not a Hollywood red carpet event. Over half of those players just want to wear something practical and could care less about what Carson or any fashion ‘expert’ thinks.

The woman interviewing Venus after she won the other day asked her about her outfits. Apparently Venus designs a different one for each match. These players do happen to get paid money to wear tennis apparel so I think its fair game for the press to comment. The ESPN website periodically runs a column called UniWatch that just talks about sports uniforms too.

So it isn’t exploiting the stereotype of queeny gay guys being fashion experts when it is on Bravo’s Queer Eye but it is exploitation when it shows up in SI. Got it.
