British diving champ Tom Daley is currently participating in a grueling four-day trek, rowing, cycling, running and swimming event from London to Plymouth.
The event is raising money as part of the Hell of a Homecoming for Red Nose Day campaign for the Comic Relief charity organization.
“I’ve never done anything like this before,” Daley revealed in a promo. “I mean, I’ve trained for the Olympics, but I’ve never done any kind of endurance training, let alone swimming in that freezing water. Let me tell you, it’s cold.”
Now in its third day, the Olympic gold medalist has been charting his progress and updating fans via Instagram.
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
“85 miles down, 45 to go!” he posted on his story Wednesday:
Several of his other updates have gotten fans’ attention for other, obvious reasons.
We definitely approve of this thirst-trap-for-a-good-cause campaign:

Hate to break it to you bud, but narcissists don’t do charity events like this. He posts as a way to raise awareness of the event.
Of course as an olympic athlete his only source of personal income is through youtube and things of the like. They only get reimbursed for training expenses and if they win a medal. He is simply trying to make a living.

Lordy, he is a cutie! But the first thing that came to mind was a quote from Jack on Will and Grace: “What you have here is a “Pocket Gay”. That guy was seriously attractive, too.

And I presume you are not ? Sure seems by the comment that you are.

I like the “Treasure Trail” in the speedo pic.

I’m sure he is a good guy , but,One thing about Tom, he needs attention every second of the day…I kinda had enough of his videos when he came out with the “ tell me what I should do” video, where his public decides what he should choose on a menu, and what choices to make every minute of the day,,yikes,,,I mean , he has a definite need of importance..oh well, to each his own,,,

“I’m sure he is a good guy”
He sure seems to be.
“One thing about Tom, he needs attention every second of the day…”
So?
“I kinda had enough of his videos when he came out with the “ tell me what I should do” video”
There is a simple solution to that. Don’t watch his videos. Boom. You’re welcome.

I always wonder which screename is going to come in and attack any LGBTQ famous person for “Needing attention”.
You aren’t subtle.

He is cute, but when is he going to do gay porn? 🙂

Gotta admit, he’s one of only a few guys who can make me gay. At least for a night. Okay, a week. The thirst photos are sexy, but he won me over by crocheting. Breaking gender roles is a major aphrodisiac for me (my girlfriend is a football fan whereas I’d rather watch a chick flick).
But here’s the thing … I just can’t get over the fact that he’s a daddy (in the paternal sense). That puppy face makes me think he’s still a teenager.

such a nice boy.
