Is Wayne Brady gonna have to choke a bitch?

[–] Chozo@artemis.camp 48 points 1 year ago

Only with their enthusiastic consent.

It's always so eye-opening to read about a larger-than-life personality like Brady considering themselves an introvert and being bullied in school. I am glad he got to a point where he is happy and can share his story.

[–] MajorHavoc@lemmy.world 85 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Good for him. And good for lots of other people, probably. But we all kind of figured, right? That man flirts with everyone, with impressive sincerity.

[–] omgarm@feddit.nl 40 points 1 year ago

It's clear he contains too much sexual energy to have a limited focus.

[–] onionbaggage@lemmy.world 29 points 1 year ago

And everyone else is a Wayne Brady sexual. This works out.

[–] oxjox@lemmy.ml 27 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The very first time I saw Brady on tv (circa 2000) I was watching whatever it was with my mom and we both presumed he was gay then and there. It was a little interesting just because there were so few evidently gay people on tv at the time in such prominent roles.

But yeah...

“Bisexual — with an open mind!”
seems about right too.

I think (hope) that hundreds of years from now, most of the human species will achieve this higher form of love and acceptance. It's so silly to not freely love whom you love.

They seem like a lovely family :)

Also... looks like Redditors are starting to flood it here with their uber-insightful commentary.

I thought this was from The Onion.

[–] wesker@lemmy.sdf.org 24 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It's People magazine, so it's close enough.

[–] TheEgoBot@lemmy.world 22 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Jesus Christ this is already just reddit again, any mods gonna enforce rule 1 with this bigoted bullshit in the comments orrrrrrrrr

[–] Thekingoflorda@lemmy.world 54 points 1 year ago (32 children)

We’re doing our best. Wanna help? Report messages that violate our rules.

I know shouldn't, but whenever I hear pansexual, I hear Jay of Jay and Silent Bob screaming "I'll fuck anything that moves!" in my head.

I would never have guessed this, and yet I am also in no way surprised.

I already loved his character in HIMYM (James, Barney/NPH's gay brother) so much because of the trade in sexual orientation between the two actors and their characters. This makes it even better <3

[–] aceshigh@lemmy.world 12 points 1 year ago

good for him for feeling comfortable being authentic in the public eye. i'm still working on uncovering my True self.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (3 children)

Good for him. That said, he is the most low-energy game show host I have ever seen. When my daughter was first born, we didn't have much to do, so we would watch daytime TV and his hosting on Let's Make a Deal is just terrible (if he's still doing it). It sounded like he was bored and didn't want to be there every episode.

Sorry, I had to rant about Wayne Brady for a second.

[–] madcaesar@lemmy.world 41 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Did you just call Wayne Brady a bitch??

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 12 points 1 year ago

No, no choking will be happening.

[–] elbarto777@lemmy.world 23 points 1 year ago (3 children)

I wonder if it's just bad direction? Wayne Brady is one of the funniest people I've seen on TV - but I haven't seen him hosting anything. So it can't be him. It has to be someone directing him.
