Perez Part of Mika's PR Team?
His Suspicious Silence on Silent Star

mikaperez.jpg
Gay gossip monger Perez Hilton has been called out for calling gay celebs out of the closet - most notably Lance Bass and Neil Patrick Harris - but now he's being called out for not calling someone out: Mika.

Hilton recently introduced the sexually mum British pop star at a Time Warner Center in-store show and the boys at AfterElton wonder why he's become some chummy with someone that should, ideologically speaking, be his enemy:

Those of us who have been following Mika's Stateside invasion have noticed that Perez has been oddly prominent at the early appearances of this particular musician. Odd, in that Hilton isn't a music critic and doesn't run a music site - he's a gossip writer who has made his politics crystal clear when it comes to celebrities whose sexualities fall under public scrutiny... How interesting, then, that Hilton is now an honorary member of the PR posse of a man who flat-out refuses to discuss his sexuality publicly. Isn't Mika exactly the kind of celeb that Perez would usually attack for his coyness? Could it be that Hilton has compromised his well-documented principles for the chance to be part of an album launch and for a place in the pocket of a pop star?
Is there something rotten in the state of Gayville?

We have to say, however, that picture of Mika and Hilton's kind of cute. Mostly Mika, of course. Speaking of photos, Mika apparently showed up late to the TW gig - he got tied up at an Out shoot. Something to look forward to...

I know I'm old, cranky, and fat; however, I'm not sure why this is even important.

1 Must we hear about Perez again? the last months have been great without his gossip hate mongering being debated. we already know there is nothing such as ethics for him, so why bother.

2 I hope afterelton are not regretting that every closeted gay men isn't publicly harassed for not discussing their sexuality? cause there are people in our government who are working overtime to harm us, and they deserve closer scrutiny than Mika and his not-so-secret gay life.

Pez head Hilton is just a chum-scavenging bottom feeder who'd sell his own balls for a photo op with stardom. What a pathetic cunt.

Not that I particularly care, but maybe it's just that obvious that Mika is a complete flamer (I just watched a few of his videos to see what he's all about), that Perez doesn't view him as being 'in the closet.'

Can I just say he sounds exactly like Freddie Mercury? It's kind of creepy.

OH, let's not forget...he looks like the result of Pink blowing chunks after a binge weekend.

This is not news, Perez has picked and chosen who to out since day one. There's no difference in the way Mika and Clay Aiken handle public discussion of their sexuality, they're both very obviously gay, yet Perez outs Aiken at every opportunity (including posting at least one story that was an admitted fake) but gives Mika a pass.

Maybe, just Maybe, if half as much energy were devoted to addressing the real threat posed by the homophobic theocrats running (and wanting to run) our country as is spent hand-wringing about which celebrity "is" or "isn't", things in general might be a little better for real-life homos. I'm with James on this one: why are we even talking about either of these people?

It really isn't fair that Perez is promoting this guy instead of outing him. He pounced on Lance Bass, and COULD have ruined his career (regardless of the fact that coming out has made Lance more famous than ever). If Mika wasn't paying him, he would be drawing cum on his face and writing BOTTOM on his head. It's disgusting and truly shows what a rotten, morally corrupt person Perez is.

CHECK THIS OUT!
It's from Perez's FIRST post on Mika. He outed him way back then:

http://perezhilton.com/topics/listen_to_this/listen_to_this_shining_brighter_than_a_star_20061031.php

Say hello to Mika, our favorite new discovery!!!

Born in Beirut, raised in Paris, and having spent his formative years in London, Mika's music is just as hot as his model looks.

Oh yeah, and it just so happens that he's gay!

Mika's grandiose popera remind us of a lighter and brighter Rufus Wainwright or a modern-day Freddie Mercury.

However you describe it, it's fucking fierce!
